It was my cousin’s last day in Manila. He was lucky I saw an ad in the newspaper about C2 Classic Cuisine the night before or else I wouldn’t have thought of bringing him there for lunch. Too bad his sister left a few hours before and wasn’t able to join us for a lastContinue reading “Lunch at C2 Classic Cuisine”

Lunch at Bangus
Whenever my friends or relatives come home from the United States they always want to eat Filipino food. I usually bring them to Fely J or Abe. I can’t think of other good Filipino restaurants until I remembered Bangus. Bangus has been open for 25 years. I remember when they first opened at Crossroad ArcadeContinue reading “Lunch at Bangus”
Dinner at Chef’s Table by Chef Bruce Lim
Thanks to Michelle for inviting me to join her group to have dinner at Chef’s Table. I’ve always wanted to try the food at this private kitchen run by Chef Bruce Lim, a popular Filipino Chinese chef who has his own tv show, Tablescapes on the Asian Food Channel. The well lighted rooftop garden wasContinue reading “Dinner at Chef’s Table by Chef Bruce Lim”
Goodburgers Chicken Burger
I love burgers and I’m always on the lookout for good burgers. When I saw Goodburgers in a more convenient location in Greenhills I decided to give it a try again. The last time I ate their chicken burger was years ago. What makes Goodburgers different is they sell only chicken and veggie burgers. GoodburgersContinue reading “Goodburgers Chicken Burger”
Dinner at La Nuova Pasteleria
La Nuova has been open since 1978 but it was my first time to eat there a few weeks ago. I don’t know how this restaurant escaped my radar all these years. Maybe all my friends assumed I’ve already eaten there. In Manila, it’s always the new restaurants that people frequent. For a restaurant inContinue reading “Dinner at La Nuova Pasteleria”

Dinner at Korea Garden Restaurant
I’m still on a Korean food roll so I suggested we eat at Korea Garden restaurant, one of the oldest and most well loved Korean restaurants in Manila.

Shakey’s Angus Steakhouse Pizza
It was a lazy Sunday afternoon and the most exciting part of the day was waiting for news on the Pacquaio-Cotto fight in Las Vegas. After checking live blogs online for blow by blow accounts of the fight, I learnt that Manny Pacquiao won by a technical knock-out on round 12. Yehey! Congratulations to theContinue reading “Shakey’s Angus Steakhouse Pizza”
Birthday Dinner at Je Suis Gourmand
I was recently invited to celebrate the birthday of a good friend at Je Suis Gourmand in the Fort. We started with our favorite salad which wasn’t on the menu. They have the best seared foie gras in Manila. Make sure to ask for the sauce on the side. They have a tendency of drowningContinue reading “Birthday Dinner at Je Suis Gourmand”
Lunch at California Pizza Kitchen
It’s really hard to be in several homecoming committees. There are so many meetings and it’s really hard work. All we do is work, work, work. But I’ll do anything to serve my batchmates and help make our upcoming homecoming a big success. I’ll even work during lunch at CPK. 😉 The Original BBQ ChickenContinue reading “Lunch at California Pizza Kitchen”
