I still have a lot reviews from restaurants in the US, Hong Kong and Manila but I had to share the restaurant we ate in yesterday because it was a very good discovery. Chris wanted to treat us for her birthday and she asked me if I could suggest a place. I just saw theContinue reading “Dinner at Borough, The Podium Mall”

Lunch at Bob Evans
I don’t eat gourmet food all the time. More often than not I’m quite happy with good old American comfort food. Next to pizza and burgers my favorites include flaky biscuits and chicken pot pie. There are several nationwide family chain restaurants in the US like Chili’s, Applebees, Denny’s and many more. They all serveContinue reading “Lunch at Bob Evans”

The best thing I ever ate in the USA – Central Michel Richard
Yes this lovely fried beauty was the best thing I ever ate on my recent 7 week US vacation where I ate my way from the west to the east coast. The night before my trip to the museum I did some research on Yelp on where I could walk to for lunch. One ofContinue reading “The best thing I ever ate in the USA – Central Michel Richard”
Dinner from Wegmans Supermarket
It was another busy day for my cousin La. She had to ferry her kids from piano class to gymnastics to the dentist and many more. She didn’t have time to prepare dinner so before driving all around town she dropped me off at Wegmans supermarket and tasked me with buying our dinner. Wegmans isContinue reading “Dinner from Wegmans Supermarket”
Lunch at Coastal Flats
I’m not much of a seafood eater. I like it enough but it’s not my first choice when I eat out. That’s ironic since seafood is affordable and bountiful in the Philippines. My favorite seafood is lobster but I hardly see it in the menus in Manila because it’s very expensive. I was in TysonsContinue reading “Lunch at Coastal Flats”
Breakfast at The Original Pancake House
Whenever I go to Virginia to visit my 2 cousins they know my usual request is to eat at The Original Pancake House. I first tried The Original Pancake House in Chicago and Dallas. I’m so glad that Virginia has 1 branch and it’s near my cousin Sharon’s place. We usually go on weekend morningsContinue reading “Breakfast at The Original Pancake House”
Trapper’s Smokehouse at Busch Gardens
There were several dining options at Busch Gardens. There was a buffet, Irish fare, British pub, Italian choices and many more. What lured us to Trapper’s Smokehouse was the wonderful aroma of smoked meats cooking right in front of the restaurant. The food was laid out cafeteria style and there were more than 2 linesContinue reading “Trapper’s Smokehouse at Busch Gardens”
Lunch at Willie’s Smoked Carolina BBQ
Summer in the USA means road trip! It was the kids’ first weekend summer break and we went to Virginia Beach for the weekend. After a couple of hours on the road we started to look for a place to eat lunch. We passed the usual McDonalds, Burger King, Pizza Hut and the usual fastContinue reading “Lunch at Willie’s Smoked Carolina BBQ”
Dinner at Jody Maroni’s Sausage Sandwiches
It was my last day in San Francisco. It was a short trip that lasted 3 nights and 3 days. In a span of 3 short days I was able to try a wide variety of food thanks to Ariel and Jeanne who planned all of my meals to the last detail. Despite the brevityContinue reading “Dinner at Jody Maroni’s Sausage Sandwiches”
