My friend Ariel lives in San Francisco, a city with so many, many good pizzas. He’s the one who brought me to Pizzeria Delfina which I really enjoyed. I wanted him to try Chef Chris’ creation formerly known as panizza since I know think there’s nothing like that in the US yet. This was myContinue reading “My Kitchen by Chef Chris”

Birthday Treat at Brasserie CiÇou
My friends Kathy and Jenny treated us for their birthday at Brasserie CiÇou in Greenhills. Since I enjoyed my last meal there I was eager to try something new. When you eat at CiÇou make sure you go there hungry since I guarantee you will gorge on their hot crusty rolls which are probably the best freeContinue reading “Birthday Treat at Brasserie CiÇou”
Lunch at Lolo Dad’s Cafe
Lolo Dad’s in Manila has been open since the year 2000 and I’ve been wanting to try it for a long time. I finally got the chance recently when I brought my friend Ariel there for lunch. The dining area wasn’t very big but it was quite cozy. I was very impressed with the oven,Continue reading “Lunch at Lolo Dad’s Cafe”
Breakfast at Antonio’s
Whenever I go to San Francisco my friend Ariel takes me to all the best restaurants in the city. When he comes to Manila it’s my turn to treat him. His only request this time was to eat at Antonio’s since he enjoyed it so much the last time he ate there. I tried callingContinue reading “Breakfast at Antonio’s”
Lunch at Pino Resto Bar
I’m always on the lookout for good Filipino restaurants in Manila to bring balikbayans to. I’ve read about Pino but I didn’t feel like going to their original branch in Quezon City. I was glad they opened a new branch in Jupiter St. in Makati. The restaurant was next to Mangetsu. My friend Ariel cameContinue reading “Lunch at Pino Resto Bar”
Dinner at Hanobe Asian Cuisine
Once a year I meet with my business partners in our company called Swisher. This year we ate at Hanobe Asian Cuisine at Greenhills Town Center. It was my first time to go to Greenhills Town Center. I was surprised how spacious it was and there were lots of parking spaces. From the outside itContinue reading “Dinner at Hanobe Asian Cuisine”
Subspace Coffee House
Subspace Coffee House has been on my list of ‘must try’ places and silly me I never noticed that it was just next door to where my store was. It was only a minute walk away! Since I had a very unsatisfactory and sad lunch at Jacob’s Shawarma I decided to console myself with coffeeContinue reading “Subspace Coffee House”
Jacob’s Shawarma & Kebab
My friend Jenny told me about Jacob’s Shawarma since she knew how much I love shawarma and it was just a few minutes walk from my store. Is he Jacob? He reminds me of Ben Affleck and Chris O’Donnell. Amazing that they’re open 24 hours. A strong aroma of spices assaulted my senses I soonContinue reading “Jacob’s Shawarma & Kebab”
Makimono Obsession at Omakase
Other than my single trip to Haru all my sushi obsession for two weeks was supplied by Omakase in Greenhills. I would take out a few orders of sushi rolls and eat it for lunch and dinner. I have yet to appreciate the joy of eating sashimi or raw fish and I’m taking baby stepsContinue reading “Makimono Obsession at Omakase”
Lunch at Haru Sushi Bar & Restaurant
Lately I’ve been craving sushi a lot. I just want to eat it everyday. Since I pass by Haru Sushi Bar & Restaurant in Kapitolyo, Pasig at least once a week I went there to sate my sushi hunger. I arrived there just before 2:00 pm and was in luck that they were still open.Continue reading “Lunch at Haru Sushi Bar & Restaurant”
