I brought my aunt and uncle who were from Texas and was visiting Manila to have lunch at Angel’s Kitchen. I knew they would enjoy the cozy restaurant and the comfort food they served. My aunt loved the simple and charming decor. Melba toast and chicken liver pate were given even before we ordered. TheyContinue reading “Lunch at Angel’s Kitchen”

Dinner at Kashmir
There are several Indian restaurants in Manila and Kashmir is the oldest one. It’s been around since 1976 and that can be considered a miracle in Manila’s fickle restaurant scene. It’s also unbelievable that it’s the first time for many of us to eat there that night. Good thing Deb had been going to KashmirContinue reading “Dinner at Kashmir”
NY Pizza
Once in a while I crave for pizza. I’m lying. I always crave for pizza. But I seldom give in to my craving since it’s bad, bad, bad for me. Every time I go to Nail Loft in J. Abad Santos I look across the street and gaze longingly at NY Pizza then turn leftContinue reading “NY Pizza”
Dinner at Kaya Korean Restaurant
‘m determined to find the best Korean restaurant in Manila. I’ve already featured several and now it’s Kaya’s turn. We ate at their branch at Jupiter street in Makati.

But I’m always eager to try a new restaurant so I wentContinue reading “Jenny’s birthday at Restaurant CiÇou”
Dessert at UCC Park Cafe
Our lunch at Lili Cantonese restaurant didn’t include coffee or dessert and we must have that to complete our meal. From Malate we headed to The Fort to UCC Park Cafe to satisfy our need for caffeine and sugar. They had all sorts of Japanese coffee for sale at the entrance. I love the cakesContinue reading “Dessert at UCC Park Cafe”
Dim sum lunch at Lili, Hyatt Hotel
It all started with Janet’s email – “Girls do you want to try the dim sum at Lili? They have a promo that’s ending soon.” Naturally the replies were fast and furious. And within a few days of the email we went to Lili for lunch. The promotion was “All you can eat dim sum”Continue reading “Dim sum lunch at Lili, Hyatt Hotel”
Sugarhouse cakes
I believe the best cakes are found in Manila. The choices from numerous cake shops and home bakers are endless and the majority are very good and affordable. I’m not impressed with the cakes sold in Hong Kong and the USA. I’m sure there are very good cakes there but they cost double or tripleContinue reading “Sugarhouse cakes”
Lunch at Mesa, Filipino Moderne
Rochelle and I took our balikbayan friend, Ariel to lunch at Mesa Filipino Moderne in Greenbelt 5. I suggested this restaurant because I read a lot of good and raving reviews from other bloggers. I’m always on the look out for good Filipino restaurants to bring friends from abroad. Mesa was quite full on a weekdayContinue reading “Lunch at Mesa, Filipino Moderne”
