Peanut butter lovers in Manila rejoice! There’s a new cake in town that’s calling out to you, “eat me, eat me!” It’s quite difficult to find good peanut butter desserts in Manila. The only one I’ve enjoyed before this cake is Wildflour’s peanut butter banana cream pie. It’s much easier to find matcha flavored desserts. I’veContinue reading “The Noodle Bakes – Garth Vader”

Yes another ramen restaurant has joined the ramen craze in Manila. Even though I’ve often said I’m not a big ramen fan I decided to try Kichitora at SM Megamall just for my dear readers.

De Original Jamaican Pattie Shop
I think I did more eating than shopping when I was in SM Megamall last December doing Christmas shopping for my godchildren.

Tinned egg rolls, cookies,Continue reading “Starbucks Taipei”
Donut Love with J.CO Donuts
I was going to start my diet again yesterday and not cheat anymore. I needed to lose the weight I’ve gained from my trip to the USA and Hong Kong Disneyland and many other mini vacations.
