Syempre may welcome post!

Hello mga teh! Good morning, good afternoon and good evening to all. Thank you. (Gay beauty queen? JK)

Welcome to my travel and lifestyle blog, Tara, Teh (In English: Let's go, sis! -- Naks, assumerang may foreigner reader). I have always been fascinated with travel and lifestyle ever since grade school thanks to my over-exposure to cable TV, particularly with The Lifestyle Channel. That's more than more than a decade ago! And gladly, after graduating with a degree on AB Journalism in the University of Santo Tomas (Go Uste!) I eventually landed in an international travel and lifestyle magazine as its Feature Editor. I've  been literally going places lately, in and outside my working hours, celebrating my youth and the leftovers of my payslip.

Expect a plethora of personal reviews on restaurants, hotels, resorts, spas, and other bunch of things in this blog. For teaser's sake, I vow to make my reviews on Casa Roces Restaurant, Cyma Greek Restaurant, Resorts World Manila's Passion and Noodleworks restos, Toast Box, La Tienda Spanish Restaurant, Buffalo Wild Chicken Wings, and many, many more. (Bakit puro pagkain? Read: Why you so gluttonous??)

So let's lafang, chill, beautify, and gala together--at least virtually! Share with me your thoughts, okay? ;)


Love lots,

Dane

Passion Restaurant - Resorts World Manila

Better late than never! Ewan ko ba bakit inabot ng ilang buwan bago ako ganahang isulat to. Haha. But anyhow, let's go straight to the details: Le family ordered the package that's good for six people which was around P4,000 (I think). Ang susunod na mas maliit na package ay good for four, which is around P2,500? Please correct me if I'm all wrong kasi anong petcha na teh. Haha. Limot ko na, lalo na pag digits lol. Credits to my former boss for giving all of us under his team GCs Overall, kebs lang lasa. But when I say kebs, it signifies something not so "wow"-ish. Anyway, here are the photos from le bf's camera. Can't remember which one I shot, pero pag maganda, sa kanya yun for sure. Haha. Pag chakabels, mine. Peanuts: Libre ata ito. Or well, siguro naman sa P4,000 na presyo libre na ito. Haha. Labo. Pero ayun, kung may pinaka na-enjoy man ako, ito yun. Sweet sya. Di ko alam why, di ko tinanong basta masarap. At refillable. Haha ang babaw. 

TonTon Massage at The Fort

After much recommendation from le boyfriend, we finally got to try TonTon Authentic Thai Massage together at The Fort. It's a very short walk from my office in BGC. Despite its high end location, the price is surprisingly affordable. The 1-hr whole body massage is at P350 and you could choose to have back or foot massage only for the same duration and price. That's usually the discounted price for those not-so-popular massage havens in online coupon sites already, and yet it's just TonTon's original rate. Photos from their official FB   (The entire area was so dark that it would make no sense to take photos from my phone) Just like in another Thai massage parlor in Makati called Nuat Thai (P250 per hour), the intro of the whole session was a couple of minutes spent in soaking feet in warm water. Sabi ni boyfriend it might contain something else aside from water since iba yung dulas na pakiramdam once dried na ang feet. Anyway, after that, the massage starts.

Beijing Foot Spa - Greenhills

So I'm off to another blog post this Easter! This time, though I've vowed on a teaser yesterday to write 3 restos, let me divert to another spa haven this time in Greenhills, San Juan. I'm talking about Beijing Foot Spa, which is right in front of Mercury Drug in GH and a stone's throw away from G Strip and the GH mall parking lot. Photo from Greenhills.com This was a random spa pick since le boypren and I went to Tiendesitas for some window-puppy-shopping (btw, most of them look sickly and sad). Thanks to the free shuttle from Tien to GH, we got our feet on another adventure. We didn't intend to have a foot massage pero the walk we had in Tien and some strolling in GH for Sigma lenses were both exhausting! We were so tired, siguro dahil na rin sa init ng panahon, so I said na if we could find a TonTon Thai Massage branch somewhere in GH, we would go. Pero we had no more energy left to explore the place even further. We ended up in this posh-looking spa which w
