Tara, Teh!

About a month ago when I first had my dose of Yakimix at Greenbelt, Makati during our <3 anibersari. Dumating kami sa resto 7pm or earlier and madali kaming naikuha ni ate attendant ng table with couch. After all, I said, it was a Tuesday and five days past the payday so I was on the assumption na konti lang ang kalaban sa tempura. Chos. After gathering my foodang first my first round, napansin ko na may mga waiting customers na agad and ang dami na nila. To the point na parang ubos na yung seats sa waiting area. To my surprise, napupuno pala ang Yakimix on an ordinary day, kahit na pwede kang mag-cartweel sa Greenbelt sa konti ng tao. Anyway, ika nga ni @ActuallyNPH (Neil Patrick Harris), LET THE FOOD PORN COMMENCE. Charot. My plate. Hindi ako nahihiya. LOL Le boypren's Luto-lutuan adult version Akin lang silang lahat. Leboypren can't take sweets Bottomline: It was a nice experience. Sympre anibersari celebration. But before coming back to Yakimix, I'...

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...

This experience is nearing its anniversary so I have to dig deeper in le memory. I got the services due to again, a GC from le former boss RJ as my welcome pack in the magazine where I was features editor. The GC was good for P5,000 worth of services in Zen Institute which is tumbling-away from my previous office in The Fort. It's a bit hard to notice since it's right in the middle of a gasoline station (Shell) which is very unassuming. Akalain mong may tulad ng Zen Institute somewhere there. This Shell I'm talking about is across St. Lukes Med Center in Taguig. In places like these (spa, facial clinics, etc), I am reluctant to take photos. I don't think I'm the only who thinks that going to these places is considered a private thingy for many. So, no official photos from yours truly. This was my first time to have a Diamond Peel evur. Akala ko kung anong meron sa treatment na itey. Bakit may ginugulong lang na pen-like electric chever sa mukha ko which was maki...

Okay, let me pressure myself by making this promise: I am to blog about Sentro Restaurant and Chateau in Greenbelt and Buddy's in Timog really SOON! And Cyma in Greenbelt and Shang! (Hopefully in Rob Ermita too). Gosh, so kailangan ko talaga ng public announcement para seryosohin to, lol. :) Photos from google search PA LANG. Have their pics na but again, lazy me. Thanks to fellow random bloggers for le pics ;) Grabe I have so much in my list. This is bad. And teka, puro restaurants! :(

Ode to Quezon How does dining like a president sound to you? When I first learned that I’m about to experience such a unique food trip, it seemed that my taste buds couldn’t wait a day more.  Forget the continental breakfast.  I’m about to have a presidential breakfast. It all started with a simple online search that led me to the Facebook page of the Malacañang Food and Heritage Tours.   As the name suggests, the tour package consists of a guided tour inside the walls of the Philippines’ presidential residence as well as a gastronomic delight where one would be served the favorite breakfast meals of some of the past and current presidents of the country.  The package offers a one-of-a-kind dining experience at the posh Casa Roces Restaurant that stands just across the former Malacañang Press Office Building at the corner of JP Laurel and Aguado Streets. One can choose from the following breakfast sets:  Ilocandia Flair, Ilustrado Comfort...
