BEST MILK TEA ALERT! Presotea Serves You Freshly Brewed Tea Each Time
I am a self-confessed milk tea addict. It’s something my taste-buds crave every time I finish a meal or when I need an instant oxytocin boost. Yes, to the point I write milk tea reviews and do articles like: Best Milk Tea in Metro Manila Why are Filipinos Addicted to Milk Tea? But don’t get me wrong. Despite my over-enthusiasm over these sugar-filled drinks, I don’t settle for just any milk tea. I still want to savor the tea taste in the sea of boba. That’s why when I heard Presotea finally arrived in the Philippines my caffeine-dependent heart beat faster than it should. HAHA! Here’s why. What Makes Presotea Special? With the myriad of milk…

PHOTO DIARY: Mama and Baba Foodtrip Adventures
Time flies so fast and our babies don’t stay young forever. I’m grateful to be a work-at-home mom. Ever since I left my corporate work, I have more time to bond with my kid. While he is still a kid. Enjoy the company of one another. One of our favorite bonding moments is what we call Mama and Baba Adventures. It’s when the 2 of us go out together anywhere. It can be a foodpark, just inside the mall, museums, cinema. ANYWHERE as long as we’re together and having fun. I got to compile a lot of photos in my phone that I just upload on my facebook albums. I want to cherish the story…

My Salad Stop Review and Favorites!
I don’t like eating vegetables. How about you? I’m like the equivalent of a vegan-opposite until one fateful day in Salad Stop. This is NOT SPONSORED in any way. Well, I do eat my share of veggies occasionally. Let me enumerate the dishes palatable to my tastes: Ginisang Munggo Ginisang Ampalaya Pinakbet (I only eat the kalabasa) Caesar Salad Cabbage with sesame seed mayo Okay I’m trying to think of more but I couldn’t.. LOL Maybe because my family didn’t get me used to eating them in the first place. Not so sure if this is a sign of aging but a few weeks ago my taste buds weren’t happy with eating meat anymore.…

Gardenia Pocket Sandwich – Kids Baon Made Easy and Yummy
I’m so glad Gardenia made a pocket full of fun, filling treats for kids because I have a confession to make. I am not the ideal mother. Why? Because I don’t get to prepare or cook meals for my son every single day. With an erratic schedule, baon preparation is a chore. I have another confession. With those days that don’t cook for Geof, you know what I pack him for lunch? JUNK FOOD. 🙁 Last weekend, Geof and I were invited to a super fun launch of Gardenia Pocket Sandwich. Made with two slices of soft and luscious white bread, Pocket Sandwich has no edges (Geof hates EDGES!) and is perfectly sealed, making it a convenient…

Best Niku Udon in Metro Manila – You’ll Be Surprised!
It takes a few visits to a certain restaurant or food joint before I get pumped up to write an article. Believe it or not. The best tasting Niku Udon I have ever tried so far will only cost you 150 pesos. Yes! If you’ve been following me on my social media accounts, you’ll notice how much of a Japanese food lover I am.I explore different places from cheap to expensive. I also get obsessed on a certain food for months (part of being bipolar) I have tried Niku Udon from the likes of Nadai Fujisoba (very popular), Yayoi Teishoku, and Izakaya Kikufuji. Their Udon ranges from 350 pesos above. They’re quite good,…

Yayoi Japanese Teishoku Restaurant Review – SM Megamall
Hello guys! As of the time writing this, my website is down due to my hosting server’s negligence. It has been down for 3 days now which is costing me a lot of unnecessary stress. So instead of brooding that “I can’t blog”, I decided to write the blog post the old school way. Via notepad. Notepad never fails me. It’s fast and does it’s job well, write texts, keep texts. Today, I’ll be sharing with you my Yayoi Japanese Teishoku Restaurant Review (pronounced as Ya-Yoy). It comes as no surprise that when ranking cuisines my favorites would be: 1. Filipino 2. Japanese 3. American 4. Korean 5. European (broad I know) What I love…

Stella Artois 9 Step Ritual – How to Pour a Beer
As enjoyable as it is to drink a bottle of ice cold beer straight from the bottle, beer enthusiasts are now turning their attention to the idea of perfectly and properly poured beer. Last February 25, Stella Artois introduce the Stella Draught Masters – a competition of both expert bartenders and Stella Artois fans to try their hand at Stella Artois’ time-honoured 9-step pouring ritual. Traditionally, Belgian beers are served in unique glasses designed to draw out the flavor and accentuate the profile of a particular brew. For Stella Artois, that glass is the Chalice. And a classic 9-Step pouring ritual involving this Chalice will create the perfect drinking experience for beer drinkers…

Food Review: Taisho Ramen at Light Mall
I wouldn’t have dined in this place if it weren’t for my bus overheating and leaving us to evaporate under the heat of EDSA. Never again shall I ride a bus going to-from Lipa with JAC liner. They always break down. Well I was starving and good thing a mall is nearby. The Light Mall by SM along Edsa Pioneer. Gah I heard of Taisho Ramen from my cousin and she told me it’s one of the best she’s tried so I had to taste for myself. I forgot to take a photo of the menu because my mind was to occupied to feasting right away. But their regular ramen price ranges from…

Experience: Le Petite Souffle at Century City Mall Makati
This is the highest ranking restaurant on Zomato that’s located in Century City Mall. I’m a closet zomato-freak and checkout the reviews and ratings there first before trying out a new place to eat. Le Petit Souffle is a casual dining restaurant that serves French-Japanese fusion cuisine. Perfect timing that my friends PhyPhy (Phylicia Marie of phyliciamarie.com) and Hana-bebe (Hana of dollhana.com) are starving after an event where L’Oreal Philippines launches their first Filipina brand ambassadors. Since we’re not alta de siodad aka high society. We’re not pretentious either LOL so we opted for the budgetarian lunch set menu that costs only 450php. This includes the salad, main course, and dessert. You know…
