Birthday Food Binging

Recently celebrated my birthday and as expected, I embarked in stuffing myself with so much food without a twinge of regret, of course. 

Familiar Favorites

You might say that these two restaurants are my fail safe options as I am guaranteed never to have a bad meal here. 

One Fine Weekend

 

After a grueling work week, I always yearn for a relaxing weekend. Whether to eat out, catch up on the tons of books that I've lined up to read or surf the world wide web until the wee hours of the morning. That's why when my colleagues at work planned to have a sort of tour of Manila, I jumped right in readily as I haven't been to Manila that often.

Some New & Under The Radar Eats

It's been a while, I know. I'm afraid that my blogging skills are now a little bit rusty. But I've been up and about recently and I want to share with you all how that have been. 

A Brand New Book Published Online & Other Ongoing Writing Commitments

I've always shy writing horror. That statement is a bit of antithesis since I do read so much of this dark side of the fantastic genre. I've read countless Stephen King books, with a sprinkling of Dean Koontz, Clive Barker, Peter Straub, Bentley Little and other horrormeisters. However, whenever I tried to sit down and write a horror story, it doesn't always turn out right. It either turns out to be too cheesy and off-kilter that I have to abandon writing it altogether.

Why On Wattpad

I haven't been writing for ages it seems. And the new interface of Blogspot threw me off a little. I don't have any plans of putting out a blog since the pandemic and the nationwide quarantine has started. Because of the drastic changes brought about by the Coronavirus, my life and my creative inspirations seemingly has been off tangent and been swerving aimlessly.

Down The Rabbit Hole at Burrow Café

food and menu

I've been meaning to visit Burrow Cafe in Antipolo but I'm not too privy of its location in Beverly Hills. So I finally contacted a good friend of mine, Kat (a fellow blogger and a long-time resident of Cogeo) if she would like to join me to hunt this cafe down. 

Food Tripping In Pasig

food at Cafe de Ese

I've been away yet again from my online diary. Too many distractions. Nowadays, I'm so caught up on my goal to complete reading at least 30 books this year (I've already read 20 books so far, if you're interested to know) that my commitment to update this blog has took a backseat. Most of my idle time was spent either on reading or watching channels on YouTube that talk about books. But enough of that for now because I wanted to share to you some great finds here in Pasig that you might want to check out.

Julesy At 39

Beer Cake

I subscribed to the adage that turning a year older is a milestone. That's why I always plan ahead whenever my birthday is imminent because you'll never know what will happen the next day. Yes, morbid as that may sound but it's true.

Up And About Just To Get Good Eats

food at Filio

I've been out and about lately for the sole purpose of devouring some delicious grubs. 

Recent Eats

food at St Louis

It's been two weekends of wonderful eating that I have to document it on my online diary. :)

My Fat Belly Is So Happy

Buttermilk Fried Chicken w/ Ube Waffle in Salted Egg Sauce

I never thought that dining in this quite unassuming cafe would prompt me to go back to blogging.

Just want to share some of the most enjoyable recent eats I've had because a long overdue post is in the offing and I felt I've been in this blog posting slump for so long I just need to put a stop to it. =)

A Year To Be Thankful

I recently celebrated my birthday. And I realized that I do have a lot to be thankful for. In terms of how God blessed me and how He guided me through my ups and lows is enough for me to feel grateful. Of course, needless to say, my birthday will not go by without me having a little celebration and surrounding myself with good food.

Coffee Shops Round-Up: Hits & Misses

I've been to quite a few cafes and coffee shops recently that rekindled the urge for me to log back in to my online diary and tell you some interesting (hopefully) insights about it.

'Tis The Season For Some Ice Cream

This Holiday Season, a dessert cafe that offers icy sweets with a touch of whimsical and a Filipino-inspired ice cream treat prompted me to write anew.

Sarsa-rrific!

Was invited by a friend to try Sarsa. I couldn't pass it up. Been hearing a lot of good things with this restaurant and I was pretty excited to experience it firsthand.

Angel & Fire

cakes at Angel's Kitchen

I was in Greenhills one time scouting for a trade paperback of a Stephen King novel at a Fully Booked branch there when the siren song of my stomach grumbling made me decide to drop by Angel's Kitchen for a quick bite. 

Ramen, Noodle Soup & Other Comforting Rainy Food

Bulalo Soup at Sabao (Oh, how I wish they re-open soon!)

Rainy season calls for something piping hot to slurp and savor. And here are some of the comforting food I do crave especially when the weather is dreary and cold.
