Good Times Really Roll in Johnny Rockets

johnny rockets' hamburger & milkshake

This much-hyped American burger place was definitely the "it" place to dine when Johnny Rockets opened its first branch in the Philippines (apparently, its their very first in Asia) in Eastwood Mall around two years ago. It's main "attraction", so to speak, was their servers, including the managers (sometimes the guard, as well!) would suddenly dance in the middle of the diner once Donna Summers started belting her classic song Last Dance! from the jukebox. A quite fresh, interesting concept for a burger place at that time.

A Very Special Christmas Moment w/ Friends in Ye Dang

I've always wanted to try Korean dishes. However, I'm not really in the know-how on which restaurants in the metro serve the best. Until I chanced upon Ang Pinaka's feature of Ang Pinaka-Patok Na International Chibugan, and it listed Ye Dang Korean BBQ Restaurant on the number 2 slot. And its geographic location near Meralco Avenue add more to its charm. I knew right then and there as I saw Rovilson Fernandez on TV relishing his bowl of Dolsot Bibimbop that I have to try this resto.

Skipping Christmas by John Grisham

What occupied you this past Holiday season? I bet a lot of those involved Christmas parties, family gatherings, gift-givings, decorating your Christmas tree, shopping and of course, food. Who could forget about the food? Quezo de Bola, Hamon, fruitcakes, and to the more lucrative, Lechon and Paella. Food has been one of the highlights of my December holidays which I would feature in this blog in time. (If I remember it right, I've been to three or four memorable gatherings this Holiday season with friends). But for now, let me tell you about this wonderful little book that kept me rapt all-throughout the season.

Sleek & Svelte: Nokia 701

Right after my Samsung Corby Pro phone finally bid adieu, I knew that getting a replacement phone is imminent. I still have the LG Lollipop phone however that one also showing signs of its impending demise. So, I finally coaxed my Nanay to allow me to buy a new phone.

I'm hooked on Big Daddy's Chicken Chops

Big Daddy's Chicken Chop

I've always wanted to try Big Daddy's Chicken ever since I saw Jin Perez of Jin Loves To Eat's post about this famous crispy chicken chop from Taiwan. I initially thought their stall is only located in SM Mall Of Asia. However, when I learned that they do have a stall near my place, which is in Greenhills Theatre Mall, it was an understatement if I tell you that I was gleeful about it. I was ecstatic to no avail that on the evening when I learned of its nearer location, I set out plans to go here as soon as my work is done the following day.
