Yes, I am still one of the great… procrastinators, that is. Haha! You see, my friends and I had this dinner a week ago, last weekend to be exact. We went to Red Ribbon at SM City and had a little pseudo payday dinner there. I have always been a fan of this shop because [...]

Last month, a friend’s internationally popular blog (*wink wink) reached a million in stats. Happy Million Hits, MCPB! Yay! And because we are such good friends, we persuaded him to commemorate the event with a celebratory dinner. Yes, Leylan of My Cebu Photo Blog got the much awaited millionth visit from fans. I’m not kidding, [...]

It is always nice to revisit places you’ve been to, especially if they serve delicious Italian food. Yes, Vet, Ley, and I went and had dinner at the new Roma Mia at The Terraces – Ayala. I had some mighty craving for Italian food after our annual company outing yesterday and since it was my [...]

My officemates and I decided to go on a trip and spend a week of our hard won holiday vacation in Luzon last month. We had a great time; despite the sore feet, hunger-inducing ticket hunting, and touchy tempers. From Cebu, we landed in Metro Manila, took a bus to Baguio to get a bus [...]

A late post…all right, a really late post. This dinner happened months ago. A friend invited us “bloggers” to a free dinner at a newly revised local restaurant located at the mall for some free advertising for the said restaurant. However, due to some things I would rather not mention here, this plan was scratched [...]

Ohayoo!
I just stumbled on this article when I was checking some bit of world news this morning. It made me smile. All right, that might not mean much because it actually does not take much to make me smile. Still, the article mentions something about good food that I totally agree with and I want [...]

This was supposedly our payday dinner, a re-instatement that never really quite measured up to what I thought it would be. Cel, Jenny, Rhea, and I went to SM before Cel and I were to meet Yam at Outpost. I went to SM for a book while the other three gals went there to withdraw [...]

“Don’t burn any bridges,” a superior once told me that this was one of our benevolent boss’ mottoes. And this statement was what came to my mind when I came back to this little restaurant in a little area near the provincial capitol. Its name is Moon Cafe.

Last year in September (sounds like a line from a song…LOL!) Vet, Ley, and I went on one of our “No Holds Barred I-don’t-care-if-we-end-up-broke-for-the-rest-of-the-month” meals. (Whew!) At first we declared we should try saving, then we opted to change that declaration to “We’ll start saving next month nalang.” Hahahaha!
When we arrived at The Parklane Hotel, [...]
