Snack time @ Johnny Rockets, Eastwood

It was my first time to eat at Johnny Rockets. The foods that we ordered were good especially the milkshakes. I also enjoyed watching the servers and staffs dancing, it was so entertaining! I only got a few photos because I was so busy discussing things with my  coordinator.

Meet Valencia - My Beabi Bag Organizer

This is my 1st bag organizer from Beabi. I bought it for Php 345 at Trinoma Mall. The Valencia Bag has 13 compartments, light weight and padded. There are variety of colors to choose from but I had mine in Purple. 

Mini Tacos from Guac Truck

My lunch baon is a homemade spaghetti. However, I felt that it was not enough for me. So I decided to buy a side dish and I had chosen to try the Guac truck located at the nearby parking lot in BGC. I ordered for GuacShells (Php50) but it is out of stock. Because of that, I opted for the Mini Tacos which costs Php80.

Esprit Bag

I want this Esprit bag  as a birthday gift for myself. I asked a favor to my teammate,"Reynard", to buy me one in London. I promise to pay him when he get back here in Manila. This bag costs 39.99 pounds. I like this bag simply because it is cute and my birthday is near na.. this coming Friday.. a very good excuse! ahahaha!  ~.~

Boracay Day 3

Our last day at Boracay. The team woke up early to swim at Station 1, bought pasalubongs and some went off to try the buggy cars. I and Joonroe went to Cafe del Sol to try the famous cheesecake. Another reason is nagpaiwan ako kasi I don't know how to drive.. so kumain na lng ako and swim.. ahahahha!

"Sol".. are we related? kinda' long lost relative???

Boracay Day 2

On our 2nd day. We went to station 1 to visit the famous Grotto.

Boracay Day1

My first time to visit Boracay! Thanks to my team for organizing this outing. We stayed at La Carmela Resort Boracay at Station 2. They offer competitive packages for travellers. I was not  satisfied with their service when we checked-in.. we waited for more than an hour before we got the keys.

Chiffon Cake Slice

My baon for snack.. Chiffon Cake from Goldilocks. This is one of my favorites.. di nakakasawa. Nomnomnom! ^_^

Someone's Birthday Today

I was supposed to search for something in the net so I type in the address bar "http://www.google.com.ph"..  then I saw this:

Happy 13th Birthday Google!

Starbucks' Cinnamon Swirl

Starbucks' Cinnamon Swirl.. too sweet for my tooth.

Ying Ying's Asado Siopao

Which taste better Asado or Bola-bola Siopao?


For me, Asado is better than Bola-bola Siopao. I'm sharing with you one of the restos that serve yummy siopaos.. Ying Ying Tea House! 

A Sweet Treat from Alreen

My former teammate, Alreen, gave the team a sweet treat from Caramia Gelateria. 
Sorry, I forgot to ask the name of the cake.

My quick fave snacks at The Sandwich Guy

1. The Pesto Pasta - Php75. Whenever I order this, I always tell the server to lessen the amount of Olive oil and put a little more of peanuts. Yumyum!

Kami'y nabusog sa luto ni Mang Dencio

Another sumptuous lunch with my teammates at Dencio's Restaurant at Venice Piazza.  

Komoro Soba at SM Megamall

Another Japanese dining experience at Komoro Soba. What I like with this resto is the foods are yummy and pocket friendly in a way. 

ebi ramen

Pizza Hut: Php99 meals

One of my favorite pizza parlor in our country. I'm really glad that they still offer the Php99 meal. So sulit!

Cream of mushroom

Little Asia at Venice Piazza

My new favorite restaurant near my workplace. The ambiance is homey with sophisticated oriental interiors. The staffs are very accommodating and friendly. The foods are great! Especially the Japanese Tofu and Kung Pao Chicken.. yumyum! However, the foods are pricey for an ordinary employee like me. Overall, it's one of the must try restaurants at Venice Piazza in McKinley Hills.

Kopi Roti's Coffee Bun

Finally, I had tasted Kopi Roti's coffee bun. It's a bit oily when it was served to me but the taste is good and the price is ok for Php50. However, for me, Roti Mum's coffee bun is much better and creamier.

Dinner @ Hongkong Emperor Seafood Restaurant, MOA

It was a rainy Sunday evening date with my bf.  We dined at Hongkong Emperor Seafood restaurant that was our first time to try their food.   

Dinner at Super Bowl of China after Krizzia's Mall tour

After a long walk and strolling from Market Market, Serendra, Bonifacio Hi-Street, The Fort, Glorietta 5, Glorietta 4, Landmark and Greenbelt. We had a chance to rest our feet and relax our body and indulge at Super Bowl of China located at Glorietta 4. The place ambiance is warm and cozy. The servers were very cheerful and accommodating, though their service is a bit slow.

Catcat and Krizzia with their drinks - Red Iced tea and Black Gulaman

 

Lars turned 5 in Manila

My company turned 5, and they gave free donuts and ice cream to all employees.. Yey!

Pasalubong for the Kids

I bought a 1 box of Ice Candy (Fla-vor-ice)  for the kids. There were so happy at that time. I'm very glad they liked it.

Catcat and the fla-vor-ice

Jajan, goofy over the Ice candy box

John Lloyd's Pizza

One Saturday, when me and Catcat went to Market Market to pay bills. She stopped and told me she wanted to eat pizza. I asked her in what store? She answered back - John Lloyd's pizza.  So we  went and bought a Greenwich Pizza - Supreme. She wanted the Greenwich Overload pizza but it's out of my budget.

CerealiciOus Cafe

One snack time, I was craving for a pesto pasta and I couldn't decide where to eat. And I saw this cafe...

 

I checked it out and they had an All Day Savers promo. I ordered their Pesto pasta with chicken.  

My Adobe Roadshow Experience

I received an invitation email from Adobe. Based from the email, they will have a presentation of their latest Creative Suite. After reading, I decided to accept their invite. The event took place at Shangri la Hotel Makati. A lot of individuals attended the event.

Pasalubong from UK

Thanks to Reynard for giving me a ref magnet. Though I'm allergic to chocolates, I got a few for myself! Thank you po. On your next trip, Snow Globe naman! wooooot!  :P

My New Ballet Flats

Since I didn't had a chance to buy a Crocs - Lily Holiday Bling shoes. I went to Payless shop at Market Market to check out some comfy flats.

Craving for a Cake

Thanks Belle De Jour for the coupon, I got my cake with a free tea!

Chao Fan!

I and my bf always go to Chowking if we want to eat rice meals that  are wallet friendly. We love their chow fans and their Nai Cha (Milk Tea) plus their siomai.. Busog  Sarap!

My Favorite - Hot Shrimp Salad

Zhu's version of Hot Shrimp Salad - a must try! 

とてもおいしい確かに! (very delicious indeed!)

I want a Crocs - Lily Holiday Bling Shoes

Today, June 9,  is the first day of Crocs Mega sale at NBC tent. I went there around 9:30am. I was shocked when I saw the super duper mega long lines. It was my first time to attend a crocs mega sale. I was hoping if I could buy a Lily Holiday Bling shoes. 

CBTL's Chai Tea Latte

Masarap pala ang Chai Tea Latte ng Coffee Bean.. thanks Belle de jour for the coupon. :)

Pancake ala Mel

One Monday again in my life, I  was the yaya of my pamangkids because my mom needs to attend an important matter. Their mom can't file an SL/VL (Sick/Vacation leave) because she needs to finish something at her work so i was the one filed a VL (Vacation leave). It was a very tiring day.. I have to clean the house, send and fetch the kids on their school, cooked lunch, snack and dinner. I want to share what I cooked for our snack during that time. I cooked Corn and Cheese Pancake. 

Suman Suman kayo dyan!

I'm a fan of suman. I always paired it with hot coffee. When I saw Tita Lyn's Flavored Suman Stall at Tiedesitas, I kept pushing my bf that we try it out. And I was never disapointed with the taste. It's delicioso even though it's a bit pricey.

TSG: BBQ Chicken Fillet for Dinner

It was another OT day for me. I went to The Sandwich Guy at One World Square Mckinley Hill to buy something for dinner. After browsing their menu, I finally gave in to Rex's suggestion to try  the BBQ Chicken Fillet Sandwich.

The BBQ Chicken Fillet Sandwich (Php 80). It has stewed chicken fillet mix with TSG's special bbq sauce, fresh lettuce, tomatoes and cheese. About the taste, it is good but nothing to rave about. I find their bbq sauce weird in taste. Although Rex like the taste of BBQ Chicken Fillet Sandwich.  Sorry for the different opinions.  I suggest you try it too.

Pizza after a long meeting

This is a super late post. The big boss of our team just visited Manila last February 2011. We had a long meeting with him and awarding for excellent individuals. After the meeting, they brought in lots of  pizza boxes from S&R and drinks for the teams to share.  

The team enjoying the pizzas

The Pizzas: Garlic Shrimp, Pepperoni and New York style

The Garlic Shrimp Pizza love the taste of shrimp. The 3 pizzas has juicy toppings and the crust is crunchy. Yum! :)

Singapore's Best: Roti Mum's Coffee Bun

This is a continuation of my previous post. Forgot to mention that the previous  NYFD Fries article and this one are late posts. Me and my bf bought coffee buns at Roti Mum bread shop. Luckily it was their anniversary so they had a buy 1 take 1 promo.. yipppeee!!! It's our first time to try Singapore's famous coffee bun.  For Php 50, it was a great deal. The taste is so good, the bread is so soft and with a subtle taste of coffee. When you reach half of the bread, you'll taste a buttery and creamy flavor.. Yumyum! This is my new favorite! But it will surely hurt my wallet if I always buy one.. haayss. Tipid mode ON.

Shoppers checking out the promo
