Banapple

Took home cakes from Banapple, Ayala Triangle Gardens. And? HEAVEN!! Just skip on the added adipose and high sugar levels. Oh anyway, these cakes are (top to bottom) Potion Pie (110.00/slice), Oreo Brownie Fudge Cheesecake (110.00/slice), Banoffee Pie (95.00/slice) and Dark Chocolate Tiramisu Cheesecake (110.00/slice) These are all delicious but I love cheesecakes so I'm biased with the Oreo and Brownie Fudge. ...

Chicken Lollipop

Cooked chicken lollipop last night. Here's the procedure, it's fairly easy. Chicken wings. These are already seasoned with salt and pepper. Beaten egg.  Japanese Bread Crumbs Usually before you put the wings in the egg, you'd have to cover  it first with  all-purpose flour but we skipped that part. Then bread it with breadcrumbs. Here's how they look like. Deep fry. Cooked. That...

Sip Milk Tea

Still not tired of the milk tea fad? Here's another store.   That floral taste. Tsk.  I tried SIP milk tea at Robinson's Galleria, I didn't know what to order so I opted for their Green Milk Tea and on my first sip, I tasted that floral taste again although much milder than what Cha Dao milk tea had, I don't like it....

Tous Les Jours

After eating at a Korean restaurant, we transferred to SM North to buy breads from a Korean Bakery. I experienced the sale rush tonight. Like what my brother was saying, some were wild and most were like hoarding the breads. Just like what I've posted here before, this Korean bakery sells their unsold breads for 50% off their original price as the clock...

Ristorante Bigoli

Happy Valentine's Day!  Ristorante Bigoli is one of the restaurants we eat at whenever we like Italian cuisine. They offer delicious food at affordable prices; no wonder the place is most of the times packed whenever we pass by. (Trinoma, near Cinema 7) We ordered their Doppio Deligioso set meal for two which would also be enough for four persons to munch on....

Skyflakes with Tuna

I have been distancing myself with instant noodles for meriendas these days and rediscovered this recipe I used to eat several years ago. Purchase your Century Tuna here. Purchase your Skyflakes here.  I enjoy tuna more with mayonnaise but at times we have no mayo at home, this would suffice.  It's just crushed skyflakes, canned tuna and salt. Filling, healthy and very easy to make....

Lorys Hair Cream and A Bonne Hair Spa

TonTon Massage, Congressional (now Sabai-Sabai)

UPDATE (NOV. 3, 2014) This is still one of my favorite massage places and that's obvious given that this was posted in 2012 and until now, we find ourselves going back once to twice a month. Anyhow, Tonton Massage in Joroma Building, Congressional Avenue has been renovated and is now called, Sabai-Sabai Authentic Thai Massage. There has been a great change in the...

Love Breads? Try Tous Les Jours

Oh, the name sounds familiar.  My brother came home today with two plastic bags filled with breads from a Korean Bakery in SM North, Tous Les Jours. According to him, roughly around 8:30 PM on weekday nights, the store puts up 50% discount on most of its products. This practice assures clients that they get fresh breads everyday, 'cause all left-overs are sold...
