a.k.a the go to restaurant during walwal days. 24 hours kasi 'yung West Avenue branch, diba? Nakakamiss din pala kumain dito! Pero hindi masyado 'yung mga ginagawa before kami mapadpad dito dati. #tumatandaproblemzzz
Here's my order.

This is my first time ordering this because I always ordered a rice meal. This didn't look filling at first. Tipong, anong kalokohan na naman 'tong order mo, Tin? Mukhang di aabot sa tyan. Hahaha! But okay na 'to, busog din pala.
Shawarma Plate

Gusto ko 'yung timpla nung beef and the "unli" garlic sauce. Haha. Ge. Alam mo na, expertise ko talaga mag-describe ng lasa eh. Di ka madi-disappoint kasi laging waley. hehehe. :))
And of course, pita bread para talagang shawarma.

Back at Pudaquit, Zambales. Our chosen area for this year's two getaways... kasi mura. hahaha. Jk. Not only is this place affordable, you get to travel with little to no traffic. Goodbye EDSA! NLEX, SCTEX at TIPO kami. Isang diretso lang kaya kahit malayo, kaya 'to ng three hours from Quezon City. 

Do you know other affordable beach resort in North Luzon?

Anywayyy, if you're going to Barangay Pundaquit in Zambales and you're looking for an accommodating resort. Hm, you may go and inquire anywhere but Megan's Beach Resort. Ayoko NA sakanila. huhuhu. Pagkatapos ko kayong i-blog noong April, ganito pa igaganti niyo sa'kin?! HAHAHAHA. Charot lang. Even if  it might take me forever (buti pa kami may forever) to share the story, I will because I am someone who holds grudges. lelz. Gusto ko sana talagang all positive, 'yung tipong ayoko maglagay ng unpleasant experience dito sa blog ko  pero wala eh, kailangan kong ilabas to para matuto na kong magpatawad. Haha. Ang arte, e noh? 'Yun na nga... NEVER AGAIN, MEGAN'S BEACH RESORT. O edi wow. :)))) 

"E Mam, kahit anong gawin niyo, 'yun po ang resort policy kaya kayo ang dapat na mag-adjust sa'min. Mamili po kayo. Kung cottage, cottage lang para sa lahat. Kung kubo naman, kubo lang."

"Kahit wala naman kayong ibang customer? Ayaw kasi talaga nung iba na sa cottage eh kaya dun lang sila daw sa kubo."

"Hindi po pwede. Resort policy ay resort policy."


"AH GANUN BA!?!!!!!!!!? O sige, hahanap akong iba!!!!!!!!! Madali lang naman akong kausap."


Nako, nako, kung ayaw edi wag pilitin kasi baka pumayag!! Hindi naman ako magagalit kaso 'yung dalawang tao rin dun, pumayag na sila kasi nga wala naman daw tao kaso 'yung isa, ayaw niya talaga kaya nainis ako. 

Alam mo 'yun, kesa meron ng magre-rent ng dalawang cottage na may aircon at dalawang kubo sa labas, nawalan pa tuloy sila ng customer. Minsan, okay rin na bini-bend ang resort policy eh. Especially when it doesn't make sense! Wala namang ibang pupunta tas bawal? #$@%%@~!!!! RELAKS. haha! Not worth the high blood pressure.


 Gusto niya ng patigasan edi nakuha niya hinahanap niya. Gosh, ang aga aga. Sarreh dahil matigas ang ulo ko. Ipipilit ko talaga kung anong gusto ko kaya bahala sila. hehehe. Buti na lang, lumipat kami sa Kristel Paradiso Beach Resort. Ang welcoming nila, asikasong-asikaso kami, nag-linis pa sila kaagad at higit sa lahat, mas mura. hehehehe.  


Dahil nakakuha kami ng mas okay... for the apology I never got, apology accepted. E ikaw na sabihan ng mga kasama mo na, "Buti na lang nagalit ka! Mas maganda pa nga dito." HAHAHAHAHAHA. Mga sadista rin eh. 
We decided to island hop again.

First time that I was in the area was when I went to Capones Lighthouse and Anawangin Cove link:here.
Second time that I went there was to swim at Pundaquit beach and we rode a boat to Camara Island link: here.

This, third time, we decided to island hop to Camara, Capones and Anawangin Cove (island hop kahit hindi naman island 'yung Anawangin. hehe) 

This was taken at Camara Island. Okay naman, mukhang white sand pero pang-aquarium na maliliit na shells 'yung mga bato rito. 
Taken at Capones Island.

Ito 'yung side na nakatapat sa Pundaquit, 'yung papunta kasi sa lighthouse e hindi okay swimingan. 
There are no accommodations, no comfort room but for this? Okay na, diba?
Then on the way to Anawangin Cove...

Those mountains make Pundaquit stand out from the rest. I've been there for three times already but I never get tired of looking at the view.
Anyare sa'yo, Anawangin?! Ang lungkot na niya tignan. :(((( This is not the Anawangin that I know. It's heartbreaking to say this pero ang pangit na. :( 
I was really disappointed with the current state of Anawangin Cove so if ever you're planning of going in the area. Although hindi ko pa napuntahan, Nagsasa Cove na lang siguro. Or better yet, sa Capones o Camara na lang. Pwede naman maki-wash sa mga resort na nasa Barangay Pundaquit.

Salamat kay Kuya na sobrang accommodating dun sa babaeng nanginginig sa galit na naghahanap ng resort na malilipatan. Hahahahaha!!!

This is my second post about this Korean dessert cafe in Bonifacio Global City. I posted this because the last time I went there, I had a strawberry bingsu for free. Promote promote din. lolz. It's not free because I blog, it was free because I Instagram. 

Cafe Seolhwa, Forum South, Bonifacio Global City. The building is near The Fort Strip. Oh, you might also want to try Seoul Express (TFS) and O'rice (FSG) for more Korean food experience. :>


Anyhow, it has been more than a month since I won so I am not sure if the contest is still ongoing. Follow @seolhwabingsu and @xtintina sa IG na lang for more details. 'Yung @xtintina talaga nagdala eh. Hahahaha! 


Thank you so much, Cafe Seolhwa! Winning really made my night. It was night time when I found out that I won. Eating made my afternoon. It was a hot afternoon when I claimed this. Bakit ba ang dami kong sinasabi? 'Yung totoo. Hahahaha.


Thank you, @seolhwabingsu for my free #딸기 #빙수.👍 #strawberry #bingsu #dessert #cafeseolhwa #bgc #forum

This was my free strawberry bingsu. I was shocked when Cafe Seolhwa tagged me in a post saying that I won their Instagram contest. I was just mindlessly hashtagging #cafeseolhwa and #seolhwabingsu but it turned out that I sent an entry. Not complaining. :">

Before and after of our 진짜 좋아하는 빙수... #bingsu #dessert #cafeseolhwa #mango #strawberry #cheese #chocolate @seolhwabingsu 👍

We ordered these flavors: Mango Cheesecake and Chocolate Brownie.

You might see me there or you might see my friends there. Basta the energetic bunch who would stay there for several hours during Saturdays. Hehehehe. Infairness naman sa'min, we order a lot kaya keri lang!

If Cafe Seolhwa had a membership card, my friends would have the VVVVVIP card by now. 
Didn't think that I'd like this flavor too. 😊😊😊 Di pala na-upload kagabi.😍 @seolhwabingsu #cafeseolhwa #injeolmi #인절미 #빙수 #bingsu #toast #dessert #economical

And we weren't satisfied with just ordering three flavors, we ordered this economical meal composed of injeolmi bingsu with injeolmi toast. 

Injeolmi, for those who don't know, is one of the variants of tteok a.k.a Korean rice cake. Korean cuisine has many kinds of tteok and a more popular type would be the one used in cooking tteokbokki, the garaetteok. Anyway, what make injeolmi and garaetteok different is injeolmi's coating/gomul and its chewy consistency that can be compared with Japan's mochi. 

Enough of this culinary lesson because it's not the rice cake that made me want this variant too but the powder. I can't explain the taste, as always, but this is interesting to the palate. hehehehe.


Look at how fine the shaved ice is. Ka-miss pls!! Gusto ko tuloy kumain ulit.
If I were to rank these bingsu, I'd pick this mango cheesecake as my first. (Hindi kasama sa options ang Matcha Red Bean Bingsu ah. Kasi number one talaga ang matcha dito, dito sa puso ko, damdamin ko'y hindi na magbabago. hehehehe)

Strawberry Bingsu and Injeolmi would be tied at second place
Chocolate Brownie would be the last.

More more more. hehe. So far, I've only tried four of the many bingsu offerings of Cafe Seolhwa. Hehehe. I shall return!

This is one of the new Korean Restaurants in Bonifacio Global City. It is in the same building with Cafe Seolhwa. This is on the first floor, Seolhwa is on the second.
You put the rainbow in my eyes. A silver lining in my prayers and now there's #colors everywhere... 🎵🎶🎼 🍴 #orice #art #ahrti #lunch

It was a hot Saturday afternoon and we were all craving for something sweet and cold so we went to Forum South Global Building for Seolhwa. But we hadn't eaten our lunch yet so we entered O'rice...
This is the cheapest Kimbap variant in ther menu.

This big Tuna Kimbap was our order. I know that it doesn't look big here in the picture, but its size is twice to thrice the regular-sized kimbap that we know... toinks, but size is relative pa rin, diba? Hehe. Anyway, this tasted good! And they didn't skimp on the ingredients as well kaya sulit na rin. I was full after eating four pieces.
And that day, I found out that eating kimbap with mayonnaise and chili powder tastes good! 



Someday, I'll go back there to try their other food options because they have a lot! 



And, meron din palang plus points para sa paminsan-minsang fire show galing sa open kitchen nila. hehehe.

Sorry, wallet and body. Hindi ko kinaya ang temptation. HAHAHAHA.

I went to Subic last month. (Zoobic Safari), then we went to Puregold Dutyfree where I found several matcha products and I almost cried. Joke. :)) Grabe. Anda. :( 


Here's my current favorite matcha chocolate from Nikko. Just that, I don't see this in any store here in Manila.

$ 4.58
Don't get fooled by how it's packed. Medyo walang effort, noh? Maibalot lang. 
Caramel coated almond coated in creamy matcha chocolate coated in potent matcha powder. hehe. Ito na puro coated. :))

The matcha chocolate is creamy but the matcha powder tastes grassy that's why I like this a lot. In this small piece of chocolate, you get to taste three flavors - bitter, creamy and sweet.
