  • Kuizine

    Kuizine is a quaint little restaurant in capitol at The Boulevard. Don’t underestimate when I say “little” because this restaurant has potential and a palette for quality. The ambiance of Kuizine feels really corporate but relaxed. They mean business but they don’t, at the same time. It’s probably the place where people who go to offices eat and meet up with friends. It could also be the place to have a casual meeting with co-workers. Either way, just be mindful that there is limited space and other customers might want to you use the tables. Ofcourse, I ordered their best seller and their specialty. The photo above is the “Creamy…

  • Bag of Beans

    Last month, my girlfriend and I went to Tagaytay to visit Taal Volcano and, ofcourse, to visit our friends in Manila as well.  We’re very thankful to our hyperactive and spontaneous friend, Arch. Niel Andrew Ang for touring us around Tagaytay and Laguna! We can’t thank you enough! Moreover, after visiting Taal Volcano crater (which I’ll be blogging about soon) we were so hungry and exhausted so our friend suggested to eat lunch at this place… Bag of Beans. This is just one of their 3 branches, I think. We ended up with this one because all the other branches were filled. They have the same menu anyway. Haha The…
