Casa Buenas
Every once in a while, a restaurant surprises me. May it be a particular dish, their interior, quality service, or by sheer ingenuity. This time, for the first time for so long, I was pleasantly surprised and impressed by my all around experience at Casa Buenas. Yes! It is a dining experience one should try. As you enter Casa Buenas, you are greeted with stunning ‘Bahay na Bato’ inspired interior design. Stunning, even, is an understatement. In my opinion, it was breathtaking. Having studied Architecture and not being able to research about the restaurant before we dined, I was literally in awe! The really nailed the subtle modern take of…

Dunkin’ Donuts: Half Half Hoooray!
I know how it feels when you just need a cup of coffee to give you that boost to endure a long day. We gotta hustle and we have to start our day right! Right? Well, for some ladies, they got more than just a boost. They were in for a treat just like in the movies! Except this one is for real. Some very lucky people during the annual Dunkin’ Coffee Day got to have Piolo Pascual give them a cup of free coffee!

Shabu Shabu Ichiban
I had the pleasure of being one of the people invited for Shabu Shabu Ichiban’s food tasting. To be honest, I was really hesitant in attending since I am not fond of Japanese or any oriental cuisine. So, I was sort of terrified. Haha I decided to go because why not? Okay, I did give out a reason why not. Hey! I really need to give this place a chance with my taste buds. I have to try out new things and that is why I decided to go. Guess what? It was one of the best decisions I made! Shabu Shabu Ichiban really caught me by surprise. Not did…

Vanille Salée
I have always been a fan of anything vanilla. Yes, I’m probably one of the few guys who would trade chocolates over vanilla ice cream but I’d prefer to have both! Haha It turns out, vanilla also goes very well with food. I was surprised and left wanting for more. Mövenpick Hotel Mactan Island Cebu’s “Vanille Salée” will definitely ignite your taste buds to delicious vanilla creations by the talented Director of Food & Beverage Europe, Thomas Hollenstein. The photo above is the “Veal Tenderloin Jardiniére” which was instantly my favorite! =) ‘Vanille Salée’ is comprised of six six one of a kind vanilla enhanced dishes which is now available at…

Magnum Cebu
I still remember way back in college when I would crave for chocolates, I would definitely buy a Magnum. If I crave for ice cream, I would also buy a Magnum! Guess what? I have a sweet tooth and I always crave for both! Haha Magnum ice cream was always the best choice in satisfying the best of both worlds. Years have passed and the brand synonymous to Belgian chocolate indulgence have grown with a variety of decadent flavors such a the Magnum Infinity. This time Magnum ice cream takes their signature ice cream bars to the next level… and they are bringing it to Cebu! Magnum Cebu opens at…

Bibimbap at KPub
I just recently discovered an awesome promotion from KPub BBQ in Ayala Center Cebu! The Bibimbap Lunch Set! All along, I thought KPub BBQ is all about their meat-all-you-can packages but they also offer other promotions such as this lunch set. If the meat-all-you-can is too much for you then this lunch set is definitely a must try! The KPub Bibimbap Lunch Set on costs Php 299 and it comes with appetizers already. We had kimchi, sweet potato, leafy vegetables, and miso soup. The lunch set actually comes with a free Bibimbap with every single order of your favorite Korean dish. You can choose between Dak Bulgogi, So Bulgogi, Jeyouk…
