Grilled Tomato is the answer for our Persian food cravings, it’s along [...]

Banapple, I first heard of this restaurant from friends and colleagues but since the first branch is in Katipunan, I never got to visit this place. Fortunately, Banapple has another branch in Quezon City, located at the 2nd Floor of Il Terrazzo along Tomas Morato. I visited Banapple to prove all the props received by [...]

Ajisen Ramen is one food discovery when we were in Hong Kong. The ramen and the soup was so delicious that we dreamed of going back to HK just to have another round of Hong Kong food trip. But one chilly morning a day after Christmas, we found Ajisen Ramen at the Midtown wing of [...]

It was a hot Sunday afternoon and while were heading back to Caloocan from my in-laws in Las Pinas, we decided to grab shakes or anything cold at Mall of Asia. Coming from the South, we immediately caught a glimpse of The Creamery, ice cream on a scorching hot afternoon is bliss. The Creamery is [...]
