I finally tried Dolce Latte’s Croughnuts 2 weeks ago! I was able to satiate my curiosity about these croughnuts, although I still want to try Wildflour’s Cronuts. Our office is just near Dolce Latte, my friends and I took our chances of dropping by their restaurant at around 3:3o pm, hoping to grab a box for their walk-ins. And we’re in luck coz they still have 6 croughnuts left.

We have a sort of campaign in the office and upon achieving the goal, we get to have an incentive for the team. Since I’m the one holding the money, I get to choose where to spend our money. I chose Napa Restaurant because it’s just in Scout Borromeo, near the office.
I think I found my new number one ramen joint, and even if it’s a long drive down South, the comforting bowl of their ramen is worth it.

Last summer, I was invited to the opening of the newest branch of Jamba Juice. Health buffs can now grab a cup of their favorite smoothie at EDSA Shangri-la Mall.
“We have always been vocal that expansion is a commitment for the brand,” shares Sharon T. Fuentebella, Managing Director of Jamba Juice Philippines. “We want our products to be more convenient for those who find Jamba Juice as a brand complementing their lifestyle, hence, we’re jambafying the places our market wants them most.”
At the opening, I was lucky to get behind those counters and make my own smoothie. It’s one of the coolest experiences because I got to see how my smoothie is made, from adding the fruit juice and the fresh ingredients down to blending it to perfection. Jho of Jamba Juice, EDSA Shangri-la Mall showed me how to make by perfect Strawberries Wild smoothie.
Aristocrat is one of the first restaurants I’ve known since childhood. I remember their branch in Grand Central in Monumento, my favorite is their Chicken Barbecue and Java rice. We would always eat there on Sundays and on special occasions. There are a lot of new tastes and restaurants that I’ve tried since then, but whenever I pass by the Aristocrat at Roxas Boulevard, I can always say that they have indeed the best Chicken Barbecue in town.
I had the opportunity to rediscover the Aristocrat restaurant. This time, we visited their Subic branch. The Aristocrat in Subic is the first franchise of the restaurant, having met the stringent requirements of the Reyes family before approval.
Aristocrat Restaurant has a very good location in Subic, you can’t miss it because it’s just beside Harbor Point Mall.
Last December, we headed to Manaoag, Pangasinan to have my brother’s new vehicle blessed. They decided to sell their old car and bought a new one for his growing family. On our way home, we had our lunch at Isdaan in Gerona, Tarlac. You can’t miss this place because of the huge signage with lots of cars parked in front, it sure is a popular stop-over for roadtrippers.
