The New Kamameshi House (Japanese Cuisine)

Try Kamameshi rice, my friends recommended years ago when I ventured in Makati. I still hear, and sometimes use, the term “Kamameshi rice”, although this is redundant if you come to think of it.

Craving for Burger? Crave Burger Restaurant

I  once thought of having a list of top burgers in the Philippines, with the Brothers Burger definitely at the upper echelon. Then they closed the Rockwell branch (Makati) and I had to transfer my food hunt to their branches … Continue reading →

Steak at Meat Plus Restaurant (Subic Bay)

What do you do when you go to Subic Bay? You’re most probably on a business trip or a special mission to raid the duty-free shops. And because it’s summer, you’re probably off enjoying the beaches in Subic (like Camayan … Continue reading →

Boneless Crispy Pata at Serye Restaurant

In the rare instances that I want to eat in a restaurant, when doing transactions at the Quezon City Hall or in that area, there are just a few restaurants I can think of. These are the restaurants I usually … Continue reading →

The Cliffhouse (Tagaytay City)

Sometimes it’s difficult to decide which article to write first, in the same way that it’s painfully mind-boggling to decide which restaurant to prioritize in a certain cluster. Take, for instance, the higher-end alternative to the group of restaurants surrounding … Continue reading →

Mamou (A Home Kitchen) in Serendra, Fort Bonifacio

Of all the posts under the “Food” category, this is probably the most difficult to compose. It’s not that I’ve visited the other venues in more instances. It’s not that I’m having a mental block.

Bulalo at Leslie’s Restaurant (Tagaytay)

The main attraction of Tagaytay is the view of Taal Volcano, which could be seen along the edge of the outer crater. I’m not sure if “outer crater” is the appropriate term, but I have to hazard a guess considering … Continue reading →

Sonya’s Garden Restaurant & Country Bed and Breakfast

Sonya’s Garden is not easy to find (in my previous experience, at least). This is probably the reason why it was previously called, if I’m not mistaken, as Sonya’s Secret Garden. The second time we were there, we told the … Continue reading →

Siopao (and Mami) at Ma Mon Luk (Quezon City)

One can’t help but feel being transported back in time upon entering Ma Mon Luk, at least the one in Quezon City. You’ll be surprised to see that the place looked really ancient. It’s probably ancient.

Abe (Serendra, Fort Bonifacio)

The only establishment I go to when I visit the vicinity of Bonifacio High Street or Serendra (Fort Bonifacio, just across Market!Market!) is the Fully Booked bookstore. This changed today, when I “accidentally” discovered Abe, a restaurant serving Filipino food.

Fish & Co. (Trinoma)

It was a day of firsts. On the first day of 2008, we ate in one of Trinoma‘s cluster of restaurants located in what I’d like to call “The Garden”, at the 6th floor (just look for the Cinemas, then … Continue reading →

Massimo (Tagaytay)

Tagaytay is not exactly near Metro Manila, specially considering the added traffic brought about by the South Luzon Expressway [re]construction, and anyone must have a darn good reason to go up there. When somebody invited us to try Massimo’s, saying … Continue reading →

Kalui, Puerto Princesa (Palawan)

While it may sound like an exotic location somewhere in Hawaii, Kalui is actually a restaurant located in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. It’s really not much to look at from the outside, but wait till you get inside. The paintings and … Continue reading →

Isdaan Restaurant (Gerona, Tarlac)

Eat anything edible. This is probably one of the tips taught in Subic jungle survival course. I can eat almost anything, except, well, many vegetables. Still, this doesn’t stop me from appreciating good food, specially those with good prices and … Continue reading →
