I've heard so much about Angels' Kitchen in the news and from my readers, so I thought it's about time we paid the place a visit. It's a simple-looking cafeteria on 57 Northeast Connecticut St., a little further away from the maddening shopping crowd of Greenhills proper. This strip of NE Connecticut is interesting actually as it hosts a Bikram Yoga studio, a branch of Conti's, UCC, an American Express bank, a couple of salons and the Konbini Tokyo store I mentioned in my earlier post. What first greets diners is the open kitchen itself which is far from ... Continue Reading...

Among the restaurants found here are Harbor View ... Continue Reading...

The Gucci Gang, & why ChikaTime is “it”
For almost two weeks now, the local blogosphere has been abuzz with gossip so juicy that it threatened to put the ZTE scandal into oblivion. "Aggrieved" blogger Brian Gorrell has torn down most of the controversial posts and gazillion comments. What remains are the last three posts, with a promise to republish the juicy portions if his former lover continues not to pay him. Question ko lang: ano naman ang ibabayad ni Delfin Montano kung sinasabi nga ni BG na ang kotse ng social climber DJ na ito ay walang aircon (!!) at di sinusuwelduhan ang driver for three ...
