Alabang is certainly far enough to go for fine dining if you don't live there. But eating at The French Corner has been one of my great gastronomic experiences lately that I wouldn't hesitate to dine here again. This resto prides itself of its "Creative Continental cuisine" crafted by noted gourmet chef Billy King. It is one of the mainstays in the cozy complex called the Westgate Center. The prices aren't to be scoffed at, and this is one of the places to go to when you want to impress your date - most especially because of the great service. It certainly ... Continue Reading...
Lolo Dad’s and other great places to have a Valentine’s Day dinner date in Manila
I've been working in the City of Manila for the longest time. Even though the place is "decaying" due to the rise of more contemporary restaurant strips in The Fort, Makati and beyond, some good ol' places still remain. Here are some suggestions on where to take your loved one for a Valentine's Day date in Manila: 1.

Cosa Nostra on Adriatico St. Malate is the cutest little spot in Manila. A ... Continue Reading...
Deco’s original La Paz batchoy comes to Manila
Deco's is the inventor of the famous La Paz batchoy - an Ilonggo comfort food consisting of noodles in a hot bowl of soup, topped with pork meat, liver and sinful bits of chicharon. I was certainly glad to learn that I don't have to fly as far as Iloilo to partake of this mouthwatering treat because there's now a Deco's branch right outside the Magallanes MRT station in Makati. Here, special batchoy can be had for as little as P67 and can be paired with the so-called pre-war pan de sal for P3.50 or the Manapla puto @ P6.50. ... Continue Reading...
Westgate Center Alabang food tour : eight restaurants in eight hours
Alabang has become nearer to us ever since the family moved south of Manila. And in this district, I discovered a charming place which endeared me the first time I went there. It's called the Westgate Center in in Filinvest Corporate City (FiliCity), an all-in-one complex to shop, dine, play with the kids, indulge in beauty routines or spend on one's favorite hobbies like bikes and cars. The Kanin Club was the first restaurant I discovered and where I savored my first taste of crispy dinuguan. I remember how I promised to myself then that we'll come back to try all ...

Bistro Coron & other food treats in an island-town
Mainly, what made our trip to Coron, Palawan enjoyable was that I wasn't prepared for the quality of the food that awaited us here. It was simply superb! Bistro Coron has been popular with tourists and I must say they deserve the positive reviews. Dining at the bistro is one of the reasons why I want to go to Coron a second time. Too bad I didn't get into the habit of memorizing the menu, being on honeymoon mode, LOL. But just to give you an idea, here's what a divine breakfast at Bistro Coron looks like , at P250 or so. Nothing makes a more perfect morning than a ... Continue Reading...
