Our recent staycation in Alabang was very productive. I was able to discover new places and food haunts. One of these is the Union Jack Tavern on the second level of Festival Mall. It's a spacious and homey British pub that one doesn't expect to find in a mall. The ambiance is nice, service is friendly and they serve great Indian & British food... definitely a must-visit if you are like me who gets sentimental about Europe! ;) The place appears to be popular with the foreign community in this part of Manila. That Sunday, it was full of diners who were there for ... Continue Reading...
Pie Face MOA has the best Aussie pies in Manila!
Pinoys aren't really a pie-eating people. I don't mean pizza but PIE. We love our burgers, pastas, steaks, noodles, adobo...but pies? The nearest thing to what I'm referring to is probably our empanada but it's different in terms of texture & shape and is more Spanish than anything. Pies are a another matter in Australia because it's akin to being a national dish. It's a good thing that one of the leading pie-makers Down Under has set up shop in Manila, with their maiden branch in MOA or the Mall of Asia. And the name is Pie Face... As you can see, they don't ... Continue Reading...

Mr. Pizza in Greenbelt Makati… Korea’s No. 1 chain is here!
If you love Korean food and pop culture like me, you'll surely be delighted with the news that their No. 1 pizza chain has opened its maiden store in Greenbelt 3 Makati City. I missed eating here when I visited Korea (where they have 400 stores) but not to fret, @MrPizzaPh is really good too! It's pizza like we've never had before since they have unique and assorted flavors for their crust. Among these are egg tart, cream cheese, Cheddarella and the bestselling Gold which is made from sweet potato. Moreover, they take pride in the fact that their pizzas are ... Continue Reading...
Parque Espana Residence Hotel in Alabang : a review
Parque Espana Residence Hotel in Alabang is kinda off the radar but some people would consider it a boon that it's in a quiet, still uncrowded location. Also, the area of this hotel is fast developing. There are big outlets of McDonalds & Jollibee nearby and it's just across Commercenter building with its hip row of new bars & restaurants. So yes, this made us happy campers here two weeks ago. Our five-year old Lucia was the happiest. She's really loving these weekend staycations and excitedly expects it to be a regular occurrence. Said she: "We're doing this every ... Continue Reading...
