Pinoy Hotdogs at Franks Craft Beers Manila (Resorts World Manila)


Never did I thought that something so American, like hotdog sandwiches, can be made very Filipino. Franks Craft Beers Manila was able to come up with their Filipino Hotdogs featuring the flavors, Bistek Tagalog, Chicken Inasal, and Chicken Pork Adobo.

Buddha-Bar Manila Celebrates Its 5th Anniversary

It was a privilege for me that I was invited to the celebration of Buddha-Bar Manila's 5th Anniversary. The last time that I came to this place was about three years ago and the impression that was left in my mind was that this place is very expensive. As I return, I was surprised to see how so much has changed and how this place has adjusted to cater the Filipino market.

Better Beckons with Beringer

I had the privilege to be invited to Beringer's Master Class with their chief winemaker, Mark Beringer, and attend their food and wine pairing event. 

Raging Bull Chophouse and Bar

I had a lunch invite from Zomato to try out Raging Bull at Shangrila at The Fort along with other foodies. Being in a luxury hotel, I had expectations for this restaurant and I'm glad that it didn't disappoint me at all.

121

It was my first time to be invited for a foodie quiz night hosted by Zomato at 121 Bonifacio Stopover. Located at the third floor of BGC Stopover Pavillion, Rizal Drive corner 31st Street, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, this is 121's newest branch in the Metro, 

Normally, they host their quiz nights at Allegro branch (this one is an exemption). I also figured out that they were the first ones to introduce beer pong here in the Philippines (cool, right?). 

I had so much fun during the quiz night, and these are what we had:
121 Scandal. 121's special house recipe. Very refreshing but can get you drunk without your noticing it.

Lumpiang Shanghai. It was good with the right crunch but the meat was slightly undercooked.

Chicken Binakol. There were huge chunks of coconut in the binakol which I enjoyed. The chicken is also good but I find the soup a bit salty compared to the usual chicken binakol that I was used to.

Tuyo Fried Rice. This was really fragrant. You could smell the tuyo from afar, but it was surprisingly not salty which was a good thing. Tastes just right with the rice and was not overpowering. It has a bit of spice in it which works well with the other dishes served in 121. 

Grilled Pork Liempo. It was really good and was tender. Goes well with the 121 sauce.

121 Sauce. 121's own sauce recipe. Tastes like Knorr seasoning with soy sauce and calamansi. 

Sizzling Beef Salpicao. This is really tasty. The beef is tender and juicy. Mushrooms are juicy. Crunchy minced garlic with a good spice. 

White Chocolate Cheesecake. Cold and sweet, I liked the idea of combining white chocolate and cheesecake. Not too sweet, tastes average. Graham base is also average. 

Mandatory selfie with Jen (www.sandundermyfeet.com) during the quiz night. Their team was the one who won.

Rue Bourbon (Salcedo)


Working in Manila could be very stressful especially due to the traffic problem that we have been experiencing lately. It's about time that we unwind with our friends and pass the time at a good bar on a weekend. Last week, we decided to try Rue Bourbon (Salcedo Branch). 

FHM Bro Con After Party at House Manila


Last July 11, 2015 the FHM BroCon and 100 Sexiest Victory Party was held at the SMX Convention Center. The BroCon kinda like your usual convention events, only this time you get to meet the FHM girls. We skipped the convention and the yearly FHM fashion show and headed on to House Manila where the after party is being held.

Fuze Resto Lounge


Shabu shabu has been a craze for Manila foodies and we have recently discovered a good resto-lounge in Antipolo. Along Soliven Avenue in Masinag, comes Fuze Resto-Lounge. For those who  also love to go on a food trip at Lilac Street in Marikina, Fuze is near to that place and you just can't miss this!

Rehab Gastrobar: The Ward Room


Had a random invite from a friend to try out the new Gastrobar in Mandaluyong: Rehab. We dropped by the place at around 10 in the evening on a Tuesday. Rehab was a bit hard to find because it wasn't located along commercial areas.

12 Monkeys Music Hall & Pub


Last week, my friend invited me at 12 Monkeys for her birthday celebration. 12 Monkeys is one of the latest hangout places for OPM bands in the Metro. That night, the bands Giniling Festival, Pulso, and Up Dharma Down were to play on stage. We arrived there at 8:30pm with a table reservation and was charged 300 Php per head for our entrance. I learned that the place gives all that they have collected from the door charges to the bands.
