Brownie Ala Mode in Cofifi Cafe

I’ve been cafe-hopping around in Cebu and most of the Cafe’s, I realized are too, well, uniformed. For example if you go to Starbucks, you can sense it’s the usual Starbucks and then when you go to another you associate with the “usual” word. Few weeks ago I decided to go to something new and out of the usual. Read the rest of this entry »

Figaro’s A La Carte Meals by Chef Karl Marxist Tan

July 4th, 2010

You might get surprised after knowing that a Coffee company is offering now A La Carte meals in the Philippines. And yes indeed, Figaro now is offering to its loyal consumers

It’s good to know that Figaro is widening its variety of products offered among its loyal consumers. What would you ask for, if a certain coffee shop also offered a complete set of pasta and delightful breakfast meal in A la Carte.

Last week, I was invited by a good friend and got the chance to visit the Figaro Shangri- La Plaza branch just to get a free taste of their newest A la carte menu by Chef Karl Marxist Tan. It’s very convenient for me this time that I can have my favourite hot or iced coffee having my breakfast, lunch or dinner with the newest a la carte meals.

The long wait is over and Figaro finally launched four new exciting and delightful meals at your choice. These include:

Dory Provencal – Php199.00

Pan fried dory fish fillet infused in zesty provencal sauce.

Pigar-Pigar in Dagupan City

April 18th, 2010

The Bangus Festival 2010 is fast approaching and surely, the people of Dagupan City are now excited for the said celebration. As a Dagupena who was born, raised and graduated in the area, I would like to share another food worth trying if you are in Dagupan City.

See, our city is known as the ‘Bangus Capital of the World’. Bangus (Milkfish) from Bonuan is said to be the most delicious milkfish in the World. I do agree with that claim. It is the main reason why the Bangus Festival exist.

But I won’t be discussing about Bangus or anything related to it anyway.

Pigar-Pigar

Pigar-Pigar in Dagupan City

One of the most in-demand food in Dagupan right now is the Pigar-Pigar. People from other towns usually go to Dagupan City just for this. Most pigar-pigar stalls are located at Galvan Street.

I do admit that when I was younger, I had a wrong impression about pigar-pigar. My dad used to eat with some of his friends, but my mom didn’t allow me to eat some. When I was in college, my classmates and co-workers invited me to eat dinner at Galvan once, until it became a once-in-a-month habit.

ThaiDara: Bangkok Street Food

April 14th, 2010

I had the pleasure of eating with Between Bites and “Bubba” (ok chris I really gotta get used to calling you that since apparently that is your online name!) after a company event. I was a bit shy since “Bubba” (sorry Chris will put this in quotation marks muna!) was there and I’m a shy person really! They decided to go have dinner at ThaiDara, a Thai resto place located at Gilmore. Having limited knowledge about Thai food I didn’t even try to order for myself and left everything to Between Bites to choose.
