Location: Grand Eastwood Palazzo, Eastwood Avenue cor. Orchard Road, Eastwood, Quezon City Let's have a selfie! Designing your own pizza is just as easy as 1-2-3. Go to the start of the line and you have a million of combinations to come up with. Let's start! Here's the pie.. I had my pie in red sauce Due to a long line of pizza designers, I observed that for every pie prepared, they see to it that they clean their working table afterwards. Then choose your cheese. Here comes the fun part. Since I love bacon, I was extremely happy to have my pie full of bacon. Oh bacon! ♥ Tadaaaaaa! Here's my pizza. It looks normal but I'm too happy that all of my favorites are in one pie. It was my first time and the staff were too warm to their guests. They attended to all of my needs. Thank you, Project Pie Eastwood! I'll be back. :)

Location: 10355 Dancel Dormitory, F.O. Santos Street, Brgy. Batong Malake, Los Banos, Laguna Store Hours: Mon-Sat. 11:30 AM - 9:00 PM Seoul Kitchen is Korean-themed restaurant located near the University of the Philippines, Los Banos that had captured the hearts of the students. Knowing that the owner/chef is a full-blood Korean, the dishes served were authentic. Kimbap (Original) - Php 105 Rice rolled with egg, carrots, ham, fish cake, and yellow radish in nori. This is quite a heavy snack. Tuna Kimbap - Php 120 Same as the original kimbap, except with tuna. Ramyun - Php 95 This midly spicy soup is perfect for rainy days. Dropped with one whole egg, this is a bomb. Japchae - Php 80 This Korean version of our very own Pancit is made with carrots, egg, and sesame seeds. This slightly sweet and savory noodle dish made from potato is a good choice for those who are not a fan of hot and spicy. Cheese Lappoki - Php 95 Mandu - Php 75 Soy Garlic Chicken - Php 115 (1 pc) Php 150 (2 pc) Korean fried chicken dipped in soy garlic sauce. This is served with cabbage with sesame dressing. I just wish that they could serve extra cabbage. Yang Nyum Chicken - Php 115 (1 pc) Php 150 (2 pc) One of my favorites. This is another version of Korean fried chicken dipped in sweet and spicy sauce, also served with cabbage drizzled with sesame dressing. Spicy Pork Bulgogi - Php 155 We all know that beef bulgogi is the safest Korean dish to order but this tender spicy pork dish is a bomb. This is served with kimchi. Bibimbap - Php 140 This is just too much for lunch. Plain white rice topped with vegetables, beef, and egg, served with kimchi and chili paste. You must mix the chili paste with the rice and dig in! I just don't prefer Bibimbap with kimchi. Chicken Mayo Rice - Php 120 I am a spicy-food lover but this is a favorite. This yummy rice dish topped with egg, chicken, and mayo makes me want more. A must try. Honey Butter Bread - Php 105 A thick slice of loaf topped with whipped cream, maple syrup, and cinnamon. I love the crunchy corners. My friend and I are fighting over it. :D Pat Bing Soo - Php 100 This is their version of halo-halo. A refreshing combination of fruits, red beans, and milk in one. Hot Chocolate with Cinnamon and Mallow Tops - Php 85 Like your favorite hot chocolate drink with a twist of big mallows, chocolate syrup, ad cinnamon. Yum! Kopi Roti - Php 105 Ice cubes made of coffee will really wake you up. I tasted the coffee cubes alone and I almost puked! The bitterness of the coffee is there but I love it. This is best with fresh milk and sugar. Another favorite. Great food + wonderful service = two thumbs up! #
If we are used to having burgers with bun, patty, tomato, lettuce and cheese, oh please. You can customize them. Go out of the box and discover what the hamburger world has to offer. Here's what my tummy has found out, as for now.
The Burger Bar and the Burger Project let you choose your bun, toppings, beef, and other fixins. The only difference is that, Burger Bar's waiter service spoils their customers whereas in the Burger Project, they employ self-service.
They both serve their burgers hot so consume immediately. When it comes to taste, I can't say the one is better than the other. It depends on what you have chosen. Besides, what I'm after is that, I can customize my own burger. All you have to do is to choose you bun, patty, sides, and sauce and voila! Dig in! x
Lori Baltazar, the author of the book, Dessert Comes First had a book signing event at Fully Booked Bonifacio High Street. Finally! For only Php 1499, my own copy of the book is such a celebrated surprise. Thanks, Dad! On my way to the top shelf, this welcomes me to the event. Here's my coupon to the food bazaar. I was so full so I didn't get to try all the food. All of them look and taste so good! Here's Lori Baltazar smiling at my lens. Thank you for signing my book! "Family picture!" As what Lori said. She looks so happy and bubbly. I love talking to her. Food BazaarBono: Artisanal Gelato When I saw Bono's booth, I ran into it first. I don't know what to choose among Red Velvet, Taho, and the Lori. Since it was Lori's event, why not try her own flavor? Dulce de Leche with flambéed bananas, chocolate syrup, and peanut brittle crumble. This is new and a new favorite. Good thing that I ran to this first and definitely, dessert comes first. Cookie Bar With the wide array of choices, these cookies will definitely magnetize you and your senses. I don't know what to choose! I ended up with Nutella-stuffed cookie and Hershey's semi-sweet morsels and White Chocolate cookie cups. Like their Facebook page for more of their sweet treats. Breakfast and Pies Something savory and sweet. For the savory, they have Caramelized Onions, Mushrooms, Bacon, and Gruyere and for the sweet, they have Banana Cream Pie. Purefoods Deli Small portions of Purefoods' sausages and ham. I chose the Sausage Wrapped in Bacon. This wiped out the sweets all over my palate. Homemade by Roshan Packed in boxes, you can take home the Surprise Cupcakes, Belgian Chocolate Chunk Cookies, Food for the Gods, and Espresso Cheesecake Brownies. Check out homemadebyroshan.com for more. Magnolia All-Purpose Cream They have Coffee Jelly Creme, Strawberries and Mangoes Blended Cream, and Mixed Oats Fruits made with the Magnolia All-Purpose Cream. Stevie's The man behind the one-of-a-kind Chicken Rice and Shrimp roll, Chef Stevie Villacin. He's very warm and I'm glad that I met him. The food was good and I want to try more of his recipes soon. Seneca Snacks These healthy and delicious snacks are made from real fresh apples. A good way to replace the usual chips in your cupboard. "Preparing myself to meet the Lori Baltazar of #DessertComesFirst on Saturday. <3" I've sent this tweet on a Wednesday before the event. Lori found it and I felt so excited when I read her response. I introduced myself when I approached her during the book signing and I'm so glad that she remembered my tweet. She is my inspiration. I can stay up all day in her blog, dessertcomesfirst.com. This event was a first for me. I came home with a filled heart and tummy. You made my day. <3

Holding on to their menu, this mouth-watering stack of pancakes will surely make you choose from their choices. Blue Splashberry - Php 175 For a number of refills you want, this refreshing drink is worth every penny. They give you a new glass which I think is hygienic. No cross-contamination will ever happen just in case you give your used glass to them. Crispy Chicken Salad (Half) - Php 345 Garden greens topped with diced crispy fried chicken, tomatoes, bacon, Jack and Cheddar cheeses, and a hard-boiled egg. Tossed with honey mustard dressing and served with garlic bread. Meaty and chunky, this salad is a good starter.

I chose two bacon strips and New York Cheesecake Pancake. This is quite oily and fatty so make sure that you'll walk around BGC to reduce the excess calories. New York Cheesecake Pancake. This is huge! They use big whole strawberries and whipped cream to top your pancake. Big Steak Omelette - Php 325 Tender strips of steak, hash brown, green peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, and Cheddar cheese. It comes with an Original Buttermilk Pancake. Original Buttermilk Pancake - the pancake we all love. Simple. Try all the pancake syrup with this. These pancake syrups are the bomb! My favorite is butter pecan. Try everything and you'll find your best-loved. IHOP is a great place to have breakfast. Their meals are for those with a hearty appetite. A piece of advice: be patient in waiting for your orders. It takes time for them to cater all the needs of the customers. The good thing is that, they always talk to you with a smile. My tummy was so happy. I will be back, definitely. x

They make everything from scratch using pure, fine and fresh ingredients which all came from the Philippine farms. Every scoop is made no more than 12 to 20 hours prior to consumers’ enjoyment and not stored in freezers for weeks or months. The luxurious silken texture on every spoonful of goodness doesn’t even burn tour tongue. I have proven this because I had two singles scoops and my tongue felt nothing but rich and creamy goodness. Each spoonful of dense gelato contains only 4-8% butterfat that undergone slow churning, which makes the gelato less sugar, less air and more flavorful. They make each flavor in small batches to preserve the freshness with no added artificial additives. You can take home some but you will wait for 15-20 minutes because the tub will undergo blast freezing to ensure that your favorite gelato will at least survive an hour travel time. Speculoos – Php 130 Crunchy bits of cookies and cookie butter that tickles my gums, plus the rich, smooth and creamy vanilla-flavored gelato made me regret of having only a single scoop. I want more, I want more!! Rootbeer Float – Php 130 Imagine your favorite rootbeer float in your favorite pizza parlor, turned into a rich and creamy gelato.

S’mores – Php 130 S’mores, as what we are used to, is made from toasted mallows and graham. A scoop of S’mores from Bono is made up of real marshmallow and graham bits. The smooth and gooey texture plus the light, fluffy and marshmallow-like feeling inside your mouth will make you want more for endless scoops. Yum!! Red Velvet – Php 130 From my first scoop, I never stopped saying, “oh my goodness!” This is a bomb! I thought that my scoop will simply have red velvet crumbs and gelato. The chewy cream cheese swirl was added just the way you want it – not too few, not too much. The slight salty and tangy flavor plus the sweet, rich and creamy gelato and red velvet crumbs will make you feel like you’re eating your favorite red velvet cupcake. Tastes real, tastes good! Taho - Php 130 Frozen soy, tapioca pearls and drizzled with sugar syrup in one scoop? This is amazing. One of the best flavor Bono has ever made. No burns, no regrets.

Let's find our table? ***** I found mine! While choosing your katsu, you'll tend to read the manga on the menu or for a bigger view, check out their walls. Getting your orders by the staff without holding a pen and a paper is really amazing. Well, if they are promoting a paper-less environment, this is very much appropriate and I really appreciate it. Orders taken, time to grind some seeds. To extract the flavors of the black and white sesame seeds, the staff will give you a bowl of black and white sesame seeds. Add two to three scoops of special katsu sauce to match your katsu dish. Special condiments for the cabbage salad. Fifteen minutes later.. Tadaaaaaa!!!! Here's our katsu. Time to dig in!

The radish is so fine and I feel like I'm eating a snow ball! Big meals for big tummies, ayt? They offer unlimited rice, organic cabbage and miso soup. The best part is, they offer both Japanese white rice and organic brown rice. You can choose between the two and I love their brown rice because it feels soft in the palate, cooked the best way it should be.
My friend said that Yabu serves pagkain ng baboy. This does not refer to dirty or mixed meals but on the amount of food Yabu offers. Can you believe that for every set you'll have, you'll have unlimited rice, cabbage and soup? All meat are served in big portions and cooked to perfection. The tenderness from each bite and the crunch from the outside are of perfect match. Thank you, Yabu for great service, wonderful ambiance, yummy food.
