Choco-late de Batirol

This secret garden-type restaurant is a must-visit place if you happen to be in Baguio. It is located somewhere near Camp John Hay area. The place is very relaxing and the sound of birds and insects can be heard. However, since the place is full of plants, be sure to wear jeans and a jacket since there are mosquitoes even in broad daylight.

There are lots of pasalubongs to choose from. Cookies, jam, chicharon, tablea, etc.

Bibingka. Piping-hot! And with a generous topping of grated coconut. Yum yum.

Suman. Not the sweet kind. Great paired with the hot chocolate that we ordered.

Hot Chocolate. So nice to drink hot chocolate when you're in Baguio. Wanna know why? ;)

NEW RESTO ALERT: Saigosan in Uptown Mall

Konnichiwa Saigosan! A new and funky izakaya recently opened at Uptown Mall headed by Chef Chris Oronce. This izakaya not only serves delectable dishes but is also a visual-feast. Inspired by animes, mangas, and JPop culture, Saigosan even has a train wherein you can hop from Kyoto to Osaka without a JR Pass!

Salcedo Market x Legaspi Market Tour

We haven't visited the weekend markets for years so I was giddy with excitement because I was able to visit both Salcedo and Legaspi markets this month, thanks to our Dusit Thani Manila staycation . To differentiate the two, Salcedo market is held every Saturday at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village Makati while Legaspi market is held every Sunday at the Corinthian Carpark in Legaspi Village Makati. Since we were coming from Dusit Thani Manila, it was quite a long walk but it was early in the morning (around 8AM) and even Ayala and Makati Avenues were still without cars. Wow!

NEW RESTO ALERT: Hà Nội Phố (Ha Noi Pho)

Makati has been a go-to place for my family and I to grab a meal or sometimes just to have a cup of coffee. Though, really, it’s mostly just us visiting our favorite spots. Recently, my mom went out of town so it was just my dad and I who went out for dinner.
