Something's Brewing at The Summer Palace

Saw this on fb early today and I just wanted to share the love. Had a nice dimsum lunch at the Summer Palace last September, see blog post here. and we really enjoyed our meal. And now it's back and for the whole month of November, too. Wow!

"We are bringing it back! Savor a scrumptious dim sum buffet paired with soup, noodles and dessert prepared by Summer Palace's new Chinese Chef Christopher Chai. Usually served fried or steamed, these bite-sized pockets of seafood, meat and vegetables are well enjoyed with a warm cup of tea."

Php 688++ per person; reservations are highly encouraged

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!

Boracay's Hidden Gem: Mama's Fish House

I've always wanted to dine at Mama's Fish House in Boracay but wasn't able to for some forgotten reasons already. Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity!
