RANT: DADS, Saisaki & Kamayan Mega

We haven't eaten here for a very, very long time so we were super excited when we got invited to a birthday dinner. Alas, we are not happy with our dinner tonight. :(

Except for the tempura and kare-kare (very tender tripe), the rest of the food either tastes bland, salty, bland, salty. Really, everything tastes the same or lack some flavor.

Another saving grace (for me) was the ice-cream. I love the mocha ice-cream and had a generous sprinkle of tiny mallows, chocolate bits and gummy bears. Had to servings of ice-cream.

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!
