Patchi Chocolates

One of the finest chocolates I've tasted. Before, I just waited for someone to hand carry some for me but now, Patchi has its own boutique in Bonifacio High Street (there's also a branch in Greenbelt 5). Now I can just visit the store whenever I have some serious chocolate cravings. Cool, right?



Patchi originated in Lebanon in 1974 by Nizar Choucair. It is one of the leading and well known brand of chocolate in the Middle East region and is now available in 29 countries. (source: Wikipedia)

Nizar Choucair, the founder of Patchi grew up surrounded by chocolates since his family, including uncles are chocolate makers. Chocolate is in his blood, he says proudly. (source: Sweet Taste of Sparkling Success.



This elegantly-wrapped chocolates may seem expensive but if you won't buy the box (the packaging is what makes it expensive) and simply indulge in the chocolate itself, then you'll be a one happy and satisfied customer. The store sells by piece also and price ranges from PhP35 to PhP75 (that's less than $1 to about $1.50), not bad. Besides, these are gourmet chocolates so you need to savor each piece slowly. ;)

And I'd like to commend the staff at the BHS branch for being friendly while helping me with my choices and giving suggestions. Too bad I forgot to take their photos (senior moment).




Look at that display! Lovely, lovely chocolates. I think I want to stay here forever. :D



My fave Patchi, btw are the dark chocolate ones. Really, really good!

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! 

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!
