This is Halo-Halo. Composed of a mix of different ingredients like sweet mung beans, nata de coco, kaong, crispy rice (pinipig), ube, and leche flan topped over shaved ice with two scoops of ice cream on top, it is undoubtedly one of my most favorite desserts of all time. Can you just taste how special [...]

The Taste of Boston is a small canteen-ish food shack on Ballast Point Pier and Park in Tampa. At first, it appears to be just like any other place to get fast seafood. However, wait until you taste their food! My daughter loved loved loved their New England Clam Chowder! It’s creamy and tasty and [...]

You can’t visit Atlanta and not drop by The Varsity. The hotdogs aren’t really all that (sorry Mr. Gordy!) but, you can’t beat the experience of driving-in at the world’s largest drive-in restaurant. What’ll ya have! What’ll ya have! Aside from it’s size, you might ask what other things make The Varsity special? Well, two [...]

This one is a long overdue post about my birthday lunch. Let me tell you (though belatedly) about my and hubby’s new favorite fresh and light restaurant, Seasons 52. They have a different menu for lunch and for dinner, and their lunch menu is actually quite affordable (which is why we make it a point [...]

Right after school last Friday, I took my daughter to the Lemonade Days event at nearby Brook Run Park. It was a day filled with amusement park rides, games, and more! But of course, what’s a carnival without all the yummy food? A naked dog and a chili dog from The Varsity, the world’s largest [...]

Confident that our burglar alarm system back home was armed and working, we travelled south for the Spring Break. We were in St. Petersburg, FL last Sunday and, for dinner, we headed over to Cha Cha Coconuts at the 5th floor of The Pier. The restaurant offered a savory selection of seafood, sandwiches and other [...]

After spending the past few weeks busying myself with finding a car insurance for our cars (it’s really not as easy as some people say it is), I finally, I found the time to continue featuring some of the eateries we’ve visited these past few weeks. This week, let me present our local Filipino food [...]

We held a second-part despedida lunch for our friends at Nori Nori, a japanese and seafood buffet restaurant along Roswell Road the day after our surprise despedida dinner the previous night. Actually, the lunch was an impromptu one, perhaps because we couldn’t really see ourselves cutting the cord between us and our departing friends just [...]

Visiting Orlando is not complete without doing two things: meeting up with our Orlando-based friends and going to Downtown Disney. So that’s what we did last weekend. We opted to have dinner at the newly-opened T-Rex Cafe right smack between Pleasure Island and the MarketPlace. It has almost the same concept as Rainforest Cafe (if [...]

A couple of my girlfriends and I saw Twilight, the movie, the other week. And where else best to see it than at the AMC Fork and Screen. It was a Tuesday and the very first morning screening when we went so there weren’t many people at the theater. Naturally, it called for a photo [...]
