Red 8 at Wynn Palace, Macau 永利澳門渡假村

Sometimes, it's a good thing to just pack your bags and go somewhere without thorough planning. That's what we did, and we stumbled upon this casual southern Chinese restaurant, right in the heart of the gorgeous Wynn Palace. Don't get intimidated by the gold tables though, their pricing is surprisingly affordable. 😄

大街餐廳 Main Street Corner Cafe at Hong Kong, Disneyland

You'd think everything in Disneyland is superb, because it's located in one of the most sought after places for both the young and young at heart. They can even jack up their prices and still be able to justify it. However, there's always an exception to the rule. You do follow where I am getting at, right?

大廚房 Big Kitchen at Mong Kok, Hong Kong

Of all the days that it had to rain buckets, it had to be during my much awaited 4-day vacation. 😒 However, that didn't dampen my spirit one bit! After all, it was the perfect moment to enjoy a hot, comforting and hearty bowl of laksa.

Lunch at The Plantation Bar & Bistro

What I like about working in Ortigas Center is that it's a gold mine of food adventures, just waiting to be discovered at each and every corner. The only catch is that things change so fast, sometimes within a blink of the eye. Located in what was previously Red Cloud GastroPub, is where The Plantation has firmly planted its roots. *ba dum tss*

Easy Peasy Tomato Basil Quinoa with Veggies

"A moment on the lips, forever on the hips!" A line delivered by my favorite, Joey Tribbiani of Friends. Funny as it is, it is also painfully true. The past weeks have been stressful for me, staying out late in the office, eating too much fast food and being sleep deprived. It took its toll on me, and by the end of it, I felt bloated, cranky and ugly. Something had to change, and it starts with me.

Banzai, The Great Teppanyaki Theater!

Alas, the delinquent blogger returns! As much as I would love to say that life got in the way, I'd rather be honest and admit that I've lost my mojo. It's times like these when I reassess my life, and try to look for a reason to pickup where I left off... long before the event invites, food and product reviews I was just an average person (I still am!) chronicling my food adventures. So, I figured that the only way to get out of my blogging funk was to go back to basics. TL;DR Lazy blogger took too long to publish post that said buffet restaurant is now closed. For real.

Power Up with Some Damn Good Food at Megawatt, QC

Weekends are meant for chilling out, winding down and just living in the moment. It's when most people have the luxury of time to run their errands, and sneak in some much deserved R&R if there's still time. For folks like me who prefer hitting two birds with one stone, then I've got a great recommendation for you.

Tea-rrific Blends from Bayani Brew #TheBrewCrew

Living in a tropical country is both a blessing and a curse. While I don't have to deal with layers and layers of winter gear, I do have to unwillingly go through my day-to-day activities as if I'm living in one huge sauna. Dehydration is really a big risk, specially now that I've been cutting my expenses and "trying" to commute to and from work, instead of relying on Uber. So, what better way to hydrate than with these quirky and fun flavors from Bayani Brew?

Pinoys always look for "sulit" deals, whether it be a hotel staycation, travel package or a sumptuous buffet deal.

Let Richmonde Café take care of your next all-you-can-eat feast for you and your friends.

Dine Like a Viking at Hot Star Chicken Philippines

If there's one thing my office mates taught me, it's how to be a "budgetarian". Oh, you know! It's the fine, thin line of wanting a feast but at the fraction of the price. Good thing that there's Hot Star Chicken! From humble beginnings in Taiwan, Hot Star has captured the tummies hearts of many and expanded massively in Australia, Hongkong, Indonesia, Macau, Malaysia, Shanghai, Singapore and of course, here in the Philippines. I for one, am not surprised at their success. How can you not get addicted to a juicy piece of gigantic chicken that's fried to golden brown perfection? #foodgasm

Girls Night Out at Johnny Kahuku's Hawaiian Shrimphouse

Aloha, folks! I haven't totally fallen off the grid, as some of you might suspect. I just laid low for much too long. Nevertheless, the delinquent blogger is back, and with new food adventures to boot! First up, Johnny Kahuku's Hawaiian Shrimphouse.
