[2018-12-08] The date is a special one for Catholics specially Marian devotees. This is probably the reason why the blessing pushed through even if the building is not yet 100% finished. Once finished, the building will house the once distributed ‘working areas’ in one roof. The building will also house a restaurant, function rooms and…

Bench Café Greenbelt 3 Makati
[2018-12-14] The branch is still ‘under construction’ specially the façade and parts of the dining area (from what I can see). We arrived late coming from another meetup at the other end of the MRT. It took around 3 hours travel time. It was also raining so I totally missed my usual photo routine and…
Chiow Express Boni Avenue Mandaluyong
[2018-12-15] A foodie I met for the first time in a recent meetup invited me to this one. The place is in front of the Mandaluyong City Medical Center. We were able to sample a few of their items My favorite, hototay. I used to always order hototay at a restaurant better known for chicken…
Starbucks Reserve (North Tower) Bago Bantay QC
[2018-12-14] After a very satisfying meal, the ‘naughty’ birthday celebrant-to-be treated some of us to one of my favorite after meal activity, coffee. This branch is quite nice though I still like the first Starbucks Reserve branch I have been to better. I ordered my usual hot latte and thankfully it was the way I…
Teppanya Bago Bantay QC
[2018-12-14] I was waiting at a burger place for the mall to open and after opening I found out the North Tower is another building (the former SuperSale Club site). Fortunately, after crossing ‘The Block’, Teppanya is quite near the entrance. The only other branch of Teppanya before this one is located at Evia which…
McDonald’s Bago Bantay QC
[2018-12-05] & [2018-12-14] This branch opens earlier than the mall opening hours. I had meetups scheduled at SM North EDSA on the 5th & 14th at 11am with is the time the mall opens but I normally arrive almost an hour before due to traffic avoidance. On the 5th, rather than wait outside the mall…
INT. Cubao QC
[2018-12-05] This place is literally a hole in the wall (or hole in photobooth?). The place is not big but feel cozy somehow, specially the 2nd floor. There are a few dissimilar tables and chairs. It felt safe and relaxing. You can be 1, 2 or 6 or more at a table and still be…
Inumart Kamuning QC
[2018-12-06] We have had convenience stores, bars and ‘paluto’ for years already but we never had something like this (did we?) until now. It is basically a convenience store, bar (albeit self service), paluto (albeit limited options) in one. You can buy beverages (alcoholic/non-alcoholic, and drink it there), snacks, items that need cooking, etc. (and…
Bistro Charlemagne Dela Paz Pasig
[2018-12-09] Charlemagne in Nuvali was one of the six restaurant Tagaytay/Sta Rosa food crawl I was able to join recently. I liked the food I there so when an opportunity to join a meetup at the Feliz branch came up, I did not hesitate to join. Click to read review of Nuvali branch The mall…
Ukokkei Japan by Menzo Bago Bantay QC
[2018-12-05] Aside from eating good food/finding good restaurants, meeting new friends is one of the things I enjoy when I go to foodie meetups. This foodie meetup at Ukokkei is a result of finding one albeit not a face-to-face meetup but an online one. Ukkokei will be having a soft opening on December 6 and…
