[2019-May-18] After our workshop at the ICE (Institute for Coffee Excellence) ), we had lunch at TGC (The Giving Cafe) which is also owned by the group. It is located right across ICE. (Click here for details of the experience) You’d be welcomed by this cat. We had pancit, chicken, sweet and sour pork… …..

Institute for Coffee Excellence
[2019-May-18] Basic Manual Coffee Brewing Workshop With all the new ‘excitement’ and anticipation we see for establishments offering drink varieties other than coffee (some coffee places and fastfoods even started to include milk teas in their menu!), coffee and coffee places seemed to have been relegated to the background. Though I also like and drink…
October 2018 Tokyo Day #4
I am sure this is one day we ate a lot from the unlimited breads buffet. We didn’t have to leave early. If I were to choose, I wouldn’t have included this in the itinerary. If the past two days were chilly due to rainy weather, this day was sunny and extremely hot. Thinking it…
October 2018 Tokyo Day 4 – Precce Shibuya Deli Market
Though we had a really filling breakfast, the heat and all the walking made us hungry and we just looked for a place to eat near where we were. While browsing this small supermarket looking place, we noticed they also offer food to eat and a place to eat it too. It is a not…
October 2018 Tokyo Day 4 – Mugi to Olive (Clam Ramen)
My daughter and I didn’t plan to eat here but two other ramen shops we wanted to try and went to were closed so we ended up here. The shop is also Michelin rated. I can’t remember what each of us ordered but mine had sardines and her’s did not. What I remember is that…
Dough Creamery, Bago Bantay, QC
[2019-Apr-29] The mall sprawl in this vicinity continues. Just in this corner owned by SM, North Tower has sprouted. This is where the first branch of Dough Creamery is located. It is basically an ice cream shop that sells ice cream served on doughs, gets? They also sell drinks with ice cream. On the day…
October 2018 Tokyo Day #3
During the planning of this trip both my daughter and I am aware that Tsukiji market will be closing and so we wanted to experience it at least once. Not the auction but rather eating there 🙂 When we arrived we thought the queue was short (second store from right) but realized later that those…
October 2018 Tokyo Day 3 – Ichiran Ramen
Ichiran is one of the ramen places we wanted to try and thankfully, no significant wait time for our eating experience. They even have a place where you can leave your luggage. By this time we are used to the routine of ordering/paying via machine. But you are still provided an order sheet to indicate…
October 2018 Tokyo Day 3 – Nakiryu
My daughter and I both like ramen and we wanted to try a few Michelin rated ramen places in Tokyo. Nakiryu is one of those we wanted to try. Getting to this place during the night requires navigating some dimly lit alleys and streets so it will be better if you’re with a companion or…
October 2018 Tokyo Day 3 – Nakaya at Tsukiji
Knowing that Tsukiji market was closing very soon, we wanted to make sure we will be able to eat in one of the food places there before the market is closed for good. (It actually closed the day after we ate I think, but it was during our Tokyo Trip. We even saw a protest…
