Spanish bread
—
in EatMy parents used to buy spanish bread regularly for us when we were kids. It really is just called “Spanish bread” at home, and everyone knows what it is. We were a colony of Spain for hundreds of years so it made sense in my head. 🥹 In my 5 years in Melbourne, I’ve found…

Maundy Thursdate at Saint’s Alp, Katipunan
—
in EatHonestly, I’m not the most religious person out there so my idea of a Holy Week holiday well-spent is getting some work done with C (though 50% of the time we’re just playing Scramble and Words with Friends, haha). While most malls and establishments are expected to be closed during Holy Week, there are (thankfully)…

New Year Pig-Out
—
in EatMy long weekend had basically been a period of pigging out. Saturday we celebrated Jaime’s birthday with some food and drinks at Ang Pulo. It was also my brother’s birthday, which he celebrated with the family on Sunday. That meant a whole day at Greenbelt of eating (Kenji Tei), movies, and then more food (Starbucks,…

Dessert Blends at Raintree
—
in EatAs Raintree is now me and C’s default go-to place on Saturdays, I just wanted to share about our love for their Dessert Blends! Before Raintree, I wouldn’t have considered buying anything that isn’t milk tea or tea. But their dessert blends have completely changed me. When we drop by Raintree, I don’t order milk…

Salad and soup at Uncle Cheffy
—
in EatJust to break the semi-serious and semi-delirious posts on my personal life, I come with two of my favorite dishes from Uncle Cheffy. I’m lucky that they’re basically just a street away from where I work so when I’m not in saving mode, C and I can choose to have lunch there. Which is how…

End-of-the-year Tagaytay Datetrip
I’ve been wanting to get out of the city for a long time now, and I’ve honestly been feeling sick getting cooped up in the middle of all these buildings and of everything familiar. I confessed to C that I wanted to just get a ticket to somewhere and then fly out spontaneously, without plans…

Off Beat: Home of the Donut Burger
—
in EatC and I dropped by Fully Booked at High Street for a book launch of a project which Kasey and Create.PH worked on. We were all hungry so we decided to grab a quick dinner and C wanted to go to Krispy Creme because, he said, they sell donut burgers now. He just saw one…

Dinner with friends at Yabu: House of Katsu
—
in EatC and I met up with Angelica and Kasey to have some dinner at Yabu: House of Katsu (2nd Floor Atrium, Megamall). I work in Ortigas but I didn’t even know of the restaurant until Kasey texted raving about it. After reading Carina’s blog entry about it, I became more excited to eat there! (Although…

Tea and more at Raintree
—
in EatTwo weeks ago, C and I tried getting milk tea from Raintree Teapresso Blends near White Plains (exact address: 141 Katipunan Avenue, St. Ignatius Village, QC). It’s right before the intersection to Katipunan Ext., if you’re going towards Ateneo. I got curious because Gail mentioned how she loved going there with her dad. I ordered…
