Cafe by the Ruins (in the morning)
Because it was so hot in Manila, me and Sharlyne went to Baguio City and stayed there overnight. We really made the most out of our Baguio City trip by having dinner and having breakfast at Cafe by the Ruins. I like the ambiance of their restaurant. You’ll feel like you’re just eating at the comfort of your own garden.

I’ve been to Davao a lot of times but there are still a lot of things to explore! Davao is huge and one visit is not enough. Sharlyne and I are very excited to be one of the chosen lucky participants of this year’s DFAT (Davao Food Appreciation Tour). Our gastronomic feast begins tomorrow, May 4, 2012 and our Davao food tripping will end on May 7, 2012.
Posted here is our itinerary from May 4 – May 7. Read more »
Hainanese Chicken Rice @ PHP 220
Some say that the chicken rice from Hai Chix & Steaks is to die for so when a group site had this, we bought it immediately. The voucher say didn’t say where its exact location was in Ortigas Home Depot so we had to call them. Suddenly, we realized that it was located at the old Obsidian Bar, which was previously owned by our friend. Karla and I chuckled because the place changed from being a simple open-aired bar filled where independent and mainstream local bands performed to an upscale restaurant which serves eastern and western cuisine.

Cafe Uma’s Boneless Chicken Inasal at PHP 350+ per order
Masskara Festival in Bacolod is a very busy season for all restaurants and hotel owners who are based where the action is. While we were there last October, we went to Lacson Street where the Electric Masskara was happening. The street is closed and each and every restaurant was filled with people. It was already 10 pm and we haven’t eaten our dinner yet so out of desperation, Cafe Uma was the only restaurant without much people so we decided to have dinner there. When we looked at the menu, we already knew why the restaurant wasn’t filled with people, it’s because of their steep prices. I already knew that Cafe Uma has the same owners with Trattoria Uma, an Italian restaurant a few steps away from Cafe Uma. Because we are really so hungry, we didn’t care about the prices anymore. We were assured by the waiter that they their food is good. Read more »
Pecho with Garlic Rice
I first tried the inasal of JT’s Manukan Grille several years ago with Sharlyne and some of our friends. I remember we went to the first branch of JT’s which is located at the corner of Valencia and Granada Streets. For me and Sharlyne, the chicken inasal at JT’s is our favorite. Read more »
