Chocolat, SM Mall of Asia

If you happened to dropped by SM Mall of Asia and finding some desserts to crave on, you may try to check out Chocolat. They serve different varieties of cakes, pastries, hot and cold beverages. You could choose from the simplest one to the unique flavors. Their cakes are displayed through their store window so you will be tempted to buy and try some of their cakes.

Gumbo, SM Mall of Asia

Gumbo literally means a stew or soup which is popular across the US and was originated from New Orleans. Here in the Philippines, it is a restaurant which specializes of course what else but Gumbo but there are also other dishes which is unusual to hear and read the name but once you have seen it, its just a typical ones.

Hidden Treasure Beach Resort, Pagudpud

Another attraction in Pagudpud was the Hidden Treasure Beach Resort, which was really hidden from civilization because it was the only resort in the place and no other establishments were present. It was like a jail far enough that you couldn't escape right away.

Kaibigan Falls, Pagudpud

One of the attractions of Pagudpud is the Kaibigan Falls. It is a 30 minute walk from the national road. There is a store near the national road where you have to pay an entrance fee for the maintenance of the place which is PHP 20 plus a tour guide which is required to have while going there.

The Bar: Always Open!

Have you seen the commercial of these products? They are introduced through a commercial by Jake Cuenca and Angelica Panganiban. I'm not that kind of a drinker but I usually try things that is new and somewhat unusual. These are the two new products from Emperador Distillers Inc. and here's a little trivia.

Mario's, Baguio

Mario's is a fine dining restaurant which has only two branches in the Philippines. One could be found in Quezon City and the other is in Baguio City. Its specialties are ranging from American steaks to some Spanish cuisines. This is one of the places people go to celebrate special occasions.

Confetteria Raffaello

Ferrero was famous because of their Ferrero Rocher chocolates but did you know that they are also the makers of Nutella and Tic Tac?

Boracay: Halowich

Waking up late and running out of time for our flight back to Manila makes us cram for a fast food to munch on but we also like to try foods that could only be found here so we end up just having snacks since the flight is only less than one hour.

Boys II Men Live in Manila!

Boys II Men is famous for the songs like A Song for Mama, On Bended Knee, I Do, 4 Seasons of Loneliness, One Sweet Day, I'll Make Love to You and many more. They are considered as the most successful RnB male vocal group of all time.

eTricycle of The Fort, Taguig

I already heard and watched that the city of Taguig want to have these kind of vehicle but there were only few of them and I thought that it was just only a plan, but by the time I went to The Fort for a visit, these vehicles are already visible.

Joey Pepperoni, SM Mall of Asia

After strolling at the SM Mall of Asia, we are hunting for a food place which we haven't dined in before and passed by Joey Pepperoni.

Tuyom a.k.a Sea Urchin

Warning: The following images maybe disturbing to others, viewer discretion is advised.

Sea urchins are widely found throughout the island of Cebu and its surrounding islands. It is locally known as "tuyom" in Cebuano or Bisayan language. You could found them near the shore or at the deepest side of the ocean. Their sting is very painful, trust me. I've been a victim of these creatures.

Cebu: Pintos

Have you been to Cebu and seen this or tasted it? It seems like a suman (rice cake) at first. But out of the curiosity of my mother, we tried to bought some. It was wrapped in corn's skin and looks like a bread.

Sta Fe Beach Club, Bantayan Island, Cebu

Sta Fe Beach Club and Ogtong Cave Resort have the same owners. The difference between the two is that the Sta Fe Beach Club is much nearer to the beach and has a broad view of it. And since they have the same owner, your visit to the Ogtong Cave Resort will be waived and vice versa.

Basilica of Santo Niño, Cebu

Basilica of Santo Niño was formerly known as the San Agustin Church and was believed that the preserve burned wooden box of Magellan's expedition was found here.
The Cebu's famous Magellan's Cross was just outside the church.

Pinatubo Spa Town

I thought when we reached the Pinatubo Spa Town that was the start of the walking process and thinking that we didn't sign up for a spa experience. Little did we know that preparations and registrations were held here.

Mt. Pinatubo Trekking

After two times of planning, finally our Mt Pinatubo pushed through. Mt. Pinatubo per se is not visible from afar. It borders the provinces of Zambales, Pampanga and Tarlac. It was made famous because of its eruption last June 1991, which the effects of it were felt worldwide. So it was thought in school but we haven't seen it personally that's why we pay a visit.
