Banapple, Ayala Triangle Gardens

I was really craving for something sweet and never tried something from Banapple. They only have 3 branches in the metro so its hard to buy and try their desserts right away. Fortunately, they had opened their new branch at the Ayala Triangle Gardens, which would now cater people from the south of Manila and the office workers within the vicinity.

A friend of mine really liked Taco Bell but the nearest branch to our place was in Cubao. I wanted to go food-tripping on a Saturday night and suggested to try Ristras since it was like Taco Bell, which serves burritos, nachos and everything-like-that.

Bo's Coffee, Star Cruises Centre

Since the coffee houses invaded the metro, I haven't tried drinking coffee here at Bo's Coffee. Most of us would rather buy coffee drinks from the famous coffee shops like Starbucks or at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, which has more branches available nationwide. We are supposed to have our chit chats at Starbucks but he place as usual was crowded. Then Java+ at the Marriott because we could have discounts there. Unfortunately, we arrived there just in time for their closing at 10pm.

Greenbelt 3 : Kitchen

Kitchen was one of my favorite spot in Greenbelt 3 since it opened . Fortunately, its still up and serving their unique dishes. The last time I visited the place was 3 years ago and the place was still great with a homey feeling because of its interiors, the coolness of the air-con and the price was still the same when it opened despite several competitions from other restaurants. It seems that nothing had changed except the addition of pizza from their menu.

It was my mom's birthday when my dad just got home and he has some desserts and pastries on hand. It was Conti's Turtle Pie. Haven't tried it because we always order their Mango Bravo because of its over-whelming size and flavor. We haven't tried dining in to one of their restaurants because its always jammed packed, maybe some other time.
