The Sweet Surrender 2010

I got to attend the Sweet Surrender dessert exhibit of Good Fellas Production, which was held last week at Sitio Elena at the far, far away land of Taytay, Rizal. It took me two hours to get there from our home in Tondo, and hell, yeah, it’s all worth the effort!

There were around 10 exhibitors there who showcased and shared their mouth-watering creations. They are, Med Chef, Ernaline’s Food Haven, Dragonfly Desserts, Gigi’s Custaroons, Bardeli’s Deli and Liquor Mart, The High School Cook Book, Desserts Avenue, Muffins by Doris and there’s Chef Laudico’s BFast, too, who served as the guest judge for the mini contest that the organizers had for this exhibit.

GoodFellas Steaks and Burger

If there’s one steak house that I’ve been dreading to try these past few days, that’ll be Good Fellas Steaks and Burgers at Kamuning Road in Quezon City. 

I’ve been hearing a lot of “not-so-good” stuff about this place, and now that I’ve got an invitation to try this place and experience the Good Fellas taste and style, I think it’s time to somehow prove them wrong.

On my first-ever visit, we tried different stuff from every category of their menu.

Vain, Smart and Sleek Lunch with Chef JJ Yulo

A few day ago, I had one of the most memorable lunch in my whole life. I had a chance to dine with the very nice people of Samsung Philippines over the magnificent dishes of Chef JJ Yulo of Pinoy Eats World (http://www.pinoyeatsworld.com).

Indulge with Sweet Surrender

One thing about holidays is that there are a lot of exhibits or trade fair about food. There are exhibits or trade fairs for local dishes, international cuisines, up and coming food establishments and some are exhibits that showcased dishes that are perfect for this coming holiday - may it be for groups, families, friends, may it be for lunch, for dinner, for merienda and my most favourite part, for dessert.

That's why I'm sharing to all the food lover/dessert lovers in the metropolis this great news! This coming Saturday, November 13, at Sitio Elena at Origas Avenue Extension, a grand fair of mouth-watering, eye-catching and captivating aroma dessert that you can find in and out of the metro - the Sweet Surrender.

The Sisig for the Vegetarians

They may not admit it, but I can feel how envy vegetarians are every time they hear the word "sisig" or see someone enjoying a sizzling plate of pork sisig with egg on top. Oooh, the smell, the craclking sound and the wonderful taste... I can't blame them.

Well, now, since I got a chance to visit the exhibit of Likha ng Central Luzon, lemme share to you, my dear vegetarian readers, this wonderful offering that came from the leading onion producer and main rice growing province of the country, Nueva Ecija!

Rustan's Red Tag Sale is My Winning Lotto Ticket!

Remember the Rustan's gift check that I received from winning in a game on an event a few months ago? Well, here's what happened to it.

Since I'm having a hard time looking for some nice looking, branded clothes that can go with my budget (the worth of that gift check), I decided to dump the idea and the luck that I'll be able to find something at Rustan's.

Rustan's sucks! BIGTIME!

One of my greatest dream really, being the poor guy me, is to go on a shopping spree at Rustan's. Unfortunately, that will not happen anytime soon... *sigh*

I can never afford to shop at Rustan's...

Big Daddy's Chicken Chops set to Counquer Pinoys' Love for Chicken

Being in the business for almost two years now, Big Daddy's Chicken had its first branch at Greenhills Mall. It's main goal is to share to all foodies the wonderful and yummy-tasting chicken chops of Taiwan. And with good partnership and passion for business and food, BDC managed to give its patron the food that they want in a quick span of time.

And now, as the good partnership of Kim and Jerry continues, they just recently opened Big Daddy's Chicken branch at the largest mall in Asia - SM Mall of Asia.

Located at the ground floor of the Entertainment Mall of SM Mall of Asia, I was invited to it's bloggers' night a few weeks ago, and though I'm not expecting much about it, I must say that their chicken - chicken chop - was really worth my time and effort.

Bubble Tea: Coffee out, BBT In!

Whenever I hear the word Tokyo, Osaka or any place in Japan, there's this butterfly thingy happening inside me that makes me so giddy and happy at the same time. I don't know what's that, but it always brings smile to my face.

When I was a kid, my father left for Japan to work. And until now, I feel really happy looking at his pictures during his stay there - the cool climate, the rich tradition, the fusion of minimalism and intricate designs and the wonderful Japanese dishes that I'm so in love with. I wanna go to Japan really soon!

But before I pursue this dream of mine, I wanna share to you all this new foodie haven that I visited at Tomas Morato - the Bubble Tea.

I remember, not so long ago, I got so addicted to this brand of pearl shake, that I even got to the point where I lose my voice because of drinking too much of it. Hahaha!

And now, I think, I'll be addicted again, but this time to a healthier and yummier drink - milk tea!
