Bona’s Chaolong in Puerto Princesa, Palawan

Even when I first came to Palawan I’ve noticed that on almost all the municipalities there are vietnamese restaurants. Apparently, in the past there were many Vietnamese who went to Palawan and shared their cooking to the locals. When I asked one of my friends where to dine in Puerto Princesa other than the famous spots like Kalui, Kinabuch, Balinsasayaw and Badjao Seafront Restaurant she told me...

Mr. Kimbob Korean Health Food

My mother discovered Mr. Kimbob Korean Health Food in the food court in SM Masinag when she was desperately looking for good yet cheap food. That’s why when we got timid in cooking our lunch we decided to go to SM Masinag and try it. We ordered their best sellers Spicy Pork Dubbob (P75), Beef Bibimbob with soup (P99) and Japche (P60). With only the two of us, I think we ordered too much! Was it good?...

Palawan Noni Juice by B.O.G. Coffee Shop

I was waiting for my flight back to Manila in Puerto Princesa, Palawan when I decided to walk around the departure waiting area due to boredom. Then I saw this sign I’ve seen a lot of noni fruits on my travels around the country, mostly in off-the-beaten path beaches but this is the first time I saw that they make it as juice. I ordered one (1) Noni Juice for 140 Pesos. A bit hurtful for my budget...

King Bee’s Pork Siomai and Hacao

I was commanded by my mother to buy dinner at one of my favorite Chinese restaurants, King Bee. Aside from the list that she gave me I ordered additional dimsums, Pork Siomai and Steamed Shrimp Dumpling (Hacao) since I love their taste and texture especially when dipped in soy sauce with kalamansi and chili. Thinking about them makes me want to order them again. Take Out Expense P80.00 Pork...

Nissin Cup Noodles Seafood

Whenever I’m depressed and stressed out from work I always look for this guy. My instant favorite noodles Nissin Cup Seafood. A comfort in a cup. I first tried this when my mother went to Japan and brought home this one of a kind cup noodles. So when I have finished my first bowl I looked for it in the supermarket and fortunately, it’s also here in the Philippines. Unfortunately, the ones in...

Bubba Gump at Greenbelt 3, Ayala Center, Makati

I remember myself walking to Trinoma to dine at Bubba Gump but there was no longer a Bubba Gump there! When my parents wanted to dine out and said that they are willing to try Bubba Gump, I excitedly said yes. I love their food! Calling Waiters/Waitress Don’t you just hate raising your hands in restaurants just to call servers? There were many times that I had my hands raised for more than 2 minutes...
