A little bit of a tourist trap, but part of traveling is savoring local dishes that has tagged to a particular destination. You have heard it all “ You have never been in _____ if you haven’t tasted _____“. In Iloilo of course, it’s batchoy. Hmmm..comfort food especially […]
The Oyster House Seafood Restaurant
During certain days of the month, hubby is on a “tense” mode hoping his district would reach their target sales. While waiting for updates from his team and me “working”, I bought him lunch ( a rare occasion for 10 years of being together. haha!). We went to Oyster House […]
Sinamay and Cookie House in Iloilo
I think we are all guilty of bringing back home some goodies after some days of R&R. Aside from photos and maybe t-shirts, local delicacies are one of the most common souvenir items to buy. In Iloilo, you can take home the biscocho but I highly recommend visiting […]
Andres Special Pata
If you are looking for a calorific and some off-the-beaten-path meal destination while in Iloilo City, then head to Andres Special Pata in Molo. Still working on a commissioned freelance writing assignment for a travel magazine, I intentionally included this chow place that has become an institution when it […]
Madge Cafe
I’m back! Don’t ask why I’m gone and where I’ve been. Basta, I’m glad to be back. I’ve been really cranky lately because I miss my blog. Yup, this is my sojourn. So to welcome myself in the blogging world, I will share on of my vanities in life..coffee. Just […]
Doming’s Talabahan

Mr. A’s Restaurant in Cebu
As a vibrant and well visited city, Cebu hosts plenty of restaurants offering different cuisines from around the world. A walk to the Terraces of Ayala Cebu will support this claim with restaurants and cafe clumping in this section. One of my favorite restaurants in Cebu is Mr A’s located […]
Sharyn’s Cansi House
One of Pinoy’s guilty pleasures when it comes to food is bulalo. A comfort food of boiled beef shanks and bone marrow with pieces of vegetables. A “cardiac delight” for its notorious cholesterol but hey, a bowl of bulalo can warm our placid stomachs. And if you are in Bacolod, […]
Coffee Break at Jilla’s Cafe
It’s no secret that I am a coffee lover and my brother who made this website made a tagline “Freelance Writer and Coffee Addict” . Well maybe he is exxagerating but yeah, I love coffee from the time I was about 3 or 4 when I would sip the last […]
