Larcys Cupcakery Cafe BF Homes Paranaque

A restaurant's ambiance is a must for me that's why Larcy's Cupcakery Cafe in BF Homes captured my heart in an instant. It has a nice cozy atmosphere that made my dining experience more dreamy and indelible. 

The place is quite roomy to hold guests. My sister and I sat in the corner so we could take a better view of the whole cafe. 

The pasta was flavorful. I didn't expect it to be SOO delicious knowing that Larcy's specialty is dessert (cupcakes). I literally scraped my plate with fork. (eh masarap kasi talaga)

The cupcake is the highlight of our toothy merienda at Larcy's. I got the pineapple carrot cake which I devoured in less than 5 minutes. Definitely, a winner for me 'cause it isn't too sweet.

Cafe Mediterranean Alabang Town Center

I am the kind of person who likes trying out new things especially when it comes to food. Just recently, Baby and I went for a quick lunch at Cafe Mediterranean in Alabang Town Center. Obviously, this restaurant serves Mediterranean dishes. I have strong liking in the food we have ordered, Gyro Platter. 

Gyro Platter is good for two people. We went for regular pita instead of rice for a change. It is made up of strips of beef, tuna and chicken, Falafel and strips on grilled zucchini and eggplant and is served with Tzatziki and Shepherd's salad. The meat has great flavor and taste especially when dipped into their special sauces. My mouth was partying the entire time because of the succulent and flavorful food I devoured.

Size Matters Alabang Town Center

Hungarian sausage from Size Matters, Alabang Town Center is what I've munched on during the movie, Kingsman: the Secret Service at Alabang Town Center. The movie was awesome. It was action-packed and the characters played their roles very well. 

Baby and I enjoyed the movie even more because of the delish snacks we've devoured. Baby got herself the all-beef burger while I went for the hungarian sausage sandwich. The taste of the hungarian sausage sandwich wasn't that spectacular but I really liked the bread they've used. It has some butter on it which made it a lot tastier and more delightful to eat. 

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to taste my baby's all-beef burger. But she's said it really did make her palate extremely happy.

S and R Festival Supermall

Pizza is my ultimate comfort food. I'm just glad that my favorite pizza place, S&R has opened a branch in Festival Supermall. No need to have a S&R Membership card for you to purchase. Hooray for that! 

The combo flavor has always been my top choice. It's packed with meat and veggie toppings which makes this pizza flavor my instant favorite. I have tried cheese and pepperoni too but I'd still go with my first love. They also have bacon cheeseburger flavor that I'd like to try on my next visit. 

S&R is also selling calzone, chicken, churros, french fries and salad. They are all tempting and sometimes I couldn't help but salivate. But I need to curb my food cravings. I gained a little weight and I really am having a hard time getting rid of the belly fats. So probably, my next visit to S&R would be on my Mom's birthday. That is two months from now. Teehee!

Market Basket Riverpark Festival Supermall

It was late Sunday afternoon when we went out for a family dinner. My mom who adores Pinoy food so much, chose Market Basket, which is located at the Riverpark in Festival Supermall Alabang. According to my research, Market Basket is owned by Hilario "Larry" Cortez of the Chef's Quarter Group. Would you believe  that this restaurant genius was a former security guard? He also owns Bossings, Chef Barrel, Kuse and Uncle Cheffy. 

Not only that, the co-owner, Chef Mauro Arjona Jr. was a former dishwasher in a restaurant where Hilario Cortez also worked. Isn't it amazing? Their hardwork really paid off!  Anyway, Market Basket is like a modern dampa. If you are familiar with it or seafood paluto then you may already know what it is. But since my mom isn't the adventurous type, we just let the restaurant staff handle everything. 

It was definitely a feast. We've had fried calamares, pork sisig, chopsuey, grilled tanigue and sinigang na salmon belly (not on the photo). Their pork sisig is one of the best I've ever tasted. I'm really not a pro in describing my gastronomic adventures but my Market Basket experience was truly splendid!

Kenji Tei Alabang Town Center

Baby and I have agreed to try all the restaurants in our favorite shopping mall in the south, Alabang Town Center, especially the ones we haven't tried before. We have been to a few and mostly, they were Japanese restaurants. Yes, that's how crazy we are for Japanese cuisine! Just yesterday, we headed to Kenji Tei for some ramen and salmon sushi for our late lunch. We have decided to sit near the entrance door so we could take photos without getting the attention of others. 

I had large bowl of Shoyu Ramen (P325) while Baby had Spicy Negi Ramen (P365). My Shoyu Ramen has similar taste with the one I've had in Greenbelt recently. Baby allowed me to have a taste of her ramen and I liked it more. My palette loves anything spicy 'cause it gives out an extra kick and it helps lessen the umay factor. I just wished that they've added up some veggies in the Spicy Negi Ramen. It was all pork which isn't really a good idea especially for health conscious individuals. I liked the salmon sushi(P145) too, but I'd always be a salmon sashimi lover.

The Grill by Antonios Tagaytay

Since we were celebrating a very special occasion, my 29th birthday, Baby took me to a fancy restaurant in Tagaytay (The Grill by Antonio's). It really was not cold and chilly when we visited Tagaytay. It was just a normal weather but I still opted to wear my newly-bought sweater. Teehee! 

The place gives out a homey vibe and is quite spacious to accommodate guests. I love the staff's attentiveness and focus to details. If ever you need anything, they would happily assist you in the best-est possible way. 

We've had pork barbeques (which is priced at P45 each), ginataang kalabasa,  la paz batchoy, and turon with tikoy for dessert. I liked everything especially the turon with tikoy. My tastebuds loved it!

It was very appetizing and definitely the best way to end a hearty meal.

Teriyaki Boy Festival Mall

It is kind of peculiar for my family to try out new things. They always go for the ones they are used to, which I dislike at times. That is why I really was surprised when my dad took us for a dinner treat at Teriyaki Boy in Festival Mall-Alabang. 

California Maki Roll... This is DELICIOSO! My dad loved it too despite not being a huge fan of Japanese cuisine. 

Ta-Da! This is the highlight of our scrumptious dinner at Teriyaki Boy... It is called the Lechon Kawali salad. It has lechon kawali pieces on top with carrots, cucumber and lettuce. The wasabi dressing made it EXTRA special. 

Unfortunately, I was not able to take photos of all the dishes we have ordered... But they were all good!

Yellow Cab Delivery

Yellow Cab... We meet again! Many thanks to my little sister who sponsored my YUMMY merienda this afternoon. 

New York's Finest.... Every bite was divine! It was just too oily for me though. 

This is Charlie Chan Chicken pasta. It has shiitake mushrooms, chicken strips and roasted peanuts. The spicy oriental sauce makes this dish extra special. 

The Twice Baked Potato Halves are real good! It is loaded with mozzarella and romano cheese topped with bacon bits. It is served with sour cream dip. 

My sister and I almost finished all of these in just one sitting. My mom did not eat anything because she's been feeling under the weather these past few days.

Great Weekend with Baby and Kulasa Friends

Happy Monday, guys! Hope you all had a great weekend. As for me, I had a perfect weekend 'cause I spent it with my baby and Kulasa friends. By the way, Kulasa is called for students who are studying at St. Scholastica's College. I was a former pre-med student at St.Scholastica's College-Manila but I've decided to shift to B.A International Studies after 3 years. Anyway, we had a dinner date at Seafood Island in Trinoma. It actually was a treat from Jovy who just came home from Qatar. We went for an all pork dinner that includes: lechon kawali, pork barbeque, sinigang na baboy and sisig. Afterwards, Sir Kenneth, our former B.S Biology professor, took us for a gelato dessert at Gellatisimo. Even if we didn't see each other for almost 2 years, nothing really has changed. No awkward feelings or whatever. It was definitely a night filled with fun and laughter!

Eat-all-you-can Samgyeopsal

 

Eat-all-you-can restaurants are simply the best. I'm just blessed that I have the budget to spoil myself sometimes. But it's so much better when someone would take you out for a lunch or dinner date, right? Teehee! Last June 8th, Baby and I celebrated our 22nd monthsary by going to this fancy Korean/Vietnamese restaurant at Angeles City, Pampanga called Phoa Noi.

The eat-all-you-can Samgyeopsal for only P250 instantly caught our attention so we both agreed to have our dinner/monthsary celebration there. The place was a bit old but tidy. We had to occupy one of the tables outside since we had to use the griller. Surprisingly, everything was unlimited (iced tea, meat & vegetables). For vegetables, they served us the famous Korean kimchi, lettuce and kangkong among others. The food was A-OK! I didn't like their service though. The waitresses were a bit cranky and unfriendly.
