The hubby and I spent another quality time together at the mall buying groceries and some other stuff. After we strolled the gadget section of SM Lanang Premier, we saw Bhajia Grilled Pizza just before we reached the escalators. So, we decided to try out their pizza and judge them ourselves. It was a lucky day because while we decided on what flavor to order, the staff announced that they were on a Buy One Take One promo for just PhP 250.00. Lucky, indeed. Hawaiian Pizza Carnivore's Choice The pizzas tasted good. I liked both pizzas. We bought...

With just 9 months to go before our big day, the hubby and myself went to ran some wedding prep errands. We were able to book our desired wedding date at Hotel Tropika and also bought some materials needed for our invites. After the tiring search for the paper factory (which we never found), we were so famished! So I told the hubby that we were eating at this buffet restaurant somewhere in Torres St. I learned about Yahong Restaurant while I hung out at Yoh Froz with my girlfriends the previous day. So I decided it was...

My friends and I met on Sunday afternoon and caught up with each other's whatabouts. The original plan was for us to check this new Hello Kitty themed cafe called Kawaii Cafe. They offered Freak Shakes and they were currently having a promo for the whole month of September. However, my friends weren't aware that I planned on treating them for a pizza at this new pizza place in the city. So I brought them to Pizzeria del Trio at Madrazo Compound. This pizza place owned by ACD alumni who were 2 years our junior. It was my...

Even during the Habagat (moonsoon) season, Davao's hot weather remains, well, HOT. So, what better way to cool off is through frozen delights! Here are some new frozen delights discoveries I found over the weekend. Hershey Softserved Ice Cream SM Supermarket, SM Lanang Premier This is by far the best softserved ice cream I have ever tried. I love that I can really taste the richness of a real Hershey Chocolate. Yum! Another plus point is the price. For only P15.00, you get to enjoy real Hershey Chocolate goodness on a cone! Buko Pandan Flavored Dirty Ice Cream Mang...

Came from almost 10 hours fasting for our Annual Physical Exam, the mother, sister, and myself were starving after all the necessary medical examinations were done. Since Keepsakes was just across the clinic where we had our APE, it was the best choice for breakfast. It was my mother and sister's first time at Keepsakes Cafe but it was my third time there. As usual the experience was still great and food was affordable and tasted good. Mom ordered Garlic Tuna Belly The sister and myself ordered Fried Chicken. I didn't take a pic of it coz it...

Davao City is not very blessed with nice beaches (no fret because Samal Island is just a boat ride away). There are some black sand beach resorts within the city but nothing beats Samal's white sand beaches. However, it's not always easy to spend a weekend getaway at Samal especially if you have to bring along all your family since there are no Jeepneys (that I know of) in the island. So finding a pretty alternative just within the city is a bit challenging. Thankfully, there are some nice inland resorts with nice pools within the city. One...

I was almost done paying with my groceries when I glanced upon a new food place beside Missy Bonbon. I haven't been to GMall lately so I wasn't sure when it opened. Anyway, I knew about Carmela's famous Ensaymada because of facebook and instagram so I decided it was about time I tried some. A box of six pieces was worth PhP150. It was pretty pricey for six "cupcake-sized" Ensaymada but I still purchased 2 boxes. There were six available flavors on display so I bought 2 of each flavor. (Did I mention we're a pretty big family...

It was US Labor Day Holiday, which meant NO WORK for me! Yay! About two weeks before the said holiday, the hubby and I planned on going to Aliwagwag Falls via the Mati route. We also planned to hit the shores of Dahican on our way back. It was a good enough plan but unfortunately half of it didn't materialize. We were not able to go on a Dahican side trip. All because we didn't went back to Mati on our way home. On the dawn of September 5th, 4:00 AM, our team left Davao and traversed the...
