When I saw a photo of Pilyo’s Bibingka Cheesecake Souffle on Instagram, I immediately had two thoughts: “Damn, that looks good!” “Bibingka Cheesecake Souffle?! What is that???” Curious, I then clicked on their profile and was surprised to read that though they are promoting Filipino desserts, Pilyo is actually “born in Sydney.” I was even […]

Sunnies Cafe in Bonifacio High Street
Sunnies Cafe is an all-day brunch restaurant founded by supermodel (and my little sister’s ultimate girl crush) Georgina Wilson, together with her other pretty model gal pals Martine Cajucom and Bea Soriano, who also pioneered the famous local eyewear brand, Sunnies Studios.

Birthday Buffet Dinner at Niu By Vikings
For my birthday a few weeks ago, I didn’t really plan a big and grand celebration. I wanted to save money and I just had one simple wish: to eat sushi! Lots of sushi! Well, I got my sushi, all right… but I got so much more than that. I got to feast on all […]

La Favela: An Extraordinary Restaurant in Bali
How do I describe a place like La Favela? I would probably describe it as “indescribable.” I know, that’s just lazy (and unimaginative) but really, it’s hard to describe a bar and restaurant that looks like a tropical garden, an antique junkyard, a vintage museum, a Brazilian casa, and a ritzy taproom with all sorts […]
Italian Chicken
Ciao! One day, I will go to Italy. That is the dream. For now, I will just make Italian Chicken. Before I made this dish, I didn’t know that it was going to be called “Italian Chicken.” All I knew was that I had chicken, butter, spaghetti sauce, and cheese in my fridge and I […]
