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. For the final celebration on my birthday week, I had dinner at Sunnies Cafe […]
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 […]

Pad Thai
It’s been two years since my last recipe blog post! Two years! While chopping up ingredients in the kitchen one day, I told Mike, “You know, maybe I should blog about my recipes. Whenever I post pictures of food that I make, people keep asking me how I made them.” Being the ever so supportive […]
Warung Rumpi’s, Seminyak
First things first: what is a warung? Wikipedia defines “warung” (or waroeng) as a type of small family-owned business — often a casual shop, a modest restaurant, or a small café found in Indonesia.” However, today, a warung can refer to “a modest Indonesian restaurant or a place that sells things Indonesian.” Warung Rumpi’s is a homey and […]
