Remember that time when we were all scared to drink milk tea because of an incident that happened near UST? Well, things have definitely gone up for the beverage. Not only has the qualm to drink it vanished but it seems like there’s a feverish need for it now. Just look at the many tea …
My wife and I celebrated our anniversary last week. And this meant that, apart from the obvious, we had a good reason to stuff our faces. Although eating out is the one luxury we frequently allow ourselves to give in to, we go easy on buffets and other unlimited-food offerings because we find them excessive, …
It was our second time at Go Thai Bistro, and we finally thought to take photos. I guess that already sums up our experience at this little restaurant in Lipa City, nestled behind Big Ben Complex. The food is so good, you’d find it hard to remember to document what you’re having. Now, you forget …
Last month, we celebrated my wife’s birthday at Samgyupsalamat in Tagaytay. We’d planned to spend the day at the beach, as is usual for us when there is a family occasion (the planning to go to the beach, that is, and not the actual going to the beach), but her sister suggested we try the …

Here’s the deal: I’ve been trying to turn my sights away from sugar, and I mean any type of sugar. I’ve been doing relatively well with my pseudo-healthy lifestyle choice until one night, after leaving my hometown to get to our new (sort of) hometown, my husband and I — tired and extremely hungry — …
I had my first taste of Indian cuisine when I tagged along with a bunch of Indian guys for breakfast on the day after I arrived in the United Arab Emirates some eight years ago. Because I was so clueless about the place, I asked if I could join them. Although first-timers like me, they …
When our family moved to Lipa two months ago (an almost on-the-fly decision), we did so for a number of reasons. By that time, we had been living in Batangas for a year, in my Jorj’s hometown of Balayan, to be specific, and had grown fond of life in this province. But at the same …
