Kopi Tiam’s Binondo Noodles

Craving for some yummy noodles? Well, I’m not a major fan because I’m a rice person. But after I tasted Kopi Tiam’s binondo noodles, I guess I finally became a noodle fan. I’m not exaggerating or anything but it’s not the typical noodles that you get to taste everyday. It has this Asian taste that people will really get addicted to. One bowl of Binondo noodles is enough to fill you up, no need to order side dishes (That is from my point of view) You can choose either rice noodles or egg noodles, it has chicken, pork, siomai, egg, and leafy vegetables. You’ll forget your name after you tasted Kopi Tiam’s Binondo noodles.  But I’m not yet done, I still have space for desserts, so when I looked up in Kopi Tiam’s menu, I found an intriguing name of a dessert “Storm”. So I got it and little did I know that I’m in for a great surprise. After a long wait, I finally got my dessert and WOW! I was in storm of yumminess. It has snowy ice, I’m not sure how they did it, but it was really good, there’s caramel and corn and the sweetness was just right. I’m not sure of the other ingredients they used, but who cares I can just order it everytime I go there. I’m not an exaggerated person, but you should really try dining at Kopi Tiam in Santolan Quezon City, near Camp Crame and I’m sure you’ll have the same reaction. Happy Eating!

Flapjacks at UP Ayala-Land

Check this out. I was looking for a perfect place where I can have a breakfast date with my bestfriend. It was his birthday and I wanted to surprise him. I tried calling a lot of my favorite restaurants, but unfortunately they don’t offer breakfast. I almost gave up, but I came across “Flapjack’s”. It’s inside techno hub in UP Ayala-Land. It was really great because the people working there are really nice and very accommodating. They allowed me to set up balloons and reserved an area for two people. (Take note, it was for free). Then here comes the menu, I chose the ultimate breakfast, it has sausage, pancakes, bacon, and eggs. Honestly one order is good for 2 people. I love the way they made their pancakes, it’s actually better than pancake house. I was really overwhelmed because the price is very affordable. One more thing why I love this place is because of the ambiance. It was very neat and can actually be compared with the breakfast diner in the states. A lot of people who goes to Flapjacks enjoys drinking their favorite cup of coffee while browsing through the internet. Flapjacks is a Wi-Fi zone area so you can chat with your loved one while enjoying your sumptuous breakfast.

The Last Place You Want to Be Now is Manila

Now that the May 2010 Elections have passed (well, sort of) it remains to be seen what is in store for Filipinos and the businesses scattered over the metropolis. Sure we have a new president but he is still untested. Stability as far as security and if the activists will now be at ease with the new administration has not been settled and until the new president (Benigno Aquino III) takes office, it may not be the best place to visit right now.

For one, the vice presidency has been far from settled. Sen. Manuel Roxas and Makati Mayor Jejomar Binay are still slugging it out with the latter leading by about 800,000 votes or so. The new senators have been proclaimed and if you sum it all up, the overall governance of the Philippines still remains questionable.

Add to that political bickering within the ranks which include the naming of Renato Corona as the new Chief Justice which has drawn a howl of protests can only mean that Manila is not at all safe nor secure. Not to discourage touriststs or balikbayans, it would be best to wait until the smoke clears and see if the Philippines had indeed chosen wisely on their new leaders. For the meantime, save your travel itineraries for at least a couple of months more.

 

Meet the New President of the Philippines

Retarded Benigno Aquino Jr.While I do have my preservations, this (unfortunately) is the next president of the Philippines. Seriously, does he seem to be the right person to lead the Philippines? To date, he unofficially leads former President Joseph Estrada in the polls but if the trend continues, Benigno Aquino III stands to be the next president of the Philippines.

Noynoy Aquino III is a 50 year old bachelor, someone whose personality was being hit. He was being tried for being psychologically “unfit” and if the picture you see here from ABS-CBN is any indication, is this the face you can trust? What is he going to do when problems like a “Kudeta” arises? Admit he is autistic? GEEZ!

The problem with the Filipino people is they trust this guy since his parents were former Presidents. Spare me that crap! What has he proven? He has taken advantage of his mother’s death as a springboard to dive into the Philippines presidential race. He has nothing to show. In fact, I remember him saying that he will not add taxes, a declaration he later on rescinded.

True or not, Aquino obviously looks like he is mentally incapacitated. You know what a mongoloid looks like so don’t you even dare deny it. Kris Aquino will obviously be the one behind his back and technically calling the shots. And all the while Kris was said to be leaving for the United States if his brother won. Wanna bet she will not hold true to her word and that she just used it as leverage?

To all the Filipinos, Aquino is not officially the next President of the Philippines. But you have cast your votes and this is what you have chosen. I am not saying that the other candidates were any better but electing a mentally unfit senator with nothing to show? I can just smell further doom for the Republic of the Philippines. God Save Us ALL!

Ravenala Cafe

IMGP4469

Summer is one of my favourite holidays during the year. You get a feeling of relaxation, heat and a whole lot of time dedicating yourself at the beach. It’s quite a surreal feeling when you’re surrounded by the sun, the beach and the warm sand with your loved ones. On one account, this feeling cannot be explained by mere words.

Just this weekend, I visited Moalboal to enhance my summer feeling again. We stayed at a private area which has a cafe bar and restaurant name Ravenala Cafe Bar. It has a very beach themed feeling which helps you appreciate your time dining in their cafe. Aside from that, you also have the beach in front of you to enjoy. The panoramic view of the resort gives you an aphrodisiac feeling towards life. The resort has a shifting sandbar near the resort and  is welcoming and charming.

Beautifully landscaped and well-kept as well, Ravenala offers accommodation in comfortable nipa hut like cottages. So while you’re at Bas Daku, Moalboal, I recomend that you visit this resort and enjoy sunset at west.
