yAn A.L. — Tue, 13 May 2025 04:09:24 +0000

We have no idea when it really started. But it started with few fishermen bringing in their fresh catch in Sitio Bonbon’s shores. Few became many and many customers started coming in. Word of mouth spread in the neighborhood like wildfire, and with social media, the story reaches a lot of people and places. It […]

Rico’s Lechon Opened Third Branch at Axis Entertainment Avenue, Vibo Place

yAn A.L. — Mon, 12 Dec 2016 09:28:19 +0000

The chestnut-brown to ebony timber furnishing, the inky metal frames and railings, and the transparent glass panels give the façade of the newest branch of Rico’s Lechon a simple yet elegant look. From the inside, the designs are not simple at all. The interiors are carefully matched to the finest details; from the seat upholstery, […]

yAn A.L. — Fri, 26 Aug 2016 16:32:28 +0000

From afar, it was like a huge gazebo, seating northeast of the Mactan Newtown roundabout. Around 24 gigantic pillars in total stand firmly on the octagonal sides to support the massive roofing. No wall covers—not even temporary draping. 500 seats were arrayed around the sturdy wooden tables, spread within the inner perimeter. At the very center are […]

Dong Juan Favorites: Gambas Pasta and Tablea Collections

yAn A.L. — Tue, 02 Aug 2016 10:53:45 +0000

I found it dimmer than usual at first glance. Though the lighting coordination complimented well to the interior design, I couldn’t say that the ambiance is inviting enough for the lower middle class. I heard that Dong Juan offers food for every “Juan”, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Ordinary individuals may find it […]

An American-Infused Japanese Dining at Sumo Sam Cebu

yAn A.L. — Mon, 23 May 2016 10:40:22 +0000

Sumo Sam is not a typical Japanese restaurant. The strokes of kanji printed atop the branding, the “hinomaru” circle on its logo, and the part of the name itself, sumo (a Japanese martial art) are your only clues. The restaurant’s look and ambiance, however, does not feel Japanese at all, despite the presence of some Nihon […]

Kushi Kazu: A Must-Try Japanese “Carinderia” in Cebu

yAn A.L. — Tue, 03 May 2016 11:21:00 +0000

Ramen is a personal favorite. I could finish a large bowl in one sitting. However, I couldn’t have it as often as I wanted to. The price tag is not something that I can afford for everyday munch. So, when a friend recommended to try the ramen offered in a Japanese “carinderia” along Ayala access Road […]

Indulging with the Creole Treat of Murray’s New Orleans Cebu

yAn A.L. — Mon, 02 May 2016 18:33:16 +0000

Oysters, shrimps, and pork sausages are mainstays – that was the only info I have about Creole cooking. I never tried one either, and was never curious. Aside from being rare in the Philippines, only few restaurants specialize such cuisine – most of them are too pricey. Creole traces back to Louisiana, more particularly in Big Easy or New Orleans.

The second to the last stop of the first ever Cebu Food Crawl, a foodie event organized by Cebu Bloggers’ Society (CBS), was Gibbs Hot Wings. I did not have any expectation. But the idea of having a hot and spicy treat after almost a day of great munch is worth anticipating. After our coffee […]

A Barbecue Feast at Larsian BBQ in Fuente

yAn A.L. — Sat, 10 Oct 2015 22:00:41 +0000

I could hardly choose the best deal. Barbecue vendors were rushing to swank about their freebies and discounts. After carefully scrutinizing their offers, we had selected a spot for our chomp. The promise of unlimited free soup and great bill discount influenced our decision to side Eliza’s, a barbecue shop within Larsian. The crew lead […]

Cebu Must-Try: STK ta Bay! Paolito’s Seafood House

yAn A.L. — Thu, 03 Sep 2015 02:14:02 +0000

A college friend, Mico, and his girlfriend, Jessica, visited Cebu for a job-related event. It wasn’t really his trip but Jessica’s and he just tagged along, with explicit permission, I guess. Anyway, being based in Cebu, I was tasked to show them around and have them try a Cebuano feast. That time, I was fairly new […]

Lantaw SRP: An Al Fresco Seaside Dining in Cebu

yAn A.L. — Fri, 28 Aug 2015 04:01:56 +0000

Being reachable only with private cars and taxis, Lantaw SRP isn’t really for everybody. Though perched within a not-so-inviting location, people frequent the place to experience their al fresco dining and taste the sumptuous dishes on their list. The restaurant made quite a buzz to the city’s working class, and our curious palates told us […]

M’s Place: Must-Try Snack Bar in Siquijor

yAn A.L. — Tue, 30 Dec 2014 04:40:33 +0000

I’ve been stranded for two days in Siquijor for two days as of this writing. This is all because of tropical depression Seniang which turned into a storm and now, a typhoon. When I had nothing left to do in my 350-peso room near the port, I walked around the town, then I found this snack […]

It rained the whole day and night and I wasn’t really familiar with the place so I preferred to stay indoors. For the entire weekend, I nestled under the reliable roof and above the comfort of my hotel bed. It was a life that I wasn’t used to. So from time to time, I went […]

We arrived in Butuan late at night after our tour in the islands of Siargao and Bucas Grande. Though tired and sleepy, we still went out after checking-in to our accommodation to look for a place to eat. We did not mind what place it may be as long as we can sate our hunger the […]

A Stuffing Stop-over at Stuff Over Burger Cafe

Tired and hungry – that was everyone’s complain after our Saturday morning boot camp. We were all not used to that type of activity and it drained us a lot. So after the big pumps, twists, and stretches, we decided to went out to fuel up. Beside our building, Cyberscape Alpha, stands the AIC Gold Tower […]

We were at night shift and we were tired of fast food.

A Breakfast Treat at Chef Lau’s Pugon Roasters

yAn A.L. — Thu, 14 Nov 2013 15:50:29 +0000

Though Ayala Triangle is just a short walk away from our office, I rarely take a stroll in the park. A friend invited me one Thursday morning (after our shift) for breakfast at Ayala Triangle. Even though we were unsure if there’s an open restaurant that time of the day (7:30AM), we still headed on […]

Kawayanan Grill Station Coron: Perfect Place to Munch after the Hike

yAn A.L. — Fri, 08 Nov 2013 23:02:58 +0000

I never expected that our first activity in Coron would be a 724-step hike to the summit of Mt. Tapyas. We climbed the steep hill without reconditioning my joints so I did a hard time defying the gravity. We’ll, it wasn’t that resistive all the time since going down was a lot easier. The dark […]

We stayed at Gigantes Hideaway Resort during our tour in Gigantes Islands. For 200 pesos a day, we were nested in a nipa hut accommodation (good for 3) with comfy bedding (but don’t expect too much) and a common CR/bathroom. We are talking about rural accommodation here, so expect mosquitoes to ruin your sleep (you […]

Kanto Freestyle Breakfast: Gourmet meets Affordability

yAn A.L. — Fri, 21 Jun 2013 00:59:17 +0000

Gourmet foods refer to meticulously prepared meals with delicate presentation and aesthetics – and what comes after such sophistication is great price. You can only experience it at fine diners or in in-house restaurants of luxury inns. But, what if I tell you that I know a karinderya (eatery) that prepares their course the gourmet […]

Binondo Food Trip: Six Restaurants in Five Hours

yAn A.L. — Mon, 12 Nov 2012 19:12:29 +0000

I’m easily get dragged lately. My friends’ invites don’t need some sort of persuasion and my nods don’t show any stain of hesitation. It is even surprising that I was able to exchange sleeping (my favorite pastime ever) with exhausting activities. Ironic, isn’t it? Well, as they say, we have to get out from our comfort […]

Spicy and “Shrimpy” Munch at Bubba Gump
