Summer Treats at McDonald's

OMG! Ang init!!!!
You know its summer when you know the fan ain't cutting it. You sweat like a pig and it ain't stopping. Thankfully, McDonald's is just a stone throw away where ever you are in Manila and they offer some simple alternatives to cool off.

Breakfast of Champions : IHOP and Pancake House

Shot from Vanilla Cupcake Bakery
Seeing something like this makes me think about being sweet... NOT!!! NO WAY!!!
Dude Breakfast is sweet!!! It is the most important meal of the day. And yet I can't seem to wake up early for something like that. Good thing there are restaurants that serves all day breakfast.

Brasserie Cicou: Show me the Frenchie!!!


One quiet Sunday afternoon, after watching a movie, my family and I had a dinner date. We opted to try something different. Since my dad doesn't really eat French food (totally foreign to his taste buds), we tricked and lured him into trying this restaurant out.

Sarsa: Damn Good Food

For a couple of weeks now, I usually see myself in the middle of the night driving to this quiet side of BGC to get a fix from McDonald's. (I know.. fastfood and its charms...of being open 24/7 )
 During the wee hours of the night or early morning for breakfast, I get to roam around the place and see a couple of interesting restaurants. One of them is Sarsa.

Tampopo and Munchtown and Skinny Mike's : Keeping Good Memories and Just Letting Things Flow.

 It started with a friendly movie date and went on a roll...but....now...
I am heartbroken.  To say the least, it pains me that I have this situation with another person who I taught was and still is a friend. I mean once is okay. Twice is on the border but thrice.. Gosh and all in the span of a week... I have never been so insulted in my life. Below the belt. Grabe. Forgive my drama-food post but I just had to let it all out because it is eating me inside out.

My Manila Hotel Tour.. Exceeding Expectations


And I am back...... Within a week's time I found myself in The Manila Hotel again. 

I had the privilege of going to a one of a kind tour inside the historical Manila Hotel.

Historical well because it was the only 5 star hotel from history that withstood bloody wars and is still up and running in Manila. With over 500 rooms, this place was opened on July 4, 1912 and served a lot of world leaders and not to mention international celebrities.

Since I was a bit early, I went around and saw some beautiful ladies. I actually thought that they were going to some kind of party.
Wouldn't you know it, they're in fact part of the guest services of the hotel. From what I gathered, its all part of the theatrical way of serving the hotel's patron. And yes, these costumes change daily.

Nadale kami ni Sir Gerry... Hahahaha!!! Fun Times

When I returned, I was surprised to see no  less than one of their head honcho, Denise Tambuatco, Senior Vice President-Marketing, facilitating the briefing. Afterwards, the participants were led to the different places around the hotel. From the famous MacArthur Suite to my favorite Cafe Ilang Ilang (click)
