Winding down the week with Gardenia Classic White Winding down the week with Gardenia Classic White Bread. Bisan walay palaman, lami g’yud labi na ug ituslob sa kape! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ With the family mostly at home during this pandemic, one loaf is definitely not enough, especially when we’re almost always hungry! Two to three loaves is ideal to make sure we have enough for the week. 💕⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #GardeniaFreshnessAndTasteGuaranteed #GardeniaPH⁣⁣ @gardeniaph
During this pandemic, most of us have become more During this pandemic, most of us have become more health-conscious. I’m glad to have discovered MilkLab, a mostly plant-based milk brand, and their products are perfect for those who are allergic to milk, lactose-intolerant, vegan, or those who simply want healthier milk alternatives. MilkLab was made to texture and stretch with coffee but is also good on its own. ⁣ ⁣ I tried their soy milk and macadamia milk and both definitely enhanced my coffee experience. Almond, coconut, dairy and lactose-free dairy variants also available. ⁣ ⁣ Should you be interested to order, check them out on IG: @grandnourriture . They also have a store on Lazada.
You do know how much I’m addicted to milk tea, a You do know how much I’m addicted to milk tea, and while I can always order from any shop, they’re not open 24/7. Good thing I discovered Flavors Lounge + Cafe and their Milk Tea Gift Set, which allows me to give in to my cravings even at ungodly hours. ⁣ Each set includes:⁣ - 3 bottles of ready-to-drink milk tea (choose from Wintermelon, Chocoholics, Salted Caramel and Matcha. P.S. loved the Matcha!)⁣ - Tapioca Pearls (freshly-cooked)⁣ - 3 straws and cups⁣ - Instruction card⁣ - Gift card⁣ - Tea Pack⁣ - P280 per set (315mL bottles)⁣ - P315 per set (500mL bottles)⁣ ⁣ Find them on LEB Delivery, Cebu’s first homegrown food and delivery mobile app, available on Android and iOS.⁣ ⁣ #LEBDelivery⁣ #ConnectingYou⁣ #FlavorsLoungeCafe⁣ @flavorsloungecafe_cebu⁣ @lebdelivery⁣

Got invited to a special preview to this new desti Got invited to a special preview to this new destination to wine and dine before 2020 ended and I’m glad that they’re now officially open! Dine and have coffee (since Cebu City currently has a liquor ban in place) at 𝐄𝐬𝐜𝐚 at 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝.⁣ ⁣ They are now accepting reservations through their IG: @esca.ph. ⁣ ⁣ For something a bit upscale, Esca’s prices are very reasonable and quite pocket-friendly. ⁣ ⁣ Esca features a compact menu of modern 𝘍𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘰 𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 dishes. I cannot stop raving about the 𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐞 𝐂𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞! It’s one of the best “kinilaw” I’ve had.⁣ ⁣ The 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐞𝐟 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚 is so tender and flavorful with an almost melt-in-your-mouth consistency. ⁣ ⁣ The 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐄𝐠𝐠 𝐓𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐚 is a glorious twist to the usual pork chops. ⁣ ⁣ Take note that the establishment is implementing health protocols for the mutual protection of the guests and the staff.⁣
Just realized that the last time I was in Bohol wa Just realized that the last time I was in Bohol was four years ago! ⁣ ⁣ Now is the perfect time to revisit the beautiful island province of Bohol as hotels, resorts, tourism establishments, and tour operators will be offering their products up to as much as 𝟕𝟎% 𝐎𝐅𝐅 during the first 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐤 𝐬𝐚 𝐁𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥: 𝐁𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥 𝐎𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞, happening on 𝐅𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟐𝟏-𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝟏𝟒, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏!

Great value for money. I was particularly happy with their side dish buffet as I took as much kimchi, sushi, chapchae and assorted dips at my liberty.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Upon entry, their very friendly staff gave me a very good impression. The restaurant is spacious and cozy, and despite having several diners during our visit, it did not feel too busy, noisy or stressful. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ They also have private rooms for your intimate and socially-distanced celebrations. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This is the second branch of Woorijib in Cebu (the first one being in Ridges Mabolo), and they’re looking to open more soon!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ See you there? Woorijib Prime is open daily from 𝟷𝟷𝘈𝘔-𝟿𝘗𝘔 at City Time Square Mandaue. Health protocols are observed.

One of the places I’d like to revisit after this One of the places I’d like to revisit after this pandemic is definitely Batanes. In this photo is their iconic “Blow Ur Horn” sign which serves as a warning to drivers when navigating around the terrifyingly sharp but breathtakingly beautiful curves that characterize the island’s roads. #Libotero
We just can’t have enough milk tea in the island We just can’t have enough milk tea in the island as 𝐍𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝐂𝐡𝐚 - 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 𝐓𝐞𝐚 opened recently at 𝘔𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘢𝘯 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘬 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 (formerly Tonyo’s, near Bigfoot).⁣ ⁣ Nham Cha has over 60 branches in Luzon and this marks their first foray in the Visayas. What’s interesting about them is that they only have 𝟷𝟸 𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘴 on their menu, all of them they consider as bestsellers. There’s a drink for everyone. Someone lactose-intolerant can have the 𝐂𝐡𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐰 (refreshing Thai tea).⁣ ⁣ As for myself, I had to try their 𝐂𝐡𝐚 𝐘𝐞𝐧 (Authentic Thai Milk Tea) so I could compare it with the ones I had in the streets of Bangkok. I’m so glad that it met my expectations! I also tried the 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐤𝐨𝐤 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐤 𝐓𝐞𝐚 (this one I could compare with the Brown Sugar milk tea of other shops), and 𝐍𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝐂𝐡𝐚 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝 (which reminded me of Hokkaido Cream Milk Tea from another brand). On my next visit, I will try 𝐍𝐨𝐦 𝐘𝐞𝐧 or the Thai Pink Milk, popularized by BL series. ⁣ ⁣ The store is perfectly set for the new normal. Using a trailer, there is almost no contact between the customers and the staff. The customers order through a glass window, with a microphone so it is amplified inside. ⁣ ⁣ Visit them today and experience what Authentic Thai milk tea tastes like!! ⁣ ⁣ #TasteTheDifference⁣ #NhamChaCebu⁣ #ThaiMilkTea⁣ @nhamchacebu

2020. A lot of things could be said about you. You 2020. A lot of things could be said about you. You are terrible, to say the least. But if we ask ourselves, what went right this year? ⁣ ⁣ 2020 taught me the real meaning of true friendship and genuine human connections. This year enlightened me with a lot of lessons, but the most important is: focus only on what matters, among them are family and a tight core of friends. We don’t need many, we just need a few real ones who we can celebrate good times with and provide support during the bad. A solid support system boosts our confidence and worth, and our well-being especially during this pandemic.⁣ ⁣ While 2020 felt like a roller coaster ride, it definitely isn’t the worst year for me. I am happy that as the year comes to a close, I, my family, and friends are all still healthy and alive.⁣ ⁣ To everyone I met, to those who left, to those I removed, to all of you who became part of my 2020, Thank You! You all had an impact and I will take all the learnings to 2021.⁣ ⁣ The last day of the year is a celebration of collective dreams. Although we have been taken aback by the overall gloom of 2020, much of it was beyond our control and I remain hopeful that 2021 will be a much better year. ⁣ ⁣ Thank you, next! HAPPY NEW YEAR, mga ka-GLORIOUS!⁣

Really got excited about this delivery: Belle’s Really got excited about this delivery: Belle’s Refreshing Juice of Davao City is now in Cebu!⁣ ⁣ Tried out their eight regular flavors and I could attest that the juices indeed are made of pure fruits and veggies and have no preservatives and additives. Some of the juices have sugar, but in very low quantities. ⁣ ⁣ Since it has no preservatives, it has to be covered in ice while being transported and must be kept chilled, opened or unopened. It could last 10-15 days unopened, but must be consistently chilled or else fermentation will be unstoppable. Once opened, consume within 3-5 days.⁣ ⁣ They’re available in 1 Iiter and 3.75 liter gallons. ⁣ ⁣ For more information, visit or @bellesrefreshingjuice / @bellesmandaue on Instagram.⁣ ⁣ #BellesRefreshingJuice⁣ #BRJnaturalfreshhealthy
