(Click here to open a new window to find out more about what haute cuisine is) So when making a restaurant where your main showcase is buffalo wings, it has got to feel relaxed, cheerful, and more…
One should never miss out on Real Coffee when in Boracay. While Boracay is known for the beach parties, late evenings and even later mornings, there remains a reason to wake up before noon to grab a hearty breakfast with a good cup of coffee.
As mentioned in the Calicoan Surf Camp post, there are other things to be done around the area if you are not the intrepid surfer.

It’s no secret to those who have read my entries that food is one of the things I love. It’s even better that I have someone who enjoys food just as much and also has a keen interest in all things alcoholic. 😛 To vote, check out Ray’s profile on the myfoodtrip.com site. He’s a definite foodie but what sets him apart is his love for mixing drinks with food…
I have a word I always use: interesting. Because that’s how life is and that’s why I love it. I consider myself very lucky and very blessed to be where I am right now. But I also give myself a pat on the back because I feel the year has been more fruitful because I was more open to so many things. Here, I share with you some of the…
I have always viewed the world as this big, vast place that I will never ever get the chance to see. If you have read some previous entries, you would have seen that I dream of one day going to Paris. But like any dream, it is fueled by passion.

According to the locals, the dolphins come out during the 7-10am window. I boarded…

I’ll share with you some of the places I highly recommend for everyone to go to. (And this is just part 1) 1. Chocolate Hills Of course, no visit to Bohol is complete without…
I recently flew down to Bohol to join my friends, Philip and Mae, on their fabulous wedding day. I just spent my fourth vacation there and ended it with the constant desire to go back really soon. In my five days there, my initial fascination about this island was still ever-present. Contrary to my past two trips which were mostly spent on the beach of Panglao island, I opted to…
