Introducing Flame Restaurant at Discovery Primea

Only a few people can resist the goodness of a deep fried suckling pig by Charlie’s Pritchon. This celebration staple since the early 2000’s has bee replicated by so many, but the original remains the best. And it’s because they have more than just deep fried lechon. In a previous post, there was the pesto crusted baked Norwegian salmon for the seafood lovers.   And then there’s more for them,…

The historic Charles running through the city, a cool fresh breeze always present, and some of the most ethnically diverse and friendliest people you’ll meet in America. Welcome to Boston! For a highly urbanized city, they sure love to connect with nature and their healthy lifestyle. More people walk here than use cars, and a great part of the population are into some sort of health and wellness regimen. I mean,…

Ray: Ah yes. Hong Kong International. It’s always a pleasure to arrive, or even just to connect here. And not just because of my bias during one time I got stuck here for half a day. It really is a pleasant place. The space, lighting, vibe, and mix of people all over the world connecting to what is arguably Asia’s city of the world. It’s back to Boston for a…

Ray: There is merit when people say that Lisbon might be the upcoming food central in the region. The diversity is amazing! As mentioned in the previous post, since Portugal is listed as one of the safest countries to go to the world, you cannot blame people for moving here and bringing with them their cuisine to add flare to the local flavors. But of course, you just have to…

Ray: Lisbon is beautiful! What you see above is a picture from the Metro station in Olaias. Never knew a metro station can be made to look like it’s a whole art installation. It’s spacious, clean, and you feel generally safe. In fact, I believe Portugal is listed as one of the safest countries in the world. There’s an apparent heat wave that has passed through the region, and the…

Ray: Been a while since we made some Postcards. So much are actually pending from last year. Given busy schedules and further studies, it’s been a rare time since we have made active contributions. But with an unusually light Saturday Manila traffic, Online Check-in (Highly recommended. Can save you at least 45 minutes lining up at  the airport gates), and an apparently light evening for the airport, there’s time to…

It’s all about the bed. Yes, there’s a pool, the food is great, the service is wonderful. But at Meranti Hotel, you will never forget the bed. In fact, you won’t ever want to get out of it.

Attending a Project Wheelchair charity dinner is not much about the culinary prowess and degustacion that you will encounter, as it is a story of how one family cares to spread the love that they have felt from a daughter and sister who has passed on and continues to look after them until this day. Dedet dela Fuente is known in Manila as the “Lechon Diva”, with her trademark stuffed…

First job. A promotion. Saved up for those new sneaks. Finally took over that Pokemon Gym. Even the most mundane of accomplishments can be enough reason to celebrate. It’s all about the attitude of accomplishment and the elation it gives. Applebee’s understands that, and that’s why they make sure you relish these fleeting moments with food and drinks. But most of all, with the memorable company that tags along with…

Ray: So we just mentioned in a previous Postcard that Honolulu is one expensive city. But for locals, there is one no-fail place where you can get reasonably priced food at big portions: L&L.   To Filipinos, think of this as their version of Jollibee. Pretty much found in a lot of corners around Hawaii, this brand is actually co-owned by a Filipino migrant and has expanded to the Mainland…

It was a night to remember. Set on the lovely Blackbird at Nielson Tower, (that have played host to some of the best social gatherings of Manila’s finest and most accomplished), with fine cocktails and pulsating beats to set the tone for the night, Grey Goose launches Grey Goose Gastonomique: a partnership between the chef of the house, premium spirits, and exceptional entertainment fitting of those as discerning as the consumers…

The fiery home of pots and pans is a hotbed for the inspired. This is how an evening by Gas3nomic Culinary Events went.

Head out into the wild, wild west as Spectrum offers yet another of their winning brunches.   Say “Howdy” to their grilling station where you can come up with your own barbecue platter filled with steak, ribs, and lamb.  You can also get fresh seafood cooked to your liking.  A sure-hit among the kids are the corn on the cob, fries, and sweet potato crisps.  Our little boy loved that…
