The long wait was over: Slice BGC

My high school friends constantly want to try Slice for quite some time but we never had the time to meet each other. Today, the embassy of Great Britain had their “Experience Great Britain” Expo at BGC and I, together with Kei, decided to visit and had a couple of photo shoot. We also ended up having our snacks at Slice since it was long overdue.







I like the place. It was nice and cozy but not so classy. The staffs were a bit slow though. They had a hard time accommodating everyone’s requests and orders.


As for the cakes, I sort of expected a lot from it since I have read quite some good reviews about their products. They even have some reviews painted on their walls but alas, we were disappointed.

The cakes were quite grainy and not that good tasting. It even had a small serving size that I suppose is not worth the price. My friend also doesn’t like its taste. She even told me that there were better cake stores on the other side of Bonifacio High Street. So the long wait was not worth it after all. Too bad - the comfort food that we long to have has not served its purpose. ):

Italian Pasta Place at its Finest: Cibo

Feeling Italian at Cibo

After watching Wicked in Manila, my friend and I decided to have our early dinner at Makati instead. She recommended Cibo since she told me that they serve great food and so we ended dining at Cibo Greenbelt 5.



All I wanted that day was pasta and since Cibo was known for their pastas I agreed to dine in there. I have seen Cibo in quite a lot of malls but I never tried dining there until now; I am indeed very thankful that Mira insisted on having our dinner there.



The servers of the restaurant were very friendly and accommodating. They responded well to our requests. I also like the fact that they served us with a smile.



The pastas were really good - very tasty and flavorful. I love the idea of them offering a choice of making the pasta changed to wheat instead of rigatoni, linguini, etc. At least I got to enjoy my pasta on a healthier note.



We also ordered for a pizza and it was humongous (at least for 2 persons). It was very tummy filling.

We left the place happy and contented. I’ll definitely go back to Cibo whenever I crave for more well done pasta.

Lartian's Alternative: Matia's Bbq Food Haus

Who would not have read about Cebu's famous Lartian where a lot of grilled foods were served. I have visited Lartian lasy year and I wanted to bring my family there as well but a friend of mine suggested a better option- Matia's Bbq Food Haus.







My friend told me that dince we came from J. Centre Mall it will be easier for us to have our dinner at Matia's instead since Lartian is far fron the area plus Matia's also have the same grilled foods like Lartian's minus the concrete ceiling.




I liked Matia's Bbq Food Haus better than Lartian's. The taste amd price of the food were similar but the venue and ambiance was better at Matia's. The service was also better. Although, Matia's is more populated but they have parking space allotted for their visitors unlike Lartian's who have none.









To sum it all up, I enjoyed Martia's Bbq Food Haus better. They have more organized food selling and staff. They serve great food, the place was very spacious and can accomodate a lot of patrons and they have a parking lot.

Gallery and Restaurant in One: Canvas Bistro Bar Gallery

We will end our visayas tour with a short tour at Cebu. I, together with my family, have visited this province a lot of times so I,sort of searched for better (and new) places to visit in the internet and came across this restaurant.

Canvas Restaurant and Gallery is situated at Ayala Mall in Cebu City Proper. It is at the veranda area together with many other restaurants.

What enticed me to try this restaurant is its good reviews as well as the several restaurant pictures that shows several paintings and art books. The books can be read while in the restaurant.






There are not so many customers during the time that we dine in and most of the customers dining were foreigners.




We really enjoyed our lunch in this place. The iced tea was well done and the taste of the food were superb. Definitely a must try!




To sum up our experience, this restaurant served flavorful food and the staffs are really accommodating. The chef even engages in some customers once in a while. I hope they will have a branch in Manila.

Delicious Organic Foods at Bohol Bee Farm and Restaurant

When you want to try something organic this is the perfect place to be. They serve typical food with atypical ingredients like malunggay ice cream, salad made of bouganvillea flowers, etc. Everything organic indeed.




Bohol Bee Farm is located at Panglao Island, Bohol. It also has rooms where visitors can stay for a day or two and it is situated beside the beach side thus their occupants can also enjoy the beach and the scenic view.












We have ordered one of their set platter when we visited this place. The platter was composed of organic garden salad, squash bread with spread, seafood soup, organic red rice, cassava fresh lumpia, garlic jumbo shrimps, grilled fish, grilled squid, crabs with coco milk, honeyed bahalina, homemade ice cream and buko chiller. 











This is so tummy filling. Since the foods that they serve in this place are organic it can easily make your tummy be filled - delicious and worth a try.










Bohol Bee Farm is definitely a place to visit for health conscious and for those who want to try organic food. The food may taste unfamiliar but you'll get accustomed eventually. I definitely will visit here again someday.

Bittersweet Symphony Verse 2: Organized Clutter

This is basically the same template as my version 1. I just edited few codes and add more icons and blog pets as well (see bottom of page). But then my scatterbrain still needs her notepad so I'm sticking with this. (:

Feel free to browse thru my musings/rants/escapades as I tour around my country (and hopefully beyond)... Enjoy! :)
