On most Sunday afternoons (or evenings), my cousins and I go to Gaisano Mall of Davao for the sole purpose of drinking some milk tea. That’s a true story. LOL! We choose Tealoca because they have the most number of options of different kinds of tea. From black tea to green tea, from fruit teas to macchiato teas. They serve…
I have been raving on my social media accounts about this amazing new Japanese restaurant here in Davao City. The place is Sushi Dito (Sushi Here) and they do serve delicious sushi. One of my favorites from Sushi Dito is the Black Dragon. It’s a roll with kanikama (crab meat) and cucumber rolled with sushi rice and nori (seaweed). On…
Last Christmas season, I saw this cute booth in a Davao bazaar. They sold homemade marshmallow treats and I didn’t hesitate to give in to the temptation. I bought some Pia Mallows in various flavors. Pia Mallows sells a variety of homemade sweet treats but their most popular and most diverse line is their homemade chocolate covered marshmallows. The chocolatier…
I am a lover of condiments, sauces, and dips. I was ecstatic to see the Oriental Basket booth at Mercato Centrale. And when I tasted their products, I was happy about it. It’s like bagoong (Filipino shrimp sauce) but sweeter and with a more viscous consistency. The Honey Shrimp Sauce is great with the Filipino Snack favorite, green mangoes. Might…

Every morning (or afternoon) when I wake up, I drink a cup of black coffee. The coffee brand I keep at home is Nescafe Protect. It’s a 100% pure instant coffee powder, a Nescafe Body Partner product.

One of the things that a friend asked me to buy from Manila was Pistachio nuts. Commercial pistachio nuts may be bought from supermarkets here in Davao but we can rarely find unflavored pistachio nuts and other kinds of nuts here in Davao City. Good thing I there was a Nutsylicious booth at Mercato Centrale. Nutsylicious sells various nuts, shelled…

It’s no secret that my favorite restaurant is Lachi’s Sans Rival Atbp. Here’s a healthy reason to love Lachi’s: Breaded Soft Tofu with Teriyaki Sauce. As the dish name suggests, it’s delicate soft tofu crusted with some bread crumbs, fried and served with lip-smacking teriyaki sauce. The sweet and salty teriyaki sauce complements the soft tofu. The dish can be…
I had the opportunity to try out some Coffee Dream goodness when I arrived in General Santos City a few months ago.
