Nagsasa Cove
If I were asked for a good place to go for a weekend trip in Luzon, you would likely give Batangas, Tagaytay or Baguio for an answer. But after experiencing one of the hidden jewels of Luzon last weekend, if I’m asked this time, I’d probably give a Nagsasa Cove for an answer.

Marcelo B. Fernan Bridge in Mactan, Cebu

Happy Cream Puffs
A couple of weeks ago, our Japanese teacher gave out custard-filled buns (or whatever that bun is called) on her birthday. That was the time when I first tasted a Happy Cream Puff. I didn’t bother asking Sensei either on where she bought it. After a week or two, some of my officemates brought boxes [...]

We first thought that this part is going to be easy since it’s the off peak season of the year. We received recommendations from our frequent Boracay goer friends to check out Taj [...]

Mooon Cafe in Ayala Terraces
Mooon Cafe in Cebu is one of the few must-try restaurants that I failed to visit during my six month stay last year. I had a couple of attempts but I always failed. Every time we visit Moon Cafe at The Walk (in Asiatown IT Park, Lahug), there’s always a long queue of customers. The place is never empty especially at night.
