love the sushi mini bar in this resto

a must in a jap resto - tea

 

 

 

 

that green thing is not wasbi, it's an ice cream. this is a japanese dessert, ice cream with red beans and like "palitaw" in the Philippines

a dose of starbucks... from supermarket??!!

i discovered this years back. it's a great Sunday morning breakfast, paired with bread and spread.

sioPAO

here in the philippines, this is called siopao. effing rhymes with my name. can either be steamed or popular in my province as toasted. for me chowking's steamed version is one of the bests. pork bun.

a REPEAT [sorry]

i said to myself that there would be no duplicate posts on this blog but this cold treat i guess is just an exception. this thing is fast becoming a fad. or more like it.

just milk and chocolate syrup for me.

mix well

til it's almost perfect to take the first scoop

bam!!

indeed..

SPAM

this has reduced sodium.. that makes me feel less guilty. best processed meat out there.

layers of SINFULNESS

i apologize for the crappy photos. but these deadly sweets from sugarhouse - marjolaine and triple x, are mind blowing. with a hot coffee, this will wipe your cold night away.

in light SYRUP

i make sure to have a stock of this combo. first i don't have to slice them, it's open, and serve.

when i was a kid, my mom would bring home spaghetti, chix and bbq from this resto then in college, i'd frequent this cos of its "home-made" type of menus. here are some. the name of the restaurant is Geewan (short for Graceland 1, there were 3 branches in Naga City before, that's why). so if you wanna have good bikolano dishes at value-for-money deal, visit this place.

Sinigang na Malasugui (Black Marlin in Sour Soup)

Kinunut (Shark/Ray in Coconut Cream and Moringa leaves)

Malasugui with Taosi sauce (Black Marlin in Black Bean sauce)

Bikol Express (not the best but not bad)

in Bikol we call this Kandingga (Bopis in Tagalog)

Fresh Lumpia (Fresh Spring Roll)
