Cow Bell Steak Café: Quality and Affordable Steaks in Makati
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 15th, 2014
I’m a steak lover and am always on the lookout for delicious steak restaurants in Manila. Now, I have my top 3, but I’m still always on the lookout for good steaks at affordable costs. A few weeks ago, I discovered one that just opened along Jupiter Avenue in Makati. Its simple yet creative logo caught my attention and had me walking in there unplanned. In case you hadn’t noticed, check out the fork on the cow’s head. “wink* Cow Bell...Read More » Tags Share Comments (14 )

by Cheryl Villareal on May 1st, 2013
De Cafe, Cappuccino, Espresso, Frappuccino, black, hot, cold, etc. People love coffee and we enjoy drinking it in a variety of ways. I started drinking coffee at a young age, my mom loved it and she didn’t mind me having some. Back then, the only coffee I knew of was those bought in a sachet. Oh how much more I needed to learn. I was first introduced to the world of brewed and grinded coffee some time in high school, it was DELICIOUS. ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Bono Artisanal Gelato: All Natural Gelato in Makati
by Cheryl Villareal on Mar 1st, 2013
I think I was in high school when people started going gaga over gelato! A variety of gelato shops started opening here and there. Everyone loved it, except me. I still preferred ice cream over gelato, until I tried Bono. There are only 2 gelato shops I loved, one is Café Publico in Greenhills and the other, Bono in SM Makati. I first discovered Bono while I was on my way to Glorietta from the MRT. This corner shop’s light and color...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Red Crab’s New Guilt-Free Menu with Suchero
by Cheryl Villareal on Jan 3rd, 2013
Mmm…. sweet sweet food. Don’t you just love eating sweet sugary food? Honestly, a huge percentage of our food actually contains sugar, many of which we might not even have realized. I’m sure all of you know that sugar IS NOT healthy, so just like any other food, a little bit is okay, but too much can be hazardous. Did you know that cane sugar actually FEEDS cancer cells? and sweeteners are like plastic in the body, because th...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )

Hoho Chickenchop: Taiwan’s Original now in Manila
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 13th, 2012
Ivy, a friend of mine who often goes to Hong Kong kept telling me about this really good fried chicken which she found on the streets of Hong Kong. I tried to find it when I went to Singapore but they didn't have it. So when I visited Hong Kong with her last June, we had to go out of our way and find this street food just because it was THAT good. At first I thought, "it's just chicken, what's the big deal?" Plus, it's just street food, it can't ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

It’s Time You Put a Spin on Your Boring Job
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 2nd, 2012
Working a 9 to 5 job for 5 days a week can be tough, tiring and even boring. I don’t remember the exact number but I remember attending a seminar where they mentioned how more than 90% of the population simply work to put food in their mouths and not because they actually enjoy what they’re doing. And even without going out and asking every individual personally, we all know how true that is. I bet a number of the people reading this are also...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

Get Out More and Discover Life
by Cheryl Villareal on Sep 14th, 2012
Remember those days of hide and seek and tag? Basketball on the street, as long as there’s something to shoot the ball in… Water pistol fights… and random invented games. Do you remember what it was like to be a kid back then? The outdoors were our life! Today however, both kids and adults would rather stay in front of the computer playing Farmville or the like. GET OUT MORE! When was the last time you went out and explored ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )

Flapjacks’ Recipe for Goodness
by Cheryl Villareal on Jul 30th, 2012
A couple of weeks ago, my friend Eli invited Philippe, Ivy and myself to join him for brunch at Flapjacks Robinson’s Place. It’s not often that I eat breakfast out so this is one of the rare moments that I truly cherish. Good people, good food, what more could I ask for? Flapjacks Restaurant Upon entering, the first thing I noticed was the huge FJ sign on the wall! It looked really cool and the color patterns were enticing! I also...Read More » Tags Share Comments (0 )
