Last year around December, I began having chronic chapping of my upper lip. I thought maybe it was simply because of the cold season. It’s still cooler than usual in the Philippines in January and February, and I still had chapping, peeling and stinging feeling on my upper lip. I just tried to ignore it, […]
Lifestyle
Lazada owes me money. Their customer service people disregard my requests for assistance.
Think twice before buying anything from Lazada. They can send you the wrong item, have you return the wrong item with a promise of refund, give you no refund, and never get back to you again even when you already paid! Long story short: I purchased an item last year (already paid) and Lazada sent […]

Shinjuku Ramen House review – Little Tokyo, Makati
A friend and I wanted Japanese food a few days ago, and because she wanted ramen while I wanted sashimi, our feet took us to Shinjuku Ramen House, which had both items available on their menu. It’s along Chino Roces Avenue, and if I remember correctly, is located at the intersection with Fernando Street. There […]
S&R Subic Menu + Review: non-members enjoy their New York style pizza and more!
S&R Pizzas for non-members are awesome! I especially enjoyed the foods at S&R Subic during a trip. I first tried foods at the S&R branch Bradco Avenue, Baclaran before a flight with a companion who was an S&R member. I was told that only S&R members can dine in to try their Food Services, except […]
Catzie’s Creamy Carbonara Recipe
When it comes to pasta dishes, I like it when the sauce is thick and really clings to the pasta. And when eating white sauce pasta, I want it really creamy. I’ll share with you a creamy carbonara recipe, with sauce that’s thick and creamy, and doesn’t use flour or cornstarch to thicken. The recipe […]
Meat Plus Cafe menu and review (Subic, Olongapo)
“I can’t leave Subic without eating at Meat plus” There’s a huge banner at Meat Plus Cafe in Subic that says “I can’t leave Subic without eating at Meat Plus”, and I think that when I go back to Subic, I would be saying exactly the same thing. 😉 Meat Plus Cafe sure is a […]
Duncan Hines red velvet cake mix review and my red velvet cake adventure
Say Aaaah!~ Taste this soft, moist red velvet cake. It’s made from the Duncan Hines red velvet cake mix. I liked this product, but I won’t use it regularly because I like making cakes from scratch. The cake was also a bit too fluffy compared to all red velvet cakes I tried before. Still, my […]
Subic Park Hotel review, taxi rates, and places to visit in Subic
In August, a companion and I wanted to get away from the city during a long weekend. We didn’t want to go somewhere too far from Manila, and were looking for just a little adventure in the trip. Because of that, we decided to go to Subic Bay Freeport Zone. 🙂 I’m going to include […]
