It’s not too often that an all-you-can-eat buffet impresses me, but the new Kome Sushi Buffet in Daly City did the trick. Ridiculously long line aside, this buffet is actually worth it. I went for lunch time on a Saturday and they had a lot to offer: sushi, salad, Chinese food, dim sum, noodle bar, [...]

I never knew Daly City had a House of Silvanas bakery. I’m used to eating Sans Rival cake, usually from Goldilocks, but I’ve never heard of Silvanas, which is basically a Sans Rival cake in cookie form, until I found out about House of Silvanas. Delightfully crunchy, creamy and delicious! A layer of buttercream sandwiched [...]

It’s been cold these days and I would have gotten a soft tofu soup at International Tofu House inside the Kukje Super Market, but after having a horrible hoedeopbap experience at Stone Korean Kitchen earlier this week, I had to have it again to redeem my love for it. Now this is what a real [...]

I had dinner with the family at Gerry’s Grill in Daly City. Jimson was the one who knew of this Filipino restaurant because he’s been to the one in Quezon City in the Philippines a few months ago. Overall, the food was decent. The adobo rice was on the greasy side, and the bami, which [...]

I keep hearing people tell me about an awesome Japanese hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Daly City/Westlake and I finally got to check it out. Tani’s Kitchen really is a hole with seating of up to about 15 people at most, half the seats being counter seats. They even still have an old 15″ CRT television playing [...]

I went to try out the new Asian fusion restaurant in Daly City called Grain Restaurant & Noodle Bar. The food there is amazingly good. It’s hidden deep inside the King Plaza and was pretty empty when I went, especially for a Friday night, but I think it’s only a matter of time before the [...]

Jeric, mom and I wanted to grab dim sum at Tai Wu Mr. Fong’s Restaurant at the King Plaza but it was way too crowded, as expected, so we tried the Filipino restaurant next door, Philippine Delicacies. Their food was not bad – paella had a lot of meats and seafood in it, lumpia shanghai [...]

I woke up at 5:45 am to get ready for my motorcycle lessons at 6:45 am, which lasted until noon, so by the time class was over, I was starving. I wanted something healthier because Chilli’s from the night before gave me a stomach ache, so I had the hoedeopbap (or also known as sashimi [...]

I haven’t been to Banana Island in years. I used to go here all the time after school with Andy, Shannon, Jennifer and Darryl when it first opened. It’s not as good as it used to be, but still decent. This time I went with my family. We ordered the roti canal, of course, because [...]

My most favorite Korean dish is not a meat or tofu dish but a sashimi dish. It’s the hoedeopbap. I don’t think there’s a specific English translation to it, but Kukje Super Market (the restaurant portion) has it named as spicy sashimi salad on their menu. It’s like a spicy chirashi bowl, or a sashimi [...]
