Three patties, one pound, five minutes. Usually, Burger Avenue lets the burger cool down first for a few minutes before they start the clock but this time, they rushed me because they were closing in half an hour. My whole mouth was burned and was in pain for days.

I actually used to eat balut all the time as a kid, even after I moved to the states, but after time, it started to look more and more disgusting so I stopped. This was my first time eating in about 20 years. That first soup of the soup inside brought back nostalgic memories.

I didn’t think I would find a non-Filipino dessert that I’d really like in the Philippines. I tried the green tea anmitsu at Kozui Green Tea in Quezon City and it had just about every Asian ingredients I like in my Asian desserts. Green tea jelly, adzuki beans, taro paste, mochi, and soft serve green [...]

During my whole time in Asia, I was craving just one good, meaty, juicy burger. I was looking for a burger that would  make me not want to eat another burger for at least another month. I had pretty good ones at Monkey Hurry in Taiwan, but the one pound burger I had at Burger [...]

First time ever hitting the clubs in Makati. We went to Encore, which was formerly Embassy. Really good music, and better than the clubs here in SF sometimes. It has a hotel vibe inside with its layout. We had to cut out early though because Tiff got too drunk hehe. (Photos courtesy of Dona)

We grabbed some crepes at Cafe Breton. You just can’t go wrong with nutella crepes; however, they had something that I’m not used to seeing in American menus: mango crepes. The crepe is filled with sliced mangos and heated so it’s nice and hot, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and covered with [...]

Filipino Food at Antonio’s Grill in Tagaytay

January 23rd, 2010 by Jonas / Filed under Filipino, Food, Philippines, Travels / Leave A Comment

We had a big lunch at Antonio’s Grill in Tagaytay. Not a bad choice to eat, though I’ve had better. Their sizzling bulalo (beef and bone marrow) was good. I also liked their spicy ginisang hipon (shrimps). My favorite, though, was their turron with tikoy. The tikoy offered a nice chewy texture that you usually [...]

The meat was juicy and the skin was crispy. Their litson kawali (roasted pork) was also good, especially its crispy [...]
