Agave y Aguacate – Permanently closed

August 11, 2014

After a long day working, Abe and I actually found energy to extend the night with dinner at Agave y Aguacate. The first time we came here, it was a Monday night and we left feeling silly that we didn’t check their schedule. That night we came back, dinner at Agave y Aguacate was in […]

Yakitori Kintori – Temporarily closed

August 10, 2014

For a while now I have wanted to try Yakitori Kintori. I wanted to dine in this place with a friend in mind. I wanted to bring my friend Jojo when I dined here and I finally had that chance a week ago. I just know that their grilled skewers was something I could share […]

Shibui Robata Bar #RobataTO – Permanently closed

June 15, 2014

Whenever an event has Japanese cuisine, it doesn’t take me too long to decide whether to attend or not. I have confessed so many times of my love for Japanese cuisine that I would consider trading my heritage of Filipino cuisine for it. It’s the aesthetics combined with its freshness never fails to amaze me. I […]

By The Way Cafe

June 14, 2014

Coming home from a dinner party late last night, I had a fleeting thought that I would not wake up early Saturday morning. I had to get out of my usual lazy Saturday slumber to take down my Catalonia’s Castellers exhibit at The Rivoli, which had its run at the Rivoli for the past month […]
