</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I spotted a nice little quaint coffee shop nearby which I wanted to try out. It was called <b>JAVA JAZZ CAFE</b> owned by Red and Lisa Raymundo. It is a unique cafe just beside T HOUSE. I found out that the owner, Red Raymundo, is an artist, graphic designer and a photographer too like me! </div><br />

I liked the interiors of the place----- it was simply decorated but what draws the eye is the showcase of paintings ( mostly done in oil ) from local artists while lines its walls ... The roof slants so that the tables on the low end of the rood short squat feet and are set on mats where guests can enjoy their coffee and desserts Japanese style. There are regular cafe tables and chairs at the other end of the room and even out front for those who want to have their coffee al fresco.<br />

according to Red --- Java Jazz is a popular hangout of Cavite artists where they exhibit their artworks ( you can also buy these artworks ). They opened their coffee shop in 2004. The name of the shop comes from the fondness of the couple for Java or brewed coffee while enjoying jazz music. They usually hold art exhibits every month--- and the proceeds of these exhibits are donated to various charitable institutions.<br />

Iggy had his <b>KAPENG-PINOY</b> -- which is their house blend coffee.<br />
<br />
I think Java Jazz has its own charm.... it is not your typical Starbucks or Seattles Best which is packed with people. It is a very nice place to pass the time and enjoy a warm cup of coffee while soaking up the cool Tagaytay air. Truly, Tagaytay and coffee blend perfectly. One of my resolutions this year is to find more coffee shops in the area to add to add to my list. YOU can be sure you will be hearing from me on this.....Iggy Bilbaohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02725574627856289201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709263862407839530.post-29403918435248934712010-04-02T21:52:00.000+08:002010-04-29T21:53:59.509+08:00Eat Well, Net Cube The Fort<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #99bbdd;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbA_K7gUKbaZFOSz5AFHUUnL3m0kf15dKmjuoGoaTK5UugqC1-6ElO-9B9fL42ivmnT-o1RZJlqWg64bF1gI2hKm-Ylv_DdS-oYqo5cJj10E9Bqt7WS-OgfRWN2Isbowp20skeKyUwXp8/s400/IMG_2556.jpg" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(68, 102, 136); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(68, 102, 136); border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 1px; border-right-color: rgb(68, 102, 136); border-right-style: solid; border-right-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(68, 102, 136); border-top-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-left: 4px; padding-right: 4px; padding-top: 4px;" width="400" /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;">As we entered I noticed the place was small. But the waitress told me that they have a second floor which is used for functions. The place looked very clean. Their staff was very efficient and friendly. The head chef, Law Kwok Keung is said to be a Cantonese who used to be one of the Chinese chefs in one of the big hotels in Cebu. He is always present in the restaurant. He has finally opened a new branch in Greenhills.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><br />

The menu looked interesting and I thought the prices at Eat Well were reasonable. It had pictures of the dishes in the menu. It reminded me of the President Tea House in Chinatown -- which had pictures in their menu with matching chinese characters to describe the dishes.<br />
<br />
These are the dishes we ordered:<br />

<b>ROAST CRISPY PORK</b> - ( 220 PHP ). I enjoyed this dish . The skin of the pork was very crunchy and the meat was soft. They gave us hoisin sauce for this dish. This dish is similar to the Filipino Lechon Kawali.<br />
<br />

<b>SLICED BEEF WITH BROCCOLI AND OYSTER SAUCE</b> - ( 250 PHP ). I loved this dish -- the broccoli was very fresh and they had a lot of shitake mushroom in it.<br />
<br />

<b>HAKAW</b> - ( 125 PHP ). I found this dish a bit pricey for 3 pieces.<br />
<br />

<b>SHAO LONG BAO</b> - ( 88 PHP for 4 pcs ) ( 175 PHP for 8 pcs ). It was okay but not as good the shao long bao I have tasted in Taipei last year. I remember how the juice inside the shao long bao burst inside my mouth as I ate one whole piece... HEAVENLY!!! The original and very tasty shao long bao is found in DIN TAI FUNG restaurant... It has a lot of branches in Taipei and in the States..<br />

If you want good authentic Chinese food go and try EAT WELL. With all the food we ordered --- we ended up spending 300 PHP per person... NOT BAD huh!! As a whole , my EAT WELL dining experience was wonderful, and I will definitely go back there!!!! I recommend you go and dine at <b>EAT WELL DELICIOUS</b> <b>KITCHEN</b>. The service is good and fast!!! You have to come early because the place fills up very fast. It is wise that you call for reservation first before going.<br />

Terry's Selection Segundo Piso is very spacious although it is found on the second floor of the Karvin Plaza Building in Pasong Tamo Extension, Makati. Most of you have probably heard of this place through countless features in lifestyle programs, magazines and newspapers.. They do not only serve you good Spanish food but they also have an extensive wine collection.<br />

Their staff is very friendly and accomodating.. Another plus sign for this restaurant !!!! The place is ideal for groups seeking to have a good meal and when you go to these places --- it is better to be in groups so you can sample more dishes.<br />

They have an " open - air " kitchen so that the food is cooked in front of you. What delightful smells emanate from the kitchen of Terry's Selection--- you can actually feel your hips growing as you inhale. hahah.. On one side of the kitchen you will see a huge leg of jamon serrano that they slice -- only when needed. On the other end of the room , you have the sleek wooden wine cellars blending well with the design of the restaurant.<br />

<b>Manchego cheese and Salchichon de Vic Dumplings</b> - according to Luis Chikiamco, Terry's Executive Chef, it is the " quintessential Spanish cheese and Vic salami tucked into crunchy Chinese wanton wrapper". I found this very good, with the salami blending well with the milder-tasting cheese. I watched them prepare this dish. It was deep-fried in olive oil. It looked like it was easy to do... but Chef Luis said the oil should be really hot before cooking these dumplings or your dumplings will absorb all the oil in the hot pot. When prepared properly , deep fried dumplings will absorb less fat and oil. This is because the oil immediately surrounds the food and cooks it from all sides, thus creating an exterior layer that seals in the food's juices inside, while keeping most of the oil outside.<br />

There were 2 kinds of Croquetas:<br />

<b>Croquetas Jamon Serrano y pollo </b>and <b>Croquetas tres quesos</b> ( they used Manchego, La Corrala and Cabrales )..... I loved both croquetas. When you bite into these croquetas you can taste the bechamel sauce together with the ham and the cheeses... I remembered way back when my sister and I studied in Barcelona, each weekend we would go to this little bistro down in the Ramblas to have our croquetas de pollo and torta de patatas together with our filipino classmates for lunch... now... I finally found a place here that serves croquetas the same way.<br />

</div><b>Tawilis Adobados</b> - These are crunchy baby sardines ( found only in the waters of Taal Lake ). It was marinated in their special Spanish mixture and deep fried.. I tried this one--- it tasted like Chorizo!!! I asked Chef Luis how come it tasted like chorizo when it was deep fried fish. He said they used pimenton and other Spanish herbs. Try this Tawilis Adobados!!! Make sure you close your eyes when you try it !! This dish is a winner! I haven't tried this in any other Spanish restaurant. Kudos to Chef Luis Chikiamco!<br />

</div>I would recommend this TERRY'S SELECTION for real authentic Spanish cuisine... Spanish food means " comfort food " to me that I am very familiar with. Something that you can do yourself or even your cook can do at home. No bursting flavors in your palate, no subtle hints of this herb or that spice. It is safe and reliable, it is consistent.... I think it is just what you expect ---- and get !!! TERRY'S SELECTION is simply TERRY-LICIOUS!!!!!!!<br />

<b>HOW TO GET THERE: </b><br />
<b><br />
</b><br />
Terry's Selection is quite hard to find unless you knew its address or unless you got the directions before hand-- you won't be able to see it from the main road , since its building is situated inside a compound. You will have to enter a long driveway --- there you will see a brightly lit deli on the ground floor. That is the Terry's Deli. Their deli is my dream pantry------- it boasts of a great selection of wines, sauces, dressings etc. The restaurant is situated on the second floor which is not friendly to people who are disabled.<br />

All the restaurants there at DAMPA charge " cooking fee ". The cooking fee is based on the weight of your seafood.<br />

When you walk through the market, you will hear vendors hawking crabs that are BABAE ( female ), LALAKE ( male ) or BAKLA ( gay )... I always perfer eating BAKLA crabs because their fat is tastier than that of the female crabs. Do you know what is the difference between these female and BAKLA crabs?? well, Female crabs have more ALIGUE ( fat ), while BAKLA ( gay crabs ) have more meat just like the male crabs... although the fat inside these crabs is not as much as that of female crabs. It all depends on what you prefer to eat... the fat of the crab or the meat ... BAKLA crabs are more expensive than the female or male crabs...<br />

Here are the fresh catch for the day...<br />

Iggy bought a male crab ( 650 php ) and had them cooked....... CHEF'S CRAB SPECIAL.... It was cooked in a special chili sauce ( which was not spicy at all -- I wondered where all the chili went ! ).. It was yummy but messy. Since our crab was very fresh ... the meat was very sweet.<br />

KINILAW na TANIGUE ( 220 PHP )... that includes the fish and cooking fee. Although this dish is not as photogenic as the other dishes we ordered ... I think this dish was very good. Most of the kinilaws I have tasted before would either be too sour or the chili was too strong. You should try this dish when you eat here.<br />

Some things that I have learned tonight .......when you want to dine in places like this ---- you should be with a group ( at least 5 people ) in order to have more dishes to share. You should order plain rice in order to enjoy the different flavors of your dishes.<br />
<br />
Why don't you try IGMAAN SEAFOOD RESTAURANT today and let me know what dish you liked the best!<br />

</div></div>As I said in my previous blogs... I am a MEAT LOVER... to make it more specific... I am a hardcore canivore and I am very particular about my steaks. I know good meat when I eat it... and the best Angus beef I have tasted are from Santi's Delicatessen. I always buy my beef at Santi's Delicatessen. Whether it is for sukiyaki, beefsteak or just plain STEAK... I simply love the beef of Santi's. Santi's Delicatessen is one of the Werdenberg Group of Companies that own several restaurants such as: Carpaccio Ristorante Italiano, Bianca's Swiss Restaurant and I'M ANGUS Steakhouse. Santi's is famous for their outstanding Angus beef. They have a good reputation about having the best ANGUS beef . Their steaks probably might be in the high end but... you GET the best meat... and the best quality for the best price. Today, my son Iggy, Cris and I are going to try I'M ANGUS STEAKHOUSE.<br />

I'M ANGUS Steakhouse is located in Yakal Street, San Antonio Village in Makati. It can only sit a few people. So I would advise you that it is best that you call and make a reservation first before going.<br />
<br />
Upon entering the restaurant I noticed that it was spacious inside and it even had an " open " kitchen with a glass divider. The interiors was very appropriate for a steakhouse restaurant.<br />

I love to have a good piece of meat, I like I'M ANGUS beef ! In fact a majority of people in the Philippines still prefer meat. And those looking for a more exquisite kind of meat would be glad to know that Manila is not short of restaurants serving high-grade steaks. Depending on personal preferences, all too often steaks could be.... OVERCOOKED ( stiff or dry ) or UNDERCOOKED ( bloody and slightly dead ! haha ). I have traveled to the United States, Japan and to Europe, and I can say that I have tried the best beef in the world, so I should know what I am talking about and what I want!! In my travels abroad I always make sure that I would have at least one evening ... for a good steak dinner.. and cooked the way I always want it... which is SLIGHTLY DEAD!... Usually the prices of a good steak dinner abroad would be a lot higher than what we have here in the Philippines. I'M ANGUS STEAKHOUSE is pricey ( average dining cost would be 1000 PHP ), therefore it may not be a restaurant that you can go to on a more frequent basis. But... this place is for special occasions.<br />

which is Roasted US Certified ANGUS PRIME RIB of BEEF ( you have a choice of sauce -- bernaise, chimichurri or au jus ) served with salad ( you can choose your own dressing --- caesar or vinegrette ), Baked Potato.. and a glass of Argentinian cabernet sauvignon... for 980 PHP net... That was what we ordered. I had bernaise sauce for my prime rib and Iggy got the chimichurri sauce for his prime rib. For the<span id="goog_1267621983536"></span><span id="goog_1267621983537"></span>dressing on our salads.. we opted for the caesar dressing.<br />

My prime rib was heavenly... or should I say orgasmic... the meat was so soft.. it just melts in my mouth.. I was wary at first when they told me they only had Medium Rare... but what they served me was perfect! as I slice thru my half dead meat.. the juice just came out... I wished I had more bread to soak up the sauce on my plate!!<br />

While deciding where and what food to eat... Iggy told me that Tom ( my other son ) mentioned that there was a mexican restaurant in Greenbelt .. called BAJA MEXICAN CANTINA located at the third floor of Greenbelt 3 Mall. Tom said it was good.... so... Iggy, Cris, little Una and I decided to have an early dinner at BAJA MEXICAN CANTINA at Greenbelt 3. I like Mexican food and have tried some of the Mexican restaurants here in Manila. There was one particular Mexican restaurant that served good Mexican food before called NINA'S PAPAGAYO.. I remember it was a quaint, dim-lit Mexican Restaurant somewhere in Makati Avenue. I have been trying to find out if that restaurant still exists but so far I was not lucky...Today-- most of the restaurants that served Mexican food are more of TEX - MEX... not the authentic Mexican food that I had eaten before. I wondered if the food here at BAJA MEXICAN CANTINA would be as good as NINA'S... My favorite restaurant that serves TEX - MEX food so far is Chili's..... But trying not to play favorites on the places I go for lunch/ dinner..... I decided to give BAJA a try......<br />

Cheese Quesadilla ( 175 PHP )..<br />
I played safe and ordered Cheese Quesadilla. This was good. But I had to ask the waitress to bring me some guacamole ( their guacamole is yummy ) and sour cream.<br />
<br />

I ordered the WET BURRITO ( 275 PHP )..<br />
It was okay but they had placed too much rice in it. You had a choice of chicken or beef in the filling. I chose beef. It was served with their SALSA.. but their burrito lack the spiciness I was looking for.<br />
<br />

Iggy and Cris shared the Chicken Enchillada ( 280 PHP ).<br />
<br />
Overall, I would give this place a satisfaction rating of 2 out of 5. Though I should say that their staff is very friendly and the service was fast.... we only waited for 15 minutes for all our orders to be served. The pricing on their food is low considering they are in Greenbelt 3.<br />

</div>Bizu started out as a kiosk at Glorietta back in 2001. They have introduced the macaroons, those circular goodies made of pure egg whites and crushed almonds to Filipinos who thought macaroons where those coconut balls and condensed milk confections. These macaroons are tediously handmade. There are 15 flavors more or less which is available at any given time. When I used to frequent the Glorietta before, I would make sure that I dropped by at Bizu to buy a box of macaroons to take home. Those macaroons look so good when they are packed in those little hatboxes.<br />

Their macaroons are 35 PHP each. I would recommend that you try out their PISTACHIO, ROSE, ORANGE, LEMON and BLUEBERRY. In fact those flavors I mentioned are my personal favorites! They are one of the bestsellers of Bizu. They are small but each bite melts in your mouth and you can really taste the different flavors in each type of macaroon.<br />

It is not well known, but you can order French hot chocolate at Bizu. You can have it thick ( like the spanish way ) or thin in a mini or regular cup. You should try it!!! It is a brew of French cocoa powder and milk. It is perfect for drinking, dipping or dunking your macaroons in it.. It is " stick- to-your-lips " good!! I still remember the time way back when I thought that Cibeles ( a spanish coffee shop ) had the best hot chocolate . I had tried a few others that was just as good, but when I tried the hot chocolate here at Bizu... I started coming back for more!! I got hooked on this drink ! They also have the best Lavazza coffee too.<br />
<br />
Here is what we had .... AFTERNOON TEA ( 575 PHP ).. it is good for 3 people.<br />

We wanted to try something out of the ordinary... something exotic.. so Cris ordered Tropical Rooibos as our tea . It is a blend of Rooibos ( a red herbal tea found in South Africa... pronounced " roy bos " ) with orange, strawberry and raspberry sprinkled with coconuts and raspberry bits, orange peels and corn flower petals. Now isn't that just perfect with an eclair one afternoon?<br />

But I will tell you .... its worth every penny! I love their food presentation and you will find unexpected " treasures " in every meal. Glancing thru their menu ... I noticed they also had pasta which was 340 PHP... not bad huh!<br />

Overall, this was one of my most satisfying dining experiences. The restaurant was just so laid-back and welcoming, the food thoughtfully prepared. The prices were just right for the kind of food we got. The entrees were served WARM ( that was very important to me tho ) ... NINYO is the kind of restaurant that I dream of owning one day, so I can hang out there as long and as often as I want. If you are in the QUEZON CITY area... why not go and try out .... NINYO FUSION CUISINE and Wine Lounge........ you will not regret it!!Iggy Bilbaohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02725574627856289201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7709263862407839530.post-4327174237628111192010-02-19T21:40:00.001+08:002010-04-29T21:43:17.223+08:00MAITRE CHOCOLATIER, Jupiter St.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px;"><br />

The store is located along Jupiter Street on the corner of Astra Street, Bel- Air Village, Makati City. My best landmark in finding this place is to look for the STARBUCKS and RJ Bar. Unlike other chocolate shops, Maitre Chocolatier is far from the crowded malls thus it can be the secret place you can share with your family and friends. It is owned by Eva Wong. Maitre Chocolatier is her first retail business. I found out that her family has been in the chocolate business for almost 25 years already. They are the exclusive distributor of Ferrero Rocher ( my favorite chocolate ), Toblerone, Lindt and Rittersport to name a few. As you can see all these chocolates I have mentioned come from Switzerland, Germany and Italy. I concluded that this Wong family knows their chocolates. It is in their blood!<br />

</div>My Family and I love Buon Giorno! The servings are generous without being excessively hefty. Everything is cooked after you order, and their herbs are rich and fresh. The tomatoes are luscious and they don't taste like the can. Buon Giorno has become a very successful pit stop favored by a lot of travelers.... it is the only restaurant in that plaza that always has a waiting line of hungry customers waiting to get a their seat.<br />

Discover and try any of the delectable array of food items which will surely bring back memories of grandmother's cooking. The memorabilia installed on the resto's wall is a blast - from - the - past that would bring back the older generation to the good old days of Sampaguita and LVN pictures while giving the younger generation a glimpse of how life was in the past. It's cozy ambiance is very relaxing for any traveler who has just reached Tagaytay after battling Manila's traffic.<br />

He also charges 500 PHP for each person.... and also provides drinks ( like wine, soda and beer ) and chips too.. That is why he called it the SUNSET BOOZE CRUISE....

with so much work that christmas week, in addition to all the last-minuite-shoppings with my wife.. it was a miracle that i was able to still prepare my share for the "pot-luck" dinner. I had a new salad that i have been imagining of the past few weeks. <br />

We were at the junction of Pasong Tamo St. and Arnaiz Ave waiting for the stoplight and the next thing we knew, the Makati MAPSA officer walked up to my window and asked us very politely to surrender my license. The violation.. CODING! No excuses there.<br />
The next day was a pleasant experience at the MAPSA releasing center along Malugay St. Makati City.<br />
Altho most of the employees of the bureau working that day were also busy watching the Sen. Jinggoy Estrada's 'privilege speech' in the senate hearing.. It barely took more than 10 min. for me to go from window 2 to 4.. and finally get back my license. The fine, PHP 300.00<br />

Very good, down to earth 'traditional' italian cooking! This was the Canneloni Spanci. The method of cooking and ingredients used were so simple, you can easily figure out how to cook it at home. And yes, this is what good italian food is all about- simple, easy, basic ingredients.. full of flavor! No shortcuts or 'fusion' cooking here that's for sure...<br />

Tapella Bistro & Bar was our first mid-afternoon 'tapas' date. I've read that 'tapas' is best experienced with a glass of your favorite 'soft' cocktail or easy white wine. The ambience of this part of Greenbelt 5 this particular late afternoon was cool and wet, so my wife and I chose to stay at the al-fresco portion near the bar just outside the restaurant. A bit pricey but the quality of food was good enough to keep you full and maybe resort to a very light dinner afterwards.<br />
Where was our 7-week old daughter this time?... with my in-laws of course!<br />
