A few weeks ago, my officemates and I went for dinner in Mabuhay Laguna Restaurant, a Filipino restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Food for the gods: Food tripping in Bali
One of the favorite things that we did in Bali, Indonesia, is food tripping. Yay! In fact, in our last day stop in the Island of the Gods, we spent the entire day walking around and eating healthy bowls and sipping coffee. So I know that a lot of Filipinos like to do budget trip, […]
Snapshots in Kuala Lumpur: Purradise Cat Cafe
I’d been wanting to visit a cat cafe since forever. In the Philippines, there’s a cat cafe called Miao Cafe in Quezon City, but we haven’t had a chance to visit it before I left for Malaysia. Great thing that, here in Kuala Lumpur, there are several animal cafes to visit! I went to one […]

Freakshakes, freakshakes! At Kitchen Central Staff House

Freakshakes originated in Australia, and in the Philippines we simply call them… shakes. Right?
