Last minute anniversaire

by Kristine Roa | 414 views

May 8, 2011 – So this must be what Paris Hilton feels like jettying off from one airport to another. My parents wanted to do something different for their wedding anniversary this year and wanted to fly to Manila with the family. After Moony in Cebu and the recent Boracay trip, I found myself leaving the 6000 again and hurrying off to NAIA on Sunday morning.

Makati Manila

We live near Arnaiz -

Visited an aunt’s place who has this adorable puppy!

This is what summed up our Manila trip - Zara. 168. Louis Vuitton. Sonja’s. The Fort. Forever 21. Krispy Kreme. Greenbelt 5. Chili’s. Hello! I love Manila! I love having more shops, restaurants and roads and streets to go to. We lived in Makati for two nights and I loved, loved, loved walking around Arnaiz where everything just connects, connects, and connects! Ah, Conti’s and Flapjacks and Bizu and Italianni’s. Ang mahal ha! Ayala Terraces look like a carenderia in comparison! Ha. Posting photos in future posts. Heloo, two days in Manila BITIN. Read the rest of this entry »

Sumo Sam Cebu already opened this week! Check out Instylecebu for feature soon!

Hardly a Japanese food lover except Shabu-Shabu, the group trooped to Sumo Sam at Rockwell for lunch. Sorry for the late post but this was during our trip last *gulp* May for our parent’s anniversary. Sooo! Tita Beth was a huge fan of Sumo Sam I just found out and I like Rockwell for Shu Uemura so oh well.

Tita Beth is like my mother. She always get caught in photos open-mouthed, close-eyed and everything else candid.

Hail to the Sumo Sam makis and sushis of the world!

That Old Banilad Road has its own Ranch

by Kristine Roa | 349 views

Cebu is famous for those house-just-turned-into-cozy-restaurant-that-has-bloggers-raving-about-it kinds of dining spots. We live near and just managed to decide to eat at The Ranch with our friends.

The Team Formerly Known as The Lady Gagas

by Kristine Roa | 771 views

If there is one thing we all have in common, it is our love for our Wednesday Trivia Night fix at Alejandro’s. The friendship blossomed over crispy patas, huge fights over the white board and constant bickering over the answers. One things fer sure – our team is here to stay!

We hosted again this year. Ah, it was bliss seeing everyone going nuts over Audie’s fixation over the maps of the world. (Damnit, surprisingly some people can still get Mauritius!!) and the prizes we gave away. Congrats to the winners. Till next time!
