sian cuisine is surprisingly expensive in the Philippines. Ponder that for a second. Go on. Go on. Pho Hoa is pretty expensive and don’t even get me started on Ba Noi’s or any of the Japanese places we have here. In fact, if you eat European cuisine here, it’s much much cheaper than the prices over in France or Italy. ... Read More »
verytime the NBA trade deadline approaches, it’s like the guy’s version of gossip. Who’s going where and for whom and whatnot. I was reading today’s chismis and apparently Dwight Howard has told the Magic management that he’d like to stay in Orlando for the rest of the year… Presumably to bolt to another team next year without gutting his team ...

irst of all, let me just say that Tong Yang in NOT closing shop. Indulge me for a few minutes and the title will make more sense. I’ll just say it out loud now: I love Tong Yang. I love the yakiniku concept and Tong Yang was really one of the first to do this. So there might be the ... Read More »
e here at Food Porn Junkies are procrastinators! And I try to mean that in the most cool/care-free way. I’ve reached a personal low, though. I’ve actually tried out Banana Leaf early in the year. By the time I’m posting this, I’ve already gone back a 2nd time, which is why you guys (if there are actually any readers out ... Read More »
’ve heard about Papa John’s Pizza for quite some time now. Even before they set up shop here. They’re the ones that’s been getting air-time with their concession stand in the Miami Heat arena. They’ve had that cheesy tag line “Better ingredients. Better pizza” line for the longest time now. Get it, cheesy jeje? OK, that was bad. Moving on… ... Read More »
imsum is one of the greatest things in this world. Seriously. It’s Chinese tapas, or maybe tapas should be called the Spanish dimsum. Small bites you can have anytime of the day. And even if they are steamed, they don’t suck. Dimsum is traditionally a light, tea-time meal. But with my cousins coming from all over, we decided for a ... Read More »
yma is not the only restaurant that serves Greek food in the Philippines. Greek cuisine is mediterranean in nature. You will see the same things like kebab, shawarma (or gyro’s in their case), salads, etc. I’ve been here a few times, but I was set to go to Greece and I wanted to compare Cyma’s authenticity to real Greek cuisine. ...

y sister’s been bugging me to try out Chelsea for the longest time. We’ve passed by their Podium branch dozens of times now and we’ve actually planned to eat there for some time now. It just never happened. I had been looking forward to it mainly because of good reviews and constant recommendations from different people. First sign of a ... Read More »
’m going to say it right off the bat: I love New Bombay! Ever since I first tried it a few years back, I’ve always had a soft spot for New Bombay. I have no idea how authentic or how close the food is with real Indian cuisine but I’ve just realized that I’ve been eating Indian food the wrong ... Read More »
K, I know this is a pretty late entry since the Food Sale in Megamall was ended about 3 weeks ago. But yeah, Megamall had a Food Sale for that weekend and it was really the reason why we went there. Unfortunately, it was almost like a big scam. So being the cheap bastard that I am, it took quite ... Read More »
