Dinner at Liwan Restaurant


For my first food trip in Dubai for 2016, we had it at Liwan Restaurant. Mark took me out on a dinner date to Liwan Restaurant one Friday night, special thanks to the dinner voucher that Al Ghurair Rotana gave him. :p


We've both been to the restaurant and have already experienced their buffet during Iftar, which we both liked by the way, so I was more than excited when Mark brought me back for another dinner buffet.

The Art of Brunch at Movenpick Hotel Bur Dubai



Friday brunches are a common thing here in Dubai for families, both locals and expats alike. I've been in Dubai for a little over year, and I have already observed how they take Friday (or weekend) brunches so passionately. And while almost all hotels here offer brunches, each still has their own way of making their brunch stand out.

La Serre's Goûter Menu


Mark and I got to commemorate the celebration of National Children's Day through an afternoon snack the French way! Walking along the classy streets of Downtown Dubai, we were left utterly mesmerized just at the sight of La Serre Bisto & Boulangerie’s charming ambience. Coupled with the Goûter Menu, especially crafted to satisfy the little ones' palates, La Serre definitely dazzled the kids in us.


La Serre's al fresco dining area had a section dedicated for the little ones and their parents. Laughter of little kids enjoying the fun activities and story-telling filled the air that afternoon.

Filipino Food at its Finest :D


I'm back! Both back in Dubai and back to blogging after my month-long vacation to my beloved country, the Philippines.

Going back home after a little more than a year surely made me miss a lot about home. But if there's one thing that I definitely missed, it's the food! I was raised in a household where eating breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner together is a must (especially on weekends), regardless of our different personal schedules within the day, so I'm still struggling up to now being all by myself in Dubai as I'm not really used to eating alone.


So when I got back home, Daddy made sure to fill in all the longings that I had for the past year with no less than his specialties! Let me share them with you one by one. You must be warned though that this will be photo-heavy and will make you drool a lot! Oh I have an idea, let's play a game. I dare you to make it up to the end of this post without drooling! Game? Game! :D

#2015bestnine

#2015bestnine was all over Instagram since the start of this week. And yup, I also got into the craze. :p Mine was mostly about food and I am not surprised. But aside from all the yummy food, there's a lot more to my 2015, so I created my own #2015bestnine. :D

My 2015 was filled with new friends, new learning, and new experiences in a foreign land, and I'm more than happy that I'll be ending my year and starting a new one in my home, with my family.


There were some bumps along the way but everything was definitely worth the ride. Special thanks to Mark and my family for making it all worthwhile. Cheers to the new year!

Being in Dubai for the past year has also opened a lot of opportunities for me and for this blog. And it is very evident in the original #2015bestnine generated for my Instagram account. I couldn't be more thankful for the year that was!

Wishing everyone a blessed, love-filled, and prosperous year ahead! Happy New Year!!!
