Last October, my friends and I went to Baguio for a 2d1n trip. Let us share to you one of the restaurant that we visited in Baguio, Tsokolateria Baguio.
Sneak peek. LOL. Taken at Baguio Botanical Garden.
Since we came to Baguio around 6 AM, we decided to have breakfast first before our mini city tour. By the way, before we head to our breakfast location, we took a quick visit first at Baguio Cathedral.
Baguio Cathedral…
We took some walk to Tsokolateria from Baguio Cathedral. Yes, we almost do walkathon all throughout our Baguio trip. Thanks to our personal tour guide, Godwin. HEHE.
We arrived at Tsokolateria around 6:45 AM. Unfortunately, the store and the whole place was still closed when we arrived so we had to wait a little bit but it’s okay because the weather was really good and the ambiance outside was okay.
Me and my friends found those statues kinda creepy. LOL
The place opens at exactly 7 AM according to one of the staff. So when our watches ticked at 7 AM, we immediately checked if they’re going to open the restaurant and they did! LOL.
According to them, the real place of Tsokolateria is under renovation so they had to move to another place for awhile.
As the staff gave us their menu, we’re shocked because of the prices… Yes, it is PRICEY. Lol.
But look at their menu! So extra!
Because of the prices, we decided to try their Chocolate Tablea instead since we’re in Baguio. HAHA. PS: We went to Jollibee after this. LOL.
Since we’re curious, we ordered their Tsokolate Ah (190 php) and Tsokolate Eh (190 php).
Tsokolate Ah is nothing but sweet while Tsokolate Eh is a combination of bitter and sweet. Did you know who won my heart? TSOKOLATE EH <3
I don’t know, these past few weeks I’m beginning to like dark chocolates. Is this a sign of adulting?! Hope it’s not. LOL.
Cheers to adulting! LOL
Since we’re still curious on how did they got their names, one of my friend called the staff who’s assisting us and asked him. He told us that it came from Noli Me Tangere which we don’t even remember if our teacher discussed it or not. LOL. Sorry, Ma’am. XD
“Tsokolate Eh means thick and rich while Tsokolate Ah means watered and thin.”
Enjoying my cup of hot chocolate…
Just a tip, if you’re planning to visit here, prepare a bunch of money because I’m telling you, the price is really expensive. Imagine a breakfast meal costs 300+ php?
OVERALL RATING
Since we didn’t experience any of their dishes, I will still recommend it to everyone. Try their Tablea House Blend. Overall, we enjoyed our drinks here. So perfect with the Baguio weather.
We all know that traveling to Baguio is quite difficult because of its long traveling hours especially when you are only commuting. But did you know that you can get to Baguio in just 4 HOURS plus you can experience a luxurious and comfort trip. Yay! Amazing, right?
Last October, my friends and I went to Baguio for 2 days and 1 night. And because we all knew that when the time that we will go back to Manila, we’re so damn tired. That’s why I booked to this deluxe bus from Genesis Bus Transport.
By the way, look where we stayed in Benguet. It’s only 30 minutes from Baguio. 🙂
Presenting Joy Bus: Executive Coach of Genesis Bus
ABOUT JOY BUS: EXECUTIVE COACH
Joy Bus is under Genesis Transport and started operating in August 2010. It is a wifi-equipped, 28-seater executive coach with comfort room initially catering nonstop transport to Baler, Aurora. In April 2012, Joy Bus opened new additional routes: Cubao-Baguio, Avenida-Baguio, NAIA-Baguio, and Pasay-Baguio.
Front view of Joy Bus
At first glance, you’ll notice that it’s just like an ordinary bus because of its look outside. But wait until you enter inside…
Here are some of the features and amenities of Joy Bus Executive Coach:
Spacious leg room – I super loved this because tall girls like me will definitely enjoyed this spacious leg room. Unlike in other ordinary buses, my feet hurts every time especially if you’re traveling for hours. So I highly commend this!
Bottled water holder – It also has a bottled water and a space for your other belongings.
Compartment – In case you have extra baggage, they have compartment wherein you can put your things. Just be careful! Because when Ian put my bag there, it had dusts all over. 🙁
Free snacks – By the way, may I remind you that there are no stopovers in Joy Bus that’s why you can get to Baguio-Manila (vice versa) within 4 hours. So in case these are not enough for you, kindly bring more food with you.
Yay for free snacks!
Free blanket – I’m super happy when they gave us blankets! Blanket is life for me. I don’t know, even if it’s hot, I still use blankets. It makes me comfortable. Hehe.
Look who’s enjoying her blanket! Plus, its color BLUE <3
Reclining chair -This is what you paid for, guys. The comfort and luxurious experience. Did you know that the whole trip, we’re just sleeping like a baby. So peaceful. HAHAHA. That’s comfortable this bus was!
Comfort room – Since there are no stopovers, they provided a common CR inside the bus. I didn’t had a chance to try their CR but one of my friend did. She said the CR was neat and clean. She just a bit worried because it’s hard to open the door. She thought she will be locked there forever. HAHA.

WHERE TO STAY IN BAGUIO?
Check out where we stayed in Benguet!!! Just click here.
Almost every day, there’s a new food stall is that being established in Maginhawa Street. As time goes by, some of their neighbor streets also doing the same thing. One of them is Malingap Street.
I already went to Malingap Street when my friends and I went to Z Compound.
But when I visit last Saturday, there’s a newly-opened food park in Malingap Street. It’s Malingap Central Food Hall that is just few steps away from Z Compound.
ABOUT MALINGAP CENTRAL FOOD HALL
They started operating last October 2017. What makes it different to other food parks? It’s not actually a food park. Or may I say, not your ordinary food hub?!
Look! They have a door. LOL.
This food hall stands out because of its indoor seating. Meaning, you don’t need to worry in case the rain pours. Yey! It has an air-conditioned and al fresco area. It also have ample slots for parking. That is one of the main factors why they stand out.
Aside from this, it has a 600-meter square space. So huge! This food hall is owned by Chef Edward Bugia, the owner of Pino restaurant, which is just in front of them. 🙂
Plus, you can really notice this instagrammable place. Starting from the floor, to its colorful chairs, and to its lighting. Perfect!
Look! You can print your photos inside! WOW!
Inside Malingap Central Food Hall, they also cover events and workshops almost every day. Just visit their FB page for the updates.
One of the stall inside Malingap Central Food Hall is The BRGR Project. Their previous stall was located in Maginhawa Street. They decided to moved here last August, 2018.
ABOUT THE BRGR PROJECT
This has been one of the longest burger joint here in Metro Manila since they started in 2010. They are known for customizing/designing your own burger. Aside from their best-selling burgers, they also offer fries, wings, milkshakes, and beers.
Our customized burgers and milkshakes!!!
HOW DOES THIS WORK?
Upon ordering, they will give you an order sheet so you can choose whatever you want in your burger. Amazing, right?
Sample order sheet
With this idea, you can come up to 500,000 possible combinations! They also offer Keto and veg-friendly options too.
Watch how they prepare the burgers in front of you…
Now, here are our orders! YAY…
Western Bacon Melt (355 php)
Angus beef, bacon, mushrooms, BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, onion rings, lettuce, tomato, and sesame seed bun
VERDICT: Love how the patty was cooked. So tender and beefy. Look how big it was! Kinda difficult to eat it with bare hands. It will be more delicious if they add more sauce in it, I don’t know, I found their sauce not enough for me. Huhu but this one is good!
Customize/Design your burger (price vary)
Chicken, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, onion rings, sriracha ranch, and sesame seed bun
VERDICT:This was my favorite! I really love the sauce. It has a spicy-kick taste that made the burger more delicious. Though you can’t really distinguish the chicken meat in it but overall it was good more than the Bacon Western Melt.
NOTE: The BRGR Project delivers via Honestbee and Foodpanda.

Just had an amazing #looloorendezvoos again last October. Its been a while since my last so I’m happy to see them again. Our host was The Fat Seed Cafe + Roastery that is located inside UP Town Center.
ABOUT THE FAT SEED CAFE + ROASTERY
They just started operating last February, 2018. This is perfect for studying and working people because it’s a fusion of cafe and restaurant. I noticed that some diners have their laptops so I guess this is their new favorite cafe spot as they offer specialty coffee and pastries.
View outside the restaurant
Upon entering the door, this will welcome you aside from the accommodating staff…
Look at their mini bar at the center…
Loved these… Wish I could take them home. LOL.
Now let’s go to the main event…the FOOD!

RATINGS
FOOD –
I swear, all the food we had were amazingly good!!! Will definitely visit this place again and try their other drinks and desserts.
MY TOP PICKS:
Kimchi Fried Rice with a Slab of Maple Bacon – This one is so good!!! Actually, it’s my first time to try this Kimchi Rice and I’m surprised that I loved it. Well, I ate kimchi alone so I think that’s one of the reasons why. The bacon was so tender plus cooked well. I will recommend it to anyone.
Grilled Cheese with Tomato Cream Soup – If you don’t know me, I’m a big fan of cheese so this one caught my attention upon serving this to us. LOL. Unfortunately, didn’t had any chance to dip it in the tomato cream soup. They said it tasted like pizza. HUHU. Envy 🙁 LOL. But it’s okay, the grilled cheese is delish alone.
Hotate Soy Cream Pasta – Oh this one!!! The restaurant’s best seller. Now I knew why! They used Japanese soy cream on this one. So good and flavorful. Yuuuum!
PRICE –
I’m telling you, all the food we had were good!!! The prices are very reasonable!!! Every penny is worth it! One meal/dish is already good for sharing.
SERVICE –
The staff were very accommodating to all customers. Upon entering the door, someone will assist you immediately. Plus point for them here!
For the serving time of the food, it took 10-15 minutes before they serve one dish/meal.

This is a fusion of cafe and restaurant. What really caught my attention were their murals and interiors. So classy and artsy. It also has a mini bar at the center of the restaurant.
LOCATION –
It’s located inside UP Town Center. Very accessible to those near the area. I just found their space a little bit small or crowded? Hope they will expand their place so they can accommodate more diners.

Now, let’s go to the main event!!! The FOOD…
They used charcoal grill which makes the meat tastes better than when using butane.
They have 11 side dishes. Our fave were the kimchi, sweet potato marble, and the jap chae!!!
For the pork and beef, they have plain and pre-flavored meats. The meat has thin cuts but it’s all good! Very easy to cook! Super good!!!
Plus the hotpot!!! Yummy!
One of my fave side dish, JAP CHAE!!! So yummy and flavorful!
Jap chae!!!

First time that I went to a Korean BBQ restaurant with a hotpot! OMG! Spell sulit?! Plus, they have 11 side dishes. Yes, 11! I have nothing to complain about their food. Super good!!!
Some of the pork and beef were pre-flavored! It has thin cuts but I find it okay. The meat was so tender and easy to cook! They use charcoal grill instead of butane. So the meat tastes better than when it is cook using butane.
About the hotpot, I just find the soup quite salty? Or is it just me?! I don’t know. HAHA. But it was good overall.
TIP: Just be creative with the hotpot, you can add some ingredients coming from some of the side dishes. Hehe.
They offer drinks such as soju inside. Soon, they will have desserts too! YUM!
NOTE: No time limit, guys. Enjoy the food!

Did you know that Milktea Ice Cream exists? Yes!!! Just head over in Maginhawa St. to find this.
I was surprised that this place is very huge and wide. I thought it’s just a small cafe because of the pictures I saw on Facebook.
Upon opening the door, this is what you’ll see… Expect it to be a jam-packed place especially on weekends.
It is true that people are patiently waiting at the line to get their orders. Luckily, we had our order done before the line starting to pile up.
Their cup…They also have outdoor seating…
I love the cool vibe inside the cafe. Perfect place to hangout and chill with friends.
Now, let’s go to the desserts! YUUUUM.
We only got desserts because we’re full already because of the Grand Opening of Crazy Cone. We had chicken and waffles for dinner. HEHE.
Wintermelon Milktea Swirl (105 php)
Omg! This is so heaven-sent! Love this! You can really taste the milktea flavor. Just find it weird that the tea flavor tasted more in the pearls, not in the ice cream. Or is it just me? LOL. Nonetheless, it was perfect! The pearls were so soft! I loved how it was cooked and prepared.
Black Mascarpone Supreme (155 php)
I liked this too! It has a sweet and salty taste. YUUUUM. 155 php consists of 1 topping and 2 crunches. You can choose whatever you want from their choices. They have a lot! Sorry that I forgot to take a picture. HEHE.
Aside from these, they also serve rice meals and pasta, cakes and pastries, and drinks such as frappes, coffees, milkteas, fruit teas, lattes, and other specialty drinks.

Its been so long since the last time I went to Maginhawa. Luckily, I got a blog invite last week to cover an event. Last September 22, we went to the grand opening of Crazy Cone!
It is located inside the newly renovated food park in Maginhawa St., StEAT Maginhawa.
Love the new look of Maginhawa StrEAT!
ABOUT CRAZY CONE
It is a fork-free snack and the country’s first ever flavored chicken bites served in a waffle cone. They have lots of crazy combination such as buffalo, mac n’ cheese, sausage, garlic parmesan, cheese, etc!
This is their menu. You can either choose from DIY Cone, Crazy Combos, and Crazy Cones
On their opening day, they invited some bloggers, vloggers, and media partners to cover their opening day at Maginhawa StrEAT.
One of the performers…

Insane Barbeque (170 php)Loopy Katsu (120 php)
Again, congratulations Crazy Cone on your successful opening!!! Thank you for having us!
When you look at their place, there is a Japanese-inspired ambiance of it. This is because the owners of the restaurant is a Japanese. They started operating last November, 2017. In their menu, you will also see that they do not offer Japanese food only but almost everything. This is because the chef is a Filipino. They want their customers to experience everything inside their restaurant.
View outside of the restaurant. They have huge parking space.
For people who want to chill. They have seats outside, too.

When you enter the door, this is what you’ll see… All couches have an outlet and they have FREE WIFI. Plus points for these!

RATINGS
FOOD –
I was surprised when I saw their menu. They have a wide variants of food. From appetizers to desserts… Plus, you can experience Asian and Western Cuisine in their menu! So happy that they want their customers to experience all-in-one food. Plus point for this!
By the way, their best seller here is their shabu-shabu!
MY TOP PICKS:
Disclaimer:We tried the newest dish in their menu which is their UNLIMITED SIRLOIN STEAK AND CHICKEN KARAAGE.
Sirloin Steak – The meat was so tender. They cooked it well. Not well-done but medium rare. I liked it medium rare! But you can always tell the staff what do you like in your steak.
Chicken Karaage – At first, I thought it’s not good because of its plating and presentation. Plus I think twice because it has no any dip or sauce. But Ian told me that it was actually good. So I tried it and was surprised that it was really good! The chicken were so tasty even though it looks like not. Looks can really be deceiving, guys. LOL.
Butterfly Pea Juice – The presentation of this drink caught my attention. I was hesitant to try it because it looks like not good but again, I’m wrong. HAHA. It was good. It is a Thai drink that has a citrus taste. YUM! Must try drink!
PRICE –
Aside from their wide variants of food. I was shocked to their menu price. Super affordable! You guys should really try it to see for yourself!
Imagine, unli steak and chicken cost only 449 php?! Did I mention that they have discounts, too!? Yes, they have!
20% every Monday to Thursday
10% every Friday to Sunday
Note: This is applicable only to their unlimited steak and chicken karaage.
SERVICE –
Their staff were nothing but amazing! They were super accommodating to us during our stay. Imagine that they were asking us from time to time if we want a refill (since it’s unli). HAHA. I also saw how they accommodate other customers so it’s a plus point for them!
The serving time took 5-10 mins.
AMBIANCE –
Outside of the restaurant, you will see that it is a big restaurant. When you enter, you will see its minimalist and clean interior. Not too much designs at the wall so it’s just light. They have good sets of music which makes it more relaxing.
LOCATION –
If you’re from Marikina, this place is very accessible to you since it’s near in Sta. Lucia Mall.
You can take Grab too. But note that the address in Grab is not exactly the address. Just search Veterans Bank instead. They are just in front of it.
Tight budget? Looking for less-hassle food that you can order? Why not try this newly opened store beside UST (University of Sto. Tomas). This branch opened last July, 2018. But look, they already have long lines outside. Why? Because of their Korean Fried Chickens!!!
Long lines outside
ABOUT 24 CHICKEN PH
They start their venture by opening a small stall along Taft last 2017. Now, they opened another branch along P. Noval St. I think they are really targeting good locations like beside a school/university. Today, they are now open for delivery.
This is the only side where you can dine/eat.
Now, let’s go to the main event. The FOOD!!!
Menu
One of the staff told us to choose boneless over with bones and we’re not disappointed. The boneless chickens were less-hassle to eat! But take note that boneless are much pricey than w/ bones.
You can also have it in whole or half. We chose half in each flavor.
NOTE: They charge 40 php delivery charge in Vito Cruz and UST area only.
They observe CLAYGO!!!
RATINGS
FOOD –
They offer wings with bones and boneless. They also offer rice meals which is very nice because it’s located beside a university. Many students are enjoying their lunch here! Not to mention their very affordable price!
They offer 9 Korean Fried Chicken flavors which are:
Original
Garlic
Jack Daniels
Spring Onions
Yangnyeom
Yangnyeom x2
Yangnyeom w/ Garlic
Spicy BBQ
Half Half Chicken
You can have them with bones or boneless. For me, I found the boneless more convenient to eat specially if you’re gonna eat it in school plus it has more wings than in bones. HEHE.
MY TOP PICKS:
Jack Daniels – I really loved this. I think I ate 5 out of the 7 pcs. LOL! It has a sweet and savory taste. At first, I thought it has a beer-taste because of its name but I was wrong. HEHE. You have to try this, guys! Swear!
Yangnyeom w/ Garlic – This is one of their best sellers also and I enjoyed this also! A mix of spicy and garlic-y taste! Yup, so much garlic! YUUUUM.
PRICE –
Well I think I found my new comfort food. The wings are very affordable! Imagine, for as low as 160 php, you can have a 5-pc wings/7-pc boneless wings. How cheap is that?
Price ranges from 80-300 php. Spell SULIT?!
SERVICE –
I am surprised that they have actually long lines. Is it because it’s just beside UST? Or is it because the food is really good and affordable? I think it is both. Expect a long line when you visit them in their P. Noval branch. I think it’s the same way in their Taft branch. The food took us 10-15 minutes before it was served to us.
I saw how they accommodate each and every customer outside so I commend the staff for this!

Don’t expect too much because the store is just basically good for takeout/delivery. Their space is small and only accommodate 4 to 10 people only. I just hope that they will expand their space so I can enjoy eating my chicken wings more hihi.
LOCATION –
You don’t have to worry about their location because they are known for take outs/delivery. But if you’re near in UST, this is really accessible since it’s just beside the university. Their main branch is located in Taft.
