WYP: Instagrammable restobar in Makati

WYP Dining

Missing the usual night life in Makati? Why not visit this restobar in Poblacion, Makati? Yes, they are now open but remember that they are still practicing safety protocols such as: scan QR codes for health declaration form and temperature check. Also, don’t forget to wear your face mask and face shield.

WYP dining

WYP stands for “What’s Your Poison?“. This restobar is connected to UNWND Lux Hostel. We went here for our snacks after checking-in at UNWND. We got the whole place to ourselves but we think it’s much better at night.

Watch our vlog here:

We immediately loved the vibes and interiors of the place. Neon lights, upbeat music, good food and drinks. What else are you looking for?

Torta Cubana

This one is huge, by the way! We didn’t finish eating this but this one is delicious and heavy. LOL. It has eggs, cheese, beef, sausages, and ham. It also has chips on the side.

Pokpok Wings

This is also known as Vietnamese chicken wings. We liked it because it is spicy. Don’t worry because its spiciness is tolerable. This is really good! Recommended indeed.

For the drinks, we got Mango Shake and Lemon Juice. Very refreshing and has good presentation.

Just a tip, the cocktails drinks we got isn’t available yet in their menu but we are excited to all of you to try these! Super good!

    Cruel Summer

    Mother Cure

Mother Cure has a citrus taste because it has lime on it. While the Cruel Summer is perfect for ladies because it has strawberry taste. Both taste good and it’s not that strong.

In case you are wondering if they have HAPPY HOUR PROMO, yes they have. Kindly see attached photo below for your reference.

Wine and dine at La Petite Parisienne Manila

la petite parisienne manila

We decided to celebrate our anniversary in Makati. Since we can’t do out-of-town trips yet, a quick staycation will do for now.

We had a quick late lunch at this restobar in San Agustin, Makati, which is La Petite Parisienne Manila. It is a restaurant in the morning and a wine bar at night. In short, it is a restobar in Makati. The only difference from the other restobar is that they have a great interior inside. How about over hundreds of wine bottles for your backdrop. WINE NOT?

  • la petite parisienne manila
  • la petite parisienne manila
  • la petite parisienne manila

The interiors and details are so extra! Can’t stop taking pictures. LOL!

All of the products from La Petite Parisienne Manila are imported from France. They offer over 100 French wines and different kinds of cheese.

  • la petite parisienne manila
  • la petite parisienne manila

We’re so lucky that we had the whole place to ourselves. It felt like we reserve the whole restaurant for our anniversary. LOL! According to one of the staff, we picked the right time and day because there’s a time that the whole place is jampacked.

la petite parisienne manila

PRO TIP: Visit La Petite Parisienne Manila during off-peak season such as weekdays or Sunday afternoon. We went there on a Sunday, around 2PM.

Here’s what we ordered at La Petite Parisienne Manila.

  • la petite parisienne manila
  • la petite parisienne manila
Quattro Formaggi

We super liked this pizza. You can really tell that it’s fresh and hand-tossed. The dough is perfect!

Beef Burgundy

This is one of the recommended menu at La Petite Parisienne Manila. The beef was so tender and it was good overall.

la petite parisienne manila
Red Sangria

We also got Red Sangria that is in a carafe. This is good for 4 persons already but we managed to consume it moderately. LOL.

Fusion Foodhall: Our newest hangout place in QC

fusion foodhall

We went on another chill weekend with friends. But not only that, we also celebrated a special occasion since our two friends got engaged already!

  • fusion foodhall
  • fusion foodhall
Congratulations on your engagement, Jen and Jaymark!

Glad that we found Fusion Foodhall that is located in Quezon City. Note that this is a newly opened bistro. They just opened weeks ago and it is near Welcome Rotonda. If you want to pay a visit, the landmark would be the Mega One Building beside Sun Residences.

Upon entrance, a security guard will ask you where will you going. After that, you have to do a temperature check and they will instruct you the directions going to Fusion Foodhall.

fusion foodhall

This place is perfect if you are celebrating something special. The place is cozy and it has that Japan-vibe because of its artificial cherry blossom tree inside.

  • fusion foodhall
  • fusion foodhall

It is called such because it looks like a food court with a class. What we also noticed was that the place is very spacious. So you guys are safe if you are strictly observing social distancing.

  • fusion foodhall
  • fusion foodhall

Aside from that, they also have a mini bar area which also happens to be the entertainment area.

  • fusion foodhall

Why called entertainment area? Because here at Fusion Foodhall, you can dance, sing, and play while waiting for your food. And good news, this is all for FREE!!!

Look, here’s a short clip of us dancing. Excuse our loud voices and the dance moves. LOL.

After dancing, the food is served already. And if you are wondering why it is called Fusion Foodhall, it is because they are serving American, Filipino, and Japanese food.

The food were all great but the top picks for us were the Gyudon, Kare-Kare, and Tantanmen Ramen. Don’t worry because the price is very affordable. Cozy but not costly!

Doc Wings Sampaloc is now open!

doc wings sampaloc

Finally, the sixth branch of Doc Wings is now open! Doc Wings opened on December 12 at their new branch in Sampaloc, Manila.

doc wings sampaloc

In case you guys didn’t know, we already featured their branch in Caloocan City which is their 2nd branch. Their main branch is located in Tondo, Manila. The other branches are located in Malabon, Valenzuela, and Quezon City.

Aside from their unlimited wings and rice for only 219 PHP, what we also loved and caught our attention was the interior of the place.

doc wings sampaloc

Each branches has different designs of one of the popular anime which is One Piece. Just look at some of our photos at their newly opened Sampaloc branch.

Given that the food they serve are great, what we really liked about Doc Wings is that all branches are unique. In this branch, the walls are covered in murals and as you can see, if you are a fan of One Piece, you can easily recognize Go D. Ussop arc upon entrance.

The wings are really consistent in terms of the flavors, still our top favorite is the Garlic Parmesan, followed by the Spicy Mayo and Spicy Buffalo.

Lelita Hotel: Safecation is the new normal

lelita hotel

Finally, received the good news! Staycation is now allowed in Metro Manila. Immediately, we searched for a hotel in Zen Rooms and found this new hotel in Makati, which is Lelita Hotel.

lelita hotel
Photo from Zen Rooms

Lelita Hotel was established last June 2019 and is located in Bangkal, Makati. The hotel has 7 floors and a roof deck. But due to the pandemic, their roof deck is currently unavailable until further notice.

lelita hotel

What we liked about this hotel was they are following safety protocols such as: foot bath and alcohol/hand sanitizers upon entrance, temperature check before checking-in, and you must fill out health declaration form.

  • lelita hotel
    Foot bath and sanitize first before entering the hotel
  • lelita hotel
    Filling out the health declaration form

We also noticed that the employees in the hotel are wearing PPEs for the safety of their guests.

We also had a hassle-free check-in. They only need 1 valid ID and they also have a security deposit worth 1,000 PHP which is refundable upon checking-out.

lelita hotel
Hallway

For the room, what we noticed was the room is very spacious and clean. They also provide toiletries such as bath towels, tissues, soaps, shampoo with conditioner, and a dental kit.

You can see that the room is organized and the CR is properly sanitized. Also, they have a WIFI inside the hotel and it has a strong connection.

They also gave us complimentary bottled waters after checking-in. They also have a hair dryer, electric kettle, glasses, and a pitcher.

As of now, they don’t offer complimentary breakfast in the hotel but they have a store located at the lobby or you can also get your food delivered from your favorite food delivery apps but the food delivery riders are not allowed to enter the hotel for safety protocols.

Available food at the lobby

You may pickup your orders outside instead just like we did. There are also convenient stores nearby the hotel if you opted not to order food.

  • lelita hotel

Overall, the hotel is not much on the aesthetic side yet it compensates with safety and cleanliness. We had a great stay at Lelita Hotel!

Celebrate special occasions at Clyde Suites Tagaytay

clyde suites tagaytay

Finally, our first out-of-town trip after 10 months! We really made it possible since we’re celebrating another milestone.

HAPPY 4TH ANNIVERSARY,

THE HUNGRY TRAVELER PH!!!

Meet Karla and Ian, founder of The Hungry Traveler PH

We celebrated The Hungry Traveler PH‘s anniversary in advance so we can post the photos on the day of our anniversary, which is today. LOL!

And since we’re badly missing Tagaytay, which is also our favorite go-to destination, we decided to celebrate here. And we found a perfect place to celebrate our anniversary.

So thankful that we saw a post regarding Clyde Suites Tagaytay months before and immediately booked a stay with them. They are located in Tagaytay Prime Residences.

Actually, they have 4 units available. You can check the photo below for reference.

We supposed to stay in Taal View room but unfortunately, the only available room on our preferred date was the Bali-inspired room, which was also okay for me.

For the requirements, you only need 1 valid ID upon checking in! And yes, we went to Tagaytay using public transportation. It’s actually our 1st time commuting after 9 months.

We’re scared but we just prayed and took some extra precautions to make ourselves safe during the trip.

We arrived around 6 PM already because of the heavy traffic along Aguinaldo Highway. But don’t worry because here at Clyde Suites, you can do self check-in just like we did. They will instruct you on how to do the self check-in.

Ian was surprised when he saw the surprise/welcome setup. It’s actually my idea to do a surprise setup and we’re both happy with it. It’s so beautiful.

Yes, here at Clyde Suites Tagaytay, they do surprise setups which is very convenient if you have a celebration or any occasions you want to celebrate. From birthdays to anniversaries, they have a package! Just inform them 2-3 days before your check-in date for them to prepare.

Aside from the setup, we’re so inlove with the room itself. I can’t remember how many times I told Ian that I want a room exactly like this. From the design to the things inside, I want it all! HAHA.

Super inlove with their kitchenwares! Look at that aesthetic mugs! Perfect for your morning coffee.

For the freebies, they have 2 complimentary bottled waters and 2 instant coffees. They also have free slippers inside the room. On the bathroom, they provided tissue, body wash, and shampoo.

This was the morning view around 6 AM. After few minutes, it became zero visibility.

My favorite part of the room would be their bed of course, plus this closet. Yes, this is a closet. LOL!

For those who are asking, they have an internet connection and SMART TV in the room. Actually, we just enjoyed watching videos on YouTube and listened to music during our stay. Definitely a breather!!!

clyde suites tagaytay

We’ll definitely go back here and hopefully, we can visit the other rooms too! Due to COVID-19, their swimming pool is currently unavailable until futher notice.

WHERE TO BOOK?

They are also on AirBnb. Good news, you can get 1,600 PHP discount on your 1st booking if you sign up here: www.airbnb.com/c/karlaninam

Here is the link of their AirBnb room: Bali-inspired room

You can also inquire thru their FB page which is Clyde Suites Tagaytay

Actually, this is our 3rd time here at Tagaytay Prime Residences. You can also check the other room here: Nest Tagaytay

Kusina Luntian: A must visit place in Baler

kusina luntian baler

Before visiting a place, we make sure that our itinerary will be done well. Last year, we visited Baler over the weekend. Beforehand, we searched for some recommended places to visit when in Baler. What caught our attention was this local eatery in Baler. And this is Kusina Luntian.

ABOUT KUSINA LUNTIAN

It is owned by Kuya Biboy, a former Manileño boy who became a local of Baler for the love of surfing. This restaurant is one of the most recommended restaurant when in Baler.

kusina luntian baler

But here’s the thing, it is only a simple eatery in Baler. Not fancy like other restaurants you’ll see in the highway. To make the experience complete, they serve the food in banana leaves and you have to eat it with your hands, no spoon and fork. HEHE.

All of the food we got were super good! As in no joke, we didn’t expect it to be that good. We promise you, this is really a must try in Baler! We loved their food presentation as well.

  • kusina luntian baler
    Wapang Wapang na Liempo
  • kusina luntian baler

    Paco Salad
  • kusina luntian baler

    Dinangdang na Hita ng Manok

Our favorite of all time was their Wapang Wapang na Liempo! Swear, this is heaven!!! Also, their vinegar is a winner for us! Plus, their Paco Salad is surprisingly good. Most people knew that I’m (KARLA) not a fan of vegetables, but this one is amazingly good!!!

For the desserts, they have this Nalecheng Biko which looks like a sticky rice. The only difference is that it has leche flan on top instead of mango.

For the drinks, we had their Calamansi Juice which was a refresher after long hours of travel going to Baler.

You can also buy some of their products such as Banayad Whiskey, chili sauce, and their yummy homemade vinegar!

If you want to experience their food but hesitant to visit because it’s far, don’t worry, they now have a branch here in Quezon City! It’s called Gubat that is located in Diliman, Quezon City.

Daiesumi Digital Cafe is now open for dine in at SM North

daiesumi digital cafe

Finally! Happy to know that Daisume Digital Cafe SM North branch is now open again for dine in!

daiesumi digital cafe

DISCLAIMER: These photos were taken on March (days before the community quarantine).

This is the first digital cafe in SM North, if we’re not mistaken, their main branch is located in Podium. We went here because we were in love with the inviting and colorful interior.

But what we’re amazed the most was the way of ordering here. When we say it’s digital, we mean it! Each table has an I-pad which has their menu and all you need to do is to choose what do you want to order. That’s it!

Aside from that, you can also customize your drinks here. You can put anything you want on your drink just like what we did.

  • daiesumi digital cafe
  • daiesumi digital cafe

We forgot how we sent the photo but all we remember was they gave us a QR code to scan and it lead us to where we can upload our chosen photo. No additional fee on this one!

We also tried their Blueberry Pancakes, but there’s nothing special about their pancakes aside from it is fluffy. Just our two cents! But they also have bento meals and rice meals in case you want some.

And since Daiesumi Digital Cafe is a digital cafe, you can spend some time here if you want to work or study in peace.

If you are still hesitant to go out but want to try their food, they are also open for takeout and delivery! They are on GrabFood and FoodPanda.

What if we tell you that this place is a former food park? Yes, if you’re familiar with North Hive Food Park, this is the look of the place now.

The name of the restaurant is Tikme Dine which is a Batangas word and means “Tikman Dito“.

Tikme Dine is under Royalcare Marketing Services, which is an insurance company that caters healthcare, fire, car, and building insurance. Together with Tikme Dine, they also have The Royalcare Garden, The Royalcare Venue, and Super Talipapa Express.

Note that the place is not yet fully finished. In fact, the balcony area where we dined in just opened the same day of our visit. This place is ideal for a romantic date night.

Before we go on to the food in Tikme Dine, here’s the complete menu of the restaurant. They have ala carte and group meals.

Now, let’s go on to the food they offer. Since the name of the restaurant came from Batangas, expect that majority of the food here are from the said province.

For the appetizer, we tried their Crispy Veggie Okoy. Most of our friends know that I’m not a fan of vegetables. But since I love the regular okoy, I gave this a try. And it was so good! You can’t taste the vegetables in there. Plus the vinegar dip was so good too!

For the mains, we tried the Beef Wanton Mami. Of course it’s much better if you have Asado Siopao on the side. The beef were so tender plus the soup was flavorful.
