What is the first thing you remember when you say Baguio City? Aside from its cold weather, it is STRAWBERRY.
Since we just visited Baguio City last month, we’ll be sharing some of must tries strawberry desserts you need to try in Baguio.
STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
Price: 125 php per slice
We all know where to buy this one. This is from Vizco’s Restaurant and Cake Shop, the no. 1 cake shop in Baguio. And for the record, this is one of their best seller cakes.
STRAWBERRY CHAMPORADO
Price: 99 php each
This is the trending Strawberry Champorado from Le Monet Hotel. You can find it inside Camp John Hay. Surprisingly, I loved it! Would love to try it again.
You can also try their Strawberry Milkshake (160 php) to complete your Strawberry food hunting. LOL
STRAWBERRY TAHO
Price:30 php each
You can find this anywhere in Baguio. However, price varies depending on the area. We bought this inside Burnham Park. They also offer Ube flavor and of course, the original Taho flavor.
Since our time is limited, we failed to try again their Strawberry Ice Cream. But in 2018, we tried it somewhere in Burnham Park also. The price varies depending on the area, and as far as we remember, we bought this for only 25 php.
You can watch our Baguio trip last 2018 below! Hehe
Will update this as soon as we get to try other Strawberry desserts in Baguio!
Summer is fast approaching. We have to get back in shape so that our body is perfect when we go to the beach. But, how can we get back into shape if we are always hungry?!
But not anymore, we’ll share a tip where you can satisfy your cravings without having any guilt.
Go! Salads aims to give the best organic and healthy meals and beverages to help us live a healthier life. Each bowl of their salads gives us a hefty serving of nutritious and delicious greens.
History of Go! Salads
Go! Salads was inspired from serving the guests of the Gonzales family household. It is a staple that there is always salad on the Gonzales table at mealtimes. Whenever guests joined them to eat, they are always amused by how healthy they feel having salad in their diet. By their reactions, it occurred to J.R. Gonzales that not a lot of Filipinos have salads in their own homes. It seemed therefore like there was a need for salad or a need to be and feel healthy. This gave J.R. an idea.
The Gonzales’ have their own farm that produce organically grown greens and other vegetables. J.R. decided to experiment with different dressings and toppings and come up with recipes for salads to sell using the family’s farm produce. He started out by selling from the house to friends, neighbors and referrals. When the orders took off placed by frequent and regular customers, he it took as affirmation that salads and healthy eating was a sure need by the market. J.R. decided to conceptualize a “To-Go” Salad joint. In April 2013, Go! Salads first opened its branch in Katipunan.
And as they celebrate their upcoming anniversary, they have a special gift to all of us. From March 13 to 27, all Farm Fresh Salads are up for grabs for only 99 PHP (regular price is 150 php).
We tried two of their best-seller salads and it was really good! Not a fan of vegetables but I guess, I found the right one. LOL. I super love their Sweet Caroline because of the honey balsamic vinaigrette.
Was shocked too because it is serve in a big bowl. Promise, I got full after.
Aside from their Farm Fresh Salads, they also offer smoothies, paninis, ice creams, and more.
Green smoothies (150 each)
We also got two of their best-seller smoothies: Breakfast Smoothie and The Guzzler. Thought their smoothies were not good because of its color but it’s not! I think we found our favorite smoothie!Breakfast Smoothie: Apple, banana, cinnamon, oats, coco sugar, chia seeds, greens, & soy milk
Shredded chicken coated and cooked in our homemade sweet-tangy barbeque sauce with julienne carrots
They also offer vegan ice cream and we of course, we tried one of their best seller which is Mango Biscoff.

We all know that SM North is one of the popular SM branches here in the Philippines. As a result, it has various restaurants inside that make us have a hard time choosing where to eat.
Here in this post, we will share with you a list of some of our go-to restaurants and cafes in SM City North EDSA.
One of our favorite go-to restaurants. Definitely because of their buffalo wings, which we loved! By the way, they just renovated it, and we loved its new look!
One of the cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant in the world. Originated in Singapore, now they are here in Manila! The tender beef and chicken plus the noodles are perfect combination.
Wonder why they always have long lines? We found out the reason why. The food are really affordable and it tastes really good! Didn’t really expect that the prices here are cheap. Must try their Gyudon!!!
Ramen Nagi
Location: Upper ground floor, Main Building
We love ramen so much, and one of our favorite ramen houses in SM North is Ramen Nagi. Not just one of the famous but one of the best!
Looking for a romantic restaurant with instagrammable interior? This is the perfect place for you! The food was good but a little bit pricey, I guess, you pay for the place and the service. Must try!
Craving for some wings and steaks? Here is the perfect place for you. Price is cheaper than Frankie’s, but if you’ll ask us what’s our favorite between the two, our answer would be FRANKIE’S. But their steaks are good!
Nostalgic! Our favorite donut way back in childhood now comes in a bucket with a chocolate dip! If you haven’t tried this yet, this is your chance now!
Now I know why souffle pancakes are hype! They are so good and fluffy! We can’t even stop eating their pancakes. Plus, the drinks are the bomb, especially the carbonated drink!
This ice cream house is originally from Sydney, Australia. They are famous for their sea salt ice cream. We loved the colors and the taste of their ice cream! Perfect for dessert!
How about healthier milk tea drinks for you? This milk tea shop is originally in Hong Kong. Their drinks are refreshing and new to our tastebuds. Not the usual milk tea taste, but why not give this a try? You might also love their flamingo floaties there!
Greens you can trust? There’s no other than Go! Salads. We honestly loved the salads and smoothies here. Also, they serve Vegan ice cream and healthy paninis. Let’s get back into shape, yes!?
The first digital cafe in SM North! Visit them and get your customized drinks and fluffy pancakes here. Not only that, try ordering using the I-pad on each table! When we say it’s digital, we mean it!
Finally, they open a Muji branch in SM North. In addition, they opened a cafe as well. Must try their Ichigo Cafe Mocha. They also offer rice meals like curry and a wide variety of pastries. You can also buy some coffee merch inside their cafe.
This is the Ramen Curry Set from Hakata Ton-Ichi. We got 1 ramen of our choice and 1 katsu of our choice for 420 PHP. We got their Red Ramen and Pork Katsu. The curry was good and the ramen was okay. But their fruit teas are so light and refreshing!!!
How about an unlimited hotpot, grill, and buffet?! Finally, the long wait is over, Hosaku International Buffet is open! We loved the cool conveyor belt and high-tech table here! Also, the place is spacious and well-ventilated.
Listed as one of the instagrammable milk tea shops around the Metro. Black Sugar has opened a new branch in Ayala Malls Manila Bay. We already went to their first branch which is located in McKinley West. If you want to check our review there, kindly clink the link here.
What I really loved here is the interior. I loved the branch in Ayala Malls Manila Bay than in McKinley West. The chairs and the backdrops are so extra.
I can’t help to take some pictures in this place. Just look some of the outputs:
Aside from the place, the drinks and snacks here are absolutely good and delicious. From the wide variants of drinks to rice meals and snacks and desserts, they have it!
For the drinks, I really liked their cups because it’s also reusable.

Surprisingly, our favorite would be the Dreamy Strawberry Charcoal! Last time we tried one of their Charcoal Series, we didn’t like it so we’re happy that we picked the right choice!
Looking for an affordable soufflé pancake? You don’t need to worry because the famous soufflé pancake in Taipei is now finally here in Manila.
Even though their stall is a bit small, I enjoyed their pancakes and drinks so much! What I loved about their pancakes? It is so fluffy, airy, and almost melts in your mouth!
Making of souffle pancakes
We had their Milk Tea and Creme Brulee soufflé pancakes. We really tasted the milk tea flavor, loved this! For the latter, just an opinion, hope they will improve their presentation. It doesn’t look enticing but it is so good, promise!

Creme Brulee Soufflé Pancake (140 php)
If you want to try the other flavors, here is their menu:
For the drinks, we tried one of their carbonated drinks, the Lychee flavor, and it was so refreshing! Highly recommend this drink especially if you’re a soda lover. For the Milky Marble, it is just a typical milk tea drink.
