  • Aozora Japanese Restaurant: A Must Try Japanese Restaurant in Tagaytay City

    September 25, 2019 / 0 Comments

    After a long day of exploring the nearby cities at the south, we found ourselves running through the rain in a cold evening towards a Japanese restaurant in Tagaytay City to satisfy our cravings. Aozora Japanese Cafe + Bistro got us more than satisfied. To go in details, here’s an honest review of Aozora Japanese Restaurant. The Place It was pretty warm and it made us mindless of the rain outside. The moment we got in, that’s when I noticed how minimal their interior is. It has a rustic atmosphere. There are no extravagant Oriental wallpapers, murals nor the usual Japanese restaurant store banners but a few Japanese warrior dolls…

While some are into a food exploration, some have already confined them selves into restaurants where their taste buds are familiar and in favor with already. I am a picky eater which makes me part of the latter. I don’t like trying new tastes that much as I don’t want to end up disappointed. However, word of mouth and…

  • Organico Gourmet: An All-Natural Dining Experience

    July 23, 2018 / 0 Comments

    In this convenience-driven world, people turn into everything that is instant – most especially in food; (1) because it’s cheap, (2) because it’s served literally in an instant. Despite the awareness of the destruction it may bring to one’s temple, people seemed not to bother. Simply being mindless and careless about the food intake has alarming effects such as obesity and in worst cases, illness and diseases leading to death. Do you mind about what you eat? Reflect. Amidst the never ending establishment of convenience stores and fast foods in this fast-paced world, there still exist restaurants offering all-natural, farm-to-table dishes which are cooked to perfection making it worth the…
