SUGAR at Seven Suites Hotel in Antipolo: A Dessert Bar

One of the best things to do when you are tired and stressed is to eat desserts. As one saying goes, “Stressed spelled backwards is desserts. Coincidence? I think not!”

There is something undeniably magical about desserts which uplift ones spirit. When one is down with depression or is celebrating whatever occassion with friends/family, desserts never seem to be isolated out of the picture. Sometimes, there is no real need for emotional stress or celebration to eat a scrumptious dessert. Sometimes, we just look forward to ending the day with a sweet touch.

Hollywood Steakhouse: Antipolo Upscales!

The problem with us Antipolo people is that we don’t seem to have a lot of options when it comes to really good classy restaurants here in our hometown. We often find ourselves traveling to nearby malls like Sta. Lucia, or Robinson’s Metroeast. Or we resort to the usual resto/bar stretch along Sumulong Highway overlooking. It gets really tiring, these places. And the town, I mean, come on? Aren’t we tired of the same old fastfood chains? Take it from me. I’ve been here all of my life and my family and I choose to eat out mostly in the metro.

The same goes for the people living in the metro. The problem with the city is its overcrowded and not to mention, noisy. Sometimes all you want is a nice, quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the metro. Tagaytay is too far and people going there should have a car. Summer has dawned upon us and all we really crave for is a cool and breezy transpo-friendly place to hang out after a long tiring day.

Then came Hollywood Steakhouse..life in Antipolo will never be the same again.   

Let’s get down to the nitty gritty shall we? (more…)

Sunshine Meets Cake: Orange Poppyseed Cake

The year started of a little bit bumpy but the road smoothened itself out eventually. I have been blessed in tremendous ways I cannot even begin to expound. I am especially thankful for being well-fedl; this week my stomach has been on full overtime! Bunch of meetings also mean eating to my heart’s content. After work leisure with my aunt and mom means eating out to whatever cuisine we crave for! Please imagine how my stomach feels the whole week: tired but happy! Did I tell you that the theme of the week is Japanese food? I think I had four consecutive days of maki and sushi. I don’t even feel sick of it.. just yet
