QC Eats: Prologue

Posted on December 11, 2022December 9, 2022 by Karen

I had meaning to try Prologue for the longest time, but parking had always been a problem. No matter how late we attempted to have lunch at this place, it had always been full. Then one fateful Saturday, we discovered that opting for an early lunch was a brighter idea. Don’t be too early though,…

QC Eats: Ippudo v2.0

Posted on December 7, 2022December 5, 2022 by Karen

That weekend, I was building up a craving for Mexican food. It was one of the rare times I was visiting Greenhills and I wanted to eat at Tittos Latin BBQ and Brew. However, having had a lot to wine and dine the previous night, a very greasy and fatty meal from a Mexican joint…

QC Eats: Deo Gracias

Posted on December 4, 2022November 29, 2022 by Karen

We headed to Deogracias without a reservation, hoping that a table was available. The guard who let us park was hesitant at first to let us in, but he told us to simply ask by the door. The maitre d’ informed us that lunch reservations were full, even for their second seating, but the garden…

QC Eats: King Chef SM North EDSA

Posted on November 30, 2022November 29, 2022 by Karen

Having been to King Chef in Banawe, it was a no-brainer for me to try one closer to my home. The branch in SM North The Block paled in comparison to the vast size of the space the restaurant had in their Banawe branch, and it had this awkward L-shape. Initially, we were to be…

QC Eats: Causeway Seafood Restaurant

Posted on November 27, 2022November 21, 2022 by Karen

It was pouring when we headed to Causeway, a Chinese restaurant specializing in seafood. Despite the weather, the parking lot in their Timog branch was full, and the restaurant floor still had numerous patrons. My first impression was that the place was a bit dirty. I didn’t know whether it was the damp weather or…

QC Eats: Melo’s Steakhouse

Posted on November 23, 2022November 21, 2022 by Karen

We put off having meal at Melo’s for something special, and that wonderful day finally came. We didn’t make any reservations, and boy, there really was no need for one — the restaurant was empty. The restaurant had an old school charm that was quite visible upon entering, although frankly, it wouldn’t hurt for it…

Sheraton Manila Hotel

Staying at Sheraton Manila Hotel II

Posted on November 16, 2022November 14, 2022 by Karen

Early on, we knew that Day 2 would be a hectic one. It was, after all, the day of the main event: my friend’s wedding. We did not avail of breakfast at the hotel, but a Starbucks shop was within walking distance to get our morning fix. Our wedding preparations rendered us too busy for…

Sheraton Manila Hotel

Staying in Sheraton Manila Hotel

Posted on November 9, 2022November 8, 2022 by Karen

Honestly, a staycation was something that never crossed my mind. To me, staying in hotels is part of travel, part of discovering something new away from home. But as a friend was getting married south of the metro, it was easier to stay at the hotel where their reception was to be held and simply…

QC Eats: Botejyu

Posted on November 2, 2022November 1, 2022 by Karen

Vertis North It wasn’t until we had a craving for Japanese cuisine that we first had the chance to visit Vertis North’s Japan Town. Here was an array of Japanese restaurants specializing in a certain dish, as was typically done in Japan. Botejyu seemed to be the exception. Upon entry, our server quickly led us…

QC Eats: Uncle Moe’s Shawarma Hub

Posted on October 26, 2022October 25, 2022 by Karen

It was binge-watching YouTube videos of doner kebabs in Istanbul that prompted my craving for some Middle Eastern cuisine. Having dined at Behrouz earlier, we opted to try Uncle Moe’s this time around. The food joint was almost empty except for one paying patron. It was an odd hour when we arrived, and the staff…
