HKDL BAKESHOP

 

We were so busy conquering HKDL, we forgot all about dinner.  The boys were so resourceful and found this corner bakery along HKDL's Main Road.

 

I was happy with what we have ordered.  Choice is varied and bread truly filling.  Hunger saver!

The Old Spaghetti House at Robinsons Pioneer

 

 This family loves food! 

 

Our most recent favorite restaurant hangout is The Old Spaghetti House (TOSH).

 

An order of their Trio Treats - Celebration Trio is just right on the budget.   

The celebration trio comes with pasta, an appetizer, pizza, dessert and a free polaroid photo with magnetic frame. 

 

It was this good :)

  

Experience TOSH,  come visit TOSH Robinsons Pioneer Branch!

Cerveseria's tasty Paella

 

I was craving for a decent meal, after a week of fast food galore and was so happy I bumped into, a group buy online offer on Cerveseria's tasty Paella...

 

The voucher says good for four,  I think they forgot to mention "provided not so hungry".

 

 

I guess we were just famished,  my husband and I literally devoured everything.

Wish come true... good food!!! - My son wasn't interested though.

 

 

The Paella comes with free fruit shakes, that were just divine. 

 

Very good ambiance - just perfect for an enjoyable family meal.

 

The restaurant has floor to ceiling bookcase which serves as a divider to a more private seating. Furniture and lighting(courtesy of chandeliers which kind of resembles melted candle), gives the place a Goth theme.  Really unique. 

 

The place has limited seating though and if you intend to come on a weekend, I would suggest you call in advance for reservations.

 

Truly one of the best paella I have tasted.  Will be back!

 

Cerveseria is located at Greenbelt 3, Ayala Center Makati.

Panda Cafe Restaurant at HK Ocean Park

 

 

HK's humidity finally took its toll on the kids.

 

My youngest found this lovely Chinese themed restaurant - called Panda Restaurant located at the Amazing Asian Animals exhibits.

 

We were dead tired and the restaurant's freezing airconditioning was really a good come on. 

 

More than the food, I think my kids enjoyed posing with OP's mascots!!!

Panda buns and dumplings...

We were hungry, however, the Chinese food attendant thought otherwise (I think it was the language barrier),  I knew I ordered a lot, just don't know how I ended with so few  ( LOL!!!)

Next time, I am heading straight to McDonalds :D

Corner Cafe @ HK Disneyland

I love the Corner Cafe at HK Disneyland.  I don't know if I was just hungry or they really do serve the BESTest ramen meal ever!

My youngest going through HKDL's map, while waiting for his order.

Yummy, kiddie meal for my hungry 3 and 8 year old boys!
(Chicken fillet with vegetables, mickey mouse-shaped watermelon,
orange juice and blueberry cheese cake) 

My delicious ramen meal!  This picture makes me hungry...

Pap's delicious burger with fries.

Got to go back!!!

Charlie Brown Cafe HK

My family loves this Charlie Brown themed cafe, located at Tsim Sha Tsui HK.  It was just like stepping into a Peanut's comic book with all those Peanut's characters all over the place. 

It is semi-self service and one has to order food by the cashier.  Everything looked real good on the menu, I ended up getting 4 house specials, plus cappuccino for me and my husband and vanilla milk for the kids. 

I ordered Mini Burger Platter, Charlie Brown Sandwich, Traditional Fusilli Bolognaise and Jumbo Snoopy Hotdog.  Yummy...


Food was served about 10-15 minutes later and was shocked when I saw that servings were huge and enough for 2 hungry adults, and I wasn't even hungry!  Oh well...

My son goofing with Charlie Browns hot chocolate!!!

My Bolognaise

The Snoopy Hotdog was huge.  It was as big as my husbands arm  (see his arm at the back?)

The Kids love the Vanilla Milk

My hot capuccino!  So cute, I had a hard time finishing up...

The Snoopy Hotdog and half of my Bolognaise ended up to go :)

Bye Charlie

I really wanted to taste the adorable cakes and pastries, but the burgers, pasta and capuccino already occupied all of my tummy...  maybe next time :)

When in TST HK,  I would definitely recommend this quiet little cafe at 58-60 Cameron Street.  

Charlie Brown Cafe HK is a feast for both your taste buds and eyes. 

Yummy Buko Pie

When in Laguna,  must try is the D'Vinia's Buko Pie.

I must say it is the best Buko Pie I have tasted by far!

And don;t just settle for their original buko pie, go a bit adventurous and try their other Pie variants.  I strongly recommend Ube-Macapuno just heavenly.  I swear, if I were pregnant, I would use it as an excurse to make my husband go back to LDB and buy more.

D'Vinia's has 3 branches in Laguna,  visit one and taste for yourself.

Must BUY and Must TAKE HOME :)

TuttiMelon (GF Active Fun Building, Bonifacio High Street)

The tough work out session we had up stairs running about Active Fun play ground made us easy prey to the Tuttimelon's delicious frozen yogurt!!!

Big hit with my kiddos!!!

Golden Spoon, Ayala Triangle

My kids hate yogurts, but when I brought them to Golden Spoon at Ayala Triangle,  was shocked they actually liked it.    I tried it myself and it honestly tasted like real ice cream - sweet and creamy!

Waiting for their shhh... ice cream :)

Yummy!  It was a big hit with my two kiddos...

See what I mean?  So love ice cream... Mama win!!!

Max's Corner Bakery

One of my proud finds for 2011 is Max's Brazo de Mercedes.

My family ended in a Max's restaurant for lunch, from a family day activity from my son's school. The cakes looked yummy and we decided to take one out for a try. I ordered a Brazo de Mercedes and was quite surprised at how good it was.

Unlike the usual Brazo de Mercedes from leading bakeries, Max's version is entirely filled up with custard. The cake holds up firmly and doesn't run flat even after cutting through it.

I find it quite a bit creamier and yet less sugary than its counterpartsand at P200 per half roll, I think this one is a steal.

A must taste!

Krispy Kreme Donut

Krispy Kremes (KK) had a special series of donuts for the holiday. My favorite is the Snowflake doughnut. It has smooth custard filling and is topped with premium chocolate and sprinkled powdered sugar shaped like a snowflake.

It is a perfect pair to your KK brewed smooth coffee... this donut literally melts with every sip of your perfectly brewed coffee.

I am just sad to see it go and leave KK shelves last December 31! I wish they would bring it back.

So going to miss my Snowflakes :C

My favorite KK shop is located at Valero 2 Carpark Building, Valero St., Brgy. Bel-Air 1209.
