d' Bread Kitchen (by Vikings) at SM East Ortigas

Shopping makes me hungry! 

So after sometime scouting shopping deals, me and my financier (a.k.a husband) ended up having lunch at D' Bread Kitchen.

D' Bread Kitchen is a bakery restaurant with a bit of rustic appeal...

I was immediately attracted to the restaurant's signage, that kind of resemble Bread Talks'  (I racked the net searching but nothing showed up).

I think the restaurant was on an opening dry run when we visited as it took a while for our orders to come out...

Well actually more than a while, say about an hour+ for my husband's order. D' Kitchen missed out on my hubby's order! It was a good thing he wasn't very hungry... if it was my order our lunch would have been a different story. 

Food is faultless and the presentation simply levels up the food appeal!

I ordered Chicken Pastel, while my husband had Tocino. 

I forgot the actual cost, but average meal costs P350+.

We finished our meal with a cup of coffee and slices of their chocolatey Chocolate cake

and Ube Lecheflan cake.

I can't really decide which is better -

so I recommend you order both as well!

Pastries and dessert options goes endlessly... would love to try their other cakes as well!

Check out D' Bread Kitchen

at the U G/F or SM East Ortigas Pasig.

Our take out ~ yummy Ube Lecheflan Cake!

Tiolo Antipolo ~ Barbeque, Steakhouse and More

My hubby and I are always on the hunt for things to do, places to go and eat. 

During our last Antipolo day trip (Antipolo is just minutes away from where we leave) we came across "Tiolo".

Tiolo is a quaint restaurant along Antipolo's Circumferential Road, right across Unciano Medical Center.

A little hungry(okay a bit more than just little) we seated and started ordering food. 

The place seats about 20pax.  We were lucky we came on a weekday, otherwise it must have been difficult to be seated. 

My husband ordered T-Bone Steak  (P200).  Serving was huge, but a bit dry and rubbery. He likes his steak tender and juicy.  However, for the price of P200, I don't think he is really complaining. 

Meanwhile, I ordered Cordon Bleu (P100).

This cordon bleu is really cheesy... I really liked it! 

Lumpiang Ubod (P55) is very good too. 

It was flavorful and the ingredients fresh. 

Smoothies (P100+) was just okay. 

I would have wanted mine frothy. 

Tiolo is an overall good place for a quick bite after a visit to the Antipolo Cathedral.   It is a bit far off from the church, hence it is not as crowded.

Food is a bit of hit and miss.  I personally loved my orders, but my husband was not as keen with his.  No worries though, since Tiolo has 3 page full of dishes.

Here is their menu:

2145 Circumferential Rd. Brgy. San Roque Antipolo City

Antipolo, Philippines.

Affordable All Filipino Dishes at Cusinas Restaurant, SM Center Angono

"Cusina" is one of the recently opened restaurants at SM Center Angono. 

I was invited for a visit (and yes some chowtime) the restaurant as part of a Food Crawl event arranged by SM for Rizal bloggers and media friends.

Cusina offers Filipino dishes at really affordable prices.  The set-up like the ever familiar "cafeteria" with a more classy ambiance.

Wall deco ~ screaming Pinoy :P

"Kutsara at Tinidor"

Menu for Almusal, Merienda and Tanghalian/Hapunan varies, but the dessert is available all day long.  

Average Merienda will cost you P50+, while a hefty serving (good for 2 pax) of Tanghalian/Hapunan will cost about P100+. 

Our group got to taste the following:

Laing - P69

Beef Steak - P99

Adobong Pusit - P100

Soon to be launched dishes ~ (prices not yet available)

Kilawin 

(I am not a fan of kilawin, but I know people who would actually enjoy this dish) 

Grilled Tanigue

Baboyong

(Tastes a lot like bagoong, but not salty.  I actually liked it.)

Hamonado (This is very good, I would definitely order this one when I go back).

Rellenong Hipon

(They offered soy sauce dip, but I liked in more with catsup)

There are so many dish options to choose from. The ones we've tasted were really good and servings were generous for the price.

I would be back to try their dessert and merienda dishes.

If you are in the mood for decent priced Filipino food, come and visit Cusina. 

Cusina is located 2nd Floor of SM Center Angono.
