I get to have pictures this time!! I dragged my family to dine here at Quan Ju De and experience my favorite Peking duck around Beijing. I miss it so much that I stuffed more than 3 pieces of succulent Peking duck skin inside the wrap.
Cucumber–check, Onion leeks-check, hoisin sauce-check, and sugar! The art of eating Peking duck, it was kind of fun after all.
The corn coated with duck egg…yummy!! Though of course, you can get it cheaper else where, there’s this G... Read Full Story
Right now, I’m listening to one of my favorite Mae songs called Skyline Drive. It made me reminisced a beautiful skyline in Cebu, which my local friend brought us to see. The place is actually located at the top balcony of Marco Polo Plaza in Cebu called Blu bar and grill. I don’t typically go in such a place like this, it feels so posh and romantic, kind of like a date place you bring a fiance up for a proposal. Well, something fancy for once wouldn’t hurt.
I grabbed ... Read Full Story
By the looks of this, I’m drooling! I have dreamt of visiting this cafe in New York called Serendipity 3 even since the movie was shown (which I enjoy watching again and again…as I bashfully say it’s my favorite movie ever!)
Recently, I saw this being featured in one of the segment in Travel and Living channel and was really intrigue by how it tastes. They say it’s hot and cold which is delicious as it is made up of different chocolates! Yum!
I was looking into... Read Full Story
Last May, my family and I went to Beijing then Shanghai, I opted for Agoda’s deal of Service Apartments as I scouted for better deals.
Here’s a detailed account of our stay in each service apartment, Wanderlust Diary.
It had a kitchen, pretty decent bathrooms, cozy living room area, table for laptop (free internet), huge clean beds. Overall the place was great to go back to after a long day of tourist attraction walking.
In Shanghai, I found a good service apartment, which c... Read Full Story
It’s not usual for someone to order something sour for desserts. Well, actually lemon flavored desserts grow on me, eventually I prefer sour tasting desserts nowadays. Lemon sorbet is a refreshing end to sum up a tasty dinner!
On a hot day in Boracay, my friends and I were waltzing about D’Mall and we stumble upon a cozy restaurant near the beachfront of Station 2 Boracay called Lemon Cafe. It is supposed to be famous for their lemon tarts .
It was actually good….some... Read Full Story
Well, there’s Breadtalk around Singapore and Philippines..quite commercialized nowadays. However, during our stay in Beijing, we were craving for Tour Les Jours, a quite relaxing place to hang out. Actually, I notice more Koreans before. Later, I researched about it apparently, it wasn’t a French bakery like its namesake. It is operated by a South Korean company.
“Tous Les Jours means “every day” in French, and the name expresses the bakery’ commitment to making fresh... Read Full Story
Looking so posh and sentimental, a lot of us commoners were afraid to even step inside the realm’s of Goodwood Park. It was a hotel a stone throw’s away from the bustling Orchard road in Singapore, however it retained a regal stature of some sort.
So fitting that we had to act so glamorous one day and ought we tried the famous High tea buffet read in blog reviews. We went in at around 2 plus I think and surely we were obviously first timers that we couldn’t seem to sett... Read Full Story
My mom wanted to visit this shopping strip in Beijing (Wangfujing) with the thoughts that it was still the same old shopping strip as before. She said this used to look very traditional..with small shops like there in Yu Yuan Shanghai but alas commercialization took the best of the yester-years.
We passed by the exotic food section which I dared my small siblings to try (yet no one brave enough to swallow gross looking insects/bugs).
I was dwarfed by the huge buildings that surrounded ... Read Full Story
While cruising along the outskirts of Beijing (getting back from a tiring Mutianyu trip with my family)…we saw an array of fruits being sold. I read somewhere that the fruit farms were popular nearby the city.
It actually reminds me of one of the outskirt county here in Manila called Tagaytay…but in Tagaytay it’s cooler and more relaxing (seeing the lake with the smallest volcano at the middle)
We actually stopped by to buy some local fruits along the way. My mom acted ... Read Full Story
