Hello ots! Who am I and why am I writing another food blog? (Or even just another “blog” for that matter… because hello it’s not 2003, right?) And since I don’t know how to vlog, like I’m supposed to in 2019, I’ll just write a gratuitous post on moi. I did not intend for this … Continue reading Hello Ot! An introduction of sorts
Tadeo is my current favorite restaurant. At first I thought I just liked it. After four visits in the span of three months, I think it’s safe to say I’m in love with it. And here’s why. Tadeo is straightforward yet FUN. You come for Filipino-Mexican food and that’s exactly what they give you — … Continue reading Tadeo (Tomas Morato)
The first time I joined a food tour, I was in Amsterdam. It was also my first time in Europe, and I wanted nothing more than to experience what food and specialties Amsterdam had to offer. At first I disliked the idea of going at it alone; I’m the type who loves to chat with … Continue reading a Hong Kong food tour

Before this trip, Calaguas in Camarines Norte held my number one spot if we’re … Continue reading Balabac, Palawan – that time I visited the “best” islands in the Philippines
I was on a high after eating this course meal. The kind of high that peaks and then ebbs slowly as the hours pass by. I was in awe. I enjoyed every bite of food served, even the stinky cheese we’ve had (more on that later). I took a gazillion photos to my heart’s content. … Continue reading Bistro Manuel (Makati)
The first time I read about this place, I already wanted to go here. That was 2017, I think. Now, two years after, I have finally eaten at Ikomai, and it did not disappoint. Ikomai have silently swept me off my feet. The place looks elegant but understated. For me, that’s the best kind. Soft … Continue reading Ikomai & Tochi (Makati)
