Focaccia

One day, after driving from Roxas Blvd. to Pasig via Kalayaan Avenue, I decided that I explore Bonifacio Global City – walking from Serendra to Bonifacio High Street to The Fort Strip. Since I was a commoner of Eastwood City, I decided to have a change of environment by walking around this place. I was also meeting a friend that day who was coming from Makati and we decided to have late lunch in Focaccia.

I have been hearing about Focaccia a lot from another friend so when I had the chance to try it, I did. Focaccia reminds me of Italliani’s but with a bit cheaper prices on the menu.

I am very particular when it comes to the places I stay when I am traveling. When I go on a vacation, I make sure that I get a comfortable place to stay during that time. If it is my first time to visit the place, I ask people I know who have already gone there. I ask them about the best places to stay and if the rates are reasonable. I also check the internet for reviews about these hotels. There are many websites that offer this information and sometimes, you can even book a hotel through them.

When we were in Singapore, we stayed at Value Hotel Thomson. I checked out websites that show hotel information in Singapore and Value Thomson Hotel has one of the best ratings from travelers and a reasonable price for me. We booked our reservations through their website and we got instant confirmation from them. The great thing about booking with them in advance is that they don’t bill you instantly. A week before traveling, you need to confirm your stay with them. If not, you can still change your mind and you won’t billed for making reservations from them. Convenient.
