On one fateful day, Yellow Cab saved my lunch when they delivered in the office the innovative premium sauce-less pizza called Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza. And I was able to share it with a few officemates. Woot woot!

Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza

Though sauce-less, Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza is simply awesome since it is topped with prosciutto and herbed boursin cheese. These two amazing stuff are further enhanced by caramelized onions, tarragon, and other premium cheeses. It combines a sweet and savory taste in one amazing thin crust pie.

“Just when you thought you already had all the Great Pizzas we have to offer, we’re now elevating that experience through Mrs. Hudson’s Pizza,” Yellow Cab’s Marketing Manager Coochy Mamaclay says.

 

Mamaclay reveals, “Prosciutto and boursin cheese invites one to embark on a completely different pizza journey. These toppings are, on their own, already very premium and have their own distinct tastes. We’ve taken these and paired them with the opposite end of the flavor spectrum by infusing a subtle sweetness in the pie. The result is a wonderful combination of contradictory taste sensations that very well stand out on their own, hence eliminating the need to add pizza sauce.”

Thanks Yellow Cab for this great treat!

This limited edition pizza comes in three sizes: Php 390 for 10″ (Regular), Php 625 for 14″ (Large), and Php 845 for 18″ (New Yorker). It is available until June 30, 2013. So grab one now!

Akiba is a slang used in Japan that means “Akihabara style”. It pertains to people, mostly older males, who are hooked into fantasy worlds such as anime and manga, and frequent the area of Akihabara in Tokyo. Bringing in a dash of Japan, but not Akiba but with great food and drinks, is Akiba Cafe as it opens its second shop located at Ash Creek in Greenhills, San Juan (first shop is located in SM Megamall).

Akiba Cafe in Ash Creek

Just about its opening day, we were invited to give its food fare a try. The first Akiba Cafe only serves beverages but luckily, the second one serves full meals going from all-day breakfast sets to katsu meals. With empty stomach, we began to unravel what Akiba Cafe has to offer.

I got the Tori Katsu meal (PhP 325), which is deep fried chicken that comes with a saucy dip. Akiba Cafe creates their own sauces and you can choose from the six flavors that they offer. These sauces are Classic, Teriyaki, Japanese Curry, Sweet Sake, Garlic Wasabi, and Seaweed Parmesan. Choose your own sauce depending on the Meal that you are having.

Six Sauces at Akiba Cafe

The Tori Katsu meal is served with rice and a beautifully cooked egg. This is such a big meal and can really fill your tummy to its satisfaction.

Tori Katsu Meal

Tori Katsu with Oozing Tamago (Egg)

What I like about Akiba Cafe’s egg is that it looks fluffy on the outside but it is not oily. And when you cut into it, the yolk oozes out and teases you to devour it instantly.

The Longganisa Special (PhP 215) is part of the all-day rice-slash-breakfast meals at Akiba Cafe. Like the katsu meal that I had, it is also served with rice and fluffy egg.

Longganisa Special

The Fish Katsu (PhP 310) is a breathe of seafood freshness on the menu. The fish is tender and cooked perfectly. For me, it works best with the Garlic Wasabi or Seafood Parmesan sauce.

Fish Katsu

Aside from their Donburi meals (rice meals), Akiba Cafe excels on their selection of coffee and non-coffee beverages. We were also able to try a few of their bestsellers and here they are.

The Nutty Macadamia Kohi (Php 130 – regular, PhP 140 – large) is one of Akiba Cafe’s flavored coffee. The macadamia on this drink gives it a distinct twist.

Nutty Macadamia Kohi

The Matcha Trifle Tea (PhP 110 – regular, PhP 120 – large) is a nice touch to the usual milk tea drinks we have around. This matcha tea drink brought back my fond memories of Japan simply by downing one cup.

Matcha Trifle Tea

Another set of non-coffee drinks, since I’m not a big coffee drinker, includes the Peanut Butter Choco Chiru (PhP 140 – regular, PhP 150 – large) and Black Sesame Chiru (PhP 140 – regular, PhP 150 – large). The Peanut Butter Choco Chiru is something familiar because drinking it feels like drinking a blended cup of Reese’s. On the other hand, the Black Sesame Chiru is good as well. Drinking it felt like cleansing your palate with every fibrous sip.

Peanut Butter Choco Chiru & Black Sesame Chiru

The Original Yogurt Chiru (PhP 140 – regular, PhP 150 – large) is a nice play on yogurt transforming it from a healthy snack into an innovative and healthy beverage. Since it has yogurt, this drink is a bit sour for my taste but others may find it perfect for their liking.

Original Yogurt Chiru

And just when we thought that dinner has ended, Akiba Cafe made us feel we needed to leave room for desserts. They have a great selection of cakes and pastries, and one that I really enjoyed is the Green Tea Cheesecake (Php 130 per slice). I am not big into cheesecakes but I am so into green tea so this one gave a perfect balance for me to close a meal.

Green Tea Cheesecake

The symphony of cheesecakes if the Mango Cheesecake (PhP 130 per slice) and Oreo Cheesecake (PhP 130 per slice) did not grace us with their presence. And by presence, I meant ready to be eaten. The Mango Cheesecake is great – smooth and sweet. The Oreo Cheesecake, well, is for the kiddos and kiddos at heart. It’s Oreo so what’s not to like?

Mango Cheesecake

Oreo Cheesecake

The Akiba Tiramisu (PhP 120 per slice) is the cafe’s own version of this coffee-based cake. This and their coffee would be a nice combo for coffee addicts.

Akiba Tiramisu

I was able to try a new dessert from Akiba Cafe. I usually don’t find this cake in other shops and it was nice to meet it there. The Sweet Potato Cake (PhP 130 per slice) was a playful rendition of a smooth and creamy cake. It looked and felt like cheesecake with less sweetness, which I really liked.

Sweet Potato Cake

Though Akiba Cafe gives that Japanese feel even from the name itself, it is an original concept managed by young Filipino entrepreneurs Kenn and Wesley Ong. These guys are just twenty-something yet they are offering spectacular dishes and an awesome experience in their cafe. So, would I go back? Definitely.

I personally love the cilantro cream dressing on this and just about anything.

Lettuce-Wrapped Burger

For meat lovers, the Brothers Lamb Burger is a half-pound juicy lamb patty that comes with a generous spread of pesto and feta cheese. Mouth-watering and really filling, I was not even able to finish a whole burger. But it was quite exciting for me to have a bite off it.

Yellow Cab Pizza recently took the wraps off its latest chicken wing and potato wedge combo that aims to capture the hearts and stomachs of many – the Galapeño Tango.

Both are something new offered by this highly sought after thin crust pizza company.

The Heart of Galapeño Tango – Parmesan Chicken Wings and Dip

For PhP 345, you can get the Galapeño Tango with 4 pieces of chicken wings and a serving of potato wedges but if you want more, you can opt for the PhP 480 pack for 6 pieces of wings or the PhP 880 box for a dozen. If you want to order the wings and wedges, you can also do so. The wings sell at Php 255 for 4 pieces, Php 370 for half a dozen and PhP 730 for a dozen. The Jalapeño Potato Wedges are priced at PhP 165 ala carte.

The Galapeño Tango – Box of Parmesan Chicken Wings and Jalapeño Potato Wedges

The launch was a treat on its own. We had a feast of several homegrown favorites from Yellow Cab Pizza including the New York’s Finest pizza, spaghetti and meatballs, chicken carbonara, and Charlie Chan.

A Slice of the Finest

That slice of New York’s Finest is so huge that it’s already satisfying for me. Thanks michymichymoo for that sexy, sexy hand!

We also got acquainted with Yellow Cab’s nachos. Lovin’ the dips. Spicy and interesting.

The feast we had can also be packaged into the Galapeño Tango Fleet. Here are two choices depending on the size of your party.

Galapeño Tango is just on a limited trial run until April 30, 2013. Hope this gets a positive response so that it becomes a mainstay for chicken wing lovers with low “hotness” tolerance.

Filipino food is a melting pot of various flavors inspired from the countries surrounding us. That is why Filipino food is a little difficult to put in a box and define. Every lift of the spoon and fork brings something different, which is why we don’t get easily used to it. Even when we are out of our houses, sometimes it is still something that we look forward to have even if we dine out at lunch or dinner.

Primero Casa Filipino

The hidden spot of Primero Casa Filipino offers a buffet of Filipino goodies with a good number of options that change daily. Many of the dishes in this restaurants are served in hot buffet trays. Some are filled with creamy kare-kare and mixed veggies while others with a medley of seafood and steamed fish fillet.

Buffet Area

The thing I liked with Primero Casa Filipino is that it gives a homey ambiance right from the moment you get out of your ride and walk towards its door. It looks like Primero Casa Filipino is a home converted into a restaurant, which is why it gives that kind of feeling. Dining inside the resto makes you feel like dining in one of your friends’ home, which makes devouring all the dishes a lot easier.

Inside Primero Casa Filipino

You can start off dining here with a bit of their appetizers. The popular one is the Sisig Shooters, which a whole new definition to the all-time Pinoy favorite ulam or pulutan. A spoonful of sisig is placed on a crunchy pastry, which is served on top of a small shot glass that is poured with a small amount of soy sauce. How to eat it? Simply pour the soy sauce on the sisig and eat it whole. Remember that this is a little spicy. Who doesn’t want a little kick on their sisig, right?

Sisig Shooters

Another starter on the buffet tablet is what looks like a shot of lumpia. I say pass since I’m not sure if there’s meat or seafood in there. Lol.

Lumpia

There was something colorful on the other end of the table that caught my attention and this was the lovely buttered vegetables. The harmony of different colors is truly eye-catching.

Buttered Veggies

Right beside the veggies are something I wouldn’t miss for the world – a slab of roast beef and another slab of crunchy Zubuchon. I immediately asked for a serving of both and these definitely my favorite on the buffet spread.

Slab of Roast Beef

The roast beef was tender and its juices are still inside, which makes it very succulent. The Zubuchon makes cracking sound with every bite, just the way I like the sinful lechon.

Zubuchon

There was also seafood on the spread. On one of the trays was a medley of seafood and tofu. On a large plate was a huge steamed fish waiting to be butchered.

Seafood and Tofu

Steamed Fish

After several iterations of going to the buffet spread, I checked out the dessert station. In this station are small cubes of different cakes and rolls of mango crepes. There were also the famous Pinoy desserts like palitaw and other kakanin.

Mango Crepes

There was also coffee jelly in shot glasses cooled inside a glass display rack. I tasted one and it’s just right for me. Serving in a shot is enough for me since I am not a big coffee drinker.

Coffee Jelly

Finally, we capped the night with a Pinoy favorite, Halo-Halo in shots again. I am beginning to think that this restaurant is veering towards minimalism.

Halo-Halo Shooters

The buffet spread is pretty affordable with prices of PhP 398 net (Monday-Thursday), and PhP 498 net (Friday-Sunday).

Overall, it was an awesome dinner night with fellow food bloggers, Yedy and Gerry. Special thanks to Kim Marcelo for introducing us to and accommodating us at Primero Casa Filipino.

Tucked in the modest neighborhood of Calumpang, Marikina, Cafe Lidia, is a rustic trattoria that is often packed during lunch or dinner. Despite its location, you can usually see a long line of cars parked outside this resto, with people calmly waiting to be seated and have a bite of anything on their menu.

Cafe Lidia

Creating a buzz in the foodie world since time in memorial, Cafe Lidia has been on my list of restaurants to visit in Marikina for a long time. Unplanned gimiks are the ones that really push through, and one night after a few exchanges of message via Skype, we decided to check out Cafe Lidia.

Cafe Lidia

Cafe Lidia

Cafe Lidia

It was a Monday night and it was far from payday, so I was hoping that there will be no long queues during our visit. But, wish was not granted. We had to wait for about 15 minutes until a table for five became available.

We were immediately taken care of by our waiter. He gave us the menu and attentively took our orders. We asked a few questions from time to time since it was our first time at Cafe Lidia and he was nice enough fill us with the details. He talked to us courteously but in a personal level as if he was hosting his newly found best friends.

We began dinner with a house favorite, the Buffalo Wings (PhP 170). Coated with special sauce and topped with white, tasty cream, the wings are tender and succulent – everything you would want on buffalo wings. Now I understand why these wings are bestsellers, they are really good. I just wish they were bigger though.

Buffalo Wings (PhP 170)

As a trattoria, Cafe Lidia is also pop for its pasta and pizza. We split among ourselves the Pizza Lidia (PhP 225), which is Cafe Lidia’s signature savory pie. It is a symphony of olives, capers, tuna, and anchovies.

Pizza Lidia (PhP 225)

What followed next was a parade of pastas – Pasta Ala Lidia (PhP 155), Pasta Marinara (PhP 170), and Carbonara (PhP 160).

Pasta Ala Lidia is similar with Pizza Lidia but only in pasta form. It is spaghetti with sauce of olive, capers, anchovies, and tuna.

Pasta Ala Lidia (PhP 155)

Pasta Marinara is a tomato-based pasta with special herbs and seafood.

Pasta Marinara (PhP 170)

Among the three, the Carbonara is the one that I found perfect for my liking. It creamy and milky and topped with bacon bits. In short, it was a perfect plate of pasta. It is also a favorite from Cafe Lidia.

Carbonara (PhP 160)

The Chicken Waldorf Salad (PhP 220) was meh, just average. Or maybe I am just not a fan of veggies or apples.

Chicken Waldorf Salad (PhP 220)

The previous parade food were those of my friends’. What I had that night was a plateful of protein – the Rib Eye Steak (PhP 345).

Rib Eye Steak (PhP 345)

I had my Rib Eye Steak cooked medium well. I am still trying to find what level of “grillness” I want my steak to be so I have been trying them differently. So far, medium rare to medium well works for me.

This Rib Eye Steak is cooked just right though it came a little bland in taste. But no worries since it was served with a cup of steaming gravy. I poured it all over the steak immediately.

Rib Eye Steak (PhP 345)

I was so happy with my steak. To add to its awesome taste and presentation, it was a cheap steak. C’mon, where else can you find a good grilled meat at sub-400?

My Rib Eye Steak

We capped off dinner with dessert. We shared three cakes - Marshmallow Cake (PhP 75), Red Velvet Cake (PhP 110), and Brazo de Mercedez (PhP 75). Among the three, I like the Brazo de Mercedez best.

Marshmallow Cake (PhP 75), Red Velvet Cake (PhP 110), and Brazo de Mercedez (PhP 75)

Cafe Lidia’s simplicity and friendliness extends to its decor and its crew. Spread around the trattoria are wooden tables and chairs. Old school posters hang on walls. The interior is dimly lit so as to let people strike a personal conversation. The staff are always all smiles and open to all inquiries, no matter how shallow our questions may be. People around are eating well and are being treated well. In short, everyone is happy.

There is no better way to cap off a tiring week but a chill weekend breakfast with your best buds. And since IHOP, acronym for International House of Pancakes, recently opened its first shop at a corner in BGC, a true-blue foodie wouldn’t miss it for the world, even if it meant falling in line for several minutes to a few hours.

IHOP is a homegrown breakfast nook in the US and though I haven’t been there yet, I have learned about it with the ginormous number of posts of pancakes and French toasts on Instagram. So when I heard it was opening its first store, I know I wouldn’t let a weekend past without paying homage to it. So, I manned up and persuaded my best friends to give it a try with me, even if it meant standing up outside the shop for a long time waiting to be seated.

IHOP Restaurant

Yes, after at least an hour, we were finally seated. We were served by Gelo and he introduced us to IHOP‘s menu.

IHOP Pancake Syrup

Here are the good stuff we tried at IHOP.

The Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes (PhP 255) comes with two chocolate batter pancakes filled with chocolate chips. It is drizzled with powdered sugar and topped whipped cream. There is a buttermilk option for the pancake but I didn’t get it because it might defeat the chocolate chocolate redundancy in its name. I love chocolate so I went with this one.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Pancakes

The Double Blueberry Pancakes (PhP 275) had two pieces of buttermilk pancake filled with blueberries and topped with warm blueberry compote and whipped cream. IHOP seems to like redundancy and maybe you just can’t get enough of something unless it comes in double. In a place where there are not blueberry fruit-bearing plants, I can’t help not to wonder how the blueberries on top of the pancakes kept their great quality.

Double Blueberry Pancakes

Strawberries are not my thing because they tend to be very sour for my taste but not the ones topped on the New York Cheesecake Pancakes (PhP 285). This one had thick and fluffy buttermilk pancakes with rich cheesecake bits. It is decorated with powdered sugar and whipped cream. The icing on top is not icing but large cool strawberry pieces used to crown it. And this pancakes deserved it.

New York Cheesecake Pancakes

The Strawberry Banana Danish Fruit Crepes (PhP 265) is a sweet crepe filled with strawberry and cream cheese. If that is not enough to get you drooling, it is topped with strawberry, banana, and whipped cream. This is good for people who are not into thick pancakes. Light, sweet, and fruity.

Strawberry Banana Danish Fruit Crepes

For those with large leaning towards stuffed pastry, the stuff French toasts are nice treats. Two of my friends ordered the Stuffed French Toast Combo (PhP 365). One had the blueberry compote topping while the other had the cool strawberry.

Stuffed French Toast (topped with warm Blueberry Compote)

Stuffed French Toast (bathed with cool Strawberry topping)

The Stuffed French Toast Combo is served with two eggs, hash browns,  and a choice between two bacon strips and two pork sausage links.

So, was the wait worth it? I’m leaning towards saying yes. It is one of the best breakfasts I had and their pancakes are truly phenomenal. It’s one of the best breakfast place you can go to. Even with the hype and long queues, I will probably pay it another visit soon.

Oriang, named after Gregoria de Jesus (Andres Bonifacio’s wife), is a relatively new restaurant in Market! Market! Though it just opened in the outdoor food strip-like area of Market! Market! (near the open parking area), it is not very new in the food scene since it is created by the same minds behind Cafe de Bonifacio. Thus, they didn’t even fare far from the name by still making it a bit related with the previous restaurant. Oriang was introduced to me by Michy and one drizzling night, I went there with several blogger friends to check out the food fare at this Pinoy resto.

Oriang by Cafe de Bonifacio

Like I said, Oriang is located outside Market! Market! so spotting it is not that difficult especially if you just parked your ride at the open parking area. Oriang has a homey vibe. With its vibrant-colored walls and well-lit dining area, it is a good place to have dinner with friends and family.

Inside Oriang

While ordering dinner, we were served with complimentary Crispy Hofan with Pesto.

Crispy Hofan with Pesto

We began dinner with Oriang’s two best-selling appetizers – the Lumpiang Hubad in Pastry Cup (PhP 135) and Gambas al Ajillio (PhP 275).

Lumpiang Hubad in Pastry Cup

Gambas al Ajillio

The Lumpiang Hubad in Pastry Cup was a creative way to eat lumpia. Being used to eating it in rolled form, this one got my attention because of how it is presented. The Gambas al Ajillio were good. I love shrimps so this is definitely not going out my list.

I mentioned that it was drizzling that night so having a hearty serving of Nilagang Bulalo (PhP 325) is a welcome affair.

Nilagang Bulalo

The meat was cooked just right – soft and tender at the same time. The veggies on this one are still crunchy. The soup was tasty.

Another tasty treat was the Binagoongang Bagnet (PhP 185). Sinful yet you cannot miss bagnet whenever there is a chance, right?

Binagoongang Bagnet

To fill us up even more, we were served with the Oriang Super Fried Rice (PhP 215). This serving of rice is really super as it was sauteed garlic, grilled liempo strips, and Vigan longganisa. The secret to its succulent taste and vibrant color, the taba ng talangka.

Oriang Super Fried Rice

Of course, there should always be room for dessert. Or should I say desserts.

Several Oriang’s Desserts

Starting with Oriang Ginumis (PhP 85), this is a beautiful symphony of gulaman and sago made better by coconut cream and roasted rice crisps. This is like halo-halo that you devour by sipping on a straw.

Ginumis

Something new for me here is the Leche Flan Coffee (PhP 70). This is not your regular leche flan because it is more compact and it has a hint of coffee. I kind’a liked it.

Leche Flan Coffee

Their flagship dessert known as Turon de Gregoria is a good play on the usual turon. Instead of having turon in a roll form, it is served open-faced with a side of vanilla ice cream.

Turon de Gregoria

Special thanks to Michy for tagging me along on this lovely dinner  and to Mr. Jael Wenceslao for accommodating us that night. Til next.
