Max Brenner - Chocolate by the Bald Man

One Sunday afternoon, after checking out from our all-expense paid R&R at Acacia Hotel Manila, we decided to drop by Max Brenner – Chocolate by the Bald Man. This chic chocolate restobar is just a stone-throw away from Acacia Hotel Manila so paying it a visit during that time was pretty strategic. Max Brenner has been in my list of to-visit restos as it has been recommended by a good friend who loves sweets for a long time now. So, when I saw that it was just near the hotel we were staying, I knew it was the best chance to give it a try.

The Story Behind Max Brenner

When we went to Max Brenner, we were still so full from our buffet breakfast from Acacia Hotel Manila. So we just tried 3 of their best-selling chocolate beverages.

Hap Chan

Inside Hap Chan

If you’re driving along the highway of Lipa City in Batangas, you will certainly notice this Chinese resto along the way. Hap Chan or Hap Chan Tea House to many is a popular Chinese restaurant with lots of branches in the city. I guess the love of people for Chinese dishes has opened an opportunity for Hap Chan to penetrate the Batangueño market.

Many times, I have already professed my love for Chinese food. From the hole in the wall Chinese restaurants in Binondo to my personal favorite Mann Hann and the newly-opened contemporary Chinese in P.F. Chang’s, all of these food spots are in my heart.
