The newest talk of the town is here (again) as @macaoimperialteaph officially launched the NEW Cheesecake Halo Halo. Our classic and favorite Pinoy dessert with another twist by Macao Imperial Tea made even better with the addition of their NEW poppin' sinkers.

Sharing with you my sweet adventure with these sweet treats from @campsugarph . I got to try two of the bestselling flavors of their dessert bars: 👉 Brookies - these Belgian chocolate brownies + cookies are fudgy and rich in chocolate. It was more evident when I re-heated and enjoyed it hot since I found an almost gooey chocolatey consistency inside it. Sweet. I like it. 👉 Matcha Cookies - my palate is kinda new to matcha-flavored pastries. So far, I like how it is not too bitter, and not too sweet either, safe to say. It's just enough to make you crave for more. I think it's better when you put a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of it. Visit their social media pages to see the list of offerings.

Share ko lang din this 2.22.22, enjoy a cup of Stick-On-Me Purple Rice plus any drink of choice for only P222.00. Promo is available on any Koomi branches. I scored this lovely Koomi hoodie at @koomi.ph Valenzuela Branch's grand opening, buti nalang umabot kahit pang 40+ na XD (fun fact: muntik pa ngang di umabot, may registration din pala sa Valenzuela, like MandaTrack and di ko alam) I like how #GuiltnessGoodness can now be more accessible to the North people. Chocnut Ka Biscof is a good one, will order it again for sure. My other favorites were Boppin' Boba and Stick-On-Me Purple Rice parin! #KoomiPH #KoomiValenzuela @smcityvalenzuela #smcityvalenzuela #jogpen #notsponsored . . . Want to be featured?

We visited the branch of Paradise Dynasty Philippines at The Podium . It is spacious, and is not populated. Safety protocols were observed too. VIP rooms are available (good for private meetings, special appointments, etc). We were immediately assisted by Jojo (manager) and other staff. So far, service is excellent.

Paradise Dynasty features a wide range of menu consisting of northern and southern Chinese cuisine. We got to try some of their bestselling offerings.

Their Specialty Dynasty Xiao Long Bao (8 flavors) is best eaten in following orders to enjoy optimum tasting: Original, Ginseng, Foie Gras, Black Truffle, Cheesy, Crab Roe, Garlic, Szechuan.

Another appetizer often categorized as a dessert is their Charcoal Custard Lava Bun. It's oozing with creamy salted egg yolk custard.

I must say, I love the Crispy-fried Crystal Prawns tossed in Salted Egg Yolk. The salted egg coating was thick and generous. I can't get enough of it.

Surprisingly, the Lettuce Roll was interesting. It was crispy and the sesame sauce's flavorful taste complements the lettuce.

It's my first time to try their Radish Pastry. It was soft and flaky. The sliced radish has a mild taste. Easy to chew. It's a good starter.

You should also try the Stir-fried Beef with Scallion. This dish highlights a sweet savory flavored sauce tossed in tender caramelized beef.

Spicy Szechuan Crispy Chicken is a serious bestseller too. It's has that spicy kick that's not irritating in the mouth. Chicken bits were easy to chew as well.

Other dishes to try:

- Kung Pao Chicken

- Pork Dumpling in Hot Chili Vinaigrette

- Xiao Long Bao

- Poached Chicken Szechuan Style

- Steamed Glutinous Rice

- Seasonal Fruit (Drinks)

Did you know that Sugarhouse Philippines is also serving party packages too? If you don't have time to cook or you're busy preparing for your party/celebration, then I recommend Sugarhouse Philippine's Take Out Trays! 3 sets to choose from: 👉Meal Box 1: P4,045 Caesar's Salad, Beef Salpicado, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Spaghetti Carbonara, Garlic Rice 👉Meal Box 2: P3,655 Caesar's Salad, Chicken Salpicado, Baked Pork Spareribs, Spaghetti Carbonara, Garlic Rice 👉Meal Box 3: P2,815 Taco Salad, Chicken Cordon Bleu, Spaghetti Puttanesca, Mini Burger Sliders (9pcs) I got the Meal Box 3 for P2,815.00 The serving size for each food is big enough. 📍I definitely like the Spaghetti Puttanesca (tomato-based sauce na maasim). I'm still a fan of Filipino-style spaghetti though. Feel free to put some parmesan cheese as well if you find it too sour (but for me, it's not). 📍The Cordon Blue has a crispy coating and has thick layers of chicken meat, ham and cheese. It's recommended to dip or put some garlic aioli. 📍The Mini Burger Sliders were delicious + it somehow makes you feel full easily. My family loves it! No other comment :) 📍The Taco Salad has generous servings of ground beef and grated cheese on a bed of greens. The tomato salsa is flavorful though I find it not enough because the serving size of taco salad is big as well.

**Take-out trays are available for delivery only. 📍I also got to try the petite size of their Honey Cake. It's a vanilla chiffon filled cake with light butter cream, then abundantly sprinkled with honey crunch. I enjoyed it more when it's slightly frozen and you take a bite of that sweet honey crunch. Their petite cakes (good for 3-4 pax) are affordable and recommended as gifts and for those who have a small family. Sizes of their cakes are: 👉 Regular: 8" 👉 Petite: 4-5" 👉Baby: 3-4" 💻 Order online at www.sugarhouse.com.ph 💬 Message them via Messenger Also available in all branches for take-out, pick-up, and delivery. 📍Rockwell Powerplant Mall 8898-1321/0932-2717732 📍Greenhills Shopping Center 8584-9482/0999-9542033 📍Santolan Town Plaza 8400-8547/0933-8166643 📍BF Resort Las Pinas 0929-3297846/0956-9526821 .

Merienda time! Yung @gotomonster dito sa Makati City, nagseserve na ng Pork Fat Laing at Pork and Beef Spring Rolls! Nakakatuwa na kahit patay na oras na, ang dami paring pumupunta at bumabalik na customers dito (lalo na sa gabi, dinadagsa sila). Sila yung mag gotong overloaded sa toppings, at daming options pa. Pero share ko yung review ko sa tinry kong dishes sa Goto Monster: 👉Pork Fat Laing - masarap, tamang anghang lang, at magata. Masarap isabay sa garlic rice ng Goto Monster. Nagustuhan din ng family ko ❤️ 👉Pork and Beef Spring Rolls - makapal na rolls, malaman at crispy. Malasa yung sauce nila kaya bagay isawsaw yung spring rolls. Okay din namang papakin kahit hindi isawsaw, masarap parin! Syempre, hindi mawawala yung favorite kong Bagnetsilog! 👉Crispy at tender din, may onting alat, bagay na bagay sa itlog + sinangag combination! Sawsaw mo pa sa toyomansi ❤️ 👉Kalamansi Mint - hindi sya sobrang asim kaya di masakit sa panlasa. Refreshing ito! Bagay ipair sa mga fried na ulam lalo na dito sa Bagnetsilog at Pork and Beef Spring Rolls Order na rin kayo dito :) Goto Monster 📍245 Primo Rivero Pablo Ocampo Extension, Makati City 📱 09163002600 #gotomonster . . .
