We Filipinos are western, and we're oriental too. We just love food! I am one of the guilty here :)
When we eat foreign cuisines, as much as possible we want to have it as authentic as possible as like we are travelled by its taste. I am a lover of Japanese food and recently I found one of the most authentic Japanese (from I've visited) resto here in Metro Manila.
From the store's outside look, you'll be encouraged to eat here if you're a Japanese food lover because it makes you feel you are in the streets of Japan. You'll be even more amazed to see how they made it to look authentic Japanese place inside.
I even loved Unakichi more when I finally tasted some of their menus. I love Japanese foods but not really good into food names. But I believe me and my blogger friends ordered this "Unakichi's set meals," this is Unakichi's set meals. We preferred having Unaju Jo Set since it's already in set meal it is more sulit and cheaper than having these dishes individually.
We ordered different Unakichi's Set Meals:
UnaJo Jo Set (Grilled eet)
Tempura Set (2 Prawns with Vegetables)
Tori Karagae Set (Fried Chicken with Yurinchi Sauce)
Sake Saikyo Yaki Set - Grilled Best Salmon dipped in Saikyo Miso Saba Shio yaki Set - Grilled Mackerel
(See Photos Below)
All of the set meals comes with rice, soup, salad, pickles and fruits!
Of course, let's tackle my favorite part, the dessert! we tasted their Singenmochi (Sticky Rice Cake)
and Green Tea (Matcha) Ice Cream. This actually became one of my favorite desserts today, its my first time to try a sticky rice cake with an ice cream!

I remember myself dreaming and imagining of going to greece and Santorini during the launch of James Reid and Nadine Lustre's show "Till I Met You." The place is just too beautiful, simple and most of all it seems so romantic there.
Honestly speaking, I am on this stage of my life in which I think I'm lost right now, lost that I really don't know what to do, if to land a job or just keep pushing harder in blogging, I'm on this stage that I'm discovering what myself really want. I'm on this stage in life that I want to be sure this time, I'm afraid to commit another or mistakes again in my decisions. Because yes I admit that I really had wrong decisions made the past years like instead of pursuing my studies, with my thoughts of having a "shortcut" in life, I instead invested in a business that unfortunately I lost in it and ended up to be a longer way for me.
I don't know if it's just me but I am really a fan of Korea/Koreans in many things like their skin tones, culture, their place, Koreanovelas and fashion! And we'll be talking specifically about Korean fashion for this post of mine, since I was invited recently by Mall Of Korea in their soft-opening.
Mall of Korea is the first largest Fashion Retail Haven in the Philippines, its for all those who love Korean Fashion. Located at the 2nd Floor of Metrowalk Complex, Ortigas Pasig
City. From stylish clothes, cosmetics, accessories, and other
fabulously interesting Finds.
The person behind Mall of Korea is Nina Lee - Korean designer since 1975, Opened her Eirst branch in Myeongdong, Korea, Has more than 60 shops in Korea, Director of Korea Business Association 1987 - 1992. We should thank ma'am Nina Lee for loving the Philippines and bringing authentic Korean fashion in the philippines.
As I mentioned, I got the chance to visit Mall of Korea at Metrowalk, Pasig. I must say its really the biggest authentic Korean fashion hub that makes it so far the largest Korean fashion hub in the Philippines.
Im impressed to see how spacious Mall of Korea is, it has complete section of fashion accordingly for Women, Men, Kids, Toys and even accessories and jewelries.
Moreover, aside from fashion stuff, Mall of Korea will be soon to have Cafe, Spa and Salon! So we won't be needing to go to different places to shop, eat and relax because Mall of Korea will surely be the perfect place for all of this!
Mall of Korea is so generous to give me a shopping spree during my visit, so I nevermind of getting tired roaming around Mall of Korea because there's so much option to choose, especially for girls that have always the more stuff than boys when it comes to fashion boutiques. But in fairness to Mall of Korea, they have a section for men, not that much as girls' though, but they have all from Polo, shirts, sandos, pants, shoes and more.
What did I have my self from Mall of Korea? I bought myself a pair of polo and short with socks, not bad. The prices are affordable, I mean there's much to choose based on your budget, I must say it's worth your money since these are authentic Korean Fashion, shop here or bring yourself to Korea to buy there, it's also a nice idea if you want to travel to Korea, why not? But for ones like me who just want to have the best authentic Korean fashion the fast way, Mall of Korea is the answer.

Quim's Cake and their promised 5M worth of free cakes as Duterte wins
-Food Review Tuesday, July 12, 2016
Some of us, if not all, may have seen or heard this news of free cakes to be given free if Rody Duterte wins for president. He did, so what now? this is the big question for everyone who knew the announcement.
I was one of the many netizens who knew this declaration and I'm one of the ones who's hoping to have a free cake!
And just recently, I got an invite from Quims Bakeshop for a review and I confirmed that yes, they are giving away free cakes and they are staying true to their promise.
When I went there, in fact it's their first day of giving away cakes, it's a slice though but still cake is cake! and I appreciate that they made effort to push their made promise, contrary to saying that "Promises are made to be broken."
The first claimant of the free cake was all the way from Paraรฑaque, and when asked what made him still be interested to claim a slice of cake even he is that far from Quims cake? he answered he just really wanted to prove if Quims Bakeshop is keeping their promise. Chef Jack Labang who made the announcement of free cakes, personally handed the free cake to the first claimant. Since Quim's cake promised to give 5m worth of free cakes, it distribution may take to 5 years. The cakes will be given away every 1st and 15th of every month (until they reach the P5 million target) to the first 50 customers who register via email (quimscake@yahoo.com) or visit their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/quimscakebakeshopcafe for more information.
Apart from cakes, Quim's Bakeshop has many more to offer. I've tasted some of their menu during my visit there, like their Bolognese Pasta, Red Hot Dory Burger, Pulled Pork BBQ Burger, Roasted Pork Belly and and I must say they really have good tasting food. They have pastas, burgers, sand wiches, pizzeta, all day breakfast and main courses. Aside from cakes for desserts they have Ice quims (Ice creams), cookies and even doughnuts! So definitely they have all of what you can crave for!
