I spent my last weekend as far away as I could get from Manila, and it was in Cebu where I landed. It was supposed to be a ticket to Sinulog, but Mica booked the wrong date. Though that was the case, I knew it was there, at that time, for a reason. Looking back, I wouldn’t have wanted to go there on another date. As all of my trips out of town, it was filled with scenic places to visit, yummy food to taste and really nice people to meet. What more can I ask for?

Mica and I arrived before 6am. It was still pitch dark. We decided to go to McDonalds first and have breakfast, before checking in our own hotels. I stayed at the Sampaguita Suites along Gen. Maxilom Avenue again, simply because it was cheap and decent, with free wi-fi in the lobby. Since I figured I am not staying in my room most of the day, why would I book a hotel room more expensive than 700 pesos? Continue reading →
Hi guys! I haven’t blogged here for a long time now. I had a lot of stuff going for me: I write at Blogwatch.ph, covering the 2010 Philippine Elections with different bloggers, writing my thesis in Public Administration (for me to graduate this year) and some other stuff. I had no time to update this and Manila Foodistas. But now, I’m vacationing in Cebu, and I had this opportunity to blog and update this site!
I had fun touring Cebu City, Mactan and other places (those posts will have to wait for now) but I would like to share this impromptu video/ short film my friend Mica Rodriguez conceptualized, with the help of Winston Almendras (as the cameraman). This was shot, without permission, in the Waterfront Hotel in Cebu City.
I hope you enjoy the video, please visit Mica’s Project52Weeks to know more about the video and to see other similar great short films she directed.

Lujean has never been a fan of yogurt. “I just don’t get why something that looks like ice cream isn’t as sweet as ice cream.” That said, today Lujean and I were looking for a place to hang out in Megamall and we stumbled across the recently opened Tutti Frutti. She decided to let me try it out. “Well, imagine my surprise when I ended up liking it as much as he did,” Luj explains. Continue reading →
