Cafe d' Asie at The Bellevue Manila

My wife found this excellent deal at Ensogo. For only Php 650 you can enjoy a wonderful buffet lunch or dinner with unlimited Iced Tea at Cafe d Asie at The Bellevue Manila. Original price for the buffet is valued at Php 1,307 which is a good deal as you get to enjoy a wide variety of foods from their buffet at half the price. Cafe d Asie has an assortment of foods from Japanese, Dim Sums, Mongolian Cuisine, sea food and grilled items. Had a great dinner with my wife and was so full that I wasn't able to sample all of their foods.  Personally my wife is not an Iced Tea lover, but she absolutely loved the Iced Tea that came with the package. Well we could always go back next time to try the other foods on their menu.  Cafe d Asie has a warm cozy feel to it and you could meet casually with friends and family. The staff and on duty service manager was very accommodating and friendly which made our visit more enjoyable and relaxing. The Service manager even told us that we could have our parking ticket validated so we could avail of the free parking.  Kudos to the Service Manager and his team.


Sample their desserts and treats, which is not just eye candy but is guaranteed to tickle your palates.

Too bad the voucher ends on July 27,2011. 
We'll definitely come back to Cafe d Asie at the Belleveu Manila, If not for the food, definitely for the
experience.

SM Muntinlupa, SM Cinemas and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II in 2D

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows - Part 2: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack [+video] [+Digital Booklet]

Technology has greatly increased the quality of movies. Stunning visual effects and captivating graphics has taken movies into a whole new realm. The advent of 3D movies has also taken movie goers into a whole new experience. Now a days 3D movies are becoming the new standard for Movies. But this does not entirely make 2D movies obsolete.  As there is a huge difference in price and not all movies are themed for 3D viewing.

We've been going to SM Muntinlupa for the last 3 Harry Potter films now and have found it to be enjoyable.
The cinemas are relatively new so the seats and carpeting still smell good and are in good working condition.
There are no long queue's at the ticket booth and the Cinema Entrance.  The Cinema is rarely filled-up so you
could choose a nice seat to occupy. Just to make sure it is best to go see the 1st screening time or last full
show. Always bring your jacket in case the air condition becomes too cold. SM Muntinlupa is ideal for people living in the Muntinlupa and San Pedro Laguna. For Php 141 only, you can enjoy movies such as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 in 2D.  Though it is better to see the last installment of the Harry Potter series in digital 3D as this episode is more action packed and visually captivating than the previous installments.  

Nevertheless watching movies at SM Cinemas Muntinlupa is a blast especially if your just out to have fun, relax and enjoy a movie...

My wife came upon a deal from Ensogo for a Php 500 gift certificate for only Php 250 which is valid for 3 months, from May 7, 2011 to Aug 7, 2011. The promo is valid for a choice of any dish with refillable iced tea at San Mig Alabang Pub and Restaurant. However, you could only use a maximum of 3 vouchers for every visit. This is such a sweet deal as you get Php 1500 worth of food for half the price. What's nice about this deal is that it's transferable and may be given as a gift.  Just make sure you consume the entire amount of the voucher as any unused amount is non-refundable or returned as cash. This voucher is valid for Monday to Saturday only, exclusive of public holidays. We used 3 vouchers for lunch with a total of 7 adults and 2 kids. Had a great time with good food, a nice conversation and with plenty of take-out to spare. I was still in college last time I visited a San Mig branch and it was good to see that they were still open after so many years.

Tony Romas's Alabang Town Center


July 2011

Passed by Alabang Town Center and was handed a Tony Roma's Alabang Anniversary Card which is good for 25% discount for lunch and 20% discount for dinner.  Unfortunately, we just finished eating lunch. This would have been a nice deal as we have always loved Tony Roma's ribs and grilled items, not to mention their corn on a cob. Tony Roma's Anniversary Card is only valid in their Alabang Branch and is good up to August 31, 2011 only. The offer is only valid on Weekdays and cannot be used with other promotions or packages.  Nevertheless, the discount is still a good deal.

CAV Wine Shop - Cafe

Twice a month, my wife and I go on a date minus the kids, to talk, unwind and relax. Last time We had dinner at Cav Wine Shop and Cafe located at Lot 5, Quadrant 8, Bonifacio High Street, Fort Bonifacio Global City. Although were not really wine lovers, We really enjoy, excellent food, wonderful surroundings and good conversations. Cav Wine Shop - Cafe though more famous for their wide variety of wines, serve excellent food which works best with wine. Serving is filling but not heavy on the tummy. Price is quite expensive, but ambiance, food and service is well worth it, especially if your out on a date and trying to impress the ladies. Good thing we came upon an excellent deal from Deal Grocer for 2 Lamb Shank meals worth Php 790 each.  Since, we still driving home to Laguna we decided to order tall bottomless glasses of ice cold water which also goes well with the food.


Ordered a 1/2 Oysters as appetizer.


Cav's Lamb Shank is filling but not heavy on the stomach.  Texture is soft and easy to chew.  Taste is great without leaving an after taste in your mouth.  We'll definitely drop by again soon.

Cafe Mary Grace Greenbelt 2

Had a chance to be invited to a birthday party at Cafe Mary Grace Greenbelt 2 last month. The place wasn't really that big not enough for a large crowd, just enough for an intimate celebration with family & close friends. Cafe Mary Grace had 2 floors, so you could either rent the whole place or book the whole 2nd floor. The food was great as expected. What caught my attention is how Cafe Mary Grace was set-up. It has a cozy and warm feeling inside. This made the place very nice for family and friends to meet, enjoy nice food, and a good conversation. We were so impressed by the decor and arrangement that I even told my wife that if we were going to remodel our house, I wanted it to look and feel as cozy as Cafe Mary Grace. They even have a kids play area. unlike most play areas, theirs had a sort of fairy tale theme to it. Loaded with books and educational toys you could leave your child there while enjoying the food and conversation. Had a great time at Cafe Mary Grace, we'll definitely visit again.

Esquivel's Garden & Resort San Pedro Laguna


A few weeks ago We decided to celebrate my daugther's 1st Birthday at Esquivel's Garden & Resort San Pedro, Laguna, instead of deciding to celebrate my daughters 1st Birthday via traditional fast food chains, such as Jollibee, McDonald's, Burger king, Shakey's Pizza, Pizza Hut, etc. Since it was my daughters 1st ever Birthday party, We wanted it to be a bit more special so we decided to have it via pool side, so guests could also take a swim after enjoying the party.  You could also rent the resort for day and over night swimming. However, the size and area of Esquivel's Garden & Resort makes it more suitable as a function or party venue.

With landscaped gardens and a variety of flora and fauna. Esquivel's Garden & Resort is ideal for parties and functions.
Maximize the available space by placing extra chairs and tables beside the pool area.  This will also give your guests an option to have a more scenic view beside the pool and garden. Just make sure to place tents in the event that it rains.

Cool down or have a picnic under their nipa huts.

The pool water is clean and seems to be regularly replaced as the smell of chlorine is not strong and itchy to the skin.


* For Php 7,000, you could rent the whole place for 12 Hrs. day rate w/ 1 free air conditioned room w/ CR and Cable T.V.
* For Php 9,000 you could rent the whole place for 12 Hrs. night rate w/ 1 free air conditioned room w/ CR and Cable T.V.
* For Php 16,000 you could rent the whole place for 12 Hrs. night rate w/ 1 free air conditioned room w/ CR and Cable T.V.
* You could also rent additional rooms for Php 2,500

* Prices and packages may change so it's always better to call and clarify.
Address: Blk.5, lot 1, berlin St., Villa Olympia Phase 1A San Pedro, Laguna.
