FOOD NEWS: Sumosam opens in SM City Manila

I'm very impressed with how Sumosam is expanding its business to many places in the metro offering the best Japanese cuisine that is loved by many Filipinos. And recently, the newest branch of Sumosam just opened in the SM City Manila which is offering the very well-loved Sumosam menu.

Present in the opening is the successful entrepreneur actor Marvin Agustin who received awards last year for his success with his restaurants. He is very hands on with the business which in the previous features of his restaurants he is always present and always willing to showcase his skills and also his staff.

FOOD STOPS: Koh Samui Thai Cuisine

I'm getting used to Thai food lately with restaurants featuring Thai cuisine and some even employing Thai cooks to ensure the authentic Siam taste. And lately we came across Koh Samui Restaurant at Hobbies Center in Macapagal Avenue.

From the facade, it would definitely look Thai with the elephants and the golden details at the door. It looks so regal and makes you feel like a royalty. The interiors are a mix of traditional Thai royal halls with some colonial feel with the tables and the bar. It would definitely be a great venue for parties, weddings, and other celebrations.

FOOD NEWS: Figaro Fort Pointe Now Open!

Another branch of the Filipino coffee brand Figaro now opens a new store in Bonifacio Global City at the Fort Pointe. The new franchise store is located at 28th street near Bonifacio High Street, BGC.

This would also mean good news to coffee lovers around the area especially to people who loves to chill after partying at nearby clubs. The store offers all your favorite Figaro drinks, pasta, meals, and desserts. They also have the loved breakfast meals which is gives variety among their pasta and dinner meals.

  

The new store becomes a convenient coffee oasis amidst the large market around it. Since it is located near commercial and business areas which has embraced the coffee lifestyle.

FOOD STOPS: Little Asia

Little has it been known that Asian cuisine is not just noodles and dimsum, it is actually the biggest and most diverse array of flavors which one should actually discover. Little Asia proves that indeed Asia is not only big in land mass but also the diversity of the delightful dishes of the east.

We dined in one of their branch located in Tomas Morato where we also met the owner/manager Charlemagne, that helped us in identifying their dishes which ranges from Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, and many more. But first I have noticed the unusual interiors of Little Asia which is more European and classical contemporary with chandelier, mirrors and seats which is quite far from the eastern ambiance. He told us that  this kind of interior is not new to Asian restaurants especially in China which gives it a modern yet inviting atmosphere.

FOOD STOPS: Wangfu Chinese Cafe

Wang Fu Chinese Café combines the concept of traditional Singaporean Hawker Center and Hongkong Tea House that serve well-loved Singaporean and Cantonese comfort food in a modern café.

Wang Fu takes pride in a full menu of authentic Chinese cuisine prepared by its head chef from Singapore. Whether you go for a full meal or opt for a taste of dimsum and noodles Wang Fu is the café for you. Try the all-time favorite Hainanese Chicken and Cereal Prawns then finish off the meal with a Traditional Ice Kachang.

Great Food Best Paired With The Best Beer!

What time is it?
FOOD ADVENTURE TIME!

I love going on Food Adventures.

And this why I have my own food blog which started as a section in my main blog Manual To Lyf. Fud Fyt has been part of my blogging life since 2009 and have been to many restaurants in and out of the metro. This opened my understanding of food and drinks. From the ingredients, the preparations  the creative ways of servings, and the taste, makes the food experience unforgettable. 

I may not be a big time food blogger, but I do love to take time on details and even the cultural relevance of dishes from different places. Indeed it was an adventure especially when I go to far places like Quezon or Baguio. I also say that drinks are part of the great food adventure with a lot of choices and also countless ways to mix them and even pair them with mouthwatering dishes. 

Years ago, I was not a really a beer drinker thinking that its does not taste good or its will make me feel dizzy. This perspective was probably due to seeing people drinking too much which eventually spoil moments. However, when I was able to try and appreciate drinks such as wine, whiskey  and beer completely broke my negative perception of them. Of course, with moderation and control, everything will be fine.

Now looking at the possible pairs that can be made with premium drinks like the San Miguel Lifestyle Brews: 

San Miguel Premium All-Malt Premium, San Miguel Super Dry, and Cerveza Negra. Each one is distinct and unique flavor that is best experienced while dining.

Among the three variants, I love the San Miguel All-Malt Premium Beer which surprized as it tasted better than the foreign beers that I have tasted before. I consider this the best beer for me. I tried this at an event where they served San Miguel products and chose to try out the  San Miguel All-Malt Premium Beer. The restaurant served Filipino dishes like Bulalo, Bangus, Lumpia and turon!

So if you want to go on a gastronomic journey, its your call. Make sure that you make the most of each foodie moment. Savor the flavor, drink moderately, and don't forget desserts! It's always good taste, great pairings with San Miguel Lifestyle Brews.

FOOD NEWS: Figaro Christmas Treats

It's the most wonderful time of the year 

There'll be much mistletoeing 

And hearts will be glowing 

When love ones are near 

It's the most wonderful time of the year

It's the Christmas season and Figaro Coffee Company is offering sweet treats for its customers with the launch of their Christmas treats available in stores nationwide. Which goes well with their drinks and even with meals. And I'm indeed crazy about desserts!

For this year they launched a very nice variety of choices starting with the Triple Chocolate Cake, a chocophile treat with a very rich chocolate flavor and texture. And yes, I am one so I love this so much <3 .="." font="font">

But the next one should never be missed as it is the Red Velvet Cake which comes with very fiery red appearance but taste as sweet as heaven, just right not too sweet, nor two spongy.

My eyes watered when I saw the Christmas Cupcake with toppings and have this small gold (and edible) decoration. This is just too good to eat, yet irresistible never to be eaten.

And for those who would like to have a toned-down taste with less sweetness, they also came up with Scones which caters to people who are not fans of sugar rush, yet wants to eat something new.

So there you have it, take your pick for your Christmas treats from Figaro! 

FOOD STOPS: Baja Mexicana Cantina

Si! If one is stuck, there is nowhere to go but BAJA. Derived from the Baja California which is actually part of Mexico, the restaurant of takes pride with bringing Mexican cuisine to the  country. It started when Art, who was part of the biggest loser Pinoy Edition came to the country from the US and was craving for Mexican food which was his favorite  back in California, decided to start his own Mexican restaurant in Greenbelt 3 because he was not satisfied with the other Mexican restaurant that got that authentic flavor.

The restaurant stayed true with it Mexican cuisine, and in fact they also deliver to movie goers in Greenbelt 3 Cinemas, so it is a great deviation from the popcorn and drinks. Also the feel of the restaurant brings the ambiance of the west cost Mexico which Baja California is located. They have all the favorites like Burrito, Tacos, Nachos, Fajitas, and drinks like Margaritas and Mojito (which I can say is the best Mojito I tasted so far, but since we dined at lunch time, I have to control myself in enjoying too much of the sweet drink). For our highly recommended, I have to say that the burrito had won my heart and I hope it will not kill me, well just as long I don't eat it in one sitting. 

And you will also be surprised with (what I think) is the biggest Burrito I have ever seen in the Philippines. It can feed a family and a group of friends. It's also a great place for dates and afternoon chillin' with co-workers as it is near the Makati Business District. Plus just a few steps away is the Greenbelt Cinema, so it can also be a great place to meet up before and after the movie.

They also celebrate Cinco de Mayo at Baja Mexicana Cantina, and it is the time that they offer great deals on food and drinks. Mexican food and culture has become so closer to the Philippines. So grab your sombreros and lets have a great Mexican time at Baja Mexicana Cantina !
