Sweetmates

I’ve been passing by Sweetmates in SM on my way to the parking lot ever since I can remember, but it wasn’t until last week that I finally got to sample the various desserts they have to offer.

I am a sucker for desserts, and because I have a friend who makes awesome desserts, I am quite the critic when I sample anything that she doesn’t make. I’ve often been disappointed by too-dry chocolate cakes, hard-as-rocks cookies and yolky-gross cheesecakes that I think I may have actually developed a phobia and trying out new dessert places is not something I would normally do, I tend to stick to what I know because I know I won’t be disappointed, but once in a while, I feel adventurous and allow myself to leap without looking.

 

Lucky for me, Sweetmates did not disappoint and I was pleasantly surprised by how good everything I sampled was.

Beggang Resto Grill

October 22, 2012 in Beggang Resto Grill, Comfort Food, Family Style, Filipino Cuisine, Restaurants, Reviews, Where to Eat in Baguio?

Beggang Resto Grill, found in the skating rink of Burnham Park is a family restaurant that serves Filipino cuisine. I find myself in this restaurant whenever our group, the Cordillera Bloggers/Baguio Bloggers Society, holds a meeting because it’s accessible to everyone and because Vince of LakbayBaguio.com (Cordillera Bloggers founder) likes the food they serve. I found myself here once again for dinner with my fellow bloggers one fine night.:)

I have already eaten here once before for lunch, right after the First Baguio Blog Conference, with Kat and Gaby Keith, but did not manage to take photos then.:P Or perhaps I did, but just can’t find them. LOL.:))

Balut, Baby!

Balut. What more can I say?

Most people find it gross, I can understand that, it’s one helluva ugly looking thing. It looks disgusting, but if there’s one thing in life we have learned, it’s that looks can be deceiving.

The Balut egg is a fertilized duck egg, harvested when it is only about 2 to 4 or more weeks, it is harvested depending on how big the chick people want it. Some people like the chick to be like really developed, complete with a beak, feathers and limbs. Eww!:-& I like it when you can barely see it, just before it gets feathers, if it has feathers and a beak, forget it!=;
