romantic getaway at island cove

for valentine's day 2010, junjun and i spent it by availing the package offered by island cove in cavite.

after checking into the room, there were two boxes of chocolate hearts for us to munch on. the room was spacious enough for two people. there was a closet, a veranda, a big bed, and a nice toilet and bath. most of all, there was free wi-fi! ^_^

we ate a box of the chocolate, browsed thru some television programs, then had a nap.

after the nap, at around 6pm, we proceeded to the island spa, where we will be having our massage. it was a nice whole body massage which lasted for about an hour. at the end of the massage, we were given hot tea (with hint of ginger) to further relax us.

we then went back to our hotel room, where we changed our clothes and got ready for the dinner. it was served at the resort's sangley point restaurant. for the package, they had 2 set meals which you could choose from. this comes with a glass of red or white wine for each of you.

first came the seafood chowder. this was very tasty. the soup was creamy and at the same time, you can identify each of the bits of the seafood present in the soup. the soup was accompanied with pieces of garlic bread.

next came the main course. junjun had tuna belly, while i had the lamb with mint jelly. both of the dishes were flavorful and cooked just right. my lamb was very tender, and one could taste the rosemary that was used to flavor the meat.

while having dinner, we were also serenaded by an acoustic band. they sang our song, "till they take my heart away" and "ikaw."

for dessert, we had strawberry shortcake a la mode, which was a perfect ending to our dinner.

our stay also entitled us to use the pool for free, but we decided to just stay in the room the next day until we checked out.

c2 classic cuisine

last february 5, with the invitation of my friend who works at c2, junjun and i had a dinner date at c2.

we ordered the lover's set meal which was offered for the valentine's season. the package included alique rice, crispy ribs sinigang, binagoongang lechon kawali and leche flan.

the food was good. i liked how crispy the lechon kawali was and the veggies on its side. the sinigang was also a unique dish. the ribs was done very crispy and it was served separately with the sinigang broth. the sourness of the broth complemented well with the ribs.

i loved the leche flan... the description was true... it was melt in the mouth. you can be very sure that there was no egg white used. it was just soft, velvety custard. we also had the bibingka souffle, which is not your usual souffle. you could really taste the saltiness of the egg, the coconut... it is like eating a real bibingka that transformed into a foam-like texture.

for drinks (not included in the set meal) we ordered sago and gulaman for junjun and green mango shake for me.

our total bill was around Php 1000.00 pesos. the food was great and the ambiance was nice. it is a place where you can share a meal with your loved ones or friends, and catch up with each other's lives.

cello's donuts

during junjun's post birthday celebration at alabang town center, we bought a box of cello's donuts, which contained assorted flavors.

before, you can only find these donut's at their shop near De La Salle - Taft. thankfully, people from the south can now get them at ATC.

the price for the box is at Php 165.00. The donuts get a little hard though once you have refrigerated them. the flavors were good, but not outstanding.

wicked

we had the chance to eat at "Wicked Kitchen" before the holiday break. i have heard good reviews about this restaurant and we decided to try it out.

since this is located in Mother Ignacia (near ABS-CBN), it was a little traffic, and we were lucky that we were able to get a parking space.

we ordered the broccoli and cheese chowder, sisig rice, bagoong pork rice. their dessert were named after the seven deadly sins, and we decided to try gluttony.

our total bill was a little over Php 500.00. the food was good and we were filled to the brim. the only downside was that the resto was a little small, and i imagine it would be packed during meal times, and of course the parking would be difficult.

we would go back here to try the other meals, and of course sample other sinful desserts. =)
