Congratulations Tippi!! Finally a restaurant where we can enjoy your cooking
LUNCH MENU
Bacalao Fritters
Goat Cheese Ravioli, Olive Butter
Pork Belly, Sauerkraut and Onion Rings
Crispy Duck Leg, Roasted Potatoes – one of their popular dishes and really very good
Crab Cakes, Egg, Hollandaise Sauce, Roasted Potatoes
A meal is never complete without dessert! no matter what! And Tippi makes them as well all from scratch
Pavlova Strawberries- i think I can eat two of these 🙂 Love Pavlova! and Love Strawberries!
Chocolate Hazelnut Tart – their bestseller, also very good
They have a bar menu and a dinner menu for the evenings and we were able to sample two appetizers which Tippi made us try. And even after all that she served us, we wanted to order the bar food 🙂 but they were not serving it for lunch
DINNER MENU which is more or less like lunch with a few more other dishes
Portabello Mushrooms, Baked Egg
Tripe, Lamb Sausage and Bone Marrow Crust – WOW! This was really good!
I suggest to take Ayala Avenue and turn right before RCBC Plaza and that road will lead you to Valero street and to the building which will be on your left
There are a few pay parking spaces in front of the building and we were lucky to get one when we arrived

Around 10 years ago, Mommy Carmeling and I bought a Rainbow vacuum cleaner
It was half the price back then and Mom and I split the cost and shared it 🙂 And after ten years, our Rainbow is still very much alive and working and in good condition.
The Rainbow resembles the Star Wars robot R2D2 and it follows you around the house while cleaning 🙂
I received a Christmas letter and gift certificate from Rainbow and I was happy to accept a visit to check my Rainbow and have my staff retrained on how to use it. What a nice way to start the year with everything new and clean!
I immediately called them when the new year started and was happy to see the salesman who sold it to me, Chito! They just did not send any salesman, they sent Chito who I did not recognize as he lost a lot of weight from ten years ago. Chito has been selling Rainbow vacuums for 25 years ( since it started in the Philippines ) and has sold around 10,000 units already. WOW!
He sat and started showing me everything again. I realized that I have taken my Rainbow for granted and just left it and assumed that the household help have been using it to clean the house.
The vacuum uses water and he will show you how clear water
becomes hazy and you will see all the dust that comes from your house- the floor, curtains, mattress, pillows etc. This photo was the first vacuuming we did for the floor in ten seconds only
Vacuumed the pillow for around 10 seconds just to demonstrate to my household staff
And already plenty dust. Though the pillows are regularly rainbowed according to my staff, Adet
The most dust was from the curtains. This was just one side of the curtains. If that is not vacuumed, then that goes to the air and we breath it
There are different brushes for different uses.
There are companies that offer their services to clean your mattresses for dust mites- they just use a rainbow. Here are the dustmites in your mattresses, pillows, sofas, YIKES! 🙂
Why not have your own Rainbow and just do it yourself? Once every three months will be good enough.
I am now going to regularly check on the staff and make sure they Rainbow the house regularly and properly.
For those that do not own one yet, It’s about time you have a Rainbow. Heart2Heart highly recommends the Rainbow Vaccum. Ten years ago, I was pregnant when Chito came over and right there and then I bought one because I wanted my house to be clean for all of us especially my new baby at that time. I have friends who have Rainbows too and are very happy. One of my friends has two and keeps one per floor and makes sure they Rainbow her house everyday instead of using a broom.
Call Chito and give him a chance to demonstrate and show you. There is no cost for this and no commitments. I told him to expect calls from Heart2Heart friends 🙂
It is one of the best investments I have made for me and my family.

Happy Birthday to again another of my good, good and beautiful friends, Lils!! Lils is the cousin of Jeanne ( Jeanne’s 40th birthday December 13, 2009 ) which explains why she is also blooming and getting prettier every year 🙂 Another 40 year old in the batch.
We have been schoolmates since gradeschool and then groupmates since highschool and 20 plus years after we are still groupmates. I love and enjoy her because I can be myself with her, she is very open and very comfortable talking about anything and anything straight and direct to the point and it is funny how direct and open she can be about the realities in life……..and that is what friendship is all about
We celebrated in one of their favorite restaurants, Je Suis Gourmand, and had a great time with the gang though we missed Yvonne and Pael
