Tried out a place by a car shop!! It’s in the Saatchi House in Pasong Tamo
You have to go in the narrow road till the end
Till you see the car shop. My husband discovered this place while he was checking on our car that was being repaired in European Motors. He was so happy to tell me about it because he knew I would like the place.
There is outside seating because I can imagine this can get full
What a cute place 🙂 It’s a glorified cafeteria 🙂
Love the menu names
Margie noticed this rockstar Ely Buendia of Eraserheads. I did not know who he was but apparently he is very popular among the young! No wonder I didn’t know haha!! 🙂 I asked the server to take his photo because I was shy, he was with a lady 🙂 and they had the whole second floor to themselves 🙂
Margie chose food from the counter – Tinumis and Chicken pochero with rice
and coke which came in a small bottle 🙂 She had to order two 🙂
Tino’s Paborito ( longganisa from Isabela ) which I asked Margie to order since what she ordered was her choice 🙂 We enjoyed this dish for only P 105.00!!
Our bill for all that!! 🙂 Margie said she will just eat here everyday! 🙂

My nose is so sensitive I can smell anything and everything even from far away 🙂 I have colognes, home sprays, and all kinds of sprays to remove smell 🙂 I am definitely keeping a bottle of this in my bag and it will be good in different parts of the house! A great invention by the Urban Alchemist and you can order through them or online through SeektheUniq

Heart2Heart has been to Tagaytay quite often the past few months and loving it 🙂 Our friend, Maryliz of Hillcreek Gardens, told us about this place near Hillcreek called Lime and Basil. It is in the same street as Marcia Adams. This area is actually Alfonso Cavite – I love both!!!

The owner was there, Sigrid Sarmiento
Beside the restaurant lot is another lot which has it’s own entrance which reminds me of a resort 🙂 And there is even a golf cart in front 🙂 This is their residence with her parents
You can see the house from the restaurant
Lime and Basil – I Love Thai Food, I love Tagaytay 🙂

Sigrid has a Thai Chef but he was not there that day, so she was the one in the kitchen cooking 🙂
Khuo Tung Na Tang – Prawn Crackers, ground pork, coconut milk dip – YUM!
Maeng Khum – Just wrap everything inside the wild pepper leaves which comes from the Songkran Garden of Lime and Basil – YUM!
We had all kinds of rice 🙂 Catfish flakes fried rice
Jasmine rice
Crispy Pata curry!!!! First time to eat Crispy para curry style 🙂 YUM!!!

More collage classes 🙂
Squeeze some creative fun into your life.
THE ART OF COLLAGE
Classes begin on June 7, Saturday.
For info: tootsmagsino@gmail.com; 0920-9647913
My good friend, Toots, is so creative! She is the collage Queen 🙂 She does this as a hobby and a profession as she is an artist 🙂 Collage is not just an art piece, you can apply it to many things like this gift bag for example 🙂 Toots made this for me and gave it to me for my birthday 🙂 It’s so personalised because she knows I like pink. It’s a bag that’s so pretty I used it again and passed it on to another dear friend of mine and I am sure she will reuse it again
Not only does Toots have classes, she can organise a Collage party!!!! What a grand idea!!!
My batch mate Lally, arrived from Canada, so instead of just having a dinner, the get together was made into a Collage party
This is how each of them described the party 🙂 It’s interesting what Art can bring out and what it can do to you. It’s not only a work of art, it’s not only the act of making something, but read on to see what they have to say
According to Clarissa, they each had to explain what their work was about – The Collage they had to make was – Where you are now and where you want to be in the future. Here are the finished works of the group
She even had personalised giveaways for each participant

Saw this gigantic chair in the Sta Elena house
It’s really the trend now 🙂 I am so glad it’s made in the Philippines 🙂
From Manila Fame
From Jenni Epperson’s instagram
Peacock chairs and just big gigantic chairs for for any Ms. Universe or anyone who wants to be Ms. Universe and we all are 🙂

This is one of the most beautiful homes I have ever seen in the Philippines. It has beautiful architecture and everything inside it is beautifully done with quality materials and furniture and accessories. Another reason I love it is because it is Filipiniana. We are in the Philippines, we should build Philippine inspired homes and promote our very own. This house is designed by Architect Manny Miñana who did such an amazing job!!!
View of the golf course from the front of the house
Back view of the plants in the front of the house
Take note of how big everything is in the house 🙂 And the valuable pieces inside like this wooden table
Filipiniana accessories all over
Beautiful antiques
First wing is where the Master bedroom is and 2 more bedrooms and a den
Master Bedroom
Massage Table in the dressing room. If I had a big house, I would probably have a separate spa 🙂 because I love Spas 🙂
Bedroom 1
All the bathrooms in the house are standard having the same fixtures and look. It’s a good idea because it gives the house a unified look wherever you go
Guest room
Which opens to a pocket garden
Den
I would not mind working here all day everyday!!
The house a three structures. I am featuring only two since the last one is not yet finished. This is the middle structure where the common areas are – living room and kitchen
Beautiful marble wall!
I love this Filipiniana chandelier
Roche Bobois Mahjong sofa
Extension of the garden which faces Sta Elena Clubhouse
View of the back of the house from the Golf Course
Love this part of the house and I am sure more people will hang out here more than the living room
