5 Feet, Laguna Beach

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | One Comment

A month ago, we went to OC on a business trip. Thanks to Tito Joey for picking us up in the airport. He immediately toured us and took us near our area and drove us around Laguna Beach and had dinner there. Immediately we had a good impression of the place. Laguna Beach is beautiful!!!!!!!! I wish I had more photos. I was at the back seat so it was a bit difficult to take photos when riding the car, plus my SLR camera was still in our luggage.

It is a small quaint area with nice small shops and restaurants with of course a beautiful beach

Tito Joey took us to 5′ Restaurant. He said it was called that because the chef and owner, Michael Kang, is five feet 🙂

It was Chinese fusion and we enjoyed it!!

Sampler platter of Chef’s favorite appetizers

Hoisin BBQ Prime Boneless Beef Spareribs with Garlic Mashed potatoes and Maui Onion rings

Crispy Mississipi Delta Pride Catfish with Mildly spiced tomato ginger sauce – Tito Joey’s favorite in the restaurant which he shared with us

Amorama Tagaytay

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

On the way up to Balayan for Paolo and Trina’s wedding, We wanted to leave early and drive leisurely and pass by Antonio’s for lunch 🙂 but then we were worried we would not make it on time for the wedding. Newts and Michelle had another suggestion which was an Italian restaurant suggested by their Dad. They were not sure what the name was…only that it began with the letter “A” 🙂 Only to find out it was Amoroma. We had a quick lunch and then continued on to make it to the wedding. Thanks Newts and Michelle for the treat! 🙂

Muñoz-Yupangco Wedding Part 1 Bridal Shower For Trina

By Heart2Heart | Bridal, Foodie | 4 Comments

Around a month ago, in Tisa’s beautiful home ( By Tisa Muñoz-Santos October 1, 2009 ), I attended the bridal shower of Trina. Thank you Tisa for inviting me!

The two lovely sisters I am very fond of 🙂

It felt like we were in a Martha Stewart magazine 🙂 I love the way Tisa set up the merienda

The food came from different sources, but the presentation was so nice and how Tisa put everything together!

I was not able to stay for the games and gift opening anymore….

Family Traditions at Sugi

By Heart2Heart | Celebrations, Foodie | 2 Comments

Sugi is a family favorite on the de Jesus side. So this is where we go on most family celebrations, definitely a tradition in our family. You can never go wrong when eating in Sugi

It is also tradition that we let John do all the ordering, so when we get there we just gobble up all the food and we just add dishes that we like in case we want something he did not order

YUMMY EVERYTHING!

We normally bring our cakes and desserts

Tina brought some cupcakes from Roshan for dessert

and of course her chocolates which she always shares with us

Happy Birthday Dad/Dada!! WE ALL LOVE YOU!

Bistro Filipino by Chef Laudico Part 2

By Heart2Heart | Foodie | No Comments

That same day, Rina and Suharto brought us along for dinner. If only we had the energy they had, we would be with them everyday and join them in their busy schedule whenever they are here:-)

Thanks guys for inviting us to join you for dinner. It was nice to see Doc Arnold and Ginge! We were heading to Eastwood on a Friday night and it was so traffic, we turned back and decided to stay in Makati. Arnold and Ginge were kind enough to make us stay in the area and they were the ones who came over and had to brave the traffic going to Makati. We love you guys and it was all worth it! We chose Filipino because we noticed that Ginge and Arnold like Filipino food, so we chose Bistro Filipino

We ordered two orders of the Trio of Appetizers which was a really nice dish because we get to try all

My order, YUMMY! It is under the salads but I had it as my main dish and I was very satisfied. I took a photo from all angles! 🙂

Rina’s order, I forgot what it was

Order of Suharto

Order of Doc Arnold

Ginge’s order! WOW!!! Looks so good!! I will have that next time. Suharto wanted her to order it so he could pick on it too 🙂

Order of James – Mixed Seafood

Molten Chocolate

Deconstructed Sansrival

Halo Halo Napoleon- YUMMY!!!

Carabao Milk Sorbet – YUMMY!

Menu from Munch Punch
