 The original Zuma is this one in Knightsbridge, London.  We have been to two out of the 6 ( as of 2013 )  in other countries and we love Zuma.  This is probably the best so far among all

Zuma at the St.  Regis Hotel Bangkok February 2, 2013 

and now they have 8 with New York and Abu Dhabi as an addition

When you order sashimi and sushi, they put it together in a nice arrangement like this 🙂  It varies depending on the order and the platter changes as well.  I saw many passing by and on the Sushi counter

Very good service – Bharat was overseeing our table and we are well taken cared of

 It’s very busy at Zuma,  so it’s quite difficult to get a reservation 

Seared Salmon with Lime Shiso Soy- I don’t really like Salmon too much but to me this was amazing!

Miso fumi no foagla umeboshi Zoe – seared miso marinated foie gras with meboshi compote – very good quality foie gras!

The beginning of the maze at Kensington Gardens leading to the Orangery 

SO LOVELY!!!! This is what I mean why I love London!  Everything is done so elegantly and with taste!  It’s simple yet not really simple but strikes me so much with it’s charm and beauty

LOVE!

Because I was admiring the gardens too much and taking photos, we got to the Orangery almost lunch time already

Love the teacups

We ordered one breakfast menu while we were waiting for 12 noon

Gretchen took us outside Banilad Towncenter and told us to try this Shawarma place which is very very popular in Cebu.  They sell around 500 orders a day!  Price range is from P 79.00 to P 139.00 – do the math 🙂  That’s a lot for a foodstall 🙂

We tried the US Angus Shawarma wrap – I wanted the rice version but they ran out

Sauces

I saw the pretty lady waiting for her order

Apparently she is a reader of Heart2Heart 🙂  Heidi Blanco 🙂  She saw me taking photos and she told me that she is a viewer.  I was so happy!!!  She told me that she loves this place and has been back many times already

They even have these already!  

YUMMY!!

We really made good use of our one day time in Cebu!!!  🙂

Gretchen pointed us towards this place in AS Fortuna which we gladly wanted to try 🙂 

It’s by a car wash

Acoording to Gretchen this is the best boneless pork belly

Caught them grilling 🙂

Wow look at the crispy skin!!

Puso hanging rice

Deadly but yum!!!!

Spicy version – for some reason it was not as crispy as the regular but it was still good but too spicy for me

YUM YUM YUM!!

You have to use your hands but they give you disposable plastic gloves in case you don’t want to use your hands directly haha 🙂  I love it 🙂 Only in the Philippines!

Our guard and driver joined us! Enjoying also 🙂

Many people order for delivery and take out which I think might be the best 

 Friendly staff 🙂

They had just opened their second branch
