Segara Village, Subic Bay

Many always ask me for accomodations in Subic…

Thanks to my cousin, Crickette, for telling us about this new place. It is in the tip of the Boardwalk so I would say a bit secluded from the other parts of Subic. It was peaceful and of course beautiful! They have 10 villas in the village. I can only recommend a few places in Subic and this is definitely one of them

EXECUTIVE VILLAS – Loft style

JUNIOR VILLA

Lemon Cafe

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | 3 Comments

We had some time to meet up for lunch with our good friend Gil and soon to be bride Christine, who were in Boracay over the weekend. It was so nice to see them. We had lunch in Lemon Cafe which was also in the recommended list of Jigger and May. We had a light lunch since we knew we had another big event that evening.

Footsie’s Foot Spa

By Heart2Heart | Spas, Travel | No Comments

With all that partying and photo taking, the following day we went to D’Mall and as soon as we saw the word “SPA”, we just entered and had our foot spas and relaxed……. I was really tired from standing and going all around the place taking photos…this was the perfect remedy 🙂

Aria Cucina Italiana

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | One Comment

Included in the wedding invitation of Jigger and May were a list of recommended restaurants…How I wish we could have tried all…

As soon as we arrived and settled down in the hotel which was around 1:00 pm, we wanted to have a light meal as we were expecting much for dinner. We ended up going to number one on the list and a familiar and popular place, ARIA

One pizza to share for two was enough for us

Discovery Shores Boracay

By Heart2Heart | Travel | 4 Comments

Jigger and May spoiled us! Now we always want to stay in Discovery Shores when in Boracay! 🙂 What a beautiful place… The staff in the hotel are all very cheerful and friendly and every single one of them never fails to greet you good morning, good afternoon or good evening when they pass you. And I like their pins which say ” Service that’s ALL HEART.”

There is even a shuttle to take you wherever you want to go.

Heart2Heart is so proud to mention that it was designed by only the best, Architect Willie Coscolluela together with his son who is our good friend, Gary Coscolluela. We are looking forward already to our next stay in February…..

As soon as we arrive in the airport, the spoiling starts already! We have the best boat in the island – it is airconditioned and they serve you bottled water… going back to the airport on the way home- they serve sandwiches and juice

When we arrive in the hotel, they give you cold towel and a welcome drink….then we are greeted by JR who escorts us to our room

Wish stone

Our room was a Junior Suite , this is the lowest category among the rooms and we were so happy. But imagine how the other rooms look like. They have one bedroom, two bedroom, with jacuzzi etc etc

Complimentary Foot spa as soon as you arrive in your room

Our view from the desk and we had a balcony facing the waterfall

Mandala Spa is already at Discovery Shores

I could not resist but take night shots as well of the place

Every night we have a different Filipino delicacy ( instead of the usual chocolates )

The room comes with breakfast buffet at Sands

Dining in Baguio

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | 4 Comments

My friend, Melissa, asked me for the Top 5 restaurants in Baguio…. That is a tough one to answer! Only because when we are in Baguio, we always eat at home. Mom prepares the best meals at home and we do not have to go anywhere else. We eat outdoors all the time to take advantage of the cool weather which we cannot do in Manila. We have Misono/Teppanyaki, Fondue, Barbeque, and Mongolian Barbeque. Mom brings up all her equipments and ingredients together with her whole household to make sure we are fully equipped. WHAT A MOM! We are so lucky we have her to feed us! 🙂

Last month we went to Baguio for three days and so we were able to have fondue and misono/teppanyaki

Raclette as appetizer! YUMMY!!!

Mom made sure I took a photo of her battery operated peppermill which she is so proud of 🙂

Watercress salad with truffle oil – Mom always makes sure she has watercress in Baguio which you can get in abundance at the market

Teppanyaki/Misono

Mom prepares Vitalite instead of regular butter

Of course truffle oil and truffle salt… and now Mom is introducing Grape Seed oil to us

And freshly ground sea salt!

FONDUE

Appetizer: Cheese fondue

We all like to eat the crunchy part after – “tutong” 🙂 YUMMY!

Mom has her own fondue sauces which are different from mine and she claims hers is better 🙂

For fondue, we have broth and oil – for the health conscious ones, they use broth. For the oil, Mom uses olive oil

Dessert: Chocolate fondue

Xtremely Espresso

By Heart2Heart | Foodie, Travel | No Comments

Definitely another restaurant to go to when in Subic. Thanks to Tita Nena and Katrina for recommending the place. We used to pass by this place on the way to the church but never go to eat here and to think it has been there for five years already. It’s American style with big portions so it’s good for big groups and sharing. We ordered everything recommended by Tita Nena
