KING CHEF: FOOD FOR KINGS

Looking for an authentic cantonese cuisine? Must try King Chef Dimsum Kitchen at SM NORTH Edsa, ground floor at the Block, Quezon City. It is a long line but it is worth waiting. I got my order slip while waiting, and "the not available" in the menu is already shaded until I finalized my order for 2. I have waited the 2pm special promo for dimsum for 30% less. Everything is served hot, tasty and delicious. I ordered half of King Style fried chicken, Beef wanton noodles, Vinegared Tofu with Lechon bits, pork and shrimp siomai, my favorite siopao asado, rice and my unlimited service tea. When I ordered, King Chef is serving to all the customer "kings" meaning King Chef serves generously especially the wanton noodles for sharing with much siomai, egg noodles and beef. Really, half chicken feels like whole chicken is served. Thank you, King Chef.. will definitely see you again. Arrividerci! #CelebrateWithTrip #tripblazers#foodie #dimsum

Visit the capital of the Philippines.MANILA

THE ALLEY: UNLIMITED JOY

The Alley by Vikings, located at the 2nd floor of Ayala Malls, Cloverleaf, A. Bonifacio, Quezon City. It is a buffet restaurant that offers unlimited joy for every customer craving for Chinese, Japanese, American, amd Filipino cuisine. I experienced unlimited satisfaction as I enjoyed every recipes and fresh ingredients. Upon entry, the receptionist puts a strap with a paper bracelet on my hand which grants me the power to eat all I want on the buffet. It is a little bit pricey but the experience of dining for 3 hours is worth the value of my money at 988 php for adult on a weekday lunch from 11am to 2pm. For unlimited joy of 988php, it is NOTHING!#celebratewithtrip#tripblazers#mytripvlog#foodie#buffetdeals

MALL GOERS: MASS GOERS!

Spending Sunday at the mall is not enough without spending the Sunday Mass services. SM North Edsa provides a space for Catholic devotees a space for the Chapel dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary. I attended the mass at the mall with the other mall goers. Very noticeable is the dome-shaped structure, stations of the cross sketched by the National Artist Ang Kiukok; the sculptures of the crucifix at the altar, the Lady of the Rosary and St. Joseph by Master Sculptor by Eduardo Castrillo. Enjoying the day at SM Malls, viewing the works of the master artists, and celebrating the Mass make Sunday best complete. Mall goers can also be mass goers on this Sunday. Amen. #celebratewithtrip #tripblazers#mytripvlog#church

MANGAN: JUST TRY IT!

I really just try it! I am quite curious with the name of this restaurant MANGAN. And I just discovered that it is an overused kapampangan word which means "to eat". Then, I try and eat. I ordered Okoy for 128php, fried chicken (half) 362 php, pinakbet with lechong kawali for 243php, platter of tinapa rice for 252php, water for drinks and my dessert, tibok-tibok with latik for 128php. I spent 1,113 php good for three persons. It is value for money with this best Kapampangan filipino cuisine. The vegetables are served with so much fressness; chicken is deliciously and crispy fried; fried rice with smoked fish flakes makes the taste more excellent. At SM North Edsa, Quezon City, 2nd floor of the ANNEX, Mangan Restaurant, among the many fine dining restaurants at the mall, should not be missed to TRY! I super love it. #mytripvlog #celebratewithtrip#tripblazers#foodie #kapampangan food

The check-in process was quick, Dana was very helpful. The rooms are always clean and elegant. It was my mom's birthday celebration and they set up a cake and balloons for us, for which I was very thankful. The staff is all smiling and very accommodating. You can feel the genuine smile on their faces. The pool is huge, the gym will meet your needs. Shame we can't use the kid's club. Haha.

Price per Person - PHP599.00 only per head but with different unlimited buffet settings Rating - 1000/10 Comment - Me and my boyfriend reunited after a while and celebrated our first anniversary at this place with his family and extended family. We absolutely loved the place although the parking is a bit tight and only a few spots because it is on the main road of Diliman. However, they are always ready to serve and have really caring staff. I mean the side dishes, meats and everythinf are already prepared and we were close to the Kitchen so it was extremely fast to ask for refills and additional orders. It is already very cheap for only 599 but with so many side dishes, meat options and seafoods. We ordered the set with seafood, sushi, along with the standard meat, sidedishes and steak (Yes!). And they are very popular. They never run out of people inside. It was almost always full in the house.

Las Casas in Quezon City

A province vibes in the city with old spanish era theme and they really have Filipino-Spanish dishes, though a little bit expensive but all worth. (both in Bagac and Quezon City). It is much like a slice of their sought after heritage resort in Bagac Bataan.

UP and Proud. Iskolar ng Bayan! We continue the legacy. #university #gooutside #up #iskolar

A Top University in the Philippines!🇵🇭

#timetotravel This is the University of the Philippines where all the geniuses go. So many politicians and high ranking officials graduated from this university. It is government funded so the it is the publics money that send these students to school and all they have to do is to maintain their grade. It is not very easy to get in to this university as they have a grade reguirement plus one must pass their entrance exams. I think all the students just have to pay for thier personal books. This a great area to run , stroll and have picnics too as it is open for public. Very lush and serene place to relax and chill. Address: Roxas Ave, Diliman, Quezon City #trip #tripblazers #mytripvlog #philippines #university

Palm Sunday, April 3, 2023

For 2023, that Palm Sunday date is April 2, 2023. Palm Sunday is an important day in the Christian calendar, and a key part of the Easter story. This is in St. Joseph the Worker Parish Balintawak, Quezon City. Palm Sunday is a commemoration of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, coming in peace and riding on a donkey. Jesus' entry into Jerusalem coincided with the Jewish festival of Passover. He was met by crowds of followers and supporters who lined the road into the city and waved branches cut from palm trees. They laid palm fronds on the road and even laid down cloaks for Jesus to ride over. This entry into Jerusalem fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies promising that God's Messiah would enter the holy city and go to the temple.
