while back, I was invited to a despedida/birthday dinner of one of my old colleagues. I would’ve highlighted and underlined the word “old” but I still feel grateful for this meal. I can’t believe that having worked 3 years in the area, I’ve never stepped foot inside Il Ponticello before. Actually, I can believe it. That place is expensive! At ... Read More »
e here at Food Porn Junkies are procrastinators! And I try to mean that in the most cool/care-free way. I’ve reached a personal low, though. I’ve actually tried out Banana Leaf early in the year. By the time I’m posting this, I’ve already gone back a 2nd time, which is why you guys (if there are actually any readers out ... Read More »
’ve heard about Papa John’s Pizza for quite some time now. Even before they set up shop here. They’re the ones that’s been getting air-time with their concession stand in the Miami Heat arena. They’ve had that cheesy tag line “Better ingredients. Better pizza” line for the longest time now. Get it, cheesy jeje? OK, that was bad. Moving on… ... Read More »
usually get stuck when deciding where to go. ”Anywhere” seems to be the standard reply. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. I found a pretty good way of going about this and it’s turning on the Travel Channel! In my case, it was the Mexico episode of No Reservations and it was as good a time as any ... Read More »
imsum is one of the greatest things in this world. Seriously. It’s Chinese tapas, or maybe tapas should be called the Spanish dimsum. Small bites you can have anytime of the day. And even if they are steamed, they don’t suck. Dimsum is traditionally a light, tea-time meal. But with my cousins coming from all over, we decided for a ... Read More »
I get excited whenever there’s a new burger joint in town. So there are very few things better than ending my illegal DVD window shopping day with burgers. Not that I buy pirated DVD’s. Stackers Burger Cafe is supposedly an Australian-based joint. I’m not exactly sure if it’s a local franchise or something, but the burgers are said to be ... Read More »
t must be at least 5 years since my first (and only) visit to Angel’s Kitchen. Quite ironic that it’s the places that are fairly near that you don’t get to. I think I did try to grab a meal here, but the place was packed and parking was a bitch. That’s gotta be a great sign, right? I was ... Read More »
very year, my high school buddies and I meet up at least once a year. It’s usually a Christmas / year-ender get-together and we almost always opt for some sort of a buffet meal. I wanted something different this year and Isabelo Garden was a place that I’ve been hearing constantly. My cousin was telling me it was the best ... Read More »
consider myself a pizza lover. By no means am I an expert – no, I leave that to the Italians and the people at Pizza Hut (jeje) – but I know what I like. Lots of cheese, freshly baked dough, quality ingredients – this is what I look for in a pizza. Now I’m relatively easy to please. If the ... Read More »
would’ve loved to have my best meal in Greece during my last day there. Instead, this meal was actually during my first night there and it’s something so basic and happens to be one of my favorite things in this world: kebabs! There are few things in this world that I love more than kebabs. So when kebabs are done ... Read More »
