Happy Cream Puff

Since the first time I tasted cream puffs from Tacloban, I had this thinking that all of them tastes the same, regardless where they come from. As a foodie, it takes a lot of taste-testing before I can finally get to a conclusion that this is better than that.  And so the war of cream puffs begin. From where I'm from, it's seldom that I find these yummy little puffs. I have to travel somewhere in Makati to find decent ones, all different from the sweet ones I got as pasalubong from a former colleague. On a visit to Paseo Center, it was great to find a stall that has it. I just found its name weird : HAPPY CREAM PUFF. Oh well, maybe there's something in it that makes it a happy food.  For as cheap as P20 each, you'll get to try it yourself. Not too sweet as other brands, and yes, creamy. Almond Cream Puff, php20 :)

Tia Maria's

Tia Maria's has always been known for its Mexican-themed dishes, and because we wanted something new, we checked it out for ourselves. We were about to order when one of the crew went up to us and offered the Tia Maria's Mexicard. It's like a privilege card, giving a certain percentage of discount and a platter of Tia's Sampler Jr. We saw how bountiful the serving was, so we immediately agreed to get one. Here's a list of what we had : Soup :) + Twining's hot tea Half Slab Baby Back Ribs w/ buttered corn kernels and nachos and, our complimentary Tia's Sampler Jr. Yummmm! Never knew it would be a great Mexican experience at Tia Maria's. I'd definitely wanna go back and try out others on their menu. ;) temporary Mexicard Click here for branches. Like them on Facebook .
