Starting from their Newspaper style menu, you'll know that you're in for a great time in dining here.

Their desserts are also very much calling out to your sweet teeth, as they offer a la mode French toasts, mini cakes and some chocolate treats. Their staff is very welcoming and warm, they'll assist you in each way they can.

People have raved about Cibo, and I've avoided going because of numerous reasons. I've wanted to…read moreprioritize Filipino food while in the country, but decided to mix it up. I can see why Cibo has gained the accolades they have. They've been highly rated, and currently on the world's top 50 pizza artisinal chains. I can see why. Pizza was really good. For the price, they were really healthy portions as well. The crust was delicious, and I really could have kept eating just that on its own. It was really good, soft but had a nice bite. Not too light not too heavy. The pizza toppings were really good. Each of the three pizzas we ordered were delicious. We got the 5 cheese, spinach dip pizza, and the prosciutto crudo. All good and flavors complemented each other. I'm really curious what the others taste like and will be back again in the future. Luckily with locations throughout, it won't be too difficult to get to one. If they match the quality of this experience, I'll be one happy person. I've heard people say equally good things about the other items on the menu, so looks like there will be plenty of reasons to find myself heading to Cibo in the future.

And when one of them opened in the ground floor of my condo, how could I resist? Ah, how horrible to have high expectations only to have it crushed to bits by overwhelmingly mediocre pancake batter. That's right. For all the hype I've seen on social media, Slappy Cakes' pancakes do not live up to their name. I've tried to order one of their breakfasts as well, and the daing na bangus (smoked milkfish?) arrived to my table stone cold, the garlic rice undercooked-- or had the same consistency of refrigerated rice that wasn't refried properly. An overwhelmingly disappointing experience. Ah well, it just teaches us to be more discerning next time and not be blinded by picturesque photos on Instagram.

The Fuwori cup had 3 layers of a crunchy crust, middle sponge cake, and salted cheese topping. I liked that it wasn't overly sweet, and I enjoyed the different textures provided by the layers. I found it to be a nice little dessert for such a low cost. The only inconvenience was the crappy spoon it came with. The spoon partially broke when I dug into the Fuwori cup.

Considered as mini museum for its interiors showcasing historical photos and artifacts. Upon entering ...its like you just step back in time,from decors and furnitures its really a feel of the past... somewhat eirie to me. Theres so much good foods from the menu,they actually have silvanas for the dessert. Silvanas(Sylvanas) cookie version of sansrival,a frozen cookie consisting of layer of buttercream sandwiched by two cashew- mirengue wafers and coated with cookie crumps. Appez: We ordered Ukoy or squash fritters dipping sauce is vinigar with crushed garlic and red chilli,for me this one is just ordinary maybe because I usually cook this at home and mine is an all out ukoy really yummy though. Main entree; We got crispy pata deep fried pork leg this one was so good the skin very crispy while the meat is very tender and flavorfull,I tried the fried tawilis a local sardines endemic to the Philippines,we ordered kare-kare a beef stewed in special sauce with peanut butter and mixed asian veggies,very very good its side is sauteed shrimp paste. We actually ordered a lot so I can try most of the dishes but the one that really a bomb was the Paella Negra or also known as the arroz negra,its a dish originated from Valencia Spain main ingredient is the squid and its ink,it also has clams,shrimp and some other seafood.::mixed with cooked rice and baked, the final product is black in color when served. I was blown away by this one so much flavor into it,so much meat from the sea,the color is kinda scary but when you taste it olala the best. Huge serving in here. We got fresh buko juice and other freshly squeezed fruit juices. For our dessert Halo-halo or ice catchang and we tried their silvanas both were so delish that you wish to eat more in every bite. A different place to dine in,pateo seating is also available,take out as well,busy busy place because its located just opposite of a morethan century old catholic church named San Agustine. Good for group and kids friendly,wash room is not the cleanest place on earth but not dirty though. Excellent service well somewhat slow because it was a busy dinner time when we came by. I would like to revisit this place when i will be back to the Philippines. I also recommend this place specially for foreigners who love to try the kind of cuisine they serve and to feel the ambiance of an old restaurant that still operational. I cant review the pricing of foods in here because my brother paid for everything and I havent seen the bill... 5 star rating based in interior designs and quality of foods,by the way its not easy to find a parking paid or free... busy all the time and its location is in the heart of intramuros Manila.

Our diet only allowed me and him 400 calories and 500 calories respectively, and so Tim Ho Wan's pork buns were not an option. We decided to go to Amici because it's been tried and tested, and at least the food was cheap. It was dinnertime on a Friday night, but the place, to our great relief, wasn't full at all. We ordered my favorite Ai Tesori Del Mare and the rosemary chicken. I'm glad that they now serve the latter in smaller servings; before, one didn't have a choice but to order half of a chicken and bring home leftovers (that is, if one was alone). The servers here aren't as cheerful and attentive as the ones in the Don Bosco branch, and just that human touch, I realized, is just so important. Our food didn't taste as the good as the Don Bosco branch's versions, though I suspect that I'm probably just imagining things. It's pretty noisy in there, as most mall restaurants are, but I like that Amici exists in that mall because there are very few places in SM that serve good, moderately priced salads and other food that isn't junk.

Although it's located pretty conveniently…read morein the Atrium at Mega Mall, I'm not sure you'd know it were there if you weren't looking for it. The experience, while nice, wasn't anything to write home about. We came in at 8PM, and despite it being peak dinner time, a grand total of three tables were occupied. Also, although friendly, the staff was inattentive at times - which was inexcusable given the fact that the restaurant was empty and they were overstaffed. We ordered the three cheese and pepperoni pizza, which was great! We asked if we could get it on a flatbread base (which we'd heard rave reviews about), the staff said it wasn't possible. That was a bummer and seemed like something that they could easily accommodated. They have a Caramia (the dessert shop that specialises in ice cream cakes) located within the restaurant and a selection of their desserts on their menu. Pros: + Good food + Large, clean restaurant + Friendly service + Caramia within restaurant Cons: - Preoccupied servers - Very, very empty Bottom line: If you're looking for decent thin crust pizza while at Mega Mall, give Amici a try!

I went inside Megamall and my first instinct was to look for a restaurant that would probably have a landline. Of course, I may as well head to one that I haven't tried, right? Fireside had a very spacious layout, with neutral tones accented by red (the logo has red obviously) and has a homey but sophisticated vibe. The server took my order and assisted me to their landline so I can get in touch with my Dad and make arrangements for picking me up. The Grilled Chop House Salad was a generous serving of greens, slices of pork, crumbled cheese, broccoli and other veggies. For merienda, I'd say it was light enough that I was able to finish it but also heavy enough that it lasted me until dinner. Incredibly grateful for the courtesy and hospitality of the staff, plus glad to have peeked into the taste of Fireside.

My first trip to Fireside was during my birthday this year. They were still on soft opening back…read morethen but the interior of the relatively newly-opened restaurant in Megamall was enough to invite us in. Plus, finding out that Fireside is actually the sister restaurant of Kettle was what sealed the deal. The restaurant primarily had a chic urban setting. With unpainted cement partnered with couches and pillows, Fireside looked like an undone apartment. Yet it still had an upscale feel to it. The food that Fireside churned out was not at all bad either. I've gotten to try their Australian lamb chops and they were simply divine. Despite the fact that we were only two, we got to finish one whole plate of it. Hahaha. It was very savoury, definitely lived up to the level of deliciousness Kettle was known for. Alongside that, we tried out their infamous chicken tenders with cornbread biscuits. Now this was a home run! The buttermilk chicken fingers were reminiscent of Kettle's Buttermilk Chicken but in a form that was easier and less messy to eat. And their cornbread biscuits? They just basically rocked my world! They come in ball-like forms so it's easier to share. Some of my other recos would be their Mac n' Cheese, Ceasar Salad with Bacon, and Potato Chips with Sour Cream dressing. Haaaaay, just thinking about it makes my mouth water. ALSO! If you're a baconatic like me, order Fireside's Bacon (they come in as a side order). It's basically fried bacon steak. Yup, they're not strips. 'Nuff said, right? I have yet to go back to Fireside to check out their other dishes but for now it gets 5 stars from me. If you haven't visited Fireside, please do go. I'm sure you will not regret it!
