Good Grains, Good Deal

By Betty ⋅ January 16, 2008 ⋅ 6 comments

Resolving to eat healthy in 2008? Betty, a recent bread convert, drops by the Good Grains Bakeshop in BF Homes for their wholesome whole wheat loaves, less healthy choco chip muffins, and cheap ciabatta and foccacia. Perhaps even the carb-phobic will reconsider this staple now.

Go Nuts Cupcakes! Yum!

By Betty ⋅ September 7, 2007 ⋅ 15 comments

My sister and I have a new addiction: Go Nuts Cupcakes. The other night I was over at their house for dinner and she managed to convince me to make a quick run to Go Nuts in Westgate for a box of six. Nothing to it, really, especially since parking is such a joy in […]

Checking out Paseo de Sta. Rosa - Kokomo and Babycakes

By Betty ⋅ August 8, 2007 ⋅ 13 comments

Here�s a little experiment: instead of my usual verbose post, I�m trying to be short and snappy (with the small exception of this intro, of course). I expect this to read like a bunch of notes scribbled onto a paper napkin, but I figure it may also be one of the best ways to get […]

I already expected the usual indignant comments about misplaced hysteria for something as simple as doughnuts. Recall, if you will, that when Go Nuts opened their doors around four years ago, they […]

Diabetic Duo! Krispy Kreme and Cupcakes by Sonja

By Betty ⋅ June 9, 2007 ⋅ 15 comments

I have this running debate with myself as to whether Fort Boni (more properly, Bonifacio Global City) is in the South or not. For the most part, I feel that it is: after all, Taguig is south of Makati (one easy way to split Metro Manila is to go north or south of Makati, which […]

Pandesal is the New Lechon Manok

By Betty ⋅ May 1, 2007 ⋅ 15 comments

Remember them? Back in the late 80’s every street corner had its own lechon manok stand. Heck, there was a whole village of lechon manok restaurants along Coastal Road. Then that trend gave way to pearl shakes, then mineral water stations. In the end, only the strongest brands remain: witness Toto’s Lechon Manok and Zagu […]
