Pipino Vegetarian Restaurant Jupiter Makati Branch

I’ve  been wanting to try this restaurant ever since I learned about this from friends and Patty Laurel but Quezon City is too far! Haha! Alam mo naman tamad akong bumyahe. Since we’re chained to our house, going out has been a challenge lately. Hihi.

Kidding aside, I’m glad that this Filipino vegetarian restaurant is now on my side of the metro. A branch has recently opened up in Jupiter St. Makati. Yes! I have no more reason not to go because it’s near. I used to live nearer this new Pipino resto and I could imagine it would have been more awesome. Continue reading Eat your veggies

Fearless Foodie’s Field Guide to Kapitolyo’s Best Restaurants updated!

I didn’t expect more foodies would be drawn to the infographic on restaurants in Kapitolyo. Like me, a lot of people are now excited for the launch of this app. How I wish I could view the app even if it’s in beta. I would love to share my thoughts on the iPhone app being an Apple fan girl. Hihi.

Looloo has updated the foodie guide as requested:

Restaurants in Kapitolyo

I don’t claim to be a foodie. I love to eat. I just cannot do a lot of eating right now because we’re still on this Healthy Living. My husband and I, we still eat out occasionally. I don’t always keep track of where we go and what we eat but I try to take photos first.

Our current favorite local food destination right now is Kapitolyo in Pasig. I thank my cousin Christian and his wife Claire for their suggestions. They live in Kapitolyo so they know and have tried almost all restaurants there.

I am amazed at how Kapitolyo turned out to be a foodie’s favorite destination. Our church is located nearby so I am familiar with the area. Before, there was only the Three Sisters. We tried Cafe Juanita already and when we started having our Care Group in the area, we were introduced to some of the best kept secrets of the neighborhood. So we’ve been missing a lot!

I’ve only been to a few places but we’re planning to try all restaurants in the Kapitolyo area before the year ends. Okay, that seems impossible but we work from home so I guess we could try at least two food places each week starting this Saturday. Yes? Please!

And so I got so giddy and excited when my friend Sharm shared this:
