The Blogapalooza 2014 Experience

          I attended the biggest Business to Blogger Networking Event Last October 11, 2014 and I had so much fun. Meeting a lot a lot of people and getting to know their services through one on one interaction, demo, games and raffles is an awesome way to connect and get connected.I actually got to know different business I would like to try out soon check out my adventure below.
        This would be my very first Blogapalooza Event and definitely not my last and I'll make sure to take a leave to enjoy the whole day event, I had to leave early because I still have work that evening, bummer. Nonetheless, I had so much fun and learned a lot from the event.

The Tamayaki Experience


I finally got to try this Takoyaki joint at SM North, I've always wondered why its always empty despite the really kawaii interiors, and I got my answer. 

Its soooooooooooooo cold inside XD hehehe...

Skip the rice meals If i were you and stick with the milk teas and Takoyaki. The Takoyaki were a little steep, price ranges from Php 95 - Php 115, consist of 4 Takoyaki balls.

The Service was slow, considering that there were only 2 customers (Me and my sister) and  there were a lot of crew at that time.

And I just have to mention this... Everytime I eat a Takoyaki I remember the Takoyaki Manto Man, a Japanese Anime/Cartoon back in the 90's.

"♪♫Tako tako tako tako tako tako tako takoyaki manto man! ♪♫"

 Haha I'm sorry I'm so weird for singing that :)

Takoyaki Menu



Le Menu

Beef Gyudod at Php 165.00


Japanese Braised Pork at Php 155.00
 The Rice Meals were also a little steep considering the taste it was not at all impressive. 
Scale of 1-5 points 5 points being the highest, I give it a 1  for taste and Price.
These were served first and It was already cold when it got to our table.


Kawaii Takoyaki Boxes





Season Octopus and Kani and Shrimp Takoyaki and Tamayaki Milk Tea With Pearls




Takoyaki Balls burried in sauces, bonito flakes and nori



Its interesting to have satay flavor on your takoyaki, Its weird...and I like that they didn't skimp on the "octopus" or squid hihihi :)

Overall it was OK. I like the interiors, the service is not all good, again considering there we just 2 people it took forever to get the orders I understand that they have to cook the Takoyaki balls, but the rice meals? I think they just toss it in the microwave to heat it, but still it took forever to get em' plus it came to us cold already. The Milk Tea was OK too. I hope they improve on their service its such a nice place to hang out and get your milk tea fix.


If I'm ever gonna crave for Milk Tea I'd go someplace else, and for Takoyaki I'd still go to Samurai Takoyaki hihi... or the kind the you get from Mercato or Food Bazaar, way cheaper plus taste good too! :)

Happy Pao ^_^

I've been obsessing with the Happy Pao for a few weeks now.
A few weeks back my sister sent me a Viber Pic of the Happy Pao and I instanly fell inlove. She found a pic of it via Instagram. I tried to research about it but could not find which branch has it. I went to the extent of calling Chowking's Delivery Line to order but they didn't have it available yet for delivery as not all branch has it yet, checked for locations that has the Happy Pao but the lady who answered referred me to their company CS, unfornately after waiting for 10 minutes on hold nobody had any idea which branch has it. I've been checking Chowking's FB and I was wondering why there was no commercial for these cute little siopaos.

Then  3 days ago they finally released it! woot woot!! :) Got Mine Yesterday... and was sooooooooooooo happy ^_^


Finally My Happy Pao! ^_^


Piggy Pao


Asado Siopao

    I had a hard time breaking these kawaii babies as they were sooooooooooooo cute ^_^.
    The Asado Pao was really cute but the siopao had a strong ginger after taste.. I dunno why. The Asado
      Sauce that came with it actually made up for it, so it was still ok :)

Birthday Celebration at Niner Ichi Nana

Celebrated my Birthday at Niner Ichi Nana last July :)
1) Because I wanted Erwan Heussaff for my birthday present
2) Because I've always wanted to go to this place since they opened
3) I wanted to check out their cool mugs specially the Skully Mug
4) I heard they have really cool drinks :)
5) Erwan Heussaff
6) Erwan Heussaff
and 7) Erwan Heussaff ^___^

Its a little place, really nice for very intimate gatherings.
The staff and the bar tenders were really friendly and accommodating.

When you step inside this place get ready to get Bespoked.
Niner Ichi Nana is a place of expression

My Kind of Mug <3
Waiting to #GetBespoked

The Bar

Good Times with Good Friends

Starting the night with Mojito

Super Love This Idea
Each drink are handcrafted according to your preference and the Bar Tender's. Its a work of art in a glass. 
Definitely not your ordinary bar and drinks.
They have really nice and unique drink garnishes too! 

Refreshing with the right amount of kick! :)
The perfect #GetBespoke #CraftCocktail --- Chocolatey with a kick!
Duck Fat Fries - definitely a must try! :)
 

Santol, Popcorn and Bacon infused drinks? Only here at Niner Ichi Nana

We tried several Bespoked cocktails by Head bartender Ed and Oreo.
Superb! :)

Would definitely love to come back to this wonderful place :) 
And even without Erwan Heussaff that night I had a very fun filled night. Thanks to the bartenders and my friends. :) Happy Birthday indeed. Dear Erwan.. Next year. :P

Birthday Dinner at Tamarind


Met my friends at SM Aura and before heading to Niner Ichi Nana to celebrate my birthday, decided to get Dinner there, but since there were a lot of nice restaurants it was really hard to pick. It was a battle between Magnum Cafe and Tamarind but since my friend wanted to get rice we decided we'd try Tamarind since we have not tried it before.


I tried to research about Tamarind but nothing much was found except that its an upscale version of Jatujak.

Le Menu





Hi! ^_^

Shredded Papaya Salad

Beef Curry
 The Beef was tender and yummeh! :)
Chicken Pad Thai


Tom Yum Goong
 I looooooove the Tom Yum and it was Spicy and Sour, A must try! :)
Hey There Shrimpeee!!! In my bowl you go! Omnomnom <3

With Friends <3
The place had a relaxed atmosphere, the staff we're friendly nice and very accommodating. The food were delish, and when we got the bill, We were surprised as it was not that bad :)

My friends had the grandest time asking the staff to sing me a birthday song and they gamely did. :) Thank You ^_^


Off to Niner Ichi Nana we go... ^_^
