(Chicago) – Do I need to describe how bad the economy is now? It’s all over the news and it’s scaring the s**t out of everyone especially if you have a mortgage to pay. I have a few friends who got laid off from work, some friends’ vacation days got slashed and my salary increase [...]
(Singapore) – Once in Manila, now in Singapore! Seems like it has been stalking me as I have never eaten in the Manila resto. Somehow it managed to find me here in Singapore! I have not tried Chili’s in Manila before – not for any reason but because all along I thought it only serves [...]

(Singapore) – Teriyakidon, Katsudon, Oyakudon, California Maki, Sushi – these delectable delights come into mind when you crave for Japanese cuisine. Never have we thought that there’s such a thing as a Japanese Casual Pasta & Café Restaurant where they serve superb thinly-thin crust pizza filled with cheese and the works!
