Chicken Spinach Riviera, PNKY Travel Cafe

Chicken Spinach Riviera - chicken strips spinach, mushroom and tofu
in white sauce served with rice and vegetables
Around Php 200 - Php 250 (5.00 to 6.00 USD)

It's always more palatable to eat food with a presentation, right?

At PNKY Travel Cafe in Baguio, it's always a delight to see your food once it is served on the table. And it's not only the presentation that will make its food really remarkable, it's really the taste too.

Smoked Bangus with Eggplant Ensalada, Penpen's Filipino Kitchen

Smoked Bangus with Eggplant Ensalada
Php 170.00 (4 USD)

In all fairness to this very simple combination, the bangus (milkfish) is really tasty and the ensalada is good. Not bad for Php 170.00 (around 4 USD)

The original Penpen's was located at 105-C Scout Castor near corner Tomas Morato, Quezon City where I got to taste for the first time, the crispy liempo in the early 2000s.

Now it is currently located at 15-A Gen. Romulo Ave., Cubao Expo, Araneta Center, Quezon City

Metro Manila, Philippines.

Lumpiang Excited, Gayuma ni Maria

Lumpiang Excited is Gayuma ni Maria's version of Lumpiang Ubod, with a twist -- the pink molo wrap, the crunchy ubod, and the sweet-milky sauce.

A yummy snack for Php 90.00 (2 USD).

Lumpiang Excited. I wonder why they call it that...

"Gayuma" is a Filipino term for "love potion" so "Gayuma ni Maria" means Maria's Love Potion. Most of the items in their menu are named naughtily. Like "Beats Sex Anyday", their popular chocolate cake,

Strawberry Smoothie, PNKY Travel Cafe

Of course we have to try the Strawberry Smoothie of PNKY Travel Cafe. Why? Because PNKY promises the best ingredients for your food trip, and hey, we are in Baguio! Where else would you want to try out food made of strawberry?

Aside from the yummy and fresh food that they offer, PNKY's ambiance has an artsy-traveler feel to it. I was here on my own the last time I was in Baguio, this was my last stop to relax, dine and feel the breeze before heading back to Manila.

PNKY Travel Cafe is located at 18 Leonard Wood Road, Baguio City, Benguet.

Nut Crusted Fish Fingers, Boho Sarapsody Bistro

A mixture of crunchy and nutty breading and soft fish fingers rolled into one, with yummy dressing and potato wedges on the side. Who wouldn't want to try this out? Very affordable at Php 200, good for 2-3 persons!

Drink it with Boho Sarapsody Bistro's ice cold beer for the perfect chill!

Boho Sarapsody Bistro is located at 272 Ermin Garcia, near corner Aurora Blvd., Quezon City.

Frozen Milk Tea, Cafe Xocolat

I remember when my mom makes Buko Salad, she uses 10 sacks of sugar and 20 trucks of condensed milk, then she freezes the salad in different containers and out comes the yummiest buko salad in the world -- not too sweet and ice cold.

It's because frozen food tends to lose some of its properties. If it's supposed to be sweet, put more than just the right amount of honey, or caramel, or sugar, or whatever you use to sweeten it before you freeze it.

Same goes with this Frozen Milk Tea. It tastes a lot less than the usual milk tea, because its frozen. So... you get the point. I hope they've improved their frozen milk tea because I am willing to try again :)

Oyster Mushroom, Pizza Hut

Seasonal snack at Pizza Hut. I don't know why, though.

Deep fried oyster mushroom served with three types of dips - catsup, mustard and barbeque sauce. The breading is crispy while the mushroom is chewy.

I tried this at Pizza Hut Trinoma. I forgot the price though.
