"I Crave, I Love."

I visited their shop at SM Cebu last week to get something for my birthday dinner with my family. This is their menu:

Since it's already the Yuletide season, they also offer their holiday sweets.

You need to go to their counter to place your order. After ordering, they will ask for your name then they will give you the receipt with your name and your number. They estimated 20 minutes for them to finish my order. While waiting, I took some pictures of their interior.

Team BonChon. FTW! :)

Chicken Chops.

Chicken Wings.

Choco Caramel S'mores Crispy Crepe.

The Original Waffle Sandwich

How to get famous? Then eat what's famous. So, we must admit that we are a little delayed with the so-called latest craze in town. They already have a lot of branches here in Cebu (e.g. SM City Cebu, SM Consolacion, Gaisano Malls). However, I didn't bother to buy one (craving is not that strong-.-). I just pass by and savour the very sweet smell of these waffles. I read other posts about the Belgian Waffles then I was surprised that others will even wait for an hour just to have a bite of these waffwiches. I also heard good comments from my friends so I decided to finally grab a bite. Good thing that they already have a branch in I.T. Park which is located near the entrance of Skyrise 3. Another good thing was that there weren't many customers so we didn't have to wait for a long time.

I really wonder how the guards of Skyrise 3 can endure the smell of these waffles without giving in. -_- Let's take a look at their choices.

Simply Perfect or Perfect Combination??

After a few minutes, we already decided our flavors. We chose: Plain, Blueberry and Chocolate Peanut Butter. You should pay as you order then you will be given a receipt/claim slip indicating your number then just wait for your number to be called. While waiting for our waffwiches:

Thanks to our lovely photographer , Lindsey, but no thanks. You got a solo shot anyway! XD

My wafflemates. Bonet, me, Aubrie. It's our time to shine. ^^

We just waited for more or less 10 minutes and tadaa, it's time to chow down our waffwiches.

Yummy!

The verdict. Well, that was good for a quite affordable price. Based on the aroma of the waffles, I expected to have a very sweet one but it tricked us. It's not really that sweet which is good because it makes you want to eat more (we didn't, though). Since I'm an avid fan of crunchy/crispy foods, this one really satisfied me. It has a little crisp on the outside but soft on the inside. Just be sure to eat it at once by the time you receive it. I just love it. My friend let me try the blueberry flavor and it's good. Mine is the chocolate peanut butter and it's perfect for me. It also has small chunks of peanuts in it. That's what you call a Perfect Combination. Cravings, satisfied! We'll come back for more...

P.S.: At this time of posting, FBW will donate PHP 1.00 to the Yolanda victims for every sold waffwich. Remember, little things can go a long way. And that's sweet... ^^ awww.

#ThrowbackThursday it is. This is one of my firsts originally posted in http://definitelyfilipino.com/blog/2012/06/02/the-trouble-of-girls/. Enjoy!^^

Who says falling in love is easy? It never was, it never is and it will never be. Love is like a business, you need to have the courage and the investment, and you should be a risk taker. The utmost important is being a risk taker. Once you take the risk, that is the time that you will know whether you flunk or you succeed. Taking the risk as most people say means that you need to tell the person that you love him/her. But I'll just ask you, what if you are the girl? Here comes the complicated life of a Filipina.

Most of our elders might say that girls should have delicadeza. When a girl falls in love, she should keep her feelings to herself, and wait for the boy to confess his love. But, hello? We are now in the 21st century, is this still a concern? Does she really have to wait? What if the guy doesn't know her existence? Will she just make herself contented, and satisfied with a stolen glance or a stare? That will just continuously hurt her or maybe frustrate her. I guess we have already seen in movies that at times, girls are the one that make the first move. But, hello again? That's a film. This is reality. When seen in movies, it looked so quite easy but in real life, I bet that it is a difficult thing to do. It is also an unusual sight to see a girl confessing her feelings to a man.

We do not own the minds of all the people. We can't stop them from their judgments. We can't force them to outgrow the culture that they knew from their parents, their grandparents and great grandparents. Another thing, it really takes courage for a girl to do this kind of thing, and she should be ready for the consequences. How about when she gets dumped? It will affect her pride as well as her dignity. So what now? Should we stick to the status quo? Should we really take a major effort in taking care of how we really feel, and keep it as invisible as it can be? Well, the answer is all up to you. If you have the courage, go on. It's your life and I don't think the comments of other people will still be an issue. They are not involved, anyway. On the contrary, if you're a girl with a great hold of your culture and tradition, just don't force yourself, just let it be, maybe it will also be a help to save your heart from useless heartaches and heartbreaks. Whatever your decision is, I know that it will just serve you right. Each of us is unique so don't bother about what other people say, be it your parents, friends, or colleagues. After all, girls are always unpredictable. 

GO GIRLS!!! 

Till next post, lovies. Ciao!

"Konnichiwa!"

Tired of Filipino cuisine? Leggo Japan! Yeah, well not literally, but let's experience a bit of their culture by having a taste of their appetizing dishes. Japanese foods are becoming popular these days as more and more of their locals visit our country for travel, business, English studies, and so on. Many Japanese restaurants are becoming more widespread in our country not just for the traveler's availability but for us, Filipinos, as well. As foodies as we are, we are not afraid to try something new and let our tongues experiment and relish the taste of different foods.

One of the most popular Japanese restaurants here in Cebu is the Chibori Shabu-Shabu & Sushi Bar. According to my Japanese friends, Chibori is one of the best restaurants which offers an authentic Japanese taste. The dishes are quite expensive but the taste is worth the price and the Japanese feeling is there, from the place to the staff's welcoming greeting! IRASSHAIMASE!
