Starbucks Coffee (The Last Sticker for the Planner)

Christmas is coming so fast! Christmas lights and music are everywhere. Everybody seems so happy and excited for the most awaited season of the year.

As a way to celebrate the happiest season, Starbucks has always this special way to make their customers feel special. Yearly, Starbucks Coffee offers limited planner for the next year which can only be in your hands by collecting stickers in exchange of every handcrafted beverage that you order. 

I am a no coffee fan. What I just love about Starbucks is their Chocolate Chip Cream Frappuccino which is a NO COFFEE drink. Also, I love how I can be so calm and quiet each time I hang out in the coffee house. Since this place has been close to my heart for the past years, collecting stickers for the planner has also been part of me hanging out there. Luckily, I recently got my partner in this thing.

When we were down to the last sticker, he craved for Zagu (his all-time favorite) and so we had this:

Starbucks vs. Zagu

It was last year when he became part of my sticker collection. I got mine with just couple of days and since our stickers were more than the needed for the planner, we decided to continue and get another one for him. 

Last year's design's for more environment-friendly :)

Latest design is already here! Let's take a look:

Love the design and colors? Go collect your stickers and be the first to have this. Plan the coming year with this Starbucks Planner 2013. It's magnetic, by the way. 

And hey, these Christmas favorites are also available in all Starbucks stores nationwide now.

Yellow Cab Pizza Co. - Eastwood

Who in the world doesn't love pizza? We must admit, we are both pizza lovers (pizza+lovers.hihi!) and yes, we also love Yellow Cab Pizza (and Shakey's and Greenwich and Fracasso also). Eastwood, being one of our favorite places to hang out, is the witness to our pizza craving that night. We then went inside this perfect place to spend the night.

We then ordered Manhattan Meatlovers. Okay, this time, I don't mean the word "lovers." haha! We just love the combination of ham, pepperoni, italian sausage, beef, salami and bacon.

Would you not love this? Every bite just melts your heart and want you to crave more, right? If not with the "diet" thing (which is only in our minds), we could have ordered more :)

Manhattan Meatlovers for lovers. Aren't we redundant? Oops, sorry for this cheesy post. hihi. But seriously, we just love Yellow Cab's pizza. 

For not-so-pizza fan, they also serve chicken, pasta, and more :)

Oggo and Jullz Resto Grill

Weddings! I just love weddings! We love weddings and we are hoping that someday, we would have our own beautiful wedding too! So what does wedding do with this Oggo and Jullz Resto Grill titled post?

Okay, we just came from a friends' wedding when we remembered what I've read before about Oggo and Jullz's banoffee pie while passing by J. P. Rizal Street. It happened to be located in Malanday where the newly-weds had their ceremony. Thinking if it is still open (since it is a bit late), we still decided to look for it and as always, being eager that we are, we found it. 

As written, we're from a wedding that's why we were both full. We only want to try and taste it with ourselves if posts about their super delicious and affordable banoffee pie is true. 

Of course, we ordered two slices of Banoffee Pie for two people who both have sweet tooth :)

 The famous BANOFFEE PIE! 

They say that visiting this place will never be complete without it. Now, I totally agree! With just P60, you can have this very delicious dessert :)

 A pose before having a bite :)

We enjoyed and will surely come back :)

From the article I've read about this place, it was written that they also serve great sisig and other grilled food. We must try it next time.

Casa Feliz Cakes N Pastries

Ever since we went to Corazon's Cafe and Restaurant, we wanted to eat in restaurants we saw along the way. The Sapphire, Lilac and the Rainbow streets all have those inviting restaurants.

What caught my attention the most is this restaurant named Casa Feliz where I saw a big picture of cake made of pistacchio. Pistacchio: one of my forever love kind of nuts. Upon seeing that, we both agreed to go there next time.

The only thing I wanted to eat is their Pistacchio Cake which they call VIDA VERDE. Since I am not starving that time, I ordered a slice of Vida Verde.

I knew it! The first time I saw this on picture, I know it's a perfect cake. A slice of sansrival plus the infusion of green tea filling, pistacchio wafer and nuts blended well. The "just right" sweetness and slices of kiwi on top made me love it the first time I tasted it. What will invite you more is the art that comes with every serving of it :)

Did I just said I love Vida Verde? :)

Now, it's his turn.

Pesto Aligue Pasta (Aligue means crab fat)

The flavor of aligue is perfect! If only I am not allergic to seafoods. Oh well, he enjoyed this pasta and said he would love to have it again. It also comes with garlic bread.

We seldom order drinks after meal since we always end up so full but since I just ordered a slice of cake, I tried one of their milk shakes.

Chocolate Vanilla Milkshake

Casa Feliz is not just a restaurant that serves great and different varieties of food, they also design cakes and pastries for any occasion. And yes, for a very AFFORDABLE and REASONABLE price! 

What I love more about this food house is their advocacy of welcoming our deaf brothers and sisters inside their home. They are the ones who will take and serve our orders so be polite :)

Casa Feliz, by the way, is a Spanish word for Happy Home. 

It is truly a home of sweet memories.

Berry Yummy Italian Frozen Yogurt

We were looking for another place to chill when we passed by the Blue Wave Mall Marquinton. Looking around, we found this Italian frozen yogurt store. The ambiance was so attractive and fun so we decided to have some sweet desserts that match the place.

Here's what we've got:

Blueberry Cheesecake

Mango Almond Crepe

Mango Almond Crepe and Blueberry Cheesecake

We both know that it is a froyo (frozen yogurt) store but I decided to try their new specialty and he stick with the classic cheesecake. Yes, if you're a non-yogurt fan, they also serve other treats for you such as crepes and waffles.

As soon as you see this place, you will definitely find the child inside you. Take a look at their counter (photo grabbed from the internet):

 

Choose whatever toppings you want! For only P16/oz, you can have as many frozen yogurt you would love to have. Chit-chats are best in this place since it is not as crowded as coffee houses where we used to sit and talk with our friends. 

And I enjoyed Berry Yummy! It's very yummy! :)
