Chicago Couch Potato: Nachooos! Twister Frieees!

This is still part of our post second anniversary celeb. As mentioned from my previous post, we went up North to celebrate. <3 After carb filling in C', we went to Harbor Point (an Ayala Mall inside Subic) to look around. Wala lang, malling before dinner. :)) While strolling, I saw this kiosk and saw the word POTATO. You see, I have a soft spot in my tummy when it comes to potatoes (especially when fried.. hihi) and nachos. 

Jap and I tried Chicago Couch Potato's Twister Fries and Nachos. O diba, kung may New York Fries and Dips, meron ding pambato ang Chicago in Subic. Labo! Haha! Nothing very very fantastic about the food but we love the big servings. Our orders were also served hot but we had to wait for that but it was okay. We weren't rushing anyway. The powdered lemonade drink was okay as well. We love snacking/munching/junk fooding (Or ako lang yun? Haha.) so we were happy that our 200+ pesos was worth it naman. Happy tummy! <3

C' Panizzas & Pasta: A Taste of Italy in Pampanga

Jap and I turned two last 9/05. <3 So as part of our 2nd anniversary celeb, we went up North to fill our bug tummies with happiness. Yay!

1st stop: C' Panizzas and Pasta located in Petron Clark. This is the second branch of C'. The first branch is located in 1210 Don Juico Avenue. Based on the reviews from the internet, it has a bigger seating capacity. The menu has wider range of choices and a lot of celebs/big personalities have dined there already (e.g. Kris Aquino). Would love to dine there soon. Their branch in Petron Clark I think, is their attempt to reach out to a bigger market. As for me, I looove the food. Our tummies were happy!! <3

 French Bread with Basil Vinaigrette. Freshly baked- still hot when served. I love that it's chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside. 

Creamiest Pumpkin Soup I've tasted. Delish!!!

Red & White Sauce with Shiitake Mushroom. I guess they combined the tomato and cream sauce and they came up with this pasta dish. I love the clash of bitter, sweet and salty. YUM!!

And at last.. their famous panizza! We ordered the Bacon with Garlic. This is love! I never like sprouts and arugula but I know that it would very well compliment with the panizza so I still put a little. Hence, my flat rolled panizza below. I love the flavors! Italian food is LOVE. <3

I love their brewed iced tea as well. I love brewed ice teas!!

Serenitea: That Extraordinary Happiness in a Cup of Tea

I'm not a coffee drinker. I think I'm the only one who didn't join the bandwagon when Starbucks became a hit here in the Philippines. I just can't drink coffee. It doesn't appeal to my taste. Although I like some coffee infused drinks/food. As long as it's cold and not bitter. I especially love Selecta's Coffee Crumble. Going back, my alternate for a caffeine fix is a hot tea. Although I'm not a regular drinker as well. I occasionally drink coffee when I was still studying, after a heavy meal or anytime I like. Oldies na oldies, diba? Hahaha! After the froyo craze, came the milk tea craze. My favorite, and Jap's favorite as well will forever be Serenitea. 

Our forever order:

Bea: 1 large Hokkaido, 50% or 25%, Pearls, Extra Pearls (Forever Number 1 for me)

Jap:  1 Large Okinawa, 50%, Pearls

Aaaaaand.... one order of chicken chops, please!

Our orders. See those pearls? :)) Our forever fave: Chicken Chops (inside white paperbag)

Serenit(y)ea

Jap and I love trying out the latest milk tea in the Metro but we will forever go back to Serenitea. We love the chicken chops. It has this herb-y, curry-ish taste. It also comes with crispy basil leaves which I adore. I love the combination of chicken chops + milk tea, they compliment each other's tastes.  Another reason why I love Serenitea is the fact that they use fresh tea bags in every order. I also love the relaxing feel of every store. Combination of white and mint green is love. Very relaxing. Very serene(ity). Chos! Drinking milk tea is one of my instant pick me upper just like eating Hello Panda. LIterally a pick me upper especially when the caffeine starts to kick in. :))

Jap and I at Serenitea, Alabang Town Center being vain and matakaw

I love that Serenitea opened a lot of branches already but I honestly miss those times when one of their few branches were in Alabang in ATC and in BF Parañaque. Maarte ako e. :)) Serenitea fix soon please! I miss it already! <3

Look for Serenitea's branches near your place: http://iloveserenitea.com/branches.html I love their website as well. Overused word for this post= love. Hahaha! <3
