few of my fave from KALE Cafe and Restaurant; Fairview, Quezon City ( their banana bread is worth the trip to fairview according to Inquirer)🤍

as a food reviewer, I eat everywhere—but as a Fairview local, Kale has been my absolute go-to neighborhood sanctuary since they first started back in 2018. (yes, since they started!)

long-time followers might remember my absolute favorite Calamansi Cheesecake from their early days.

while it’s sadly no longer on the menu, one thing hasn’t changed over the years: Kale’s absolute knack for creative, texture-driven comfort food, and vibrant vibe.

it’s rare for a neighborhood cafe to stay this consistently innovative for years, but Kale continues to crush it. Kudos!

that’s why I was super happy to see them being finally recognized 🥹

they’re featured by Philippine Daily Inquirer, claiming their signature banana bread was “worth a trip to Fairview.”

but if you’re only coming here for the pastries, you are missing out on the best part, cos there’s so much more to their menu.

✅ pet-friendly
✅ with parking
✅ no wifi
✅ no sockets
✅ big tables for a quick working sesh

Mid-September already, but this one’s been sitting with me. 🎶🐾

They say August is ghost month. I never really believed that, but this one did test us — showed us people’s real colors and real intentions.

August also reminded me that life is never just good or just bad.

Yes, Flashy needed minor surgery, and it scared me, but he handled it so well I couldn’t help but be proud.

Yes, there were sleepless nights, but also tons of good news like brand collabs.

Yes, I stayed home more than usual, but that gave me space to pick up painting again after 6 years.

Even the hard parts had something good tucked inside them.

What matters more than what happens to you is how you choose to handle it — staying kind, staying grounded, and never stepping on others just to get ahead or to get what you want.

Not that life was hard or good, but that you handled it with your values intact. Wherever you are in your own “August” right now — I hope you keep showing up, the right way. 💛

I paid for this peace, with money, time, and effort. I’ll see you in court before I let anyone take it 🤍

people don’t realize how much it actually costs to build a life this calm. the money I put in, the sleepless years, everything I sacrificed just to get here. the relationships I had to let go of, the sacrifices I made just to get to a place where I could finally breathe. moving out on my own, learning to manage everything myself, saying no to people and situations that drained me, all of that added up to this peace I have now. and that goes for both my personal life and my business

I’ve learned the hard way that kindness doesn’t always get reciprocated. sometimes you give someone a chance nobody else would, you help them see life in a very different perspective, give them a reason to go on, help them build and appreciate their own life, and instead of gratitude, they use everything you gave them against you

that kind of betrayal used to make me question if being kind was even worth it. but I’ve realized the problem was never my kindness, it was giving it to people who saw it as an opportunity instead of a gift

so no, I’m not being dramatic when I say I’ll protect my peace fiercely, legally, professionally, personally, however it needs to be protected. I earned this life, and I’m not giving anyone free access to disrupt it just because they think they’re entitled to.

pov: it’s ber-months already, and you’re a Filipino 🤍

as Filipinos, Christmas isn’t just a day, it’s basically a 4-month celebration. the past few years, I almost forgot that, life gets busy, work gets busier, and somewhere along the way the holidays start feeling more like an obligation than something to actually look forward to

watching the first episode of Cheers holiday mini series reminded me of that joy I almost lost, and it got me reflecting on everything that happened this year, and the people who helped and supported me along the way

it’s such a beautiful reminder of what Filipino giving and helping actually looks like, not always grand gestures, sometimes it’s just showing up, lending a hand, making things a little easier for someone you care about

this season, I’m just really grateful, for the people who showed up for me, and for the small moments of support I didn’t always say thank you for enough 🤍

📍 catch ALAMAT - TANEO PHILIPPINES ,and Alamat - Jao Philippines of ALAMAT in Cheer’s Holiday Mini Series🎄

P.S i’m now craving for bibingka with madaming salted egg, any recco? 🙈🙊🐒

Please don’t tell me I’m the only one who didn’t know Ramen Nagi PH has an Izakaya! 🙈

Yes, Ramen Nagi has an Izakaya concept restaurant, and it’s called Nagi Izakaya and it’s in BGC.

We went for Saturday lunch and surprisingly, there were only a few people, so it was nice and chill. I heard it gets busy on weekdays though, especially during work hours 👀

The menu has A LOT to choose from, so obviously I didn’t get to try everything 😂 They also have alcoholic drinks if you’re coming here for drinks + food 🍻

But my personal fave is their Bolzico Beef Hamburg Curry Rice. 🤍

Another thing I liked is that they have alfresco seating and they’re pet-friendly 🐶🤍

Will prolly be back to try the sashimi and maki rolls!

Btw, here’s everything that we ordered:

Truffle mushroom appetizer- 268
Yakimono platter - 700 x2 (1 shio, 1 tare)
-chicken wings
-butabara
-chicken skin
-bacon enoki
-chicken yakitori

Hamburg curry - 568
Pork katsudon - 498
Black sesame ice cream - 220
Vietnamese iced latte - 165

no one’s talking about how living alone is such an expensive therapy.

living with my family brings a lot of pros. I didn’t have to think about anything else but work, I’d wake up with food already ready, clean clothes waiting, and if I ever needed to step out and worried about Flashy, there was always someone around to help

it was easier, but for a long time, I knew that wasn’t enough.

I needed more growth, I needed to become someone different to be ready for the kind of person I actually wanted to be

so when I finally decided to live on my own, I knew exactly what I was walking away from.

it wasn’t something that just happened to me, it was an intentional choice, even knowing how much I’d be giving up, and how I might disappoint my parents

and it’s been really hard.

3 years now, living alone without hiring any house help. doing my own laundry, managing my own side projects on top of a full-time job, taking care of Flashy, and still trying to make time for friends and family.

and let’s be real, it’s not cheap either ha. financially - it’s a whole different kind of responsibility

but somewhere in all that hard, it also gave me peace.

more time to actually know myself, to let my thoughts breathe instead of rushing past them, to sit with my emotions instead of avoiding them.

it gave me the space to figure out how I actually want to live, and what kind of people deserve to be part of that life

it also made me and Flashy so much closer, it’s been just the two of us through all of it, and honestly, that bond is something I wouldn’t trade for anything either 🤍

maybe I could’ve learned these same lessons eventually, even without living alone. but I know living alone accelerated all of it, it forced growth I probably would’ve delayed for years if I stayed on my comfort zone

comfort kept me safe, but deep down I knew safe wasn’t going to get me to the next level of who I wanted to become.

it’s hard, yes. but at the end of the day, you need to choose your hard 🤍

this is one of Singapore’s most famous cafe/bakeshop 🥐🤍

and no need na to fly to Singapore for this viral cafe and bakeshop

yes, Tiong Bahru Bakery has been in BGC for over a year already

btw, we went on a Saturday afternoon before leaving, we also got a complimentary Kouign Amann and Almond Croissant for takeout.

for reference, our orders are

1 OG Hot Teh Tarik, 1 TBB Hot Teh Tarik, 1 Ube Matcha, 1 Almond Croissant, which came out to ₱885 total

So, you can peg a pair of pastry and drink at P 500+

overall, this is a place I would go back to try their other pastries and of course the coffee too!
