Bon Chon Chicken + Mister Kebab's

My officemates and I have been planning to try Bonchon Chicken for quite sometime now and we were finally able to eat there for lunch! We anticipated a huge lunch crowd so we went there around 1:00PM to make sure we had seats. It was still a full house. Luckily, we were able to snag a table while we were ordering.


Their set-up is like a fast food restaurant, similar to what they have in Chowking. You order and pay at the counter and will be given a number. Their kitchen is separated from the ordering counter.


That's Brix, me and Peng with his "smiling" eyes! :)


That's Borj, Brix and Tammy. :)




We ordered the family chicken set which costs around Php 700+. It was fabulous, to say the least. The skin was crispy and flavorful and the meat was juicy and tender.


Kimchi Coleslaw. A nice alternative to the usual coleslaw because this one has a bit of a kick from the kimchi flavor.


Peng with his Tofu Salad. Had a forkful of this but it wasn't that good. Peng was also disappointed with how this salad tasted. The vinaigrette it came with was too sour! It was like swallowing pure vinegar.

The next day, we had a meeting in Eton Centris so I invited Vic and Peng for a lunch in Mr. Kebab! This restaurant is open 24 hours and is located in West Avenue. There are always customers in this place, each time I visit it. Back in college, this is the place we go to to eat after partying all night!


Mr. Kebab's Menu and address.


Yogurt Shake. I love this drink. It's like a slushie version of Yakult!


Special Chelo Kebab, P130 (It was only P80 three years ago!). I have yet to order something else in their menu that is better than this one! There are two kinds of beef strips. One is tenderloin and the other is made from ground beef. Both are delicious! This is how to eat a Special Chelo Kebab. You first remove the burnt part of the tomato and squish it. Spread the margarine all over your rice. You put the garlic cream sauce on your beef, rice and tomato. You can also add some hot sauce if you like; then it's Bon Appetit!


Chicken BBQ. I was not able to taste this but Peng said it was okay. :)

Overall, I recommend that you all try these two restaurants! They both have very delicious food and the prices are quite reasonable!

Hospital Cheat Sheets

Hello mommies! Sorry I have been busy trying to balance spending quality time with my baby, the pastry shop @joaniescupcakes and our newly launched online store, Petit Bébé PH.  Check out our IG and FB pages if you have time, @petitbebeph. 😍 Anyway, a lot as been asking about the hospital lists that I made for my delivery so here they are! As some of you might know, I am quite OC about paperwork and I have no pain tolerance so I really wanted to make sure that my doctors did not miss anything about my medical history. I was also confined 3x during my pregnancy. This is why I wanted to make sure that my list is detailed so we could avoid mistakes. Information Sheet This is the information sheet that I made. I consulted my OB prior to my delivery about the things that will be asked during check in/ labor. The text is RED are things you need to fill out on the way to the hospital as you might not have enough time to print them when you start contracting. Birth Plan ...

Eating at Home

Reg and I have been trying to lose weight to better control our sugar intake. We ate out a lot when I was still pregnant so he gained "pregnancy pounds" as well. Haha! I have been going to the supermarket to buy 3 weeks worth of dinners the past 2 months and I have been making weekly menu plans to help us achieve our goal. Honestly, I have always felt lazy to do this menu because the meats available at the grocery varies every week. I tend to buy what looks good so I can't stick to 1 set of menu come marketing time. First, let's start with the supermarket. We are closer to Unimart Greenhills but I feel that prices there are higher and there are times when their stock delivery is delayed. I always end up not being able to buy everything that I need. In order for this menu planning to succeed, I now go to my trusty Landmark Supermarket in Trinoma. I used to shop there when I was still single but I stopped going when I moved after getting married because I hated the ...

On Being the "Good Quality Crab"..

When I was in high school, I watched this movie entitled, “The Joy Luck Club”. I think I was with my mom and sisters when we watched it. The movie tells the story of four women who escaped their difficult lives in China, went to the US, had daughters who all seem to inherit their weaknesses and how they all were able to rise up to their shortcomings and get better. There was this part where everyone was having dinner and they were eating crab. June, who thinks her mom always compares her to the beautiful Waverly, got angry at the latter because she thinks that she is never good enough. Her mom told her that it’s not true and uses the sample of the crabs they had for dinner to emphasize. At the table, Waverly immediately gets the claw, which is the best part but June gets the smallest piece because she wants others to get the better ones. Her mom says that it’s because June has a good quality heart. It has been a running joke in our family that my eldest sister, Cla, is June because she...
