Red Ribbon Mother’s Day Black Forest Cake and Mother’s Day Mamon

In celebration of Mother’s Day, Red Ribbon, the leading bakeshop in the Philippines has launched two special products; the all-time classic limited edition Mother’s Day Black Forest Cake and the Mother’s Day Mamon. This tribute to the special women in our lives is available at all Reb Ribbon branches nationwide from May 8, 2015 to May 10, 2015 only.

I have always been a fan of Red Ribbon cakes, as a matter of fact, during my first few years of blogging, I always write about my favorite cakes at Red Ribbon. Fast forward to today, it is still one of my go to bakeshops when we need celebration cakes. Now that it is nearing Mother’s Day, I am happy to know that they do have this promo, thanks to the good people behind Red Ribbon for sharing this good news to us.

Cake Shots PH: Cupcakes Infused with Booze!

Cake Shots PH is a home based food business that specializes in alcohol-laced cupcakes. I cannot count how many cupcake businesses I have come across with here in Manila but I must say that Cake Shots is one of those that piqued my interest from the get go. Not just because  I am appreciative of alcoholic beverages (specifically cocktail drinks) but also because it is such a breath of fresh air to encounter something unique within the boundary of something familiar.

I think I may have mentioned before here on the blog that I am not really big on cupcakes. I guess it has something to do with the fact that we have bunch of people in the family that could bake pretty mean cupcakes that I've already exhausted enough happiness from it to last me a lifetime.

Kapitbahay Filipino Restaurant in Antipolo City [Antipolo Food Trip Series]

Kapitbahay Filipino Cuisine is one of the new restaurants in Antipolo City I recently visited and decided fit for my Antipolo Food Trip Blog Series. Located along M.L. Quezon Extension, Kapitbahay Restaurant is fairly easy to spot since it sat just right in Palm Square Building compound in front to Antipolo Doctors Hospital near Lores Country Plaza. It occupies the same space of the now defunct Goto King Antipolo Branch.

We always passed by this restaurant to and from Antipolo Town Proper and with its nice view of its interior made possible by its see through glass walls, I cannot help but be enticed. The name is a dead giveaway that it specializes in Filipino cuisine.

I have not fully exposed myself in my hometown's restaurant scene since I've come back here but one thing I noticed by far is that most of the locally owned restaurants mostly focuses on Filipino cuisine. I still have some Antipolo restaurants to write about and majority of it is Filipino restaurant. Safe course to take, but it only goes to show that locals love our very own which is not really a bad thing.
