Vikings Buffet SM City BF Parañaque

The recent opening of Vikings Luxury Buffet at SM City BF Parañaque, the 7th branch of what is tagged as the Philippines' largest and widely patronized buffet, proves that despite few unsavory commentaries, they are still on top of their game. Growing in numbers in terms of branches, continuing to make people happy, and being part of some of Filipino's special moments shared over variety of spreads unparalleled to any other; Vikings Buffet is a celebrated feast many patrons pray to stay.

Judging from the long lines in all of its branches and often fully booked advanced reservations, it seems like Vikings Buffet meant to do just that.

Recent roadtrip to the South prompted an opportunity to visit this newly opened Vikings SM BF. Having enjoyed some leisurely feasts in the past in some of their branches, I expected nothing less and I was not disappointed. It was worth the drive from the East to the South (Thank you Skyway, bumpy road in C6 can be hell at times).

Restaurants To Visit at Shangri-La Plaza Mall

Duck and Buvette, Chops Chicago Steakhouse, Gyu-Kaku, P.F. Chang's, California Pizza Kitchen, and Teddy's Bigger Burgers are just some of the restaurants at Shangri-La Plaza Mall everyone who craves for good food has to visit. Although Shangri-La Mall established itself as a perfect destination where shoppers may find choicest retails especially when they opened up their East Wing, when it comes to equally impressive food destinations, they also do not disappoint.

Shangri-La Plaza Mall houses variety of restaurants some food enthusiasts tagged as some of the best in Manila. From locally owned to International franchise, these restaurants are the reason why Shangri-La Mall is deserving to be considered as one of the top food destinations we now have.

Recently, Shangri-La Plaza held an intimate dinner to showcase some of the best dishes that the restaurants they houses are offering. The event aims to show that Shangri-La can be the best option for leisurely dining engagement this season. But I think, regardless of the occasion, these restaurants are well worth a visit.

Jollibee Glazed Chickenjoy #Extraordinarylicious

Have you tried Jollibee's new product Glazed Chickenjoy yet? I have, just this afternoon. And I tell you, I find it amazing. Maybe because it made use of the usual crispylicious and juicylicious Jollibee Chickenjoy and just generously glazed it with this amazing sauce akin to honey. Or maybe because I am a sucker for sweet and savory combination in my food.

Whatever the reason is, I am glad that Jollibee released their Glazed Chickenjoy just in time for the sweetest time of the year. 

I have always been a fan of Jollibee Chickenjoy. Ask me about my comfort food and this proudly Pinoy spin on the well-loved fried chicken is always on my list. I grew up loving it and I don't intend to outgrow my affinity for it. Now that they throw in an exciting twist to this classic, with flavor combination that I adore, it made me love it all the more.

Hello Again! [ Mini Pancakes with Almond Butter, Bacon Bits, and Honey Recipe ]

It is my first post here at YedyLicious for 2015 and already I am talking about this easy breakfast recipe of Mini Pancakes with Almond Butter, Bacon Bits, and Honey. Not to get ahead of myself, but I have the option to start this year writing about recent restaurants I have been to or to share this recipe.

I choose the latter with paltry justification that this simple breakfast finds its way to my routine during the blog sabbatical I took recently.

I choose the latter because it feels right to remind myself to stick to my guns for the shape of things to come.

January of last year I almost bid adieu to blogging. Explaining would only lead to long narratives peppered with unspoken regrets and unrealized truths, so let us just leave it at that. All I know that is that everything seems crowded with forced art in different forms and declarations devoid of my personal trademark.

I longed for a blank canvas.
