Signature Cheese Tart and Cheese Tart Baked with Oreo - these are the two new products of Uncle Tetsu Sweet Shop.

ALQUERIA Tapas, Paellas Y Bistecas in SM Megamall, The Rebirth

Alqueria in SM Megamall is a Spanish restaurant formerly known as Boqueria. When friends and some of Manila Food Bloggers I follow started talking about Alqueria online, I was under the impression that it is a new concept to hit the lines of restaurants at Mega Fashion Hall. Turns out, it is a renamed version Boqueria with a little bit of revamped thrown in for a good measure.

Specializing in Spanish cuisine including the well-loved churros con chocolate, Alqueria is established by one of today's successful restaurateurs Marvin Agustin. Joining him in this venture are fellow great names in entertainment industry namely Agot Isidro, Mylene Dizon, celebrity stylist Liz Uy, and ABS-CBN president Charo Santos-Concio. 

The creative minds behind Alqueria may be star studded but what shines the most in this league is the band of great tasting Spanish dishes poised to satisfy Alqueria's diners - whether Spanish cuisine-lovers or otherwise.

The Original Cookie Sticks: Happiness In a Form of Sticks

The Cookie Sticks is a new food business concept specializing in well-loved cookies with a different treatment. Instead of the usual round flat shape, Cookie Sticks features a modern twist to a classic - cookies in a form of stick. 

Established by Marc and Tina, a couple that hails from Marikina City, The Original Cookie Sticks aims to provide a new way to enjoy an old-time favorite. A very apt accompaniment to cookies in stick form, Grissini or Breadsticks is also one of the products that The Original Cookie Sticks is known for.

Currently, The Original Cookie Sticks has three branches; SM Megamall, SM Fairview, SM Southmall, Malanday Marikina, and a distributor at The District Ayala Northpoint Mall in Talisay Negros Occidental.  I got to visit their SM Megamall branch recently to try their products and while I haven't opened my stash yet, I was already impressed by the look of their kiosk.

I AM KIM Korean Restaurant, Estancia Mall at Capitol Commons Pasig City

Playful, bold, and genius - if I could sum up I AM KIM at Estancia Mall in Capitol Commons Pasig City in three words, that would be it. Specializing in Korean Stone Bowl Rice or popularly known as Bibimbap, I Am Kim is a brainchild of who in my opinion is one of the best chefs in Manila, Chef Him Uy de Baron of Nomama Ramen fame.

While the recent discontinuation of the ramen place threw a sense of despondency up in the air inhaled by Nomama Ramen aficionados, myself included - Chef Him's flair for translating his genius into palatable creations remains unabated. Case in point, I AM KIM. 

If it isn't your first brush with Chef Him's creations, the same enticing charm can be well expected with his offerings at I Am Kim. As for me, we will go back to the firsts three words of this write up - playful, bold, and genius. Now let me prove my point.
