Little Miss Wanderlust

I had work today and was dreading the heavy traffic I was about to go into when I left the house. I got a cab (it was coding day for the car) and prayed that it won't be a long ride. On my way to Makati I passed by EDSA. It was around 1030am and people were getting ready to pay their respects for Cory. Banners here and there.. a sea of people in yellow were starting to form already. I was disappointed that I forgot to bring Rhino (my camera) today... Tsktsk. What a sight to see. While I was at the cab, the driver started a conversation. It went.... Manong Driver: " Grabe no, ganyan kamahal ng tao si Cory. Parang yung kay Ninoy din nung 1983 no? Naalala mo pa ba? Me: "Ay Manong, wala pa po ako nun e." Manong Driver: "Ay sobrang bata ka pa pala... dapat eto hindi mo mamiss. Nakakapangilabot no?" Me: "Oo nga po e.." And that did it for me.. I decided there and then that I must be part of this. So when I got to RCBC, I logged in, then went down with A...

I have been wanting to try out this place for quite some time already so when a number of friends wanted to get-together and have dinner at Fish Out of Water, I have to admit that the first thing that I thought of was "FINALLY!" :) The setup or ambiance was leaning more on modern style but still a bit homey. What the place offers is 'fusion'. A combination of Mediterranean cuisine with a local twist. Service was great as well, the crew is very attentive and all-smiles. On to the food.... Smoked Fish Pizza - Not your usual pizza. The smoked fish was just the right taste and its combination with the veggie toppings was just perfect. It can be shared by 2-3 persons. Labahita ala Bacalao Pasta - Also not your usual pasta dish. It's Linguini pasta with Labahita (fish) flakes. Twiced Cooked Pork Belly with Shitake Leek Mashed Potatoes - Another yummy and "big" dish. It may look small in the pic but it can really be shared by up to 4 persons. Almost everybody ...
