I've been trying to experience more in life, doing something I don't usually do, going places I don't usually go. I've been trying to come out of my shell, and so far, everything I've done differently have all proven me right about this decision of mine, including my most recent trip to a new bar. 

Happy 119th Independence Day, Philippines! We took advantage of this holiday to be with the family and headed to Tagaytay for lunch. We left as early as 9:30am to avoid traffic. 

I've tried Cargofish before and I loved it! It's a stall that offers a simple snack I've always loved, without all the fuss. So, when Team Kaladkarin was invited to Cargofish for an afternoon-filled treat, I was so thrilled! I was so ready to indulge in some fish and chips, again.

There are places that you can't wait to return to, and there are places that you swear never to. This is a story of a place I never thought I'd be in again, and how I ended up in the same place, only in a different branch, and how I walked out with a whole new memory. 

Ice cream is very dear to me. It's the one item that carries most of my memories, not only as a child, but even as I grow up. Even before I knew how good food tastes like, ice cream has already been my constant companion, both through happy and troubled times. Now that I'm growing older, my love for ice cream is just growing stronger, especially that I have been introduced to the superior kind, the gelato. 

We take a lot of things for granted. While we complain about almost anything, we tend to forget to celebrate the littlest but most important things that make life worth living, the things that matter the most. The love and support of our friends and family, the roof over our heads, even the food we share, all these are reasons for us to raise our glasses and TOAST to a #blessed life.

Crystal Dragon is a restaurant hidden behind the walls of City of Dreams. It's a restaurant I've never heard before, but the name itself easily suggests that it's a restaurant that serves Chinese cuisine, which I never back down from.
