Hello guys. Let's welcome a new month with a travel adventure. This time, I'd love to share here my family trip that happened weeks ago when we visited my mother's place. At first, we all thought it was just a normal vacation to break our current routine in the city then it was way more than that. Boy, we were all damn wrong. Unexpectedly, they prepared good things like fresh foods there so we could all have some good time and make new memories as well. If I were to summarize that trip, then I'd definitely say it's one for the books. Something unexpected but definitely hits the right spot. A second home indeed for all of us.

Good day my beautiful friends. Sawasdee! I'm back to showcase another food diary. This time we were joined by my lovely Korean friends who recently visited Cebu. I've known him for quite a long time already and it's his first time bring his small family. Well, without a doubt, I choose Siam Thai Cuisine in Ayala mall because everybody loves Thai foods in my opinion. Also, it's the most convenient place for everybody to hangout especially after eating lunch.

Good day! Today, I have here a recent event that I've attended. It's the famous World Food Expo that always happens in Cebu every year. Yes, you heard it right. It's just only once a year so I always have to be there once I have the chance. Let's go and get this started.
What's it about?
WOFEX is a World Food Expo that is a trade show that's basically dedicated to the food service industry. It was held last April 12th to 14th at SM City Trade Hall of SM City Cebu. This year, they have a baking series, food service series, food creative series and self development tracks. It's a good venue to learn something and be immersed with the food industry I believe.
My Random Vlog : WOFEX 2018
My Top 5 Random Finds There
1. Poland's Hopia
Name it and they have basically all kinds of flavors available
2. Euro Spice
They sell pre-packed spices to make burgers, sausages and other meat products. Definitely cooking made easy when you have their products.
3. Nature's Own ( A Malaysian Brand)
They sell organic instant brown rice cereal drink that contains good ingredients for the body for that added boost of energy. They have also another selection of cereal drink that has green algae.
4. A random beverage shop
They sell many tea and coffee selections there. I got their Dilma tea chamomile and it's really good to drink before sleeping.
5. Random stores that sell potato fries, mozarella sticks and other easy to fry potato products
Yes to this. They are instant snacks and a much cheaper way since you can have them at home. People of all ages like them a lot I'm sure. Also, buy them on the last day since they offer 50% on most of their products. :)
That's a wrap. Hope you enjoyed this one. Once again, always be on the look out for new and interesting events. See you there and let's continue to explore and learn something new each time.
Welcome back to my blog everyone. I have here a random vlog about my favorite buffet restaurant. If you're from Cebu, you already have an idea what this is all about. I mean this is the Viking's Luxury Style Buffet. I've been dining here several times already and I tell you that they really don't disappoint. Each experience is fun and definitely memorable.
My Vlog about this Buffet Restaurant
Some Snippets
Top FIVE REASONS Why this place is the BEST buffet restaurant in town 1. Promos and Discounts For example, when you dine there on the day of your birthday, then you can eat for free and just add one accompany with you. There's also one for those celebrating their birth month. Also, always be on the look out since they regularly hold contests on Facebook and Instagram. That being said, if luck comes then you can eat there for free.
2. The Foods
Their food selections are quite a lot and the choices are endless. Every dining experience is fresh and lovely. If you fancy good foods and you want to eat it in big big servings, then this is the place to go. :)
3. Their customer service
This is always an added bonus to any paying customer I believe. They listen well to their customers, greet them with warm smiles and grant requests like choosing a good seat location. Things like these are always appreciated.
4. Fits all ages
There's always something for everyone. I think this is also an added advantage for them. Regardless of your gender, age, food preference, I'm pretty certain anyone can always find their own food selections that suit their personal taste.

Hey lovely friends. It's February and everybody calls this Love Month. I figured I would dedicate a blog post about love, family and everything in between. In the Philippines, family is considered as the simplest unit of society. This time I will highlight its importance in our lives.
Reasons Why Family Is Important In Our Lives
1. Helps to make who we are
It's all in the genes somehow. Our tendencies and behavioral patterns sometimes mirror each other in the family. Also, our parents help and mold us to be the best version we can be. With that being said, a big chunk of us is somehow credited to our family basically.
2. Creates memories
Let's admit it. Through the years, each member of the family tend to have different priorities and preferences in life. Let's include the rat race of course. It's also one disadvantage in the modern times we face. The more we spend time together, the more special moments are created one by one. It doesn't matter as long as it's quality time then it will always be precious to each one.
3. Aids to make better decisions
Our parents and including our older siblings are the best sources of advice and life lessons. Spending time with them also means we can consult and ask for better options in life, right? At least we can be guaranteed that our family will help us become better.
4. Relieves stress
Yes. Nothing beats a good family time I believe. It's like a good hug to your soul and senses as well. One, talking about anything under the sun gives you this sense of comfort and assurance that whatever happens, they got your covered. Second, they may give criticisms but only for our development leading to a positive change.
5. Nurtures positive behaviors
I believe in this. If you surround yourself with good people then that creates a ripple effect. Positive atmosphere leads to another positive thing or even a positive outcome. Plus, being in a positive environment with your family, makes you inspired and motivated to be the best person you can be.

My Vlog With Family
That's it for me. Let's continue to spread the love and positivity. Thanks for visiting my blog. Have a good day ahead.
Hi lovely friends. This is just a random post about the things I'm greatly thankful for last year. I figured it was truly a good year of travelling to new places, catching up with friends and spending quality time with my significant others. Anyhow, let me enumerate these things.
Things I'm Thankful For
1. The Gift of Family I'm blessed I'm given a good set of family ( parents, parents-in-law and siblings) . I can proudly say that I have a good support system assisting me achieve my dreams and helping me unconditionally.
2. Weekend Nights This I truly treasure. Weekend nights mean it's the time for me to slow down, unwind and basically detach myself from the net and computer ( which always reminds me of work).
3. Coffee + Tea + Milk Tea
Coffee because it fuels me up and gives me energy to start my day and be productive. Tea because it gives me peace of mind and basically calms me after work. Milk Tea because it gives me sweetness and pleasure at the same time. I just have this happy feeling when I drink this ( coffee / tea/ milk tea ) , I sit down and just do nothing even for a short time.
4. Baby Niece
I must admit this baby cutie has really captured my heart and attention. Babies always have this cute charm and adorable personality. FYI: Baby girl, you always brighten up my day for sure.
5. Vacation Time I am blessed that I get to share my wanderlust soul with my hubby. Vacation time is the best time for us to explore new places together sharing our passion for adventure and new experiences.
6. Cooking I may be cooking at home for several years already but still I consider myself a newbie cook. Absolutely. Through the years, I've embraced the love for cooking, preparing nutritious meals and making them look presentable and appetizing in a way. Oh, did I mention, I love love going to grocery stores too. :)
7. Sales + Discounts + Giveaway Prizes This makes me so happy and excited. I'm pleased to steal good bargains which really helped me save a lot of bucks for sure. Plus, I'm always always blessed to win some giveaway prizes which I get to share with my family and friends. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
8. Belly Laugh This is always something fun and a good stress reliever. Writing this brings back so many memories which really made me burst into much laughter. Just imagine looking at my hubby do some silly dancing moves on the spot and it always hits the right spot to just laugh my heart out. Something random but always so candid. Cuteness overload indeed.
9. Journal and Diary Writing This really makes me motivated, inspired and happy. It gives me this quiet time to reflect and be grateful with everything may it be big or small ones . Everything counts and all details matter definitely.
10. Dining Out Yes please. Eating out is like a sweet escape of the norms. It gives me new experiences, a different twist of flavors and just pure bliss of eating good foods that comfort my soul.
11. Korean Dramas Yes yes and more yes! Currently, I am watching The Golden Life, The Black Night and 2 Cops. Watching these dramas give me that kilig factor. Their actions, handsome actors of course ( I have to mention that) and just so entertaining. A good source of entertainment definitely.
12. Thoughtful Students I've been an online teacher for many years and it's not everyday that I meet these handful students. Especially, last year, I was given a chance to meet some of them. Thank you for the warmth, kindness and thoughtfulness. My job is made easier by your presence.
13. Sweet Nothings
I may not be an affectionate person literally but getting / hearing / receiving these sweet nothings always melt my heart all the time. In this digital world we are in right now, receiving / hearing these things are very golden and should be treasured.
14. Good Health
This is really my ultimate goal. I believe health is the foundation of every single thing. I'm very much thankful that I and my family are doing well and eating well too. It's a hard lesson to learn but we really should invest in our health and everything else follows smoothly.
15. The Local Market
I've never enjoyed going there not until I got married. Ha ha. Truth be told, I really enjoy going to Carbon ( the local wet market in Cebu) most especially because I love talking to the people there, haggling and basically buying from the farmers themselves. It's just a different feeling and it's also a humbling experience each time.
My Recent Vlog
I got inspired from this Christmas Village of Hope that's why I wrote the things I'm thankful for. Basically that's it for me. Thanks for dropping by. Let's all be grateful and count each day as a blessing. Hugs.

Yes to this. They have all sorts of foods from serving meat, seafoods, vegetable dishes and even good desserts and beverages. Truly they cater all kinds of people from young to old and both male and female alike.

Well, if you ask me, I really had a good time having a good conversation with family and ending it with a good kind of coffee. It really completed my day. Sometimes it's good to be offline and connect with your loved ones. Moments like this always last a lifetime I believe.

Where is it located?
It's located in Skypark, 3rd floor, SM Seaside City Cebu, SRP, Cebu City .
My TOP FIVE Recommended Dishes
1. Their house special - Their RIBS (It comes with a side dish of veggies and mashed potato already)
2. Their sisig
3. Chopseuy
4. Tuna Kinilaw
5. Garlic Shrimps
My Vlog Experience Here
That's all for now my friends. I recommend this place if you fancy seafoods and good atmosphere at the same time. Just do be careful with the prices though since the seafood prices depend on its weight per grams. Always ask and confirm the total price before having the foods cooked before you get a shock of your like. Just kidding though.
As always, take care. Hope you have a wonderful day ahead.
