Adventures of a Diva Princess



Of all the culinary feast in the world, I love Japanese food the most. There's something about it that always satisfy my cravings not to mention how good the food is to look at. There's so much flair and drama when you look at the feast before you. A few weeks ago, we were invited to the opening of Konnichiwa X Konbanwa. You might think its far from me, but just mention Japanese food to me and I will go to far to sample one. But then it's not really that far from me.



Upon arrival, I notice that it isn't your usual Japanese dining scene. The facade is good but upon entering you might be surprised at the beer pong tables inside. Yes there's more than a set of beer pong table inside. But the vibe of the place is so good and it is such an  Instagrammable Place! With an indoor and an outdoor seating, the airconditioned restaurant is set up in a way that it a restaurant at daytime and to those who love a cool and chill out place after a hard day's work, the Konnichiwa X Konbanwa is a cool place to hang out at night with so many cocktails to choose from with so many Japanese delicacies to enjoy. Imagine a restaurant offering good and quality dishes by day and continue on and have fun at night playing beer pong with your friends and families as the Konnichiwa X Konbanwa transforms into a bar by nightime.


As the foods were serve to us, you can watch it being made as the kitchen is open, I love how beautifully presented all the dishes are. Makes you want to devour it as soon at it is placed on the table. For STARTERS, we had Poke Bowl and the Enoki Beef Roll. The Poke Bowl (PHP 360) has Tuna, Avocado, Cherry Tomato, Ebiko, Chuwa Wakame, Carrots, Daikon in it. Quite healthy I assure you. We also tried their Uni, a fresh sea urchin menu.

They served us their Signature Maki Rolls from the usual California Maki to the Sacho Boss and the MUST TRY Konnichiwa Roll. Simply the best!




You can't help but munch on the Ebi Tempura and the KxK Chicken Wings. You shouldn't really leave without trying the simply super chicken wings.



But you know what I really love about Konnichiwa X Konbanwa? I want to visit everyday to just eat their DONBURI! They have the best DONBURI set in this side of the metro and all a MUST-TRY and MUST-ORDER dishes.

Just look at this...

Katsudon (PHP 280) It has Tonkatsu, Egg, and sliced Scallions. My forever love Japanese dish.


Chicken Teriyaki Don (PHP 260)

Chicken Nanban (PHP 250) It has  marinated chicken thigh topped with egg Tartar

Gyudon (PHP 320) with Beef and Onions and sliced scallions


The Beef Saikaro Steak Don (PHP 360) made ofBeef Tenderloin cubes with bean sprouts


And lastly the Salmon Teriyaki Don (PHP 280) which is a Pan-fried Salmon drizzled with Teriyaki Sauce


Aren't all this looks yummy? What is good about KxK is that you can downed all these foods with their wide array of alcoholic drinks and curated cocktails.

Don't you know you can have all these deliver also right to your place as they partnered with GRAB food.

After eating all that yummy food, you and your friends can also indulged in playing beer pong. The restobar has ongoing BEER PONG TOURNAMENT which starts at 10pm and you get to win ten thousand pesos. But first you have pay PhP 280 to join the beerpong game. Each team has two members and you must be 18 yrs old and above.

I remember the first time I heard about or rather saw in the news about boodle fight. A group of soldiers gathered around a long table where there’s a variety of food place on top of banana leaves and shoulder to shoulder they begin to eat by hand without utensils. It looks so much and enjoyable and promote camaraderie. Nowadays, it is not only the military who enjoy such culture as many adopt the boodle way of eating. Like Dario’s Grill, a popular Filipino Restaurant whose specialty is not only the Dinakdakan but the boodle fight

Its my third time to try boodle fight. The first one is forgettable because most of its food are not fresh and the second time is a family affair which is so much nicer. Here at Dario’s Grill, I came with my friends and the food served to us is indeed a feast. Fresh dishes are everywhere, from the itlog na pula, grilled pusit, shrimps cook to perfection, savory longanisa, perfectly fried daing na bangus
Even the bagoong is to die for, it should be bottled up for sale.

The place is very clean with nice wooden table great for boodle fight and the staff are friendlier and always ready to help.  

From the sweat and tears of Mr. Dario Lorenzo and his wife, he was able to make Dario’s Grill where it is now. It is where people can enjoy the best boodle in this side of the city and knowing that everything is freshly made and delicious too. At present Dario's has four branches in the Metro and they are chosen the Top Choice Boodle Fight Restaurant.



So what boodle package did we partake? Believe you me, all the packages are very tempting, looks yummy and affordable.

The way Milk tea brands are populating Metro Manila, one might think we’ve had our fill of it already, but people are still excited whenever famous brand such as Macao Imperial Tea are in their place.

SM City Taytay opening hours is at 10am and yet this Saturday morning seems different. Already long lines are forming in the mall vicinity, the first one at the mall entrance and the second line, coming from the transport terminal area and already has the end of the line near the footbridge of the mall.


What is going on you might ask? Well, if you don’t know what August 31 means then you’ve been hiding inside a rock! To milk-tea lovers around Taytay, August 31 is the opening day of the widely popular Macao Imperial Tea. The first in the East part of the NCR, Macao Imperial Tea finally landed and SM City Taytay got the first dibs in Rizal province and nearby areas. Proof of the popularity of Macao Imperial Tea is the long line of people waiting for the opening.



People came as early as 5am and not just to be part of the first 100 people who can or avail of the Free tumbler and the Buy One Get One on Cream Cheese Series and Chestnut Cream Series but because Macao Imperial Tea is the best milk tea in town especially with their signature drink of Cream Cheese Milk Tea.



According to an insider, Macao Imperial Tea is opening 9 more branches in the east part just for this year. Imagine our delight upon hearing this good news.

Taytay Mayor Joric Gacula at the SM City Taytay Macao Imperial Tea.

Raymart Bambao and Myra Perez is the first two customers of SM City Taytay Macao Imperial Tea who came as early as 5am.

Macao has its first branch in the country in 2017 and since then has captured the heart of milk-tea fans.

A note of warning though, if you’re a new milk-tea convert and haven’t tried Macao yet, I highly recommend having a lot of patience, lots and lots of it as their queue can take more or less an hour. But, I’m telling you the queue is worth it.

Macao Imperial Tea is located at Building A of SM City Taytay.
