The best fruit-filled doughnuts ever—soft and light buns, tangy fillings! Not a fan of those chocolate/dulce de leche-filled ones but they’re also not so bad. I highly recommend Strawberry, Blueberry and Mango-filled! Def my kind of carbs! 🥶 Owners are also down-to-earth and friendly! Good vibes from food to staff!

True to it’s promise, The Golden Catch has the freshest and chunkiest yellow fin tuna sashimi eveeeeeeeer! These babies are air-flown from Mindoro and dispatched fresh, not frozen. This small pack gets you around 12 HUMONGOUS pieces (I swear, it took me 3 bites to finish a piece) for P600. It’s an entire meal, man! (IDK actually cos I still had some room for dessert. 🤣) What’s great about it, it goes with an ice pack so it’s still super fresh when it arrives to you! Check out stuff from their menu: Norwegian Salmon Otoro Chutoro Hamachi Toro Hamachi Uni Sashimi Irish Supreme Oysters

I only knew Mama H as a super cool party hostess—she serves the best food when friends come over. She cooks Korean food, for the love of god! Coming from a family of bakers and a true-blue homemaker, Mama H strengthened her menu slowly but surely from her signature Chocolate Monster Cake to (the deadly) Baked Nacho Dip. Everything is richly baked. Love the girl. Love the food. Seriously a 10/10.

RJ and Baby’s namesake shop’s humble beginnings go way back in 2019 at a makeshift tent at home selling just a few products to friends and neighbors only. It was basically a garage filled with all sorts of plasticware from pots to garden furniture. Fast forward 2 years, RJ’s passing and a global pandemic, Mirawares has moved into a rental commercial space and expanded its merchandise to clothing and food, all being managed by a single working mom with a lot of support from their friends and family. If this is not humble enough of a beginning, I don’t know what is. 😏 So head over to Mirawares - Pacita Avenue in San Pedro for all your plasticware needs and Aice ice cream (my favorite, BTW)! Check out Mirawears by Mirawares on Facebook for a weekly Facebook live of apparels from kids to adult clothing!

The best loose tea to date! Finding an alternative to the commercial instant iced tea was a pain in the a$$ (cos sugar) so getting my hands on this tea set was a blessing! The last decent tea I have ever had was in 2011–Singapore’s iced lemon tea.🤣 I specifically like my teas cold so I steep the leaves in hot water first (1 pitcher does it for me so I don’t need repeat several times a day), let it cool, add honey (or not) then pour over ice. Pro-tip: Hibiscus Sangria is to die for especially at this time of the year in the PH (cos I’m a sucker for Starbucks Hibiscus Teavana. 🥴)! Pro-tip 2: Check out Project Tea 28’s coupon on Lemi and grab the gift set for just P500 instead of P700! SUPER STEAL! 10/10! I’m in love!
