kapitolyo foodie post: ramen cool

did i ever mention that i live in a foodie neighborhood? i tell ya, there are lots of places to eat sa kabilang kanto ng bahay namin! :)

let me take you on our foodie trips, one resto at a time.

we'll start with ramen cool, a japanese place which opened just last dec 2011.



the food photos on their menu were not as professionally taken as i expected from a nice resto. ewan ko, parang di appetizing yung ibang items dahil lang sa picture.

we are cutting back on our evening intake so we just ordered 3 items. food was just OK, prices OK lang din. nothing to rave about.







the interiors bright. i liked it.





the servers were very nice and efficient.

will we eat there again? maybe. we love japanese food, and it's the nearest japanese resto to our house. :)

celebrating the new year



we checked into the oakwood premier on 31 dec with my in-laws. it was mainly to celebrate the new year together as a family, and escape the dust and smoke that will hover over the metropolis after all the fireworks! and we escaped it indeed!

i love the oakwood! their one bedroom suite was super spacious and even had a washer/dryer and dish washer, among other appliances.
