My Top 3 favorite Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

#3 Snickers classic

         This ones on my top 3 because I'm an avid fan of chocolates, everything that has chocolate catches my heart. The first time I have discovered Krispy Kreme, this one is the only one who has chocolate in it. So I've tried it. And it didn't disappoint me! It was really a mouth-watering doughnut. The fact that it is really sweet is what I like most. Unlike the whole snickers chocolate, this one was different because it isn't sticking in my mouth and for someone who has braces like me, its really hard to eat if it sticks through your mouth. And also unlike any other doughnuts it has a lot of snickers toppings so the taste is really consistent.

#2 Chocolate Iced Kreme Filled

          

                Cream-filled doughnuts with chocolates? The best! This ones the best I could suggest if you like fillings. the combination of the sweet chocolate on top and the cream on the inside was the best. The cream isn't that sweet and that's what make this doughnut even better. Also, unlike any other filled doughnuts, the filling is enough to make the taste better. Other filled doughnuts has a small amount of filling so you won't enjoy it if the filling was gone because some prefer doughnuts with their favorite flavored fillings.

#1 Glazed Cake with Kit Kat

                First of all I love Kit Kat. It's my favorite chocolate of all. Second is that I love Krispy Kreme doughnuts. i have never imagined eating them at the same time. So when Krispy Kreme launched this new flavor of their doughnut, i bought a dozen of them in the same flavors and shared it to my family who also loves Krispy Kreme doughnuts. This one's really delicious not only because I like chocolates but also the fact that is sweetness wasn't that high and the delicious doughnut was combined with my favorite chocolate is what makes it perfect. It was almost close to perfection for me. All in all, we all have our different taste when it comes in determining our favorite doughnuts. Through the years Krispy Kreme had made such mouth-watering doughnuts and sweet that would really satisfy your cravings. If you haven't tried my favorites yet then you should now, I could say its all worth your money and satisfy your tummies fellas!

The Cutest Bakery in town: Vanilla Cupcake Bakery

The Vanilla Cupcake Bakery branch that I have visited was located at Alabang Town Center in Muntinlupa City. I could really say it was really a cozy place! Its like the cutest shop I have visited ever! I'll admit I didn't mind what's inside at first, but when I've tasted their sweets, that's what makes them even better. Here were some pictures of the cool stuffs around the place. 

The seats and the tables

    This reminds me a lot of my childhood days. As a child, my playmates and I always played a scene where in we were in a coffee shop drinking in an empty coffee mugs, talking about the future. Who could forget that! Also in a business it really important to catch the attention of the customers and I could say this one's really eye catchy for girls not only at my age but also the so called " child at heart" ones haha!

The Cupcakes

Well, if you were thinking that these cupcakes were expensive, then you were right. haha! I'll assure you'll forget how expensive each cupcake was whenever you've tasted one! These cupcakes won't give you diabetes in one serving unlike any other cupcakes whose sugar content were really that high. These cupcakes were just fine for sweet lovers just like me. They have a lot of flavors of cupcakes and I've tasted the chocolate cupcake first. The price of each cupcakes ranges from P75 up.

(actual picture during our visit at Vanilla Cupcake Bakery in ATC)

All in all, I had fun at Vanilla Cupcake Bakery. It is a good place to hang out with your friends, family and lover. The prices might be that expensive but it was all worth the money not only because of the ambiance of the place but also the joy of remembering our childhood days no matter how old we were now. The bakery had many branches all over some places in Manila. I'm hoping you could also feel the joy we have experienced while we were in there. Visit their branches, enjoy being young and have fun while eating your favorite sweets!

The Porch

The Porch

The Porch is a restaurant located at 113 Anonas Extension, Sikatuna Village, Quezon City which serves Good food for the right prices. 

They offer varieties of dishes but mainly for meat eaters consisting of Burgers, Ribs , Pastas , Soups & Salads, and many more. I've personally been eating here and i cant say that i didn't enjoy every single bit of the food served here. These are the following things that i can say about this wonderful restaurant that also delivers wonderful food.

"The Excalibur Burger"

This Burger literally says you cant eat me with two hands! Literally I tried but I failed it made me use a fork and a knife which somehow was a first for me. It wouldn't fit in my mouth with one bite and its also delicious not only the size matters but also the flavor. The patty does not get mixed up with the vegetables the flavors blend but you can distinguish one from the other which was a very pleasant experience in the mouth.

"Bacon, Mushroom and Cheese"

This burger is their version of the classic burger with bacon. This burger was also delicious because they made their own identity for the classic burger with bacon. With an ample amount of fries which by the way was good you can tell that it wasn't processed or anything. It can be considered as a lunch because of its size which can truly make you full just by eating one.

"The Bucket (of ribs)"

When i went to the porch i already ate my Excalibur burger plus the Watermelon Salad which already made me full but when I saw this tin bucket and decided to look whats in it it made my mouth water just by looking. So after eating my burger + salad i decided to eat ribs + rice too I didn't know how all of these fit into my stomach. But because of the flavor and the taste i think thats why. This is the ribs that they offer a they also have single servings but I think this has more value for your money I think it costs about 800 pesos for a bucket of ribs + 5 rices. The flavor the meat falls off the bones and tender sweet and the sauce just compliments that meat a truly delicious and mouthwatering experience.

"The Mighty Ton"

This really got me excited overhearing from my father me and my cousins wanted to try this beast! This is the Mighty Ton the biggest burger offered by the porch the meat is a KILO of USDA Tenderloin stuffed in their homemade 12-inch bun with Bacon, Tomatoes, Onions, Mushrooms, plus barbecue, cheese, or sour cream fries. The price is 888 pesos for this monster and i advice you and your friends or barkada to try beat this there is no challenge with the mighty ton but devouring it is already a challenge so you and your friends have to try this!

Overall The Porch delivered and really sets the bar for this kinds of food. Taste + Size + Service really gives the porch an edge. I really see myself coming back numerous times in this joint may it be with my Family, my Friends, My Cousins. There's always something for everybody so guys i highly recommend that you try and go eat at the porch NOW! :)

Top 5 Malabon Foods

TOP 5 MALABON FOODS

#5 Milfores Pichi Pichi

Let's talk about desserts first! Haha. Kinda baligtad noh? Anyway, this sticky, cheesy and yummy dessert of Milfores will take you to cloud-9! Of all Pichi Pichi that I've tasted, this one was loved by my taste buds! It's very tasty and flavorful plus the overflowing cheese on its top, PROMISE, UGHHHH YOU CAN'T RESIST! So I'm telling you that if you'll not love this Pichi Pichi, you're not human! Go get a human taste buds out there so you'll enjoy the food here in our city! Haha.

#4 Dolor's Kakanin

Next stop is Dolor's Kakanin where you'll see the different colors of Kakanin that will make your mouth watering! This kakanin is very tasty and is very pleasing to one's eye! A rainbow and a purely Filipino type of dessert it is! You should try one of those and bring some home!

#3 Que Kiam

Nope, this is not the Kikiam that you always see in a tusok tusok kariton! This is very different aside from its spelling. This Que Kiam is my ultimate favorite an I can eat 5 sticks in a row plus the sauce that compliments the dish itself. Its taste is very unpredictable because it's mixed with the taste of sweet and sour! Basta masarap 'to! Super sarap! Try it! Try it! Try it! And I'm pretty sure you'll love it!

#2 Norma's Pancit Malabon

In any place, you'll see Pancit Malabon stores BUT this Pancit Malabon is the ORIGINAL and the BEST! Although it's located in Navotas City but we consider it as Pancit Malabon because it's just near the boundary of Malabon and Navotas. Haha. Anyway, this Pancit Malabon is very scrumptious because of its overflowing toppings like big slices of egg, squid and different kinds of fresh vegetables that made the Pancit Malabon more flavorful. I'm very loyal to Norma's Pancit Malabon because no one can beat its unique taste! This is a MUST TRY food here in Malabon!

***DRUM ROLL PLEASE*** HAHAHAHA

#1 Judy Ann's Crispy Pata

This is my Top 1 food in Malabon because it's one of a kind and a trademark here in Malabon. This dish will never be absent in our table during Noche Buena and Media Noche although, it's a "pamatay" food because of high cholesterol but we love it so much because it's very tasty and super mouth watering! (I'm excited while typing this at the same time HUNGRY! Haha) In fact, they always have LONG LONG lines of people buying their product during Noche Buena and Media Noche and I experienced arguing with some customers because they're not falling in line properly. As in LONG LONG LONG lines huh! I mean it! Malabonians loved their crispy pata so much! Anyway, THIS IS REALLY A MUST TRY WHEN YOU VISIT MALABON! Hindi kayo bibiguin ng crispy pata na ito! HAHA.

PS: Thanks for dropping by! Hope you enjoy the experience of knowing our delicacies here in our city! Hope to see you around here in Malabon trying the foods above! Happy eating! :)
