Slice at Bonifacio Highstreet Central

-
After a photo shoot held at an undisclosed location within Bonifacio Highstreet, I headed to Slice to relax and to have a light snack while waiting for my sister as she was still busy at work. I was still doing my Nestle Fitnesse challenge then so it took me a while to choose what I'm getting as I don't want all my efforts to go to waste. Yes, vanity sure has its price.

I love the cozy feel of Slice as it surely makes a great place to catch up with your girl friends. My only wish is that they should have free WiFi connection for those who intend to do some work here. They also have a private area at the back portion of the restaurant which would be great for small meetings.

slice 1
Finally, I chose the Aglio Olio (Php. 390) and requested to have this split into two as I'm sure my sister would be hungry by the time I pick her up from work. I'll be honest, I was a taken aback by the 300+ price tag. It's a bit too high for a casual dining place like Slice and to think I'm getting the simplest pasta in the list. Even my favorite pasta place, Cibo, would have cheaper pasta dishes and they've been around for decades already. I'm glad though that the pasta wasn't a disappointment. They were pretty generous with the shrimps and salmon added into the pasta, the noodles were al dente too. I'm definitely ordering this again next time and I'm trying it with low-carb mashed potato as I'm so curious what it will taste like.


slice 2
To go with my plate of pasta, I ordered the Moringa Miracle (Php. 100). A perfect diet-friendly drink and while I was bracing myself for something closely similar to wheatgrass that tastes quite a lot like....grass, I was surprised by this one. Not a single hint of Malunggay instead I can taste the citrus-y flavor brought about by the calamansi added into it. It was very refreshing and I'm so glad I was brave enough to try this. Definitely a must try!

slice 3
Paul wasn't able to join me that day yet I made sure to bring something from Slice for him to try at home. Chatting with the server, I was told that their Double Choco Yema Cake (Php. 240) is one of their best-sellers. I got a slice and when I handed it to Paul, he immediately opened the box, got a fork and within minutes devoured the thick slice of cake. Wow! I was able to try a bite before the slice of cake totally disappeared and it was indeed very good. Very rich and creamy as it was a perfect combination of deep dark chocolate and caramel yema. They also have a cupcake version of this and I recommend that you try it.

Over-all, this may be one of my more expensive afternoon snack but I truly had a satisfying Slice experience. Who said healthy food has to be bland? I am excited to go back to Slice to try more of their dishes and to have another slice of that yummy Double Choco Yema Cake!

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
