If you have not hears of Chef Jade Kitchen yet, you’re definitely missing out!
To someone who lives in the Queen City of the South, you should have tried the famous Ube Cheese Pandesal during the pandemic. A lot of new businesses have become famous because of this best-seller. One of those who are known to serve one of the best (if not the best) Ube Cheese Pandesal is – Chef Jade Kitchen.
But that is not what this article is all about. Because they’ve ventured into a new pastry that would surely sell like hotcakes because of its taste, price, and form – the Russian Honey Cake.
The Russian Honey Cake became famous in Russia since the 19th century. Its rich history started when the then-honey averse, Empress Elizabeth, was baked by a young confectioner a honey cake without letting her know about the honey content. Guess what? Yes. She loved it.

But because Chef Jade Kitchen likes to have their own twist on this one, they added a modern twist!
They layered medovik biscuits, honey cremeux, a light vanilla mousse, and an almond-honey croquant so you get different tastes and texture in each forkful! Not to mention, it looks as dreamy and as IG-worthy as the Empress would want it to be.
For only P1750, you’ll get to have your own 13-inch dreamy Russian Honey Cake for your consumption. Since we all cannot travel someplace else to get a taste of it, don’t look further!

The latest development in the town of Alcoy in Cebu meant more opportunities for everyone.
The DPWH Cebu 4th District Engineering Office just announced recently the completion of the 637-meter-long seawall shore protection structure in the said town. It is aimed to protect the shoreline from erosion and scouring and will also prevent flooding. The said seawall comes with a wave deflector including embankment.

The total allocation for the newly completed project was pegged at 1-million pesos.
Seawalls are hard engineered structures that are built parallel to the shore so it can hold or prevent sliding of the soil while protecting from wave action which ultimately becomes very beneficial if the shoreline is home to important infrastructure or other buildings.
The town of Alcoy is a slowly emerging town in the southern part of Cebu. With the addition of the seawall in town, it is believed to provide even more opportunities to its people. DPWH Sec. Mark Villar believes that livelihood of the residents will be improved since small fishing boats could use the seawall in accessing the fish port. This is also big enough to act as a guide for them as they approach the shore.

The seawall itself is also a good venue for relaxation, early morning or late afternoon jog, or a stroll with your family or friends. Small vendors are expected to station along the stretch of the said structure however, as of now, only few are allowed to do business.
A huge amount of sea breeze is waiting for you here. The sea surrounding the bays of Alcoy is very attractive from afar when viewed from the seawall, mesmerizing you with its blue colored water sparkling with the lights of the sun. The view is just breathtaking you surely wouldn’t want to miss.
