September 10, 2017

There’s just so much to see, do and experience in this beautiful city. Narrowing down the choices by having a bucket list would be perfect if you are on a shoestring budget and at the same time wanting to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Located in Matutinao, Badian – near the famous Kawasan Falls – is the newly renovated Maonanik Beach Resort. It is a picturesque resort, also flaunting stunning views which makes it an ideal venue for private and intimate gatherings. And guess what? It’s just a three-hour drive from the city!

Maonanik Beach Resort offers dramatic views of the sunrise and sunset. Who wouldn’t want to start their day with a beautiful sunrise and end it with a lovely sunset?

The pool area is a wonder. It greets you with a certain degree of awe, the moment you step out of your rooms. However, their beach looks pretty generic.

But, what more do you get during your stay?

– FREE use of Karaoke
– FREE use of Kitchen, Swimming Pool & Beach
– FREE use of kitchenware, utensils, etc.
– FREE drinking water for the entire stay
– NO corkage fee, you can bring food and/or have it cooked by the caretaker

DINE & UNWIND! Experience fun and sumptuous dining over a spectacular view of Cebu City.

With Metro Cebu’s apparent economic boom with its unstoppable growing number of skyscrapers, it would definitely be an amazing experience to witness a panoramic view of the city’s undeniably beautiful skyline. Opened just last August 2017, Tops of Cebu is the newest mountain-top restaurant in Busay that offers not just delectable dishes, but also an incredible experience to be on top of Cebu.

Daytime or nighttime, Top of Cebu can still give you an unforgettable dining experience. It will depend on your preference, though.

During the day, you will get a crystal clear panoramic view of the city while enjoying the foggy weather at the top.

But it gets more romantic or intimate at night, especially when you get to witness the majestic view of the city lights and feel the cool breeze.

Top of Cebu is owned by the Pages Group of Companies that also manages Lantaw Restaurants, Mooon Cafe, Thirsty, Shaka, etc. Apart from the amazing views, Top of Cebu serves palatable all-time favorite Filipino, American and French dishes.

Unique café experience at Green House Coffee & Dessert

Unique. I must say, this is the word that best describes this café from the place itself to the food they offer. If you need a break from the typical café setting, Green House Coffee and Dessert is here to refresh your senses.

Don’t be deceived by its name because the word “green” in “Green House” doesn’t associate with vegetables, nor it’s a vegan-themed café. Green House Coffee and Dessert offers wide choices from delectable meals to dessert bites and drinks.

To start your day, Green House café offers all-day breakfast meals served with house blended coffee or Ceylon Kisses Tea and Sandwiches served with vegetable chips.

The surprising taste of the combination of their chocolate fondant paired with complimentary ice cream is worth the try especially the Dark Chocolate Fondant with Vanilla Ice Cream & Mixed Berries compote which has a rich and familiar taste.

To all Matcha lovers out there, this cafe is also oozing with matcha and definitely one of its best-sellers. From the Japanese Matcha Cheese Cake to their Matcha frappe, it surely would satisfy your cravings for the beloved flavor. The unusual form of the Matcha Egg Waffle with Red Bean Cream and Vanilla Gelato makes it Instagram-worthy; well, all of their food are.

Another factor that contributes to its uniqueness is the place itself. Perhaps this was called the “Green House” because of the relaxing woody color of the interior and its great lighting makes the atmosphere the best place to work, study or hang out. The café is spacious and they also have a shelf of good books for you to borrow while waiting for your order or while enjoying your food and drinks.

Halo-Halo and More at Halo-Halo Central

August 21, 2017

Of desserts and confectioneries and mixtures of sweets Sugboanon’s couldn’t resist, halo-halo is our favorite. And while we may halo-halo and find halo-halo anywhere in the south (not King’s Landing), have we found a competent contender in the north?

Oh yes, we did and we got more than what we expected. Back in Winterfell, I mean, in the north, they called it HALO-HALO CENTRAL. Here are the things that you need to know about this exceptional dessert parlor in Cebu.

It seems valid to say that Halo-Halo Central offers one of the best-tasting halo-halo in Cebu. And the criteria for this is QUALITY. And this not-so-new but secret dessert parlor has an edge when it comes to this.

Halo-halo isn’t just a simple mixture of sweets. It is carefully selected and combined to achieve the desired halo-halo taste. The sweetness must be controlled and every ingredient must be made sure to complement each other’s taste. And taste how wonderful the sweets converge in your buds. That’s Halo-Halo Central for you! Delicate, refined, never-too-sweet, delicious and much more. Account that “much more” because there are more flavors to choose from.

Flavors to choose

Let me stop you right there if you are thinking of picking ingredients for your perfect dessert. At Halo-Halo Central, aside from the tasty traditional halo-halo, they are a variety of distinct flavors to choose from. You may say “I mean it’s halo-halo, it’s a mixture of lots of sweets, how would you make different flavors out from that?”

I doubt if there is a Sugboanon alive who never had tasted a single halo-halo in his entire life. If you had tasted one, then you sure have tasted the typical halo-halo taste. Take note of “typical”. For some, they have eaten a lot and more halo-halo would just bore their taste buds. If you are one of those enthusiasts, then these flavors from Halo-Halo Central must be your next stop.

Sorry, I got carried away. The flavors, right?

Aside from our maka-Pilipinong at paboritong halo-halo and all the flavor Halo-Halo Central has to offer, there is much more that you need to try out -the Parfaits. We have no bisaya term for it but it is as delicious as it sounds. And for your pride’s sake, it is read as /pärˈfā/ or “par-fey”. Here are your Parfait choices:

If you will come for the halo-halo, then much more come for this. Don’t leave home empty pocketed because this is something you shouldn’t miss.

Want more?

Yes, there’s more! Halo-Halo Central also serves meals, finger food, and drinks all-day round. Satisfy the demands of your tummy and don’t hold back.

Complete menu:

While there is almost an infinite amount of words you can choose to describe Halo-Halo Central, one phrase stands out among others “THE BEST IN THE NORTH!”. No more words, let your tongue justify my claims.

Luxurious yet affordable pampering at Serendipity Spa

Life in the city can be very stressful, schedules can get really hectic with the never-ending struggles at school or work, not to mention the constant traffic. No wonder we always look for places to relax and rejuvenate our tired minds and bodies. Now, where can we possibly pamper ourselves without having to spend much?

If you want to experience what luxurious pampering feels like, indulge in Serendipity Spa. Located in Tipolo, Mandaue City, this spa offers guests a number of different massage packages for a totally rejuvenating experience with massage therapists devoting their complete care on your precious bodies.

There can be a lot of reasons to love Serendipity Spa but I’ve listed my top 3 for you.

#1 Interior and Ambiance

Its interiors use dark and a variety of gold bends that evoke posh and elegance. The place is well-ordered and the ambiance is very relaxing. Just look at these pictures and see for yourself.

But contrary to how classy the place is, Serendipity Spa offers the same price as most spas in Cebu. For only 300 pesos, you will already experience their superbly satisfying Signature or Shiatsu massage for 1 hour. Now, who says pampering is expensive?

#2 Customer Service is first-rate

I have been to other spas and this is the first time I’ve encountered a spa who checks blood pressure before the massage. The staff really dedicates their full concern to the guests by recommending what service best suits them based on the results. However, if you want to personally choose your treatment, the therapists will just make necessary adjustments on the pressure. How awesome would that be? Excellent customer service!

#3 Spa Offerings and the Therapists

I personally tried their signature massage and believe me, it was one of the MOST SATISFYING massage ever. The therapists even had to wake me up because I fell asleep during the treatment. That’s how good they are! They are experts in deep-tissue massages that really release the stress from your body.

For a more profound experience, it’s worthy to indulge yourselves in therapeutic treatments such as Aromatherapy that employs deep-tissue massage and allow bodies to detoxify with steamed herbal packs, and Pinoy Hilot that uses warm banana leaf strips.

Note: THEY ALSO DO HOME-SERVICE SPA. So, don’t worry if you are too tired to drive your way the spa. Serendipity Spa got your back!

When you feel your body aching, it is your body telling you to relax, take a rest, have your body massaged without having to spend much, which you can experience at Serendipity Spa.

Cebu is famous for its amazing culture and gigantic buildings but, it doesn’t stop there. Because having Cebu as one of the country’s top tourists destinations, Cebu has everything for everyone of any age, even for the adrenaline junkies.

A forty-five to sixty minute drive from the heart of the Queen City of the South is the laidback Liloan. But that was before it became one of the eco-adventure hubs that it is today. Papa Kit’s Marina and Fishing Lagoon, a premier eco-tourism attraction offers up-close view of Liloan, Cebu’s finest natural treasures that you can enjoy while engaging in extreme sports and water activities while subtly seeking to educate people about the importance of environmental conservation.

Wakeboarding

One of the highlights of Papa Kits Marina and Fishing Lagoon is their wakeboarding. People say that you haven’t been to Papa Kits if you haven’t tried their wakeboarding and yes, we did!

Zipline

Another must-try is their zipline. People say that you’re not an adrenaline junkie if you haven’t tried the 800m zipline of Papa Kit’s, so?

Jungle Obstacle

Their Jungle Obstacle is also a must-try if their zipline is not enough to satiate your thirst for the adventure. Their Hanging Bridge may not look as high as the others but trust me, the adrenaline rush it will give you is just the same.

Infinity Pool

Who doesn’t love infinity pools? Papa Kit’s truly knows what we want. This is a newly built infinity pool designed for both kids and adults.

…and many more!

Other equally exciting activities that you can’t miss include Horseback Riding, Fishing, Paddling or Canoe-ing, Piti Ride, Duck Pan Boat ride, and Wall Climbing.

If you wish to try all the activities, you need not to fret as they also have rooms available for you to stay.
