Cafe Krieli: A Cute Tiny Cafe

3:14 AM

Thank God for the new cafes here in Davao that I get to try! I was really stoked when I went here last night, I have been eyeing this tiny cafe ever since I saw it while passing by along mabini street. I was already about to go home when I decided at the very last minute to check this place out because I was really curious on what kind of food they serve.

Backyard Burgers

Finally tried Backyard Burgers

10:04 AM

I have been wanting to try and eat at Backyard Burgers since the day I knew about it and honestly while looking at their menu, it is absolutely appetizing to look at that you'll literally salivate and just want to grab a bite on their burgers, but I only tasted it today since they had a 99 pesos sale on their selected burgers.

What I ordered was the Cheesy Bacon Burger just because cheese and bacon really sounds and tastes

coffee shop

Keepsakes Cafe

7:17 AM

Whenever I want to eat something delicious but still affordable I frequently go to Mcdonalds, Jollibee, or Keepsakes Cafe. Mostly cafes and restaurants in the city are quite pricey but in this cafe you'll definitely save a lot because the serving of their food is just enough for the price.

I can't remember exactly what kind of pizza my friends and I ordered but it tasted great, I think it was taco pizza and the other one is beef, and not to mention their pizza is buy one take one.

Beef stroganoff pasta and a matcha frappe. The beef stroganoff is delicious and also the matcha frappe. Their pasta prices ranges from 70-120 pesos.

This time I ordered lasagna and buffalo wings

Cheesy mushroom chicken which is definitely one of my favorites in this cafe.

Their pasta sardines is A plus too! I recommend!

I ordered lasagna again because it's just simply irresistible and also a hamburger.

And last but not the least whenever I go there I always order a matcha frappe which is my all time favorite!

Bakehouse

Freakshakes at Cheat Time Bakehouse

4:38 AM

I haven't updated my blog since April because I was a bit busy (of korean dramas lol) and so today I decided to write something about the latest food trend that you will see nowadays here in Davao City and it's called the Freakshakes. I don't know why it's called freakshakes but I guess it's because the shakes is not just an ordinary shake and you'll literally freak out once you taste it lol. So the shake has a lot of toppings at the tip of the glass, it has a slice of cake with a lot of toppings like pepero, wafer sticks, whipped cream, and a drizzle of chocolate or caramel. Sounds tempting right?

The flavors of theses shakes are nutella and vanilla. I paired my vanilla shake with a red velvet cake as the topping and it tasted good because the sweetness of the shake complimented well to the red velvet cake that I chose. While my friend who ordered the nutella flavored shake got the moist cake as the topping, I also tasted what she got and it tasted good but it was too sweet for my taste.

The second time that I went there I was also with a friend, of course because I love anything that is matcha, I ordered the matcha oreo shake with an oreo cheesecake and it was delicious I liked it so much but it's also too sweet for me so unfortunately I wasn't able to finish it all :(. My friend got the rockyroad shake and he paired it with a moist cake.

Menu price varies from the cake that you will order and it ranges from 140 to 170 pesos, and if you will order their special flavored shakes you will only have to add 20 pesos.

cold drinks

Frappes for the Summer

5:16 AM

Whenever my friends and i hangout we always like going to the mall to stroll or go to a coffee shop just to chill because it's already summer and the heat is just overwhelming and not to mention because of the rotational brownout that the people in Davao are currently experiencing, so a cold drink for this kind of weather is really awesome right now.

Matcha Frappe

Mango Graham Frappe

The first photo is a matcha frappe which is my all time favorite! I love everything that is matcha so every time i'm at a cafe most of the time what i always order is a matcha frappe. I was at koffipauze during that time because ever since their first opening last year i already wanted to try that place and when i got thei the ambiance is great and also their matcha frappe is an A plus. 😊

The second photo is a mango graham frappe and it is also delicious but quite sweet for my taste but it's still one of my favorite. I was at keepsakes during that time and if you want to eat at a budget friendly place then you should definitely try and eat at keepsakes because their food is great and it will only cost you around 70-135 pesos for their pastas and rice meals!

beef steak

Sizzling Tenderloin Steak and Beef Steak

11:29 PM

If you want to eat at a delicious but still an affordable place to eat, then you should definitely try Ems Pasta and Rolls they're located at Jacinto Extension, F. Torres Street. They serve a lot of dishes including pastas, sizzling steaks, and many more. So what we ordered was a sizzling tenderloin steak and a sizzling beef steak and it did not disappoint!

The photo above is the one that I took, the left one is the sizzling beef tenderloin and the right one is the sizzling beef steak. I liked the sizzling beef tenderloin more because it tasted amazing although the beef was a bit chewy nevertheless it was still delicious. I still recommend that you guys should try this. The serving size of each of the dishes that we ordered can already accomodate two people and each cost us (as what I remembered) around 140 pesos each dish. I also heard from a friend that their lasagna is delightful so I'll certainly come back next time and taste it myself! Can't wait!

bibimbap

Korean Food

6:02 AM

I love to eat anything especially Korean food hence my blog name which is "food for my Seoul" because someday I would love to go to Seoul South Korea and because food is my one true love. loljk. I have tried a couple of Korean dishes from different Korean restaurants here in Davao City and what I love the most is their signature dish Bibimbap.

So basically, bibimbap means mixed rice that is composed of different vegetables like carrots, lettuce, spinach, ground meat, topped with a sunny side up egg, kimchi, and chili pepper paste called gochujang.

Bibimbap

The photo above was at Gui Gui Grill, they're located in J.P. Laurel Avenue just across Victoria Plaza alongside chowking, what I love about eating at a Korean restaurant is that the food is not just delicious but they also have a big serving that two people can already share with. Not to mention the delicious side dishes like kimchi, braised baby potatoes, egg pancake, kimchi radish, and etc., I was with my two other friends during that time and we didn't just ordered bibimbap but we also ordered a samgyeopsal. Samgyeopsal is a grilled meat and it is up to you how you eat it but I eat it traditionally like putting the meat in a lettuce then I also add grilled garlic, chili pepper sauce and of course, white rice, wrap it with the lettuce, and then eat it in one go.

I have a big appetite so eating at a Korean restaurant is like hitting two birds with one stone because it's not just tasty, it also has a big serving that you will really enjoy although the price is a bit expensive but it's totally worth it.
