Food Post: COCA Cafe @ SM Jazz Mall

04.16.2014 by Leah // Leave a Comment

I discovered COCA Cafe at SM Jazz in Makati - by accident. I thought it was the same COCA Restaurant that AJ and I saw SM Aura, but weren't able to try yet.  We were happy to find 'it' at SM Jazz Mall during one of our weekend strolls there. I asked the male attendant at COCA Cafe if this is the same restaurant with branch at SM Aura and he said he did not know. I ... READ MORE

Food Post: Koh Samui Thai Cuisine

Macapagal Boulevard in Pasay City has become synonymous with "Dampa" because of the many seafood restaurants that you will find.  I was once a regular customer there too, until I got tired of always having to wait to be seated and learned to just place my orders through phone and have them picked up.  I know some people have apprehensions with this set-up because they do not ...

DIY Pad Thai

02.21.2013 by Leah // 3 Comments

We love Pad Thai!  Those who have been reading my blog for a time would know that because I've featured this dish a number of times already - but never as something I've made myself hehe! I was finally able to make one last weekend, thanks to this ready-made Pad Thai paste (Kanokwan brand) and rice noodles that I found at the Landmark Supermarket. I just followed the ... READ MORE

Som’s Noodle Haus (Authentic Thai Food)

11.26.2012 by Leah // Leave a Comment

We always pass by this restaurant with a weird name on our way home from Rockwell.  But it was located inside a gated residential area in a street called Alger Street, and for a long time we never figured out how to get there. And we finally did one Saturday night when we were near Rockwell and saw that it only takes a right turn from the main road to get to Alger ... READ MORE

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
