Foodie Fave: Simply Thai

Gone are the days when our energetic selves would be awake til dawn.

Hitting our mid-20s means this: late night episodes would have us yawning by 11pm and Saturdays will be bumped off by Sunday brunches and early dinner catch ups on weekdays. :)

For all the mid-20s in the house, can you relate? Lol!

Is it just us? Whether this is a sign of aging or just a phase that we will soon get over with, there's beauty in the quiet stillness of Sundays and the ho-hum of Makati that doesn't look like it at all on a weekday.

So it was set: drop by Rosa Clara for our friend's wedding gown fitting, then have late lunch at Simply Thai in Greenbelt 5. :)







"Authentic Southeast Asian flavours passionately prepared as vivid and dynamic as the colours of Thailand, each dish here at Simply Thai is a treat and adventure for the senses." - Simply Thai

Appetizer first: Thai Fresh Rolls (240) - glass noodles rolled with fresh vegetables and shrimps



Green Chicken Curry (P360) - generous serving! Simply Thai has an array of curries but this is one of their specialties! A must-try with their jasmine rice!




Tom Yum Kung (P510) - this is a little bit watery but I like its taste - sweet, spicy and sour with just the right balance. They serve this on a metal burner to make sure that the soup is well heated all throughout :)

Steamed whole Seabass in Lime Garlic Sauce (P800/kg) - This is my top choice! I'm used to having my steamed fish with tao-si (chinese-style), so this is my first time to try it with this sauce and it's goooood :) Definitely worth the price because of the seabass' firm and fresh meat :)


With Ponggy, Mhe and Kimmy (decade-old friends!)


These guys have listed down their specialties on their FB page: 

"Thai mouth watering salads such as the Yam Som oh (Pomelo salad with chicken and prawn), Krabi Salad (seafood in lime-coconut dressing), Crispy Cat Fish Salad, Laab Gai and Laab Moo (chicken or pork salad respectively) and the Som Tam (green papaya salad).

Traditional Thai Curries such as Green chicken curry, Gai Mangosteen curry, Yawarat duck curry, Lamb Shank Massaman, Pork Tamarind, Pork Pineapple and Aromatic Prawn Curry.

Stir fries such to fire up your appetites such as Chicken Cashew, Chicken Pandan, Thai Beef Rendang, Patbung with crispy pork and more.

Delightful rice and noodles such as Pad Thai, Khao Kluk Kapi, Pineapple rice, Pad Siew, Khao Pad Moo and Khao Pad Gai, and Khao Soi."

Passionately Curious

Here is the post I wrote years ago! I echoed here what I learned from the 2 speakers, Tricia Gosingtian and Ana Santos. Tricia is a fashion blogger, so there's a part of the event in which we all had to pick out and model the outfits from Bayo then Tricia picked out winners from the attendees. So the event started with that then went into the specifics of fashion blogging then writing in general. :) Hope you'll pick up a few writing nuggets! Happy reading and writing!

It's Perfectly Fine Not to Say Anything

Last weekend, we went to this Starbucks branch in Tagaytay and it was really lovely. It was situated below a steep driveway, and unless you know where to look, it would be quite easy to miss. But it's a spacious lot -- with glass doors, paintings, couches, benches and wooden architecture -- it may just be my favorite Starbucks by far.

Ligawan Stage So this is the part where Dennis already laid down his intentions, and I said yes to courtship.  I’ll share here the things we learned and what God taught us during this season. Hope this encourages you! Dennis told me to share his insecurities in this blog because he thought that it would encourage the men out there. Some of his insecurities were:
