Fortune Seafood – Food Adventure at Lights Out (2nd Installment)

Now for the lunch installment of our food adventure at lights out. (“,)

(Click here for the breakfast installment.)

After a short (and brisk) walk on our errand route, we were ready to have lunch.  Not that ready really (my carb on carb breakfast was still sitting heavy in my tummy) but we already found ourselves at Otek Street, standing in front of Fortune Seafood Restaurant. (I was still in a seafood mood from being seduced by Chef K in the seduction episode of The Taste. *hihi) (SPOILER ALERT!!! Congratulations for winning the competition, Chef! \m/) My brother and I debated if we were going to push through with lunch here.  Argument one, it looked pretty expensive, and I definitely didn’t want a repeat of the Goldilocks brazo de mercedes incident …although I was pretty sure they accepted cards here =D.  Argument two, it might be more fun if the whole family or just a bigger group of our foodie loved ones came to dine with us.  The debate didn’t take long with my desire to check a new place off the list winning over the two arguments.  Through the restaurant doors we went to see what F/fortune held for us.

The dining scene at Fortune. Intimidating size of a dining hall with elegant little details (chandeliers, table cloth, chairs) that make you think it’s super expensive to eat here. =)

Café by the Ruins: Years of Good Food for the City and Its Visitors (the 100th blog \m/)

Through the years (at least from the time I became aware of the world outside =b) Café by the Ruins has always been there providing good food and great meal experiences for Baguio’s residents and its visitors. (I remember hearing their ads on the radio, listening to the grownups talk about dining there, etc. )  It’s only right then that this is the restaurant I feature for my 100th blog. Weee!!! (“,)

How Much Does It Cost to Go on An Eating Binge…

Planning on going on an eating binge (in celebration of 2012 going out and 2013 coming in…or just because)?  A buffet is a good away to go.  \m/ You get a huge spread for a good price and it all depends on how much real estate you can fill in your tummy. (“,)
