here is my first (and probably last) attempt for my bio. i am a music junky - music has always been a big part of my life, too bad, i ended up as an engineer and currently am working on an IT company - say goodbye to my rockstar lifestyle. what kind of music do i listen to? my collection ranges from coldplay, to keane, to cynthia alexander, to sandwich, radiohead, from corgan to beatles, from axl to regina spektor. i practically grew up in sampaloc with my auntie, near the rally-infected mendiola bridge - spent most of my childhood developing a delightfully overactive imagination. so there you go a hopeless romantic, flower-power, not-what-you-thought-i-was, and anything in between kind of guy.

paseo uno - a valentine review

my baby was again here in manila to actually go to a friend's wedding - but it was also our valentine celebration. my project went to a teambuilding at paseo uno and it was my first time as well. paseo uno is a smorgasborg feast hidden at the heart of the busy makati district - right inside mandarin oriental hotel. the place is really really cozy - it screams of makati's class AAAs standards but still has this aura not to distract other classes as well.

it is composed of 4 food sections - first is what i would like to call the appetizers section. foods in this section can be summarized into 3 words - raws,salads,and breads. hmmm, do not forget to try the cheeses (^_^) - el delicioussooooooooo. kaso parang may kulang sa table nato eh - pero di ata bagay sa theme nila ang mga appetizers na niiisip ko. best food on this section - lahat ng raw (according to rhea)

the second section is the section i din't spent most of my time with - i will just call it the japanese section since this is where you get your dimsums and tempura. the tempuras are great compared to saisaikis, but they do not refill it as often - pero pede ka namang magpaluto kahit kailan eh. weirdest food at this section - nilaga.

the third section is my favorite - the meat section. tbone steak, ribeye, sausages, and veal shanks are the things that will make you forget the price tag that comes along the place - just ask the chefs, and they will roast it for you. best food evar - tbone steaks.

last section is probably the best section for my baby - the dessert section. im sure di nya to malilimutan kasi nakabasag pa sya - haha parang bata :) this section will make sure that your cholesterol/fat experience is complete - they have crepes, chocolate fountain, usual ice cremes, and cakes to fulfill any sweet tooth's fantasies. best thing on this section - ung babasaging lalagyan ng stick :)

Paseo Uno is located inside Mandarin Oriental hotel right along Makati Avenue - just take a cab so you wont get lost. The parking is great and free - and the price is the steepest compared to other hotel's buffet. overall - i will give paseo uno 4 out of 5 spoons. My next stop - circles at shangrila.
