Finger Lickin Good at KFC



When it comes to fast food, the one that tops my list would be KFC.  Whoever friends or family I'm with, this is the place that we eat our breakfast, lunch, snacks and even dinner. 

Let's all recall when KFC first started.  Kentucky Fried Chicken also known as KFC for many, started in Kentucky, U.S.A.  The founder of this restaurant is Colonel Harland Sanders in 1952.  The fried chicken was first served in 1930's.

KFC doesn't only serve fried chicken but also serves salad, hamburgers and desserts.  They have affordable meals.

When we order in KFC, our favorite would be the never dying spicy chicken with rice.  Once we get that meal, expect the refilling of the sauce every 5 to 10 minutes.  We are addicted to the sauce.  We pour it unto our rice just like soup.
We also love the new drinks they have which is the Krushers.  It has different combinations like cookies and cream, halo-halo and many more.
They also have the Tower Burger which is a very large burger with chicken as their patty.
They also have the KFC Double down wherein your bun would be chicken and underneath it would be cheese and mayonnaise. 


When KFC made renovations to their restaurant in SM, we enjoy the KFC Photo Booth and their free wi-fi.

It's always nice to keep coming back to this place with friends.

Krispy Kreme


Krispy Kreme has been a very well know doughnut store chain in the United States.  When it came to the Philippines, it opened its different branches in Manila.  This is the most common 'pasalubong' for many Manileños to Cebuanos.

The long wait is over for many Cebuano's since its going to open its branch in Cebu.  Just like food chains such as Jonie's , Kenny Rogers, Go Nut's Donuts to name a few, Krispy Kreme is now invading Cebu.  

I was not too amazed by their doughnut because I am an avid fan of Dunkin Donut.  Just like any person, one would want to taste what people are talking about.  My first taste of Krispy Kreme was when I was in Manila and I haven't event tried their original glazed.  The first doughnut I purchased would be the Peanut butter and Kreme  doughnut , and yes, I can say it does taste great.

Me and my friend Dhory wouldn't want to be like the other people who flock on the day of the opening which is last October 22, 2011.  We went there days after the people were crazy waiting in line just to get a box of donuts.

When we passed by I.T. Park, we decided to have our snacks there.  There weren't a lot of people maybe because of the time that we are in there or maybe we had our luck.  We lined up and even got a look of how the doughnut was made.  When it was our turn to choose, we opt to have original glaze, kremey chillers and pull apart.


                                              

                                                    

When we went to our table, someone served us free original glaze.  I'm not quite sure why they did that but I guess it's just one of their promotion.






We were glad we were able to try the Krispy Kreme here in Cebu.  I guess Cebuano's could say, "It was worth the wait ". 


Kusina Uno


Kusina Uno is one of the restaurants that you would find in Mabolo, near our office.  

Abuhan Uno has similar foods with this restaurant.  They said that staffs there now moved to this place.  

I haven't tried Abuhan Uno but I have ate at this restaurant twice and it's really delicious.

The prices are also affordable.  

Their most famous dish is the Pochero and you really got to try it.


Below are pictures from my first time at the restaurant.

This is my second time to eat at the restaurant and this time, it's time to eat the famous Pochero but it's the sizzling one.

Razons



Razons is one of the famous family business in Pampanga.   They are known for their Halo-halo.  Their halo-halo has only three ingredients - leche flan, macapuno and sweetened banana.    It is so unusual to eat such halo-halo since we are so used to the many ingredients in it.
Aside from the halo-halo, they also serve dishes such as pancit, bangus and many more.  They even have delicacies that you could purchase.
The business expanded to different places in Metro Manila until they have decided to have it here in Cebu. 


I got to try my first Razon halo-halo when my friend Agnes brought me to their store in Cebu which is located at the North Reclamation Area near SM City.

I was not amazed since it has little ingredients however it's still delicious. It's worth a try.

Aside from having a branch near SM, they opened another one near the Mandaue Coliseum.

After a game of badminton with my friends, Tanya and Dhory, we decided to grab a snack.

We decided to have it in Razons since it's near.

We decided to have the famous halo-halo and also pancit canton.  










The foods would really fill up your empty stomach after a game.


Kuya J's and Coffee Cat

Another food trip that our team had.  It's not just an ordinary day because its a birthday celebration of two of our team mates - Leo and Bella. The first one is turning 24 and the latter is turning 19.

It's my first time to hear about this restaurant. It's located in 0394 Orchid St. Capitol Site, 6000 Cebu City, Philippines. Their food is very affordable and it has a good ambiance.

My Team


After having lunch, we decided to just chill around.  We had Coffee Cat in mind.  It's located in IT Park.
It serves coffee and other pastries.




Casa Verde


Casa Verde is one of the famous restaurants in Cebu.  It is known for it's baby back ribs.
Casa Verde has 3 branches in Cebu which is located in Ramos, I.T Park and Ayala Center.


My first taste of the baby back ribs was way back in February after I attended a concert at the Waterfront.
Yes, I was amazed by how big the Brian's baby back ribs is.  I couldn't finish it in one sitting.


Since my team has won a lot of Sodexo from different metrics that we passed on, we decided to have our team social / team lunch at Casa Verde.






After our duty, we then headed to Casa Verde.  As we checked out the menu, we all together decided to have the Brian's baby back ribs and for our side dish, the Big Bang Burger. 






While the baby back ribs are slowly served to our table, we had a lot of picture taking moments and also our small talks with the team.  We laughed at each other's jokes and listen to different stories. 

When the food was served, you would be able to see that the rice isn't enough for the food.  You could really have an extra rice for it.





While we were eating a sumptuous meal, our side dish was served.  It's really a huge burger. I don't think only one person could finish this big burger.  It's around 5 or 6 people that could finish this burger.  We ordered 2 so that all of us could have a taste of it.





We were really full on that lunch treat and we enjoyed each other's company.  So before we leave, we had a team picture.
