Treat Yourself Right


crazy queue

It has been a tradition that every summer, there is some cold food trend that comes out and pops up every where like fungus. Haha. Not a good comparison, but it was the first thing that came to mind. A couple summers back, it was this shake thing with tapioca in it and, last summer, it was snow cups with the craziest amounts of toppings on it. I have to say though, that this summer has to be my most favourite trend, FROZEN YOGURT!



I have loved yogurt for the longest time ever... but could never find amazing FROZEN yogurt here in the Philippines. The past coupleof months, however, different frozen yogurt establishments have been popping up here and there...but none of them made me happy (because that should be their goal, lol) until I tried RED MANGO.



Red Mango is like heaven in my mouth. Since the first time I've tried it, I have been a supporter of the stuff. It's been my opening statement to friends that I run into. I've gone as far as to have meetings there just so I could have my yummy frozen yogurt.



Aside from it being the best tasting yogurt I've had in the Philippines... it is also healthy! I normally have my original flavoured frozen yogurt topped with strawberries and coco pebbles. If the strawberries aren't available, I always mix a fruit in with a cereal. It's the most amazing combination of cold, crunchy, and sweet...perfect!



Red Mango also has green tea flavoured yogurt that I think is superb with nuts and fruits. Sigh, I think I'll visit the place again this weekend. I really can't get enough. :)



Here's what I wore the last time I was at Red Mango...


nine west shoes, topshop by moto pants, macau bag, banana rep shirt, bali bangles

PS. Find Red Mango in SM Megamall ground floor, Eastwood's new mall in the balcony area, and there's one in Trinoma...I haven't visited that one yet. Eeek.

Spinning Around.

One day, my friends and I got really bored and hungry so we headed out to eat at the best buffet ever; Spiral. It's one of those places where you can hang with your buddies and just stuff yourself silly. Which we did...to our dismay. Haha.



We made this game plan because we wanted to eat from ever country (yes, they have a station for each country). We started out with the appetizer counter which was actually a mash up of all the countries. Then we headed down to Japan, India, and so on.



On our way to China, we found out they were closing the buffet in 30 minutes. In one of my friends panic, she scooped up a plate and filled it with dumplings. A panic dumpling plate.



After eating for hours, the gluttons that we are, we decided to make our own dessert. My ice cream was mango topped with chocolate chips, syrup, gummie bears, and strawberry jam. So good. I wanted to cry at its goodness.



When we finally couldn't stuff our self anymore, we practiced our breathing. Haha. We couldn't even walk. It hurt to even roll to the side to face the person you're talking to. When we finally digested enough, we stood with our food babies and walked around.

For more information about the place, click here. You should really try it. Super amazing food.

Here's what I wore to our little food fest. Cotton, loose, black and flats is the way to go when doing a buffet. HAHA
