D' Original Razon's

Cebu has been raining for days, and then suddenly Mr Sun appears with a vengeance and then in a minute it rains again. The weather is making me sick, making Little S and Pangs sick.... grrrr....

But when I crave for something to eat, I don't rely on whether the weather is fitting for that particular food, like few nights ago when it was cloudy and cold and yet I craved for Halo Halo. No bad weather is going to stop me from having my halo halo. So off we went, Me, Pangs, My Mother of pearl, my nephew Kuya I and my baby Little S, to D' Original Razon's at Mandaue.

D' Original Razon's originated from Pampanga, is known for their Halo Halo and Special Palabok. I've tried their Halo Halo twice and I love it. Their Halo Halo is not the usual kind, it has lots of Macapuno, Nangka, Jackfuit and top with a Leche Flan instead of the usual scoop of Icecream. It's more of a "Binignit" in taste served cold. The ice is really really fine, you won't feel any chunks.

I can't say I'd ditch the usual Halo Halo, I still  love Chowking's, Ice Castle's and Wanna Eat's Halo halo but definitely this different kind, Razon's offer is "IN" for me, and my whole crew.

Halo Halo for 69 Pesos.

The two rascals wasn't really in for the newly introduced Halo Halo so Kuya I opted for Tacos

While Little S got her all time Favorite "Ah kim" (icecream) in Mango flavor for  25 Pesos.

 I think they have three branches already. One is at Ayala, the other one I read somewhere is near Fuente Osmena and the third branch is this one at Mandaue.

Oh and also you should try their Fresh Bangus that's already been marinated, all you do is buy and fry. Lami kaayo. I'm even going there today to buy a few... After all the ham and lechon eating makes me crave for Bangus.

Wanna Eat

It was scouring hot in Cebu for the past weeks. Specifically last long weekend, when me, hubby and the little one can bond. I remembered a nice cozy place I saw beside Pan de Manila in IT park when I happened to hanged out with some friends. I didn't get the name of the food chain that time, but the colors of the interiors caught my eyes and I wanted to visit and try out the place.

PERFECT! We didn't know where to go that day and the vibrant colors of the place didn't leave my mind. The hubby was up to trying something new. So off we go.

When we got there, I already had a positive feeling with all the pink and sweet interiors and Little S loved it too. There is something familiar with the place, ah... i knew it...  Living in Cebu all my life, I couldn't be wrong this is McJoy, My Joy and now changed to Wanna Eat. It's not only the name that is new, it also houses the pizza parlor–Brasco Pizza and the coffee shop–Butterbean, making it a 3-in 1 resto.

Since it was particularly hot that day, we indulge ourselves with our all time favorite HALO HALO

Little S wanted some cake, I ordered Taco, and hubby had hungarian sausage. Before leaving the counter the cashier asked me to draw a paper from the fishbowl that read "pork belly"... Yep free pork belly for us. I love their pork belly, when I was pregnant I can eat 3 My Joy pork belly meals... ( don't judge me, I was eating for 2)

We went home full and satisfied with their food and already planning to go back to try the rest of their yummy food. So expect an update on this post.

Til Next Time :)
