Lenovo launched several new products at the Olio Restaurant, Crossroads, Cebu (To read about the Lenovo Product Launch Click HERE). Located in Crossroads, Banilad, Olio provides a place for people of every age to gather and share an excellent meal and great conversations.

At the Launch we had Medium Well Steak for the main course and I forgot the appetizer which was also accompanied with Bread.

Olio restaurant is one of the finest restaurants in town because of its unique and stylish ambience, provides coziness and also privacy to its guests. Olio opens Mondays through Sundays. For reservations, you may call 232-3589.

Olio is well suited for a cool drink after work, a quick and satisfying lunch, a night out with friends, after dinner cocktails or a hearty meal with your family.


The Product Launch in Olio was experienced by some print, TV and online Media, half of which were bloggers from Cebu Bloggers Society. 

The overall atmosphere at Olio is pleasantly relaxed and cool, that is a welcome place to all. Fine dining service at its best! But don't forget to bring lots of cash with you, its a little Price to Pay for FINE DINING!

Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant

Why Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant? Cause they serve BIG, seriously! If you have a big appetite and probably a big stomach capacity then this place (Bigby's Cafe and Restaurant) is for you!


I finally spent my Bigby's GC (Gift Certificate) that I got almost a year ago. This time I treated 2 of my YMA-mates Janna and Lulurdie for a chow-down at Bigby's SM City Cebu - Northwing.

Cellphone: "Beepx2" ; Janna: "Wut..?" ; Lulurdie: "Too much Food..."

This is the Fisherman's Catch - Seafood plate

Another view of Fisherman's Catch which is good for 4 people

The Fisherman's Catch plate contains a tortilla-crusted dory fish, squiggly rings and two sticks of pre-grilled boomerang shrimps. This is served with rice as well.

Triple Crunch Platter

Another plate from the menu that we ordered was the Triple Crunch Platter which was supposedly good for (4). If my memory serves me right the platter is a combination of tic-tac-rols, nachos, and sweet onion loops. While eating, Bigby's interior design and ambiance makes the whole experience homey as well. See bellow:

Here's a look of the place's Cool, homey environment and lighting

Interior Design and awesome Lighting fixtures

So if you read above and based from what we ordered, 3 people ordered food good for 8 people, so go figure!! HAHAHAHA Hopefully, there will be more Big Eats at Bigby's Cafe & Restaurant next time so I can devour more of there sumptuous palate!

Golden Cowrie Socialization

Our team had our first outing or socialization in our workplace. I think it was just my second time to step foot in that Golden Cowrie restaurant branch. Any way I had a great "short" time nonetheless.



We had ordered some 3 dishes: Crispy Pata (I think), fried tuna, and some soup (damnit I forgot the name!) and some iced tea plus rice.



I didn't like really like the fried tuna thing despite looking tasty. (note to self: tuna should be cooked like other seafood are cooked - whatever that means).



I just munched on the only meat dish and of course the soup. I'm not really good at remembering things that I've eaten for the first time but rest assured next time I'll definitely take notes.

Harbour City Dimsum Treat

Harbour City Dimsum has changed over the years due to the changing of times. The Harbour City Dimsum I knew was a restaurant, noisy but with class. These days, Harbour City Dimsum is still named a restaurant but due to increasing competition and the emergence of Fast foods they had to adapt.

Even though the restaurant has changed over the years, i still like the chinese food they serve. Personally I would prefer the previous Harbour City Dimsum restaurant layout and designs but know its a bit livelier but maybe it was a suggestion from the customers to change there presentation.



Any way, my favorite sio mai to chow down is usually my big three: Mushroom, Plain and Quail Eggs sio mai. And the usual thing my family eat are those and some times shrimp sio mai with lumpia, sweet and sour pork/chicken/fish. Whenever I eat dimsum, I always remember my family and my past, it is just so nostalgic.



And this time around I went with friends and was treated in Harbour City Dimsum, SM City Cebu by Sinjin! Thanks B-day Boy and together with Mikyu (B-day Girl), Clado, Prince and Atty. Ethelbert.

UCC Cafe Treat

The first time I got to step foot or eat in UCC Cafe was during the CBS first events committee meeting, and now we get to stay and chill again during our secret people's meeting! It's a secret so I can't tell you, but what I can tell and show you is the UCC Cafe and what we indulged for our stomachs.



We had there lemonade water thing, and I had some sort of mocha shake thing..sorry I am bad w/ names or maybe i'm just getting really really old or having a memory lapse, who knows but UCC did a great job making it since I was satisfied.



I'll definitely come back to UCC to try more of their wonderful cuisine and beverages!
