Eat Drink
A few weeks ago, Steph and I got an invitation for a coffee and dessert pairing at 32 Umber. Perfect. Steph can’t drink coffee and I can’t have dessert. We’ll half everything.

When Zerothreetwo previously wrote about Cebu’s only cat cafe, I wasn’t thrilled because although cats are without doubt cute creatures, my heart always goes with the dogs. At home, we have six dogs!

The secret restaurants around Mactan reflect just that. Bella’s Bites Tucked between…
You already know our evident love for cafes and coffee. One of my favorite spots is Coffee Factory. Since I work near where it is situated, I am able to go there early and enjoy the place when it is less crowded. Lately, there’s barely an empty table in sight especially during the evenings. This isn’t…
