TOP TOURIST SPOT IN RIZAL PHILIPPINES | MASUNGI GEORESERVE

ABBEY: This is one of the places I planned to visit when I went back to Philippines. I was captivated by its karst landscapes. You need to book and pay a fee of Php 1500. The Masungi Georeserve will contact you to confirm your reservation. We chose Discovery Trail as our path.  We were there as early as 5AM. We don’t want our guide and the reserve to wait for us. It is a good 10-minute walk from the carpark to the reception area. This is a good time to take in the beauty of nature overlooking the city.  The highlights of our trail are the “net” works or webbings. We got ourselves climbing them; worth the effort once you reach the top; like Sapot ni Rick and Yungib ni Ruben. You’ll just be awed for what nature has to offer. Be ready mentally and physically as the trail is challenging. Bring water and change of clothes.  The fee comes with light refreshments.  TOP TOURIST SPOT IN RIZAL PHILIPPINES | MASUNGI GEORESERVE - Arch Bridge  TOP TOURIST SPOT IN RIZAL PHILI...

BEST All You Can Eat Dinner Buffet in Manila Philippines - Spiral Buffet Review

ABBEY:   The first time we went to Spiral Buffet I admit I don’t know much about other cuisines. And I’m not keen on exploring. I stick to what I know and I assume what’s delicious; Filipino foods like sinigang, mechado, pork belly, tempura or anything fried. I felt during that time that it’s worth for what I paid for. Little did I know that there’s a big food world out there. So we prepared for a second visit; this time armed with Php3900 and knowledge about what to eat and try at the restaurant. I had lamb, sausages, curacha, sashimi, grilled squid, prawns, dumplings, roast beef, and butter chicken. I even curated my own charcuterie board with aged cheddar, salami, gouda pesto cheese. Our dessert is choco and vanilla ice cream, bibingka and puto bumbong.  Now I can say that I redeemed myself “against” Spiral Buffet. No tables were unturned. Haha.

The Newest Sheraton in Manila Philippines - Sheraton Manila Hotel 2022 Review

ABBEY: Sheraton Manila Hotel is one of the new hotels in Pasay City. This is where we stayed for the night with my father and we’re upgraded to the highest floor. In the lift lobby you can see the planes at NAIA Terminal 3. The check-in process was almost smooth except that we need to wait for a couple more minutes than the usual as there is less staff during that time. Our room is spacious and clean with the view of the pool. We spent the afternoon at the pool as the jacuzzi is already booked. They also have these bubble-like hubs near it for you to dine in. We hit the gym in the morning before having our breakfast. For morning meal, I enjoyed longganisa, eggs, tapa as well as bacon with garlic fried rice. We would like to commend Therese for accommodating us.

The Secret Patio's Mad Hatter's Tea Party

ABBEY: An “Have I gone Mad”-themed pop-up was setup at The Secret Patio @ Duxton. It was their take at Alice in Wonderland. For SGD 39.9 per person (minimum of 2) you’ll be able to reserve a table. You will be greeted by the smell of croissants and you can see playing cards, flowers, butterflies, colorful cups and checkerboard-covered tables in mats; just like in the Madhatter’s tea party. We got savoury croissants (triple cheese with chicken ham and mushroom) as well the sweet ones (almond and hazelnut cruffin). Along with that we got tea and cold dark chocolate drinks. I thought all the food were included in the reservation payment but it is not. The drinks have to be paid separately.

Oscar Head Spa for Only $58 for 2 Hour Hair & Scalp Treatment Spa and No Hard Selling - With FREE Mini High Tea

ABBEY: Heard about head massage? How about head spa? If not, “head” now to Oscar Head Spa. I didn’t know it’s possible to get all these treatments for the head; massage, shampoo, deep cleaning, head spray and steam. Aside from those I got neck and shoulder massages, face and eye seaweed mask, and tummy and knee compress. It was really relaxing and definitely you get a good nap during the session. After the treatments, we had high tea that includes cake, oreo, and fruits. I would like to commend Irene for giving great service. A bit pricey for non-promotional package but worth it.

So why not have a massage that is focusing on your head and scalp. Now, head and scalp massage is the new thing here in Singapore and I think, Oscars is one of the pioneers for it.  Salons that offers this...
