Red Mango Birthday

 

Red Mango Green Tea Frozen Yogurt (6 oz) (P120) with Kiwi and Strawberry Toppings (P30) 

Happy 4th Birthday, Aidan!

OAP is as old as Aidan. :) If some people like to create scrapbooks or a family photo album, we created the OAP Blog to document Aidan and Joshua's childhood adventures. 

Aidan was born on January 19, 2005. Time really goes by so fast, and my thanks go out to the OAP readers who have watched Aidan grow throughout these years.

To make his birthday special, we visited a number of places, including Manila's latest destination for frozen yogurt: Red Mango.

Le Royale Birthday

We celebrated Rache's sister's birthday last weekend. This was the perfect time to bring our favorite cake from Cake Club of Diamond Hotel.

MALACCA Authentic Malaysian Cuisine

1/12/12 UPDATE: This restaurant is now closed and replaced by IMC (International Master Chef) Kavino Lau

MALACCA is "the only authentic restaurant owned by Malaysians and Cuisine cooked by Malaysians" according to its marketing tagline. I don't usually believe in marketing gimmicks but I felt this one's for real once I tasted my Bak Kut Teh Favorite and Sambal Kangkong dish.

Yes, Bak Kut Teh has arrived in Manila! Yahoo!

 

Most of my Singaporean/Malay favorites are served in Malacca:

Adora Cafe Desserts

Isn't it so nice to go around Greenbelt 5 these days (especially with the phase 2 area connecting Greenbelt 5 to Greenbelt 1)? While we were window shopping, we decided to eat dessert in Adora Cafe inside the luxurious Adora store in Greenbelt 5.
