Looking for freshly cooked pasta and brick-oven pizza that will not hurt your budget?  

Ravioli is basically a filled pasta served in sauce or even broth.  This is cool when you want to break away from your usual spaghetti, macaroni, penne or lasagna.  


We ate at Mall of Asia branch.  They have two other branches, at Glorietta 3 and Robinson's Place Ermita.  

• Taste: 5 stars - There's nothing else I can say.  Perfect pasta, sauce and filling.  
• Serving & Presentation:  5 stars - If I'm not mistaken, there were 9 pieces of ravioli on each serving.  Good for sharing! :)
• Value:  5 Stars - Its really affordable.  All Ravioli dishes cost 210 php.  

• Taste: 5 stars - I know this is a simple type of pizza, but I was really surprised how it tasted that good. :)  The crust was soft, you'll even love eating it as is.   Noticed that black spots?  Cooking pizza in a brick oven really has a flavorful effect.  The tomato was so juicy and not dry.  The basil added a little Italian flavor.  
• Serving & Presentation: 5 stars - They serve 12 inch pizza.  This can be consumed by 3 tummies at most. :P
• Value: 5 stars - Pizza price varies by flavor.  This one is the cheapest, most expensive is the Italian Sausage and Bacon.

Five Cows resto is famous for their mouthwatering ice cream and desserts.  But for now, lets check out one of their rice meals and pastas.

I ordered an Apple shake, but I did not like it that much.  I think it didn't contain milk, just purely apple.  

• Taste: 4 stars - Good enough.  White sauce was really nice and the rice with basil was really delicious.
• Serving & Presentation: 4 stars - The fillet was a bit small, but they're generous on rice.  :)
• Value: 3 stars - I suggest for you guys to just try their other dishes if you really want to fill up your tummy.

• Taste: 4 stars - Almost perfectly yummy, but tasted a bit plain.
• Serving & Presentation: 4 stars - Good for one hungry tummy.
• Value: 3 stars - I think pasta is not their specialty, but worth the try though.

I came by Etude last Sunday at their Market Market branch and looked for something that I can use to control that extra shine on my face.  I thought about buying oil-control films.  That's the fastest and most foolproof way.  But then...

Mine is not that oily, actually its a bit dry.  But still, we cannot avoid those "oily moments" specially during summer.  

How to use?

Option 1: Under makeup

1. Before applying any makeup, spray all over the face.  

2. Wait to dry and you can start applying makeup.


Option 2: Over makeup

1. When you feel that there's a need to retouch your makeup, spray all over the face.
  
2. Wait to dry then, you can apply your face powder or foundation.

REMINDER: Don't spray too close/too near from face.  You might feel a slight burning sensation.


This mist basically absorbs oil but keeps your face moisturized.  Its like a primer for makeup.  Its not that super effective, I give it 3 out of 5.  For me, its best used for option 1 above.  For option 2, you can go for oil-control films.  I just love it because its a bit refreshing.


What do you think?

Burp Guide goes to Singapore... HAHA! :P  This is my second post on my food tripping in SG.  

This Food Republic branch in Vivo City looked super nice.  The interior was kinda old China town for me. :)  

Food trip, mall hopping, cable car ride, shopping and night life... say hello to my second day in Singapore.

I really insisted to ride the bus and MRT.  We headed to Plaza Singapura and bought Charles & Keith shoes!  :)  I love SALE!

I spent my Christmas vacation slash company shutdown in Singapore... BIG thanks to Poy!  :)

It was my first international flight and I didn't know what to do actually...HAHA!  It was a long two hour flight for me since I was alone.  All I did was... SLEEP...PLAY on my iPhone...SLEEP...PLAY on my iPhone...




First meal... Burger King!  We headed home, wait... I can't remember the exact place.  Hmm.. its around Little Road, near Tai Seng Station, Oasis Garden condo.  Did I get it right?! :P




Its just so huge!  You'll love every corner inside!  Prepare your feet and legs because you will be walking and walking...HAHA!  


First zone... Ancient Egypt.  First ride... Revenge of the Mummy.  It is a high speed indoor roller coaster with super cool effects.  I almost died here.  I really did not expect that it would be that...ahm... scary.  But don't mind me, I'm really a coward for such rides...HAHA!  Don't miss this when you visit USS. :)


Moving on to Madagascar zone, my favorite!  I was excited to see Alex!  HAHAHA... :P
Enjoy the river boat ride with the Madagascar gang!
