It had been several times that I’d passed by this restaurant by myself, so I’d never walked in before now — I loathe dining alone because, for me, eating out is a social activity. So on Christmas Day, I resolved to finally give it a try and brought along two blogger friends to The Cafe [...]

To all my readers, I’d like to wish you a Merry Christmas! I hope that the holidays will bring you and your family good gastronomic cheer! Yesterday, I received a delightful gift from my friends at Pepper & Peppers — an Iberian Chicken in all its fantastic deliciousness. Since my parents are away for the [...]

I remember when Marina Tuna was just a small, unassuming eatery sitting along the highway in one of the sleepy parts of Davao City. But I can also recall how much my friends and I instantly loved their cooking, especially their deep-fried tail of tuna — so crunchy on the outside yet heavenly soft and [...]

Doubtless, the most common international cuisine present in Davao is Italian. In fact, many restaurant goers here probably don’t consider tortellini or cannelloni or linguine as foreign food anymore. Much less pizza! So, another addition to Davao City’s collection of Italian restaurants is Spirale Ristorante, which opened about a couple of months ago. I was [...]

The first time I ate at Karlyn’s was in March 2007, when I had barely started blogging about food in earnest. It was one of the first restaurants that I’d blogged about. Reading my old post over at AngDabawenyo.com, I remember how impressed I was with their food. And I’m happy to say that a [...]

Doc Jaime is an Apple fanboy, and is my go-to guy for all things iPod. On his birthday, his friends got him not a cake but a box of 20 cup cakes that looked like the home screen of an iPod touch. The cup cakes were created by Emily, the Cake Monster. On her site, [...]

I have always loved Mediterranean food. And I am a food blogger who uses WordPress. Imagine my delight seeing a video blog post of Mr. WordPress himself, cooking a Greek delicacy! It’s called Tsatziki — a cucumber-garlic-yogurt dip that’s great with pita bread or even good ol’ Doritos.

One year ago on this day, I installed WordPress and published my first post on Davao Delicious, my baby blog. And what a precocious baby it’s turned out to be! To my delight, DavaoDeli.com has done rather impressively in its first 12 months. It was the star of the Davao bloggers’ food trips in the [...]

Finally in Davao! A Persian restaurant worth its salt! Khash Persian Kabab Resto Bar, owned and operated by Persians, no less. Iranians, I mean. One of them, Mehdi, hosted a dinner for a small group of bloggers last Thursday: Chattee, Jaime, Andrew, Lyle, Brendel and me. The food is not on the level of Ziggurat [...]

They first made themselves known to Dabawenyos along J.P. Laurel Avenue, across from Landco Corporate Centre, beside Petron. Not long after, people began talking about their fantastic Filipino fare. Then they transferred to the Pryce Business Park, beside another gas station, curiously enough. Can•teen (tagline: hauz of paksiw na buntot ng bariles) prides itself in [...]

I was cleaning up my digital photo albums, and I found some food shots that I’d never gotten to use in any of my restaurant features. So here they are… Not all of them have titles / names, so if you’d like to try and guess what they are or where they were taken, have [...]

I’ve been getting requests to write about caterers in Davao, so here’s something. One catering outfit that I’d recommend without hesitation is Leandro’s. They’ve been around for a long time now, and many families and companies trust their reliable services. I’ve used them a couple of times in the past, and I was satisfied with [...]
