Early this year, I had a gastronomic experience that made me say, ‘I could die now!’ But I’m not gonna die just yet… so it means I’m in trouble. See, from now on, I don’t think I could ever have sashimi again… unless it’s Class A tuna. At a Japanese home, I was served Class [...]

Lachi’s has been around for several years now, but I’ve never been there until tonight. Thanks to Ria, who brought three of “the usual suspects” to dinner, I’ve finally sampled their exquisite cooking. Ria got an item on her Christmas wish list fulfilled when Mike & Melvin Aviles, proprietors of Lachi’s, invited her and some [...]

Last night was supposed to be a get-together of The Usual Suspects and blogger friends, but there were so many things happening, and some of the TUS members weren’t around. So, it was just me with Migs, Winston, Jun (who stayed with us for just a short while), Aileen, and my old friend Rodney (who’s [...]

On a friend’s blog (he happens to be a designer), I saw this nifty WordPress plugin that lets readers leave their mark on blog posts. I thought it was a good idea to have it on Davao Delicious, too.

All of us have friends whom we look to as gods or goddesses of the kitchen. I’m lucky to have several. But the person whose cooking my friends and I adore is Bamba. Too bad that she doesn’t cook as much as before anymore, but on special occasions, we the Bamba’s-cooking-crazy friends can still count [...]

From deep forays into Italian cuisine, I ventured into the French arena this time. Too bad though, because I didn’t bring a camera (again!) when I had an intimate dinner with friends and guests at Claude’s Le Café de Ville last Wednesday. Living in Davao for many, many years now, Monsieur Claude Le Neindre has [...]

Had dinner tonight at Swiss Deli, and I must say, it was a culinary treat! I know their steaks are a sought-after item there, but lately I’ve been sticking to a fish diet, so I went for their Fillet of Mahi-Mahi (P190). Mahi-Mahi is locally called pandawan, or otherwise known as dolphin-fish. Its meat is [...]

When the Internet was still relatively young, there was a mailing list called Mindanao-L, which was owned and run by my friend, Bob Martin. It was in the days long before Yahoo!Groups or even Friendster. If I remember right, I became a member in 1996 (which was when Davao City finally got connected to the [...]

I love coffee. And that’s part of the reason why I chose this WordPress theme set. (The other reasons are technical.) However, the coffee thingie might get a tad overdone here. So, I’m going to run one TWO blog contests. Here’s how it’s gonna go down: Contest #1: This blog needs a cool, engaging, delectable [...]

I thought that it would be fitting to have Basti’s Brew as my first feature here, this coffee shop being my favorite and my usual haunt. In fact I’m right there while I blog this. As I’ve written before over at Ang Dabawenyo, Basti’s Brew Coffee Station at Victoria Plaza is probably the most successful [...]
