Goya Dark Mint Chocolate: Passionately Minty & Chocolatey


They say the best things in life are free. Well, that’s true. But they’re not always free. There are some that are cheap though — in monetary value, yet equally “best” in terms of quality in taste and in “experience”. Take for example, this new product from GoyaGoya Dark Mint. Oh, it’s not free, that’s for sure. But it will only cost you 25 pesos ( or around 34 pesos at most). This Goya Dark Mint story has been going around in the blogosphere for quite some time now. And you know what they say, “what goes around, comes around” — and so it came. Right here. Right now.

Goya Dark Mint Chocolate

Many people in Plurk and elsewhere in the blogosphere have talked, blogged and plurked about it. And i guess I’m the last to blog about it. It tastes so good for something that doesn’t cost much compared to all those famous Belgian, Swiss, Japanese chocolate brands out there. Ah, yes, it is both passionately minty and chocolatey at the same time. Good job, Goya! I’ve always loved you anyway. I grew up to your chocolates. I just didn’t realize that after tasting a lot of imported brands, I’d come home to you and feel as though I’m a kid again..only this time, it’s a different experience — a more grown-up experience. :)

Conti’s: Food and Restaurant Review


Our visit to Eugene last Saturday was followed by an early dinner at Conti’s Bakeshop and Restaurant at B.F. Homes Paranaque. It’s a small yet cozy place, has good customer service plus good and satisfying food.

Photos of food we devoured below. I ordered the house best-seller “Baked Salmon”.

Food/Restaurant Review: Tenderoast



Restaurant: Tenderoast at SM Southmall (Las Pinas)
Meal: Carver Roast Meals / Tenderoast Beef Meal
Price: 159 pesos
The Verdict:

Service: Relatively okay

Food:

  • loved the “beef soup” although it’s a bit salty
  • hated the mashed potato, too bland
  • pasty is good and a wee bit sweet
  • roast beef, just okay — though a bit salty too..
  • iced tea - usual
  • mixed veggies - bland
  • brownies - okay
  • Overall Verdict: Value for money. But then again, you get what you pay for, so don’t expect a lot.

    Will I go back there? No.
