P's Life Spices

If you're looking for a buffet place in Cebu with tasty Filipino cuisine, perfect ambience and at a good price point, then Sugbufé is the place for you.  Not to mention, they serve Lechon every dinner - now that's definitely a plus, especially if you have guests visiting from outside of Cebu. We, Filipinos, really love our bonding time with the whole family - I mean, literally the entire family, especially during special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries, so it's unlikely that we celebrate alone.  A great option for these events is to go a buffet place where we could say goodbye to our diet for a while an indulge in good food.  But really, most of us don't have the luxury to eat at a buffet place where most of the menu are our favorites and wouldn't hurt our pockets. Luckily, we found this buffet place that serves local cuisine, which has good reviews, price worthy and serves lechon.  Yes, you read it right, lechon.  Who doesn't crave fo

Hidden in the mountain part of Lahug, Cebu City, is Kalaw Resto+Bar.  We wanted to eat somewhere new and exciting, and luckily we found this amazing place.  We knew about this restaurant through a post from a family friend, and it literally drew us curious, especially if you have a kid who loves to see animals.

This friendly bird is so adorable.   Here is another photo of my mom with an eagle. After that amazing experience with the birds, we then wen

You're probably too stressed from work or school, yet you just don't have the budget or the time for another vacation outside of Cebu. This was the same thought our family had when we were planning for our mom's birthday. Everybody only had half a day to de-stress and celebrate. Good thing our mom heard of a newly opened botanical garden, which was what she really wanted in the first place. Another botanical garden option would be Sirao Flower Garden, but it's just a bit further from the city for us. There are a few good places in Busay to visit to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city life; you have the Temple of Lea, Mountain View Nature Park, Tops Lookout. But we went ahead and opted to go to Terrazas de Flores and to Kalaw Resto + Bar for dinner. Arriving to the place was a breath of fresh air to say the least. It was stunning. It's said to have more than 100 species of flowers; that's so astonishing. It took years of building this
