Wada's Place - Batangas City

So here it is, Wada's Pizzeria, a new resto in Zenaida Arcade at M.H. Del Pilar Street. The first branch we saw of this was in Lipa City and when we saw it here, we really waited for it to open. So this day come..

We were there lunch time, so not much of people are dining. The place is not yet finished, only one ceiling fan in the center, no air condition yet. Be careful when you sit, the chairs are kind of slippy on the tiles :)

By that time, pasta and pizza are the only menu available  so no choice, no rice for lunch hehe. We ordered the Linguine Carbonara (P65), but the actual pasta is not linguine when served. Honestly, we were disappointed by this one. It tasted just like a plain pasta. The sauce has no taste at all, can't even taste the cream or milk.

So we tried next the Spaghetti Bolognese. It turns out its also an ordinary spaghetti, no taste to wow us. But for the price(P60) I think it's fine.

And then last is the pizza, Wada's Classic Steak Pizza, with toppings of meat, cheese and white onions. It is a thin crust. Also not a special one, and to our dismay, the crust is so toasted that when you eat it, the crusts are left behind. I think it would be better to make the dough soft to compliment for the taste. They have their Italian Pizza, but not available by that time.

We also  ordered Mocha Brownie Fudge (P35) and Chicken Strips (60)

Cups and Jiggers

So after our dinner at Nung Ru Thai, we agreed to have a coffee at Cups and Jiggers. It's also a new 

restaurant here in Batangas City. They serve cakes, pasta, sandwiches, some appetizers and also beer :)

Luckily, that night they had a band playing. As far as I can remember, their band schedules are Wednesday,

Friday and Saturday. 

And after a week, we came back and tried some of their pasta. We ordered spicy chicken and seafood marinara. Also we tried their tuna sandwich and coffee shake. Between the two pasta, I prefer the seafood pasta because the spicy chicken have peanuts in it (something like the charlie chan chicken pasta of yellow cab).There are lots of food to try, and so we shall try it some other time ;)

Nung Ru Thai

The first Thai restaurant in Batangas that I know of, Nung Ru Thai. So my bebe and I decided to give

it a try. It was my birthday, so we invited our friends Ervin and Brian to join us. 

We are greeted by a cheerful lady, which we think is the owner of the restaurant. The place looks 

very clean, with touch of some 'thai' in it. There are some pictures hanging on the wall and some golden

decors. So immediately, we asked for the menu. There are lots of food in the list, but we still go with 

the rice meal and decided to try the curry-based next time. 

Forgot the name of some of the foods we ordered, but here are some pictures :)

This is one of their appetizers, they called it spring rolls

pad thai

This could have been good for 4 person :)

Dr. Pepper Squid if im not mistaken

La Tienda 2nd time

Casa Marikit

My girlfriend and I are looking for a place where we can dine and celebrate our 2nd Year Anniversary. And then she remembered that she once saw an Italian Restaurant, Casa Marikit, at Banay-Banay Concepcion, Lipa City. So we've decided to give it a try.

The place is so quite and peaceful when we arrived. There are only a couple at that moment. We love the classy atmosphere, with some classic music playing at the background.

There really are lots of choices, we really can't decide hehe. But since we just came from a Christening Party, and we ate lots of meat, we decided to opt for a seafood menu.



I dont know what it's called but it taste good :)



Fettucini Marinara in White Sauce.



It's the first time we ordered a Marinara in white sauce, so we're excited to taste it. Infairness, the seafood can be tasted in the sauce. They would say that this would be good for 1-2 person, but I think its just for solo.



Quattro Formaggi

Then our pizza arrived. It is a four cheese, sliced into 8. It's crust is thin. And nothing to expect but cheese.

Some pictures taken at Casa Marikit :

Its a good thing we tried Casa Marikit. They also have there steaks and angus beef, but since we are really not a fan of those, we surely will comeback to try other pasta and pizza.
