I don't know why it's called Torch, by the way. I never asked and maybe I should have because it has become my number one go-to place for awesome steaks.<br />

Before everything else, has your mother ever told you that in order to gauge the overall cleanliness of a house/resto/whatever, just look at their comfort room?<br />

Well the story was.. Marge (really pretty girl) asked Aisa (my pretty girl) to bring me to that food event (technically not a plus one here anymore. ahem.) Sat with awesome people. Ate a few pounds of melt-in-your-mouth goodness. Proceeded to Nick Automatic anniversary to support our good friend Niche. Got a free shirt from Niche. Went home floating in good vibes. Great food + Awesome company often does that to people.<br />

For people who aren't easily awed by history and stuff, staring at rocks for three days might not be such a good idea. If you leave us in places like Angkor Wat, you might find us open mouthed and drooling. The Sanga and I would always wonder who walked those walls, where they slept, what they did for fun.. those sort of things.<br />

Since this is a vacation after all, I built a 'chill' itinerary. More time for ourselves and to discover the place on our own. No pressure at all. I didn't want to have to drag Aisa out of bed. She's really really not a morning person.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Day 1:</b><br />
<br />
<b>- Angkor National Museum ($12 each for the entrance + $3 for audio guide)</b><br />
I would suggest going here first before going to the temples. You won't need a tour guide once you've been here. They'll explain pretty much everything about the temples.<br />

<b>- War Museum ($5 each. Gave additional for donation)</b><br />
The tour guide is actually a war veteran. He joined the army when he was 14. Lost more than his limbs. He lost friends and family in that war.<br />

<b>Day 3:</b><br />
Tuktuk $15 + tip. Airport fare $4<br />
There are 'short tour' options. Just ask your concierge. For our short tour, the <b>tuktuk rental was $15</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>- Silk farm (free entrance)</b><br />
The silk farm was nothing new. It was cute though and it's for free so you might as well go there. We learned a thing or two.<br />

<br />
<b>Things to remember and try out :</b><br />
- Don't forget your umbrella and sunblock. Death by roasting.<br />
- Most menu prices are around $5 per dish. But there are some restos that have food at $3 or lower.<br />
- Tuktuk fare is just $2 per way. Some drivers would ask for $3. Don't give in. Parang plus 50php lang yan sa mga cab drivers naten dito.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Over all, I love Cambodia. I love how laid back it is. The kind of laid back where you can actually fall asleep mid-chew at any restaurant. Oh, which reminds me, don't order soup.

I wasn't able to blog last night because The Ipac was stuck to computer again. Well, I do understand how attached she is to the damned thing. Anyway, lemme tell you about the details first<br />
.<br />
Airfare was 5,520php each by Cebu Pacific. Not bad actually. Considering it's usually at 6kphp one way. Their airport looks like a mini temple. Cute!<br />

We're staying at <a href="http://goldenmangoinn.com/" target="_blank">Golden Mango Inn</a>. I do like how cute and quaint it is. It doesn't hurt that it's cheap too! Check out their website. It's pretty detailed and it ranks number 4 on TripAdvisor!<br />

What I don't like about it is that we have to go barefoot inside. I have a thing against it. I can eat fried crickets and other weird stuff but I hate going barefoot. My skin just crawls. I dunno why. I had to hold my pee for 30 minutes while they sorted out the paperwork because I didn't want to go barefoot in their common bathroom. I'd rather drown in my own pee and die of kidney failure. Of course I couldn't tell them that so I just sucked it up and tiptoed everywhere.<br />

Our room was pretty good though. Very spacious huh! Plus I got a hold of my slippers so its back to being a happy camper/tourist.<br />
<br />
Anyway, we got hungry and decided to explore the world outside. I don't think they've ever seen a lesbo before because the guys at the next table kept staring at me. Heh. Bleh.<br />
<br />
I'm waiting for The Ipac to wake up. I want her to have enough rest. I don't want to have to carry her if she faints. And then we're off to do touristy stuff.<br />
Let's see how our first day in Cambodia goes. So far, the morning has been a delight and a bit painful (for me). A grasshopper decided it was fun to poke me in the eye at 8 in the morning.acheronhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13791986732205689988noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843972815123452976.post-11749212917737532362012-11-14T22:39:00.000-08:002012-11-14T22:39:51.440-08:00Nolita!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Quickie post before we head out to the airport for Cambodia! I'm so excite to get my "Lara Croft" groove on. Hmm. That sounded weird. Anywayyyyy..<br />
<br />
I was going to talk about Nolita! It's a (relatively) new restaurant at the Fort BGC. The food is actually pretty good. No shivers! Except for the price. It might be a bit pricey but still worth trying out.<br />

It was another of Aisa's events so I decided to stay some place and read my books. I was looking for a place to hangout in at SM North, The Block. I checked out Soya Bar's menu and was immediately attracted to their green tea cheese mousse and rock salt product. Everybody has this on their menu these days.<br />

So I took out my phone (Ebooks. No more bulky books. But, sometimes, I do miss the smell of new books.). Appreciated the view of my chosen seat. And settled in for a pretty good afternoon in another place created by the author's imagination.<br />

It looked okay. I took a tentative sip. And shivered. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak. Seriously.<br />
I tried my best to drink at least half (kc sayang ang pera ko dibaaa) but I can't. I just can't. I couldn't touch it again. My skin crawls at the thought of it touching my lips. No. NO! Not even with someone pointing a gun at my head. It is a fate worse than death. Mixing green tea and soya milk should be punishable by law. It's a crime against humanity and my taste buds.<br />
<br />
I'm sure their 'taho' products are pretty good. The kids there seemed to like it. They even demanded for seconds!<br />
<br />
But please. Do not order this one. Ever. Unless you like to be tortured. <br />
<br />
So, I crawled to Sugarhouse while having my twitch fest. Epileptic seizures. I had to eat 6 yema balls to stop twitching.<br />

These on the other hand were lifesavers. Over priced at 15 each (130 for 8pcs) but a lifesaver.<br />

If 'Thai cuisine' were human, I think they would actually already have been married with little thai's running around.<br />
<br />
When Thai Bistro opened at Robinsons Magnolia, naturally Aisa had to drag me there. The first time we ate there, we spent 2,500php and filled 2 tables with food. Yeah. Kami lang dalawa. It feels like a mini fiesta whenever I dine with her. <br />
<br />
Here's what we ate the second time around,<br />

Despite the sexist horror stories I've heard, I'd still like to go there someday (if only the Great Pax of the Fashion World would come with me - it might take 5 more years of bribery before she actually sets foot there).<br />
<br />
Anyway, I love spicy Indian food so I decided to treat myself for lunch. December is my cheat month so I have the excuse to eat as much as I like. That means "Swagat" time! There are a few posh Indian restaurants (with really really Indian chefs - seen them in action kc chismosa me) but this one is cheaper than most.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It does not seem farfetched though since I'm currently addicted to it. My drug pusher (the ass of an officemate who gave me 4 teeny weeny packets of tea) says its 'The Champagne of Teas'. I'm gonna have to agree with him since most teabags now tastes like horse pee by comparison. It smells like flowers. I could just smell it the whole day. And it has a sweet aftertaste.

I finished a bag of Goldilocks polvoron a few minutes ago. There were bits of cashew nuts in it so it has to be healthy, right?<br />

Last night, we met up with some Cebu blogger friends at The Borough (Podium Ortigas - behind Megamall) to feast and make chika.<br />
<br />
I've been eyeing 'The Elvis' for some time now but I never got to order it since 'The Ipac' doesn't like bananas. Since we were there just for desserts, I ordered our regular Milk and Cookies for her + The Elvis for me. You should also try their Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Tomato Soup. Yum!<div><br />

<br />
We've been to everywhere since the last post and we didn't even share. Blow me! Umm.. Boo me!! <br />
<br />
Good news is that I've recently gotten my hands on an iPod touch + blogger app. Its such a pretty little thing noh? Since it's easier to post stuff, I have absolutely no excuse anymore.<br />
<br />
From now on, we're going to share our food trips as well. I think food == travel. I mean, I've been wanting to go to China just to see if their siopao tastes better or to Taiwan just to see if their tea would give me teagasms. Soo... From manong squidball around the corner to that Japanese guy who makes wicked Katsu! We will blog and by God you will hear about it.

We took a bus (Victory Liner-Cubao) to Iba for more or less P320 before hopping on another bus heading to Candelaria. The bus to Candelaria costs P86. The trip took 7 hours! You don't have to worry about food though. Pinoys have food stands every 5 centimeters. If there's one race that is afraid to starve to death, it would be Filipinos. Unless you are picky about the food, there's no need to worry. Or you could just stock up on your favorite snack.<br /><br />We got to Trinidad Bay Resort at around 5 pm. At around 6:30 we left Alta Nina resort, got on a banca going to Potipot Island. The banca costs more than P1k (but not more than P1.5k) for the round trip.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq4BnrJzwpp0rwSi9oiOJ5LiA5UqPDal5_auHYFoKaFi78XE2iz2rLQPExo-I4MSiLF96t_NpJ_AfBEEomZ__g4pd_IBuvMi68yBH5j96b7vm488kjlqV5gkugB-Y0iFpTBKNtaZa27js/s1600-h/th_IMG_7955.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq4BnrJzwpp0rwSi9oiOJ5LiA5UqPDal5_auHYFoKaFi78XE2iz2rLQPExo-I4MSiLF96t_NpJ_AfBEEomZ__g4pd_IBuvMi68yBH5j96b7vm488kjlqV5gkugB-Y0iFpTBKNtaZa27js/s320/th_IMG_7955.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425665537319086754" border="0" /></a>(rocks -- at the tip of the island. don't worry. the rest of the island is pretty much accident-free)<br /><br /></div>You have the option to stay on the island overnight for just P100. We have a perfectly good hotel but we opted to stay there so that we'll have first dibs on the beach. You are allowed to pitch your tents there.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvxN2kKdMPUqIn7ujEZNSOsdqN5sz9qUaC69OUYmdOceMU5xvlTbNB9xSGkJWLKjVLhEbTJo05OMWMTkr9BZuNeooxjMX5puvxDgqBvJL0jjBKfAEb4u8qIJn9R1ni0McyQNWKmAokybE/s1600-h/th_DSCN0002.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvxN2kKdMPUqIn7ujEZNSOsdqN5sz9qUaC69OUYmdOceMU5xvlTbNB9xSGkJWLKjVLhEbTJo05OMWMTkr9BZuNeooxjMX5puvxDgqBvJL0jjBKfAEb4u8qIJn9R1ni0McyQNWKmAokybE/s320/th_DSCN0002.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425665553094308946" border="0" /></a><br />There were comfort rooms and mini stores that sell ice cold beverages. We just didn't see them until we left - mostly because our only source of light at night was a couple of flashlights. So bring lamps! And some coal to cook your food with. Personally, I would have preferred to buy some fast food so that I won't stress myself with grilling and stuff. We grilled our food and ended up burning them (no lights = goodbye decent dinner).<br /><br />Going home, we just waited for the bus for Iba on their highway. You can just ask around. They only have one main road and one bus station.<br /><br />The entire trip cost us less than P2,000. Nice.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLubGmovp0wx5oecNIVZ8JV6h_ovZyP7Wi0QnehLPmSyxpMqDMxLx-0K_Ud6EX6-CjIMmS7XCZE7WPiKUKWLcESQwF9KldXTfg_Bu9E4XzJV8lEsvWwBo2zYiyNmQyjGUBvt1F2a7OVvQ/s1600-h/DSCN1919.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLubGmovp0wx5oecNIVZ8JV6h_ovZyP7Wi0QnehLPmSyxpMqDMxLx-0K_Ud6EX6-CjIMmS7XCZE7WPiKUKWLcESQwF9KldXTfg_Bu9E4XzJV8lEsvWwBo2zYiyNmQyjGUBvt1F2a7OVvQ/s320/DSCN1919.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5425665545366995458" border="0" /></a>acheronhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13791986732205689988noreply@blogger.com25tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7843972815123452976.post-41914952921422040922010-01-11T15:18:00.001-08:002010-01-11T15:20:25.057-08:00Oh Yeah!<span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Let me just say---WELCOME!
