Stone ground grits with shrimp-sausage gravy, bacon, and green onions. $14.99
The Fremont Diner, Sonoma CA
Doesn’t this plate just look SO lovely and appetizing?! 🙂 Mmm, I love shrimp and grits and this dish was really good. The flavor of the gravy was intoxicating and the shrimp were nice and tender. Noms!
Blue cheese, hard poached egg, tomato, avocado-champagne vinaigrette. $24
Barking Frog, Woodinville WA
Now this is my kind of salad! What’s not to love? You’ve got crab, prawns, bacon, eggs, blue cheese, and avocado. I’m in heaven! Even though I wasn’t feeling it at first, the service was actually really friendly (although M.I.A. at times).
Sharp white cheddar, maple butter, frisee, on Italian feather loaf. $6.75
Northside Social, Arlington VA
This breakfast sandwich was very tasty and easy to eat. Or maybe I was just hungry and scarfed it down so quickly, hehe! I thought the Italian feather loaf was a good bread choice for the yummy fillings.
Side of sweet tomato jam, served with hand-cut fries and pickle. $12.79
Ted’s Bulletin, Washington DC
I was skeptical of peanut butter on a hamburger, but it actually tasted really good even with some of the tomato jam mixed it! The beef patty was cooked nicely – juicy on the inside with a nice grilled crust on the outside. And the fries were deelish!
Fried potato wedges, truffle oil, crispy bacon bits, egg. 250 PHP
Sky Deck View Bar, Manila PHILIPPINES
We wanted to hit a rooftop bar while in Manila so we found the Sky Deck View Bar located at The Bayleaf Intramuros hotel. The bar is really cute and you get a 360 degree view of the city. We went during happy hour so the drinks were discounted. The snacks were also pretty tasty. These truffle fries were really good and sinful. Hey, I’m still on vacation!
Cuba libre & Vodka tonic. Each 280 PHP
View from the bar.
Beef, pork, garlic rice, scrambled eggs, bacon, pancit.
Boracay Regency, Boracay PHILIPPINES
Ugh, I couldn’t stop filling my breakfast plate with SO much food every morning! I really didn’t have to eat so much and I wasn’t even that hungry, but I couldn’t pass up on tasting a little bit of everything. Hehe!
Waffle, ube (purple yam) bun, fruit, cheese bun.
Boracay sunset, Station 2.

Boracay Regency, Boracay PHILIPPINES
Omg, I ate SO much for breakfast that morning! I really liked the options so I went all out and even had items from the dessert section. I think it’s OK to over-eat when you’re on vacation, hehe.
Chow mein, egg omelet, skinless longanisa, potato, French toast, blueberry cream cheese danish, and sweet roll.
Interesting view from the Main Wing of the hotel. The abandoned tower in the middle is actually some person’s hut now.
Grilled chicken, romaine lettuce, bacon, hard-boiled eggs and croutons, creamy parmesan dressing on the side. 265 PHP
Epic, Boracay PHILIPPINES
Mmm, this salad was really tasty! The ingredients were of good quality and I liked how neatly it was presented for a salad. The thick shavings of parmesan cheese were great on top.

Koi pond, Boracay Regency.
Pancit, fried egg, ham, chicken sausage, bacon, corned beef, beef cubano, and garlic rice.
Boracay Regency, Boracay PHILIPPINES
Wow, I was impressed at how many different items they had available for the breakfast buffet at the Regency. I only had a sampling each morning but there was a lot to choose from. They also rotated a lot of the items from day to day. The food was kept pretty warm and the service was great. I really enjoyed breakfasts at this hotel!
Congee (rice porridge) topped with hard boiled egg, fried garlic, and green onions.

Omg, this was warm and delicious! I loved the bacon, and the pastry was the perfect thickness for cutting through and eating. I thought this was fun and new. We need these here in the US! They’re the perfect bite for breakfast.

Omg, I loved this chowder! It was probably the “meatiest” version I’ve had a long time. It had SO much flavor and the most perfect, silky smooth texture. The seafood ingredients were delicious and abundant – I loved everything about it. NOMS!!!

Caramelized onion, cheddar, bacon, horseradish aioli and fries. $15
Park Tavern, San Francisco CA
Their sister restaurant Marlowe has a very popular burger that’s supposed to be amazing so I think Park Tavern adopted it too. The burger was very juicy and flavorful and the fries were crispy and delicious! The meal overall was very tasty, but I wish our server had brought out ALL the food we ordered. They didn’t forget to charge us for everything though! Kinda unprofessional to forget a dish even when asked multiple times about it.
Bon Tempe Lake.
