Kyochon: The Best Korean Fried Chicken in Town

Let me share to you a big secret. I am Ornithophobic which means I am scared of birds. However, this only applies to live birds because I love fried chicken. 

Because of the love for fried chicken and the popularity of Gangnam Style and K-Pop, I started my quest to find the best Korean Fried Chicken in Town and I ended my search with Kyochon. 

Kyochon's Fried Chicken is something that you can be sure that it is cooked properly (no blood) because of the double frying technique. This is very important to Val and me. Their Kyochon signature sauces, which ignited the recently global craze made me fall in love to it immediately. 

Our favorite is the original series. It is crunchy and crispy chicken coated in soy garlic glaze. 

Other reasons why you should visit Kyochon is their fresh salad with blueberry dressing. A healthy salad with such a unique and delicious taste. By the way, you can ask for extra blueberry sauce if necessary free of charge. 

The place also has great ambiance with K-pop music video in the background. 

Thus, if you are craving for Korean Fried Chicken, visit Kyochon. They have branches in SM Megamall, SM Fairview and Greenhills and soon in Eastwood. For more details, you may visit their facebook page.

Tune Hotel : The Perfect No Fuzz Accommodation

It was actually my sister in law who made the booking in this hotel in Quezon City however due to a snow storm, their flight was delayed for 2 days. So, Val and I decided to take advantage of their accommodation because it's non-refundable and we don't want to waste their money. 

The rooms are quite small. Just enough space for the queen sized bed and 2 side tables.

Rooms include a 32 inch television, hair dryer, vault, air conditioner and a ceiling fan. There are no cabinets/ closets but there is bar where you can hang your clothes if needed. 

Their bathrooms are nice and clean too. They have a separate shower and toilet area. 

Other things we liked about this hotel is that their staff are really friendly, nice and professional. They provide great customer service. Their WIFI is also fast and stable which is suitable for video calling. I also like that they use room key cards when you access the elevator to avoid unwanted guests on your floor. 

They also have 7/11 at the lobby and Ministop on the other building for your needs. Our overall experience was wonderful. So, whenever you are looking a place to stay with the best value for your money, then, we highly recommend Tune Hotels. 

Tune Hotels Quezon City is located at Timog Avenue, Quezon City.

Pinac : Heirloom Capampangan Cuisine at UP Town Center

Whenever we are in Balara and Katipunan Area, Val and I usually dine at UP Town Center. There are actually a lot of restaurant choices in the area with different specialties. 

Pinac is known to serve Capampagan dishes. What we liked about the place is that it has a homey atmosphere where one can truly enjoy family heirloom recipes. 

The tables are quite close to each other but it was late in afternoon so, it was not crowded. 

Let me share the dishes that we ordered. 

Pork Barbeque, Garlic Rice and Side Dish

Chicken Pastel

Calamares

Ofcourse, there is always room for dessert. 

Dulce de Leche Cheesecake

Among all the dishes we tried, Dulce De Leche Cheesecake is a must try. 

The price is quite reasonable. We only paid Php 1,176.43 inclusive of rice, drinks and service fee. I just hope that they can provide free WIFI because the mall's internet service was slow.
