Belgian Truffle (PhP 70)

While searching for a new place to have some desserts, the MDC Team stumbled upon Sugar Munch. I was also eager to try it out so I can include it in my directory of local cake makers for my Wedding Coordination business. We were not disappointed when we saw the giant ref full of mini and full-sized cakes.

I am not a fan of bangus (milkfish). I don’t hate it, but I don’t eat it if not forced too. But the moment I tasted Avenida‘s Bangus dish, I fell in love with it. The fish was not dry, it was flavorful. The tomatoes, onions, and other vegetables on top were delicious. YUM!

Mocha Java Fagiogranita (PhP 90)

The number of restaurants and cafes sprouting everywhere in Davao City is proof of the city’s burgeoning food service industry. One of our recent discoveries is Fagioli Coffee Club. Fagioli is an import from General Santos City that opened a branch last December here in Lanang. I tried out their Mocha Java Fagiogranita and I loved it. The texture was great, it had a moderate amount of whipped cream but it was a tad sweeter than the usual Mocha drinks I drink.

A service announcement from Yam’s Multiply:

We are in need of Visayan actors for an indie film entitled “The ‘Thank You’ Girls’ scheduled to be shot in Davao City on March 2008. Audition will be on FEB. 22, 2008 in DAVAO CITY (specific venue to be announced later) so if you know people who will be interested in the area, kindly tell them.

“The ‘Thank You’ Girls” is a roadtrip comedy about five dysfunctional gay beauty pageant veterans who always lose in gay beauty pageants. They then decide to travel from Davao to Cagayan de Oro City thinking they have better chances of winning in the provinces.

STRAIGHT ACTORS CAN AUDITION.

Also, if you are an unsigned alternative rock band who has recorded music, we are in need of songs for the film’s soundtrack.
