Family Day Out: Lunch Buffet at Kusina, Cymplified!

by

The clouds were dark and heavy as we made our way to the South. Particularly to Hilton Manila where we had lunch buffet at Kusina. It is exciting to try new restaurants. About the place Judging from its name, this is a Filipino-inspired place that serves international cuisine. For our entertainment, there were several short dance presentations right by the folding decorative wall divider near the entrance. Spotlights were even trained on the performers. The place looked clean and … [Read more...]

Adulting, Cymplified!

by

Define Adulting {from Google} Adulting - (informal) behaving in a way characteristic of a responsible adult, especially by accomplishing mundane but necessary tasks. But... It's not yet added to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. It's a word they're watching, though.  I am today years old when I learned that "adult" is also a verb. Nowadays, when people act responsible like paying the bills, they'd say they're "adulting". Do you use this word as well? So, happy new year, adults!   My journey to … [Read more...]

Chapter May: Food Edition, Cymplified!

Chapter May: En Route I pushed the luggage trolley leaving the airport, and it was like waking up from a dream as the Manila heat rushed to my face.

On the very first day of May, laden with luggage and bags, I was caught up in the airport … [Read more...]

The number of petals might differ largely or slightly, another might flourish facing the sun and the other blossoms embraced by cold air. Each with a different height and a different color and a different size. Like snowflakes that float … [Read more...]

Embracing New, Cymplified!

by

Happy new year! It's still January after all. We're still embracing new. Most people have no problem embracing new - new things, especially. The new year brings about new things (rather, it's Christmas that brought the new things, unless these are "regifts" or hand-me-downs). New year also brings about new experiences, which would be more reluctantly received because of the changes these entail. Unless these are new experiences by traveling!  And I could never say "no" to new books. :-D The new … [Read more...]

Family Getaway: Romantic Hillcreek Gardens Tagaytay, Cymplified!

by

The first reason I snapped up a deal for an overnight stay in Hillcreek Gardens Tagaytay on Deal Grocer is because the room offered has two queen-size beds, perfect for our family of five... As of now. While the three of them could still fit in one bed. The second is, I wanted a beautiful place for our wedding anniversary getaway. Hillcreek Gardens just screams romance! It's a wedding venue after all. There was even a garden wedding ceremony on the day we checked in. Third reason is the … [Read more...]
