YAKIMIX Sushi, Smokeless Grill Restaurant!

As the title suggest, oh yes dear another food trip blog entry for me.

So, yesterday just right after the clock hit 5:00 me and my girls packed up and went straight to Yakimix at Greenbelt 3. It was about 5-10 minutes walk away from our office so no hassle at all going there.
At around 3:00 (same day) I called their office to have a reservation but according to the staff their reservation is already full for that day, that's why our only option is to walk-in and that's exactly what we did. We waited roughly around 20mins, before we got called. I think we came their early enough since other nearby offices also end their office hours by around 5:00 or 6:00, and I was surprised how fast this resto got filled with customers. Not to mention that aside from those already eating inside, there are still a lot of waiting walk-in's at the lobby.
  I guess this is the reason why Yakimix is very popular.
Very affordable eat-all-you-can.
Taking pictures of  the buffet table is prohibited that's why I can only share to you photos of the food we tried.
My plate
assorted raw foods that we grilled
this is what we enjoyed the most
the grilling part.. haha :))
refreshments:
We opted for a bottomless drinks that's why from time to time I drink different juices :)
of different color! So COOLorful! :)
I am a die-hard fan of desserts
These are all mine! hihi! :))

TGIF! ♥

Banapple

Last night, me and Len, my closest office buddy strolled around Ayala Triangle after work to unwind and treat ourselves from a whole stressful week we had gone through.

And what's the best way to fight stress??... FOOD! 

For those who are not familiar with Ayala Triangle, it's a park located at Ayala Makati. But for us, working around Makati, once we heard Ayala Triangle, one word will automatically comes in mind, JOGGING! A lot of makati girls and boys jog around this park after work. But this is also a place to chill around with friends/office mates since a lot of resto is seated in there in one stretch. 

Anywhooo, this is how I spent my Friday night, we ate dinner at Bon Chon (sorry I don't have pictures) and went to Banapple for dessert.
Banapple's Cake
OMG!! I want everything!!
Me and Len while in queue
Banoffee Slice (Php 95)
Super Caramel Slice (Php 100)
Baked Creamy Cheese Penne (Php 185)
Home Made Ice Tea (Php 60)
US looking very SATISFIED!! =)

This is not our first time here and we kept on coming back because of their cakes, very delicious and affordable. I absolutely recommend Banapple to you lovelies, aside from cakes and desserts they offer pasta, entrees, soup, salad,etc.. you will love dining in here for sure. Visit and like there Facebook fan page  for more info and updates. 

Hope your having a great Weekend! :)
Hugs & Kisses,
