Ever since I tried Relik during its opening days, I've been trying to convince my family to visit it too. Last month, we finally got to try it out.
It has bricked walls hanged with all discs, photos, articles and other vintage items. It has a LCD TV and DJ booth which is necessary when it turns into a live party place during the late hours. Despite its mix and matched fixtures, the whole place surprisingly brings a warm and nostalgic feel.

| ♥ Relik's Mixed Paella (820 php) |
The Relik's Mixed Paella needs to be ordered a day in advance. Just a bite from this sent me a blissful spike of happiness with its rich tomato sauce covered paella and generous toppings. It didn't have any socarrat at the bottom as we were able to sweep this pan clean easily. Although it was advise for 8-10 persons, we felt wanting for more even though there were only six of us.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Relik serves food as good as its parties. I may not be a party person but I'm glad my mouth is wild and happy with their food. Price is a bit on the high side I guess that's what you should be expecting when dining in a Tapas Bar. Both Spanish and Boos indicate shelling out but without regret since they are both irresistible right?

When The Foodies Circle was invited for the first time for a taste test at Kuppa Roastery & Cafe, we were all so excited! When I first caught sight of Kuppa after our dinner at Basty's (see previous entry), I already felt that it was a great place to try and I was right!
To those who are unfamiliar with Kuppa Roastery & Cafe, here is something I got from their brochure...
"Kuppa (pronounced as cup-pa) originated from a family who knows coffee. It took them around 60 years to make their first cup starting form their grand father who started his roasting business after World War I. Their first branch in Bacolod opened in January 2006 in the same lot where the Lo family started the roasting business."
Even with their expansion in the Fort, the family is very hands-on in handling their business. To ensure the consistency in quality, some of the family members are here in Metro Manila to oversee the operations.
Kuppa Roastery & Cafe is located just beside Floring's (see previous entry). It has a huge area space covering two floors. On the first floor, there's an area with high stools and a casual cafe set up with lounges. On the second floor, they had a large executive type function area.

| Gyokuro (140 php), Jasmine Dragon Pearl (95 php) , ♥ Casablanca Mint (125 php), Fruit Tisanes and Red Wine (150 php) |
The Gyokuro is the finest Japanese Green Tea which has a smooth and sweet taste. It's quite a strong tea with its distinct taste.
Chinese Tea
The Jasmine Dragon Pearl is a high-grade tea rolled into little balls and scented with jasmine flowers. You will find this very soothing.
Herbal Tisane
The Casablanca Mint is a mix of green tea, peppermint and lemon grass. This gives a cooling effect because of the peppermint.
Fruit Tisane
Kurt had the Berry Patch Delight (130 php) are infusions from raspberries, hibiscus, elderberries, grapes, blueberries and blackcurrant. It tasted similar to a mixed berry juice.
I had the Evelyn's Garden (130 php) which are infused from apples, rosehips, citrus peels and sunflower. We were surprised that despite the difference in ingredients, it had the same color as the Berry Patch Delight but had a lighter shade. It tasted dominantly of rosehips and citrus peels which is a bit zesty and fragrant.

It was suggested that we pair coffee with their desserts. Let me share them with you.

Last Sunday, we spotted a new restaurant called Floring's at the Commerce Center at Bonifacio Global City. The place is just a block away from St. Lukes Global City. It was such a coincidence because yesterday, I was invited to sample some of their dishes with foodie friends.
I initially though that Floring's is an expensive diner because of the location and its attractive and mondaine facade. To my surprise, Floring's is a casual self-service restaurant serving affordable meals. We were invited during lunch time and the place was packed with eager customers. The turn over during lunch time was quick. I could see the Java rice and Plain rice refilling staff rushing to-and-fro.
The venue is spacious covering two floors. I just love its chiq interiors. It has distinct design on its ceiling.
Food

| 2 Pcs. Pork BBQ with Unlimited Plain Rice (99 php) |

| ♥2 Pcs. Pork BBQ with Unlimited Java Rice (120 php) |
The 2 Pcs. Pork BBQ is served with a cup or rice and atchara. The Pork BBQ is tasty and tender. I really enjoyed eating it because I didn't feel that the viand is disproportional to the rice. The unlimited Java Rice is a unique concept of Floring's. Shelling out an extra 21 php for it is worth it.
Chicken-tastic

| Lechon Manok Half (165 php) |
The Lechon Manok is a flavorful one. I enjoyed eating the white meat part with the soy sauce, calamansi and chili sauce.

| ♥ Crispy Chicken-Tastic Diablo Half (165 php) |
Everyone was raving about the Crispy Chicken-Tastic Diablo. It was quickly finished that I didn't get a chance to try it. I shall come back for this.
Side Orders

| Ensaladang Talong (55 php) |
The Ensaladang Talong is grilled just the way I like it.
Sweet Endings

| ♥ Halo-halo (80 php) |
Floring's Halo-halo is very chunky with caramelized banana slices, ube, cheese and more! It's a must try!
Drinks & Extras
![]() |
| Iced Tea (28 php) |
The Iced Tea can be ordered individually for 28 php or as an add on for their rice meals for only 22 php.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Floring's offers quality budget meals that will surely satisfy you. I love their unlimited Java rice concept and will avail of it whenever I visit again. Everyone also told me that the pork sisig is worth the try! I shall try that when I come back. The food is affordable so its easy to come back to any time of the day.
