A video that invades Youtube with 186 million + viewers and counting since July 15 2012 (The date when the video was uploaded) The first encounter I've been was from 9gag that says "No Gangnam style" sign. I just ignored it back then.
Days had passed, and I found it on facebook though not the official MTV but 5 girls dancing Gangnam style which I find it amusing haha. So I look for the original video which is PSY singing ang dancing unusual but hilariously funny. Not to mention that there are a-lot of parodies appeared. Entertaining, yes.
The MTV has unusual dance steps; riding an invisible horse, shaking the booty like a cartoon character and so on. The kid in the intro is pretty amazing by the way! ☺
Again, another fad. Remember Nobody by Wondergirls? That was a fad. Seems like a lot of craze have been happening in the world eh?
Anyhoo, What is Oppan? What is Gangnam style? Questions to be answered on these links.
So what is really behind those korean lyrics of Oppa Gangnam style?

It may be freakin' peculiar to others but hey, admit it. You raised a centimeter to make that smile. ☺
That's all right, everyone wants to be happy. Ta-ta! ☺
It was such an exhilarating yet freaky moment in our lives.. so far :) Imagine, that you're about to freefall for 2 seconds then swing with such great wind. Not to mention that you'll be hanging in a height of 45 meter / 147 ft or on top of 1,470th floor building! Really. Speechless. Truly amazing. After they pulled us up, we went to see our hilarious acts we've done in photographs. Good thing that you'll be able to purchase all of your soft copy pix (300Php) with 2 chosen printed pix.
And there you go, we sure going back here again! ☺
If you're looking for adventures/thrills then de-stress yourself from the overworked city at E.A.T Danao. ☺
Do you know other similar places to visit? Tell me please! Thanks! ☺
It'll be a problem for those people who have fear of heights. But you should not miss this for experience.
Imagine, you're on top of 38th flr... On the edge, tilted.
But if you can't handle your fear, you can control to straighten it.
And congratulations, you'll receive a certificate, brave one. :)
Skywalk: Mission accomplished!
This is another thrill we've done on 37th flr.
The thing is, you will walk on the floor. That's all.
I guess they should've change the floor into a glass so we can see what's down there. Right?
Excited hubby :)
Cnt Lechon
1/2 kl for 180Php
In a sunny afternoon lunch, people are crowded dining here at Cnt Lechon. Some do takeouts not just 1 box (1kilo) but 4 even 6 boxes! I also witnessed a family seems having a party to their house ordered 6 whole roasted pig. "Ganun kabenta at kamura sa Cebu" I said.
The place is not too extravagant, in fact it's like a canteen. Though.. hot. Really hot.
Anyway, moving on to their delicacy. Lechon.
To be honest, I don't eat pig skin, even crispy pata. To be exaggerated, I disgust those food. Fortunately, Naga's Bob marlin's crispy pata changed my taste. "Ang sarap!" with matching twinkling eyes.
At Cnt, people ordered 1kl to dine in. No people EXCEPT US ordered 1/2kl haha. "nakakahiya naman" I said. :)
You know what, their food brightens my day, I totally love their pig skins that doesn't need any sauce, though for the internal meat, you prolly need those. (rhyming words! haha)
Another famous lechon I heard are Zubuchon and Rico's lechon which we will try next year :)
I don't know why in Manila's lechon doesn't taste so good for me.
You know what they say, "Authentic food comes in the street of the origin".
As we arrive at Pizza Volante restaurant at around 10:30pm. Seats are almost fully-packed! But still, we managed to find a table for us and we assume that the restaurant's food is that great.
Here's what we've ordered,
mussels in red sauce with wine
117Php
I like this dish so far, the sauce is thin because of tomato & mussels juice. Liquid-y as you eat it, you know, sauce is spattering as you slurp the pasta :p
Kenny George 8" pizza
162Php
For this specific flavor, this one is average for me.
Anyway, we'll surely try other flavors and might blow us away :)
Waffles
75Php
Creamy waffles. Simple yet yummy.
Others: Chicken fillet Corsican rice 120Php
Vanilla milkshake 46Php
Tasty chicken, not too salty aaaannnd Vanilla milkshake for the win! So addicting.
Overall rate, we'll surely get back here again, imagine, all the food I've mentioned above costs us around 500Php.
Everyone is happy because it's looooong weekend (Aug 18-21)!
August 18 Saturday
August 19 Sunday
August 20 Eid-al-Fitr (Holiday)
August 21 Ninoy Aquino day (Holiday)
That's why :)
Moving on to..... Baguio! Yay.
Vizco's restaurant and cake shop
Before hubby and I check in to our hotel, we stroll first by walking from victory liner to session road. Well, I guess to save fare..maybe not. :p
Baguio City is really small that you'll be able to memorize every corner of the place. As we walked to session road, there are lots of restaurants to choose from, italian/filipino/chinese cuisine, cake shop and many more.
But Vizco's caught our attention so we tried this out.
Gambas rice
225Php
This dish is one I really like! A combination of pesto buttery sauce in a very tasty shrimp that can't go wrong.
Chap chae
[*from Ocha restaurant menu]
210Php
*Ocha and Vizco'sowned by the same owner where you can order some food from Ocha's menu even if you're in Vizco's, vice versa.
Hubby's favorite. I normally don't eat chap chae, I don't know, maybe it's just odd for me to eat sweet noodles. Except for this, I like the balance of sweetness and saltiness of the dish which made me eat this. Unfortunately, due to recent adjustment of my dental braces, I can't chew comfortably. Wrong timing. Maybe next time!
Choco mudpie
[based on my receipt]
90Php
This dessert.. it was frozen! Confused a bit for this dessert, the usual mud pie I know is that, chocolates are swimming around the cake. Choco mousse with banana Or Banana choco mousse (Yes, it's banana, the yellow thingy above) is more appropriate I guess.
Mango cake
65Php
I like what I ordered a slice of mango chiffon cake. For the price it's really worth it. The icing and mango cream layer did not fail on me.
They accept credit card
They do delivery!
Just call/text 446-7082, 09175790962 or 09209642407
I often eat 1 or 2 spoonful of crispy pata and that's it. But as I've tasted this cripsy yet juicy meat, I can't help myself but to compete with my hubby eating it haha. Really, this is so far the best. Better not miss this! :)
Bicol express
99Php
If you're in naga/bicol don't ever forget to order their spicy cuisine bicol express!
FYI:
Bicol express was named after the train. I guess it's PNR from Manila to Bicol region (Bicol express) route.
