Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about  Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all. Each order comes in its own green plastic bag with a table...

After 5 Years Dining at Sugi Japanese Restaurant

Carmina had a family member who was the one who introduced Sugi Japanese Restaurant to her five years ago. We used to dine there every time there was a special occasion.

Upon entering on the left side there will be someone to assist you asking how many you are, so they have found a table for you. 

I suggest if you are a lot, you can call ahead and make a reservation. 

After entering five years later you notice the decoration and the menu has upgraded. Looking at the menu got me so confused good thing the server was able to explain it to us.

Mom Violy's common Japanese food is always the chicken teriyaki bento box. The person helping us said they have items off the menu.

Mom Violy was able to get her favorite chicken teriyaki bento box includes with Japanese rice and miso soup.

Mom Violy also wanted some sushi, yet she cannot remember what she had ordered.

Elle and her friend Esa shared mixed vegetable tempura and sushi that had eel. I am not sure what the name of sushi is. 


Mom Violy requested Carmina to order some beef sukiyaki soup. Carmina only requested a small portion was told it is 2 persons.

We couldn't finish our meal. Mom Violy took it home.

My favorite all time appetizer is their eggplant. They have a different name I couldn't quite pick it up when the server told me what it was.

The other family member had their own separate meals of the tonkatsu with Japanese rice and miso soup.


Beef Teriyaki with Japanese rice includes side dish vegetables and miso soup. 

Mom Violy requested to take pictures before heading out and you can see the server from Sugi Japanese Restaurant at our back also smiling at the camera.

We're told that Sugi Japanese Restaurant will be moving to another faculty their last day is on February 4, 2024.
