Crepeman in Lilac

After a satisfying dinner at Padi's Point Antipolo, (I had this trip included also in a separate blog, go check it out.) Lou has been complaining of a dessert to complete her meal.I felt obliged as she's gonna be here for just a week and I've been curious of a shop along Lilac in Marikina that seems to have delectable crepe menus. And off we went to Crepeman Marikina branch.

It was a neat shop that could serve around 8-9 small groups or couples. They also have a seat outside for customers who smoke.

It was surprising to find out that their crepes are not solely the dessert-type sweet ones. They have crepe menus similar to a sandwich meal, it's just that they make use of crepe and not breads (imagine the image of shawarma or the Nan that they serve in Indian curry, or clubhouse served in Nan not white bread.) They also offer breakfast menus served in rice and filipino traditional dishes such as longanisa, hotdogs, ham and eggs among others.

I'm fascinated with antiques and old memorabilias. And their display caught my eye; an old radio, polaroid camera neatly mixed with the modern displays in their shop.

Lou ordered caramel banana crepe in whipped cream plus a coffee to balance the sweets she'll indulge herself in.

Lou loved the sweet blend of caramel, banana and whipped cream filling in her crunchy-prepared crepe served in metal stands. I think we would definitely visit it again when we can. The place is small but cozy, and the ambience is homey, I recommend it to small groups or couples looking for a sweet bite or for simply famished groups who likes homey atmospheres in their dining destinations.

Buffalo's wings and things

After work, decided to grab something to eat and went to Buffalo's wings and things.

Spicy chicken wings served with a  sauce of  different level of hotness.I decided to take on the Wingsanity challenge, the hottest of them all. A staff warned me, she said I should  try first the Armageddon to gauge if I can stand the heat of the Wingsanity.

Half pound of wings served with dirty rice

Wings with Armageddon sauce

All wiped out

So I got the Home run meal package B, half pound of wings served with a cup of dirty rice( mexican style) and iced tea. It's deliciously good and not that hot. was able to finish it in less than 15 min. And still wanting for more.

The meanest of all. Wings with Wingsanity sauce

A signed waiver is required before taking the wingsanity chalenge

I ordered the homestyle B with the wingsanity sauce. I was asked first to sign a waiver. I am able to finish 2 pieces of wings untill the ordeal begun. I had watery eyes, nose dripping, flushed face, sweat all over my face. It is so hot ! I  asked for an ice cold glass of water. Slowly worked my way to my last piece. The last bite is always the hardest. This is rated 1,000,000 SHU !

Done!

Victory!

Finished my meal in less than an hour. Relaxed for a few minutes and I was given a certificate of completion.
