Nissin's UFO Fried Noodle Review

Hi guys!
Today I will be featuring another noodle.
This is a souvenir from my workmate who had a vacation in Singapore weeks ago.
This is the Nissin's UFO Fried Ramen!




Unidentified Flying Object? How is it related to this ramen? XD

After removing the plastic packaging, you will see the cooking instructions of this ramen. Alright, let's start then!

Instructions:
1. Open the lid half way.
2. Take out seasonings.
3. Pour boiling water up to boundary line.
4. Wait 4 minutes.


5. Tear turbo drain system to drain the water. (this is cool, all cup noodles must have this.)
6. Put all seasonings and mix it well.

After that, I just added egg on top. Aaaand taadaaa! Our finish product!

My verdict:
-Veeery salty for me! X( It should be a dry noodle, but because it's very salty, I added hot water and made it a soup noodle instead.
-I like its spicyness. It's spicier than Lucky Me's Pancit Canton (extra hot), but not as spicy as Samyang's Budalkbokkeommyun. I can compare its spicyness to Nissin's Souper Meal Instant Noodles (hot and spicy flavor).

Thank you and see you next time guys! Bye!

Secret Haven Cafe: It's no longer a Secret!

There are things that are never meant to be told, just like secrets. But just like what the others are saying, there's no secret kept covered for the long time. I proved them right, as I discovered this hidden gem in Noveleta, Cavite, and now I'm sharing this to everyone. This is the Secret Haven Cafe.


Secret Haven Cafe is located inside Jordan Subdivision in Noveleta, Cavite. At first, we took a hard time to locate it because there's no signage of the subdivision. We just asked the residents on the way. We searched around the subdivision, then we ended up finding it almost right after the gate of the subdivision. The outside look of the cafe is covered with plants, that's why we didn't notice the cafe easily. Tawa na lang kame. Cool gimmick though, kaya pala siya tinawag na "hidden gem." XD So, for your convenience, I recommend to use any navigation app.

How could we find it easily? Eh just look at this picture. XD


"Discover Noveleta's Best Kept Secret"

What made me decide to visit this place is its whitewash walls and corners filled with different kinds of plants (but let me share you this... not all plants inside are real XD ) Every corner is so Instagram-able. I found them on Facebook, and discovered that some celebrities visit this place, too. It's easy to go here if you have a car. Just like what we did with my friend Yuri, we went there riding his motorcycle. But there's no parking area there, so diskartehan niyo na lang. XD

Let's now have a tour inside the cafe! :)



Naka-relate yata siya. XD










Macho. XD

Now let's go inside. :)





We paused from taking pictures when finally our orders came.



Tidal Basin, Chef Salad. 5/5


Golden Gate, Crispy Mojo Potato. 5/5. For the first time, may naka perfect na mojos sa akin. Not very salty and oily.


Boracay Smoothie, and Blue Lagoon Mocktail (non alcoholic). Both taste good! :)


We had a good time from our stay here in this cafe. We shared stories while enjoying their delicious food and cool place. And before we went home, since it was getting dark already, they turned on the lights outside and had a chance to take some more pictures. This cafe is perfect to eat, relax, chat with friends... even to work and study. We had just a piece from their menu, so definitely I will come back here to try the others. Wanna join me? :)

One Sweet Day at The Dessert Museum

Just sharing our sugar overload experience in The Dessert Museum!


The Dessert Museum is located at ground floor, S Maison Mall, Conrad Hotel in Pasay City, Manila. It's beside the SMX Convention Center, MOA. This place is trending in social media because of their 8 Instagram-able rooms. Inside, you can eat up to 6 desserts. 

Actually, our first plan was to go to Enchanted Kingdom in Laguna. We really wanted to go there before my sister starts her job in August. It was Thursday, and really a good timing to visit the said amusement park because we expect less people are there during weekdays. However, after checking their park schedule on their website, I found out that they are only open Fridays to Sundays for the whole month of July (haha. asar.). So, we push the plan B: The Dessert Museum.



We left the house at 7:30AM, then we arrived at the museum at 10:40AM. Suuuper traffic!!! I was expecting only one and a half hour travel, but there's a change on the route, and yeah, traffic sa express way. Sa express way pa nag-traffic, tartar sauce! >__< Good thing, we had breakfast so we didn't worry about being hungry later (and we know we'll gonna eat inside the museum XD ). We went as walk-ins, and it costs Php799 per person. Purchasing slots on their website is a hundred peso cheaper (link at the end of this blog, scroll down mo na if you can't wait XD ). After payment, you will have the wrist band to scan before you claim your desserts.



Before entering the first room, a staff (wearing pink dress, unicorn headband, and colorful long curly wig... hahaha) reminded us to secure our wrist bands, and our things. Guys, you will pay Php300 if you lost the wrist band, so take care of it.

Okay! Let's start the fun! (^_^)v

ROOM 2








ROOM 3
The doors going to Room 3. Nag unahan pa kame dun sa Naughty Door XD

ROOM 5







ROOM 6










ROOM 7







ROOM 8






SOUVENIR SHOP
Upon reaching the souvenir shop, you have to return your wrist band back to them.









We were lucky that day because there were few people when we visited the place. Less hiya and more lakas ng loob sa pag awra when taking pictures and videos, haha! But still, always remember to give way for the next who wants to take photos, too. Room 3 is my favorite, while my sister likes Room 4 the most. My sister enjoyed eating desserts inside, while I can no longer manage another bite of the 3rd dessert (muntik na akong umuwing may diabetes charot! XD ). We stayed for 2 hours. Actually, you can stay a bit longer and go back to the previous room if you want, but for me 2 hours is enough to explore all rooms. May mauuwi ka nang sandamakmak na pang IG posts, at diabetes JOKE! XD You'll also get some facts about desserts, which you can see printed in each room.

The pictures in this blog were taken using Nikon D3400, Nikon Coolpix S3300 (credits to my sissy), and Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Pictures are not enhanced, filtered, and/or color corrected.
