Kalami Cebu! - A Gastronomic Guide to Cebu

Two weekends ago, my friend Angela Madura was joining her first ever 13K run.   I suggested that a before the race, she should eat a lot of carbs to store lots of glycogen on her body. I told her that one of the best carbo loading meals would be pizza and pasta.   The night before the race, we had dinner at Ryan’s Pizzarelli House.    Eating at a pizza place was indeed a brilliant idea as Angela was able to finish her 13k at a pretty decent pace.

When it comes to quick meals and desserts, one of my personal go-to places is Zucre Pastry Shop.The modest dessert place is located at the  2nd Floor of the bustling City Times Square in Mandaue City.  It is being managed by a young entrepreneur who intends to be one of the best cake makers in the metropolis in the years to come. I have been to Zucre several times already and I have listed my 8 favorite specialties of the cake shop/cafe.

One time my friend Lotlot was looking for a place to eat dinner and she wanted to eat somewhere in I.T. Park.  We decided to check out Gusto Urban Cafe + Wine Bar and try wonderful creations.  I was not really that hungry then and I was just content on finishing what Lotlot and her kids have ordered. An hour later, I ended up having a #happytummy.

Two days ago, Angela Madura, one of my food and fitness buddies, asked me if I know where Ribpublic Diner is. The 17-year-old girl has a list of places she wants to eat at.  I can only answer that it is somewhere in Capitol Site. I really don't know where Ribpublic is and my only clue is that one of my Swarm friends have checked in there.
