CALDA PIZZA

The best from Cebu

Just you, friends and a good Pizza... a dream. Known for its crispy, thin yet big-sized pizzas! It takes me hours to choose in between a classic Margherita Pizza, mushy Funghi Pizza, spicy Etna Pizza, exotic Hawaiian, a folded Calzone, or a no-meaty Vegetariari, a fire-red Bolognese, Pinoy Style Filipiana, covered Pepperoni... or Capricciosa, Carousela, Modena, Granchi, Roma, Napoletana, Veneta, Filetto oooor a cheesy Quattro Stagioni.

And then the second question, the size: are you feeling alone to go for a regular (10"), are you with family or friend go for the family size (15") or even both, family plus friends then consider the XL which has even 20". But it doesn't stop here... level up with the Super-30"-Pizza and with the goodness size of 36", the so-called XtraSuper. Accordingly is the pricing... ranging from Php140.00 to Php1,290.00

Clear result: Neat ambiente, tasty stuff, cannot complain about the pricing at all... Calda Pizza is the best import from Cebu! Daghang salamat mga Cebuanos!

CECIL'S Davao

Snack Inn & Bakeshop Inc.

Tradition defines Cecil's good business. For generation Cecil's has been serving Dabawenyos with a taste of Filipino cuisine and adapted a wide assortment of snacks and desserts. Over the years, the business flourished and expanded to many branches in the city. Today, Cecil's is a firm part of Davao history and will surely continue to be part of family gatherings, birthday's or simply a brief merienda snack of our children' children... A modern yet historical place, very affordable, easy to reach, smiling staff - just a cozy and homey feeling by entering Cecil's door.

Davao Homey's Tip:

sneak inside Cecil's doors for merienda and try the "Pancit Lug-lug", a thick sauce over noodles, sprinkled with crispy pork or flower onion. (Php75.00)
are you brave? - indulge in the all-time Pinoy favourite "Dinuguan". We do not have to explain the ingredients... lets just say, Cecil's did a fabulous job in bringing out its version!
try "Batchoy Special" (Php75.00) which is a classic noodle soup topped with an egg and flower onion. Simply, a beautiful flavor.
The desserts are an eye-catch! From chocolate moisture cake, cute Carrot cake, egg pie cake (around Php45.00/slice) to "Eclair" that indeed brighten up your afternoon siesta!
you can order customized cakes for any occasion! Approach the nice staff and ask for the catalogue from which you can choose the best.

DON BEPPE

Pizza & Pasta "from the wood oven"

Amore in Davao... The lower street of Bonifacio street holds a little treasure indeed. Just near UIC Bonifacio, Davao Homies can enjoy a new pizza and pasta highlight at Don Beppe. A nice and cozy place that offers a wide range of Italian specialties. From Antipasti, soup, pasta risotti, risotti and pizza. the drinks reach from delicious fruit shakes, juices, coffees, soft drinks, beer, cocktail, wine, liquor over to house wines.... Prices are reasonable, and worth the dishes. A great piggin' out place: sweet breeze of Italy, clean place, nice staff and tasteful dishes all created for two... a place for Amore!

Davao Homey's tip:

As Antipasta - a must try "Bruschette Calabrese" (for Php245.00) a wonderful entree of chopped tomatoes, a big bunch of garlic with herb on light toasted bread.
As Soup - enjoy the seafood soup "Zuppa de Pesce" (for Php150.00)
As Pasta Risotti - wonderful choices of the Italian classic of garlic and a bit of Chili, "Pasta Aglio-Olio" (for Php229.00); a tasty spaghetti with clams and white wine sauce, "Spaghetti Vongole" (for Php269.00); or my favourite... "Spaghetti Puttanisca" (for Php349.00) - an amazing mix of black capers, black olives and anchovies.
As Risotti - I would recommend the "Risotti alla Marinara" (for Php389.00)
As Pizza - the amazing "Rusticana Pizza" (double Php219.00, family Php420.00), a dream composition of mozarella salame, mushroom, red and green bell pepper and tomato. And if you need it double, go for the "Calzone alla Barese Pizza", the folded pizza version which is worth dying for (Php364.00).

Remark: Watch out, Don Beppe is going to move to Gaisano Mall by August 15, 2011. These prices indicated in my blog are taken from the original menu and might be subject to change.

The wonderful entree, the Bruschette Calabrese - a perfect
blend of tomato and onion and lots of garlic.

All time classic, Spaghetti Bolognese
