I’m Actually an Introvert

December 19, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

Most people label me as an extrovert. All the personality tests I take say the same thing. But today I realized that I might be an introvert after all. Why? Because I am sitting in the corner of a dark room instead of going downstairs and mingling with my brother’s family-in-law and other guests. I […]

My Brother’s Wedding

December 19, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 8 Comments

My brother got married earlier today. I was a bridesmaid or secondary sponsor in charge of the cord, so it meant I had to be up at 6 am so I could wait in line to get my hair and makeup done. The bride was first priority, of course. Then my mom and I got […]

Reunion @ Bizu {Foodee}

December 18, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

We decided to shift to another place for dessert after having dinner at Tokyo Tonteki, and Drew suggested Bizu in Greenbelt 2. I loved the place, it was so pretty! I wanted to take pictures of every nook and cranny. I was already so full from eating bottomless cabbage and drinking bottomless red iced tea […]

Reunion @ Tokyo Tonteki {Foodee}

December 18, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

My P&G friends chose Tokyo Tonteki in Greenbelt 5 as our dinner place because they wanted to try a restaurant they had never been to before. I ordered their bestseller, the pork tonteki, which is what the restaurant is named after. Tonteki is actually premium pork loin steak.  Drew ordered chicken steak with tonteki sauce […]

Let’s Face It {Review}

December 18, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life 2 Comments

Whenever I’m in Manila there is one place I never fail to visit – Let’s Face It. I’m a sucker for their cheap eyelash perms and diamond peels. This time was no exception, so after lunch with Flisha I headed to their Greenbelt 1 branch and booked sessions for the two services I mentioned in […]

Reunion @ Dulcinea {Foodee}

December 17, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

After checking in at the hotel, I met up with my friend Flisha. We went to Greenbelt 5 where she suggested Dulcinea spanish food for our late lunch. I fell in love with the purply-pink couch because of its color and because it looks cozy. I’m sure it’s meant to be a love seat for […]

{Review} Amorsolo Creekside Hotel

December 17, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

My second full day in Manila was booked with meet-ups in Makati, so I decided to book the cheapest hotel room I could find in a more familiar spot in Makati. The room was very small, just enough for one person.  It was a comfortable enough place to sleep in.  The small bathroom had hot […]

Savory Korean BBQ Sauce (Review)

December 16, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

I’m a huge fan of barbecue sauce. Given the choice between fried stuff or barbecue, I will always choose barbecue. Why? Well, because of the sauce! Who wants boring dry food when you can have one with yummy sauce? So I was so happy when I got the chance to try these: The sauces are […]

Mason Jar Cookies, Etc.

December 15, 2014 by Dee @ A Deecoded Life Leave a Comment

So my friend Chi had a brilliant idea for a Christmas gift – homemade chocolate chip cookies or crinkes in mason jars. Isn’t it super cute? She made them herself. Only the cookies, obviously. I’m sure it’s hard to form glass.  I was supposed to help but I fell asleep instead. Oops. Sorry!  All I […]
