Bellinis Restaurant/SMEARED

We had a photo exhibit at Manila Collective, Cubao Expo, entitled SMEARED, and while setting up our photos we tried to have dinner at Bellinis Restaurant just beside Manila Collective.

We ordered Vongole and Pesto Pasta, Napoli and Altono Pizza and for dessert we had Obama Dark Caramel Cake, which taste all so good and had to finish all of it (to full to get up)

Then the owner walk over to us, Roberto bellini, a Paparazzi photographer in Italy, and says that ikaw may problema... thinking that i had done something wrong, then told me that never eat with you camera on your lap, put it on a chair beside you and says than there are no thieves in his restaurant. i always place my camera near my body because i lost my camera bag at fridays restaurant a long time ago

after a small chat he gave us free sweet wine which was so good i wanted to get and drink a bottle of it.

ITLog




Itlog, which in the English language meaning “EGG”,

Eggs laid by females of many different species, including birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish, have been eaten by mankind for millennia. Bird and reptile eggs consist of a protective eggshell, albumen (egg white), and vitellus (egg yolk), contained within various thin membranes.

Egg yolks and whole eggs store a lot of protein and choline. For this reason, the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) categorizes eggs as Meats within the Food Guide Pyramid

Popular choices for egg consumption are chicken, duck, roe, and caviar. The egg most often humanly consumed by far is the produce of the chicken.

In tagalog the word itlog may be used in any term, like in school – anong grade ang nakuha mo… ITLOG!!! Or in sports – sya ay nag itlog sa shaded area (3 second violation in basketball), but I will use it as and acronym for my travel which would be I Travel Log or in short “ITLog”. I Travel Log, would be a documentation of the travels I (we) have made and with some stories and real facts that would accompany my photos.

And my first ITLog would be our travel to the place called “GANDUYAN”, or which is now known as “SAGADA”
