Barossa @ Esplanade

Last month, I went to Barossa for my valentine day dinner with my loved one. It was an alfresco style dining. I was afraid it might get a little warm but the breeze was just enough to cool the place. Furthermore, it was quite windy that day so it create a relax ambience. Barossa is famous for beef and they do serve beef buffet on wednesday and sunday for an affordable price. 
Anyway, we ordered a crab meat linguine and steak with mushroom and spinach as the sides. A cold beer to go along with the meal sound perfect and a strawberry fondue cake for dessert. Everything was great except the dessert, special flavour but taste normal. Perhaps I will visit again for their beef buffet. Sound good.

Boracay 2013

This post was a bit late. It was my first anniversary trip to the beautiful island, Boracay. We took Tiger airway to Kalibo airport. The airport was really small, departing and arriving at the same place. After checking out, we took a bus to the jetty. The journey was around 2 hours. After which, the boat journey was around 10 minutes. Finally after so many transfer, we reach Boracay. We were planning for a 3 day and 2 night getaway at Mandala Spa and villa. The resort was very beautiful and the staffs were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast for served were fabulous. It was a nice place to stay if you are looking for a quiet place. It took around 10mins to walk to the bustling beach. The beach was very clear and it was a long and white sandy beach. There were a lot of people and activities going on the beach. Along the beach, you can see people advertising water activities, asking for tattooing and doing hair pleading. There were plenty of bar and restaurants so no worries on the variety of food to choose from. Overall, Boracay has an attractive beach, affordable food and many activities to participate. Highly recommend for honeymoon, couple getaway and group outing with friends. I love Boracay and perhaps go back again one day. 
Enjoy the nice scenery I took during my trip.
