The Purple Owl Tagaytay


Ok im somehow o a roll here in making these blog posts. So anyway. I was really busy doing a lot of food photography. I had really interesting clients and their food is just superb. Like this one on top is from The Purple Owl in Tagaytay. That place is really amazing. Not to mention they have really nice food! This dish is their Rosemary Chicken and by the smell of it, your tummy will go on world war 3! Its smells so good and yes it really is delicious. Probably one of the best chicken dish I ever had. 



They also have their delicious Porchetta! Its actually much more delicious Lechon Belly. That crunch from the pig skin is like a sound from heavens above. Its crackling like the thunder! Enough with those words mac.. haha. I tell you this dish is so good. I really dont know how was it made. All i know is that , their recipes for their dishes is handed from generations to generations. Its like theres a soul into their dishes. Theres history of some sort. All made with love... 


Their pumpkin soup is also one of the best. People actually come back to Purple owl for this soup. Its so delicious. You'l just close your eyes in awe... Its heaven. I really would like to thank my good friend Ms. Anne Cua for helping me with the styling for this shoot. She really has great vision. Anne actually makes my job easy. :)


This is actually my favorite dish from that shoot. The most amazing Beef In Beer! Oh yes. Its that soft beef infused with your local beer. Drenched in that thick, dark sauce.... ugh you will instantly forget your name as you take a bite.  Its so good. You better shovel a lot rice for this one... Its so delicious. 

Purple owl is actually an events place. Couples usually go here. Most of them to propse.... or have that intimate date. Give them a call first and they will do all the decorations. All the set up. All that mood that you want on a date. They will do it for you. They will set it up in their big garden. You can have the most intimate dinner while watching a movie..as they will set up a projector by your table... Yeah. Place is really amazing. Go check them out. Go visit the Purple Owl in their facebook page for more info. 


Love Wins


Photo above is  my first Gay marriage coverage. My fist of its kind. They actually got married in Australia. This is more like a reception already and actually a fancy intimate dinner with close friends and family. I already posted this photo in my facebook page and I quoted - " No matter how complicated a relationship as it may be, regardless of the color of your skin, race, ethnicity nor gender. If you are meant for each other - Love Wins. 

I never made a blogpost for the longest time. For some reason, blogging became a little off to me. I dunno. Maybe I already lost it. Before I used to blog almost about everything. Everything beautiful that I see. But now, all of those is just a thing of history. These past months... probably a year actually, I was never happy. I was actually depressed. Even though it seems like I have everything I need. I feel empty. Its like living in the dark. Struggling to get through. Its just sad. 

Anyway, the year is almost done and I don't want to end it on a sad note. I do believe that 2019 will be a great year. I just have to believe in myself. Be positive. And work smarter. Im already there to be honest. I just have to work on it even more. I just need to focus. Focus whats coming, not what was left.
