Healthy Kitchen, Serendra

By Anton Diaz
Topics: #Restaurants

The newest kid on the Serendra block is the Healthy Kitchen restaurant in between Cafe Via Mare and Guava. Most restaurants in this Serendra driveway area facing Market Market are struggling and they only survive because of the weekend crowd. Healthy Kitchen’s formula for success is providing yummy healthy food + nice homy ambiance + FREE wifi. They have an extensive selection of salad, innovative healthy appetizers, signature brown rice toppings, healthy burgers and satisfying whole wheat pasta assortment. If you love tofu, they serve Tofu Sisig, Tofu Steak Salad or Tofu Adobo Brown Rice. The only downside with Healthy Kitchen is that the main dishes cost around P200-P300.

After eating in Bacolod Chicken Inasal Express, don’t miss ordering desserts or pasalubong from Ensaymada Factory next door. Ironically, the Ensaymada Factory is known for their big cheese rolls, chicken empanada, caramel cake (with yummy toppings), and canonigo instead of the ensaymada. You got to try their new flourless cookies. Most of the goodies are baked fresh from this main store. They also sell their goodies in the Salcedo Saturday Market.

PSI Philosophy

PSI stands for People Synergistically Involved (PSI) Leadership Success Seminar. “The seminar is based on the fundamental principle that each individual possesses unlimited untapped potential. Unlocking this allows a person to achieve greater results and abundance. What hinder us from achieving what we want are self-limiting beliefs about who we are and what we can do. These act as barriers between our goals and us. The PSI Leadership Success Seminar provides the opportunity for us to examine these beliefs as well as experience new ways to overcome them.”

I’m still savoring the memories of my latest awesome journey to Tacloban City in Leyte. We had fun celebrating with the Taclobanons during their twin fiesta celebration — Pintados Kasadyaan Festival last Friday and Sangyaw Festival last Sunday. I discovered most of the foodie secrets of Tacloban– it is definitely more than just Guiseppe’s Italian restaurant.
