redappletable: 2012 Cebu Day 1: Breakfast at ilaputi

An hour before I landed in Cebu, I was busy BBM-ing my friends, L & R in Cebu. Will be having breakfast with them on my first hour in Cebu. Super excited. But I was welcomed by traffic so, I got a bit late. So happy to be with them. Whenever were together, we laugh a lot. We laugh out loud showing off our esophagus to each other. That's how happy and how natural we are with each other.

Ilaputi is one of my fave restaurants in Cebu. Aside from the fact that its location is really convenient, they're open 24hrs!! So, anytime I feel hungry, I can always go here and eat alone without the feeling of sadness of eating alone. *emo* Ilaputi's corteous crews and cozy environment attracks a lot of customers. They serve great plates of pasta, sandwiches, salads, tapas and drinks. Among the dishes I remember I ordered from them were the saigon adobo, stroganov, kari kulkarni, parta puti, grilled pork belly, fusion fillet, grilled chinese chicken, chicken mexcebuano and jambalaya.

All their meals are served in large portions - large enough to satisfy your hunger or even just cravings.

While we are eating, we were also busy laughing. Catching up with the happenings of our lives. Ang sarap lang ng tumawa ng malakas na natural na natural. Being with people who you can be yourself, is just refreshing. I miss laughing as hard as this. lol

Here's what we got:
