I got a chance to visit Aperitif at their branch in Sm Aura. I recently won their online contest Aperitif Xmas Giveaway on Instagram. They will pick 1 Lucky winner everyday until the end of this year and I got the lucky spot last 16th of December. I’m an avid follower of Aperitifs Instagram page, Not just i love their Paris France inspired physical store but also they are serving different amazing luxurious treats.

So Hunting BOGO Offers by BOOKY still continues. The next thing that we tried with my Booky Twinning is the Famous Churros from Lalola!
This is their incredible offer!~
I was so excited this is my first try of their Long,Crispy and sumptuous Churros. I selected their Matcha and Chocolate dip that really goes well with my Churros! The dip cost me 60php each for the smallest. Dip is not included in Booky Offer.

Have you seen on the right side corner their festive cone shaped packaging, so cute! feel just like a kid holding that thing.
BTW. I felt lucky because the food items that I planned that time and I think will be a great choice of Drinks to partner with my churros is just adjacent to Lalola! Its time for Gong Cha.
Actually this is again my first time to try this Milk tea Brand and I’m super impressed with its taste. No wonder it has a Long queues! I’ve heard a lot of things about this Milk tea Place, and I’m glad I’d experienced it with the help of Booky. Not to mention the cutie Oppa Park Seo Joon is their endorser.
I added Black Pearls with the Milk teas I claimed. It just cost me 36php all in all!
Booky offer!
This Brand from now on will be on top of my list, I fell in love with their unique creamy milk foam!
Don’t mind Kuya in this pic I just want to show you steps to savor Gongcha!

Food venture becomes more exciting when I discovered the BOOKY APP. This is a great app for foodies like me.Not just I learned and explore different food places to this app but also I save a lot because of their great BOGO OFFERS. I downloaded the app and it gives me a trial period of 1 month and so far I’m enjoying it.
My first try:
I’m glad that BOOKY partnered with some of my favorite eating place and this first try is at Max’s Restaurant. I claimed a BOGO of Chicken Sisig Meal with Sago’t Gulaman Drink that only cost me P169, so I save 169 php for the free meal. I just presented the app to the counter and scanned their QR CODE. Whats nice is You can also used this APP Offline, the app will just send sms code to your phone so you can complete the process. Overall I’m satisfied with my hassle free experience and I enjoyed this great food offer, a hearty and very satisfying meal.BURRPP!
Chicken Sisig Meal with Sago’t Gulaman- 169php
Next try:
I am ecstatic that my fav pretzel place is included and the BOOKY offer is with their new menu item, Blueberry cream cheese stick. For only 95php you can have two for the price of one. I love Auntie Anne’s and I love this blueberry thing taste too! Thanks BOOKY. More Food Ventures with you!
It will expires after 1 month, and I am given an option to continue If I want. For 3 months it will only cost me 9php, after that 299php monthly membership as a BOOKY PRIMER.
Will I continue to go Prime?
Absolutely Yes, cause its a win win for me I love to eat with my booky twinning and imagined it will be in a very economical and penny wise way because of their Buy 1 Get 1 deals . Not to mention when you go prime you are being part of their advocacy sponsoring a child’s school lunch every month. A part of the monthly Subscription fee will sponsor at least 3 school lunches for Filipino Children through their two feeding program partners ARK and Kusina ng Kalinga. So I am telling you,This will be a great subscription you can have. So be part of a BOOKY PRIME Download the APP now!

Finally, one of my food bucket list has unlocked. Dining here at Banapple was a wonderful experienced as it is included the 1+1 food list of Zomato Restos participants. Thanks to my Zomato Gold subscription it’s a great value for money. I recently subscribed to this great offer for only 500php in 1 year. Actually I got a friend code and slash a 20% on membership that makes me cost only 400php.
We had a smooth experience in using our Zomato at Banapple. I just informed them beforehand that I’ll be using Zomato, presented the APP and click the claim offer and it quickly unlocked. Staffs our cooperative and friendly. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made, perfect for foodies like us.
We had Bacon Fried Chicken Steak with Milkshroom Gravy and its super good. We like the crunchiness and texture of Chicken combined with its creamy gravy sauce, top with bacon bits makes it complete awesome meal.
Bacon Fried Chicken Steak with Milkshroom Gravy-P275
As with our free food we selected Herbed Chicken Rolls with Basil Cream Sauce. Big thumbs up to this because I love food with herbs.
Herbed Chicken Rolls with Basil Cream Sauce-P275
We’re happy with the set meals we’ve chosen, it really makes our tummy full because of its large servings. Rice alone is so flavorful and the veggie sidings with it was sweet, best pair for savory taste of the dish.The Passion fruit drink has a balance sweetness and very refreshing.
Your food journey here will never be completed if you’ll not try their desserts. We tried their Oreo Brownie Fudge Cheesecake and surprisingly its not that sweet. It was so good that you would want for more.
Oreo Brownie Fudge Cheesecake -P155
Definitely will come back here. I want to try their pies and other cheesecakes and other set meals. 
Overall a great experience to this offer. I save a lot. I’m halfway through to what i paid on my membership fee and I have still long to go. Cheers to more Limitless Dining Experience to New places with my Zomato Gold!

Gratitude Post
Recently I’m one of the 5 lucky winners who won the halloween makeup contest of @innisfreeworld. Chosen winners will get prize pack which includes:
My foundation- Instructed to pick our own personaI shade. I picked 2.5 N21. I come up with this shade by following their unique steps of choosing your shade (Moisture-Coverage-Shade)
1.Moisture(level 1-3) I picked the middle(2),I don’t want to be dewy nor matte just in between.
2.Coverage(1-5)I chose 5, best coverage to hide my blemishes and to be able to withstand the tropical weather and humidity here in my country.
3.Shade(N21)I have warm skin tone thats why I selected on the natural side.
My foundation brush-This will be a great addition to my makeup brushes. A round flat brush with compressed fine hair that feels so soft will do a easy blending on my foundation.
Olive real cleansing tissue- Perfect because olive oil is one of the oils I’m using for removing my makeup. So portable for me, A cleansing tissue incoporated with oil of organic golden olives.
High cheeks pouch- A lovely pouch with a bangle handle.Very convenient to use it fits your daily essentials(lipstick,phone,purse). Best bet for women on the go.
Haagen dazs hand mirror- A super sweet popsicle looking mirror. Looks like a real ice cream to me.yum!
I’m extra happy with this prize pack. This is my first, to win an online makeup contest and it became more special because I have so much love for the brand. A good start for this IG Beauty feed
Thank you @innisfreeworld.
