Staycation - G to the Z style (#2)

Friends, coffee, tempura, cats and art. Followed by cocktails, music, Mexican, neon lights and fun. The next morning filled with cab rides, dumplings, clan cribs, rummaging through vintage treasures and eating shaved ice. Just like Canberra but not.

Cebu - boo - hoo

When your friends flight isn't yet to take off, after it was due to land...what do you do? You repurpose the cocktail you originally were going to have on their arrival.

In honour of Cebu pacific airlines, I present the Cebu-boo-hoo.

About a cup of lemon, a big glug of maple syrup and some water. Shake it up and refrigerate. Stack a bunch of ice in a glass, add some of the lemon maple stuff, and a pretty big shot of bourbon whiskey (the later the delay, the bigger the shot). Add some lemon and there you go. One Cebu-boo-hoo

Sometimes Mostly the beauty of things is in the everyday. Great fashion, wonderful alleyways, dogs on motorbikes, wooden wheel protectors, rusted bikes and walls, muted colours, and broken tiles. This is the China I love.
