The Fearless Journey to Basilan : Malamawi Travel Guide

Hadjiman, Basilan is now deemed as peaceful place where splendid sceneries allure many thrill-seeking souls.

Misteryum Brings Affordable yet Delicious Food Since 2015         I grew up eating a lot of Chinese food since my parents love it too so I have grown accustomed to dishes like Chow Mein, Wanton Noodle and the dumplings I actually crave for a lot but usually dishes like these are quite expensive and usually the cheaper counterpart is not really at par to ones I had as a child but luckily I was able to stumble upon a place that offer affordable Chinese cuisine in San Juan CIty! Misteryum has been established since 2015 and it has been serving affordable Chinese cuisine ever since. One of the things they do offer is that although their food is affordable it doesn’t skip on the taste and authenticity of food similar to the ones in Hongkong since the father of the owner has passed the recipes he had cooked back in Hongkong.
