Youngest’s First Birthday Treat

It was my sister’s 21st birthday and for the first time, she decided to treat us to lunch. Instead of having a separate celebration with some of her closest friends, she just invited them to come with us in Marquee Mall that day. In fairness to my sister, she was game in almost every food we are suggesting her to order at T.G.I. Friday’s.

Birthday Lunch At Josephine Restaurant

It was my birthday and we spent the long weekend at Tagaytay. As planned, we should be able to eat at Josephine Restaurant before heading home. We anticipated a lot of people eating at the restaurant but we didn’t know the place is huge. At first glance, the main eating area looks like a hotel lobby for me. Hehe. The servers and waiters are dressed like the ones in the hotel. I was impressed. The restaurant was jam-packed when we arrived so we had to wait until a table becomes ready to accommodate us. The 5-1o minute wait was worth it. Luckily, we were seated close to the glass walls where we could clearly see the breathtaking view of Taal Lake.

Simple Chinese Dinner For Brother’s Birthday

It was my brother’s birthday. My sisters were expecting a treat from him but nothing happened. My mother cooked some special dishes, though. My brother and I had plan of dropping by at the mall after the afternoon mass but there had been some changes in the plan. We failed to attend a mass but we’re able to go to a relative’s wake before heading to the mall, together with Mom. After a quick run in the supermarket, my brother and I decided to try David’s Tea House. We haven’t eaten in the restaurant and both of us wanted to try something new. There are no other restaurants in the mall that we hadn’t eaten yet.

Lunch Treat At Cyma

I’ve been dying to bring my family at Cyma but it was only until last Sunday that I got the chance to do so. I promised to them that I’d treat them to lunch once I got my salary so this was it. It was also my Mom’s birthday so our lunch should be special. I’ve only tried eating at the restaurant once but I think it’s a good place to eat for families. I’ve read some good reviews online so I want to try their food myself together with my family.

Sister’s Birthday Dinner At Guilbert’s Place

My sister’s birthday fell into a weekday so our youngest was at work when we had dinner that night. Together with my Mom, my sister and her boyfriend, we went to Guilbert’s Place for a simple dinner celebration. We’re already on our way to the restaurant when I realized I forget to bring my driver’s license. Luckily, we survived the night without getting caught by a traffic enforcer.

The Return At Tender Bob’s

It was Sunday, a day before my younger sister’s birthday. Since my other sister would be going to work the next day, the birthday celebrant agreed to celebrate her special day that day. She treated us to lunch at Tender Bob’s in SM The Block. We enjoyed our previous experience in the said restaurant so we were quite excited about the idea of going back there.

Celebrating Dad’s 55th Birthday At SumoSam

It was my father’s birthday and like what we used to do every year, we celebrated it with the whole family even if my Dad wasn’t here during his special day. Since I’m still in search for new restaurants to try on, I brought my family to SumoSam at Marquee Mall. I’ve been hearing a lot of good feedback about the restaurant and just found out later that it’s co-owned by Marvin Agustin, a local celebrity. We’re not into Japanese foods but we would like to try some of them especially those fused with American flavors.

What I Love In FlapJacks

It was only last month when I was able to try FlapJacks because of a meeting set with my professor and colleagues there. I’ve been hearing the restaurant’s name but I hadn’t got a chance to pay it a visit maybe because of its location. The closest branch in where I stay can be found in Technohub, Quezon City. So my first dining experience there turned out to be my professor’s birthday treat to us, while talking about business at the same time. And then just last week, I also got another chance to eat there for another meeting with some colleagues.

TLC Dining Experience At Tender Bob’s

We rarely go to QC or Manila just to celebrate the birthday of any member of the family. These past few years, we only went to QC during our birthdays because of the Quiapo Church. My family sees to it that we go to Quiapo Church once in a while. During my brother’s birthday this year, we didn’t go to Quiapo but we still went to the mall for his birthday lunch. For the first time, we went to SM The Block for lunch, in Tender Bob’s specifically.
