I was running errands for my brother last week and it took me until four in the afternoon before I was able to get to SM Mall of Asia for lunch. I was really hungry and looking forward to eat a heavy meal that day. My last experience with Racks was pretty indulging so I went to the same restaurant hoping to enjoy another meal from them.
SM MOA
Satisfying Dinner At Racks
I had an appointment last Thursday and it was already mid-afternoon when I finally made it to the university. I got a plan ready on what would I do after the meeting and where would I go. I had so many things in mind but time didn’t permit me to do all of those in 5-6 hours. My bad, I had to finish some tasks at home before attending to school and personal stuff.
Welcome Dinner At Fish & Co
It’s this day of the year once again. We fetched my brother in the airport and went to SM MOA for dinner, as usual. This has been a habit for my family every time he or my father is coming home to the Philippines. We always look forward to times like this because my brother always pays for our lunch/dinner expenses. From T.G.I. Fridays last time, we took risk in eating at Fish & Co this time. We knew it would cost us a lot but no one cared at all at that time. It was our chance to eat in an expensive restaurant so why not, right?
Trying La Mesa Grill
We fetched my Dad at the airport and as usual, we went to SM Mall of Asia to eat and do window-shopping. Since my father loves eating Filipino foods especially those, which are grilled, we ended up having lunch at La Mesa Grill. If I still remember right, the restaurant is located at the South Parking building near the Seaside Boulevard, where most of the restaurants can be found. From the name itself, I believe La Mesa Grill is a local restaurant serving grilled foods and other local dishes.
Happy Tummies At T.G.I. Friday’s
Last year, we were able to fetch my brother again from the airport. I was hoping that the family could be complete that time but like in 2008, my younger sister wasn’t able to come with us because of some school stuff. Since my brother has been talking about T.G.I. Friday’s since his college days, I had convinced him to treat us lunch there the next time he’ll go home again. I was actually looking forward to that lunch treat especially that I could order for something expensive. That’s how lucky we were.
Lunch Treat At Burgoo
It was my brother’s first vacation in the Philippines after he left in September 2008 to pursue graduate studies in Japan. He didn’t make it on Christmas but he was able to spend a one-month vacation in the country in early 2009. We fetched him at the airport together with the whole family except for my younger sister. My younger sister chose to stay at home to review for an incoming exam. It happened that my Dad was here in the country also for his vacation so it’s really perfect. We celebrated this rare opportunity by going to the SM Mall of Asia (MOA) as we were expecting that in the next few years, my brother and Dad might have no chance to see each other very often.
