It’s alone me time again. I’m usually hesitant to go to this place because most of the customers dining here come in pairs or as a group. And I rarely eat with friends or family. A colleague once joined me when we were supposed to meet after lunch and he saw me eating alone while he’s on his way to our meeting place.
Trinoma
Alone Time At Tempure Japanese Grill
I remember walking back and forth along the restaurants area of Trinoma when I went one there one early afternoon in May. I was very hungry and it was past lunchtime already. I couldn’t decide where to eat until I saw Tempura Japanese Grill at the 2nd level of the mall. I felt relieved seeing there were no other customers in the restaurant. And I was right – the service was fast.
Trying Out Kani Salad At Teriyaki Boy
Since I started dieting, I tried to eat a lot of low-carb vegetables as much as possible. But whenever I eat out in Japanese restaurants, I barely eat salad because they’re not the typical green salads I used to eat. They have this Kani Salad, which I’m reluctant to try at first. It is a salad usually consists of kani (crab) sticks, lettuce, cucumber, carrots and mayonnaise. After reading in an online post that it is good, I decided to give it a go.
The Mann Hann’s Shrimp Roll
Whenever I’ve planned to lunch out and I’m not familiar with the restaurant, I always try to look up online some of it’s bestsellers. In the case of Mann Hann, I think it was only on my 2nd or 3rd visit where I was able to order one of their famous viands. I’m referring to their Shrimp Roll. I’m not a big fan of shrimps but I don’t hate them either so why not try it, right?
Going Light And Healthy At Sizzling Pepper Steak
I could no longer remember why I was in Quezon City at that time but I’m pretty sure I went to the university before going to the Trinoma Mall for a very late lunch. I’ve been planning to visit Sizzling Pepper Steak but it was until last March only that I got to do so. I could easily get distracted by other restaurants that I know serve good food. Finally, I had the chance to try Sizzling.
Back At Teriyaki Boy, Finally!
I remember eating at Teriyaki Boy once but I didn’t get to come back until this year. I think I was still a college student at that time so I found their prices a bit pricey and decided not to go back. Whenever I’d be at Trinoma for a while, I’d always look forward to lunch or dinner. I even do online search to check where I could possibly eat and what should I eat. After looking at their online menu, I realized not all of their food is expensive so I decided to give it another try.
Sister’s Rare Treat At Conti’s
My sister got her bonus and we were all surprised when she offered to treat us to lunch in one condition – it should be in Trinoma. Her goal was to eat at her favorite restaurant, Conti’s. Everyone agreed so we went there after attending a Sunday mass. Due to limited budget, we had to plan the day before what we were going to order the next day. :D
Late Lunch At Mann Hann
It was one of those days again where I couldn’t eat on time. It happened all the time whenever I’m busy working at home and even while out running errands. I went to Bicutan that day to do something for my brother and got to go back in Quezon City past lunchtime already. I’ve already thought of a place where I could eat while I was on my way to the mall. I decided to go back to Mann Hann in Trinoma to try their other food.
All By Myself At Recipes
I had breakfast a bit late that day, just before I went to the University to get something for my brother and myself. It’s exactly 3 in the afternoon when I reached Trinoma for a 4pm meeting so I decided to have lunch first. I’ve wanted to eat at Recipes with my family after my colleague treated me to lunch there last year. But since I still couldn’t bring my family there and I already missed their food badly, I decided to eat there alone.
Anniversary Lunch At Banana Leaf
It was a Sunday and at the same time, it was my parents’ 28th anniversary. My father wasn’t here in the country but like what we used to do every year, we gave Mom a bouquet of flowers and a cake. My brother gave money for Mom’s spa treatments while my sister prepared a gift. With a quite limited budget, I volunteered to pay for the lunch. My family got no choice when I said we’d be eating at Banana Leaf Asian Cafe. It’s one of the Philippines best restaurants for 2011 and it’s our first time here. Even if my sisters were not okay with it, they had no choice.
Eat. Eat. Eat.
