If you're searching for a family-friendly dining destination, look no further than Lazy Dog Restaurant, where delicious meals and a cozy ambiance await your next gathering.

Just when you're on your last day spending with your family there is an invite to have dinner. My family wanted us to have a meal at an American restaurant. It was my first time to dine and have a meal at  Lazy Dog Restaurant  in Concord, California. My brother in-law had made a reservation at six o'clock party of seven. We had received complimentary barbeque chips and a dip while waiting for the remaining family to arrive. For our appetizer was the Bacon Candy. Reading the menu to decided what to order came across $15.00 Fireside Favorites that includes with a main course meal and dessert from smores brownie or banana pudding.  Fettuccine Alfredo  Blackened Shrimp Tacos Dessert  Family members just ordered what they wanted with the Campfire Pot Roast, Chicken Lettuce Wrap and Fish. Everyone had enjoyed their meals and shared with each other. I am grateful my family gave us the opportunity to try new restaurants. NOT SPONSORED. Check out my channel @ Carmina Lif...

Exotic Filipino Food

There was one time I was visiting the Philippines for vacation. One person was offering me to eat rice porridge with chicken feet. 

I remember my parents always told me when you are visiting some one's house and they offer you food. You really need to accept and eat their food.

For some reason I couldn't accept the food because I was shock to see a chicken feet soak in a bowl filled with rice soup in it. 

I just said, I was full.

Sometimes they also cook it adobo chicken feet.

Just to warn you it is best to ask the person you attend a birthday party what the dishes are made of some times they serve goat in their food. They call it kambing in the Philippines. Once you hear that word you know what that is.

They cook it as kaldareta, adobo or sinapalukang soup.

Kambing (goat) Kalderata

My father in-law loves eating it and you see the head floating in the bowl. Oh my. I can't even seat down at the same table seeing a head of a goat in a bowl. 

Do you eat escargo (snail)? Here in the Philippines they call it kuhol. It is cooked in gata (coconut milk) or adobo.

I may be Filipino, but I don't eat all their food. There are more food selection to choose from. Are you brave enough to try it when you come and visit?

This is another exotic food that Filipino dare for the Foreigners to try. Some people are only brave to eat this when they are drunk. 

They call it balut it is an cooked egg and there is a chick inside with a hard yellow egg inside. 


You would eat this in one eating and swallow this all up. They put salt on it just how you eat an hard boiled egg.

I remember  when my niece and nephew came to the house and their Grand father wanted them to try it. I made up a story that the chick inside is an alien and it had a white helmet.

They went to tell their Grand father about it when they we're ask to eat it.

At first the Grand father didn't understand what they we're replying too.

Later he understood and laughed at them.

In Pampanga a restaurant in Every body's Cafe my Father in-law loves eating betute (frog legs). It is cooked in variety dishes such as tinola, grilled, kare kare and adobo.

He loves all these other insects and tapang kalabaw (buffalo)
