Short on time but craving quality? Beginning 2026, Burger & Lobster will be your fast, flavorful errand-day fix.

Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53). A family member ordered an Atomic Burger for 695.00 pesos ($11.78) along with a Lobster Mac & Cheese for 990.00 pesos ($16.78).

Talking to Senior's

 


I have been receiving calls from my mom's best friends who are a senior citizen and telling me if I can hear them clearly as they tell me stories their children are telling them they need to start wearing a earing aid.

My adopted mom said why do I need to wear a earing aid when I call you I can hear you clearly and heck I don't want something hanging in my ear the more people know I have aged.

I was teasing my adopted mom people will not think your old because the hip thing now us younger people are wearing ear buds in our ears to listen to music so either way does it look like I am old too.

We had both laughed and my adopted mom either way I don't want something hanging inside my ears how irritated it will be to have something stuck inside.

Just last week I had received a new earbuds I had ordered online Manang V asked me what is that so expensive. I had informed Manang V it is earbuds to distract myself from the noise in the house. I asked Manang V do you also want one for your ears so you can hear us but for you it is hearing aid since you have told me several times you cannot hear us.

Manang V said my budget is PHP 150.00 ($3.00) I said if you buy something that price it will be broken when you use it once and there is no hearing aid for that price range.

Manang V said than I would rather hold off on the hearing aid and let you talk a little louder or go close to you when you speak.

I remember one Grandmother told me when you reach my age you will know how it is so right now you can laugh at me and I will laugh up there in heaven when you reach my age.
