Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side. I didn’t expect the turkey to be just one piece, and the bread was toasted so hard that it removed one layer of the sandwich. Since ...

Senior Ball

Going to a prom is a big deal when you are in your teens in high school when someone ask you to be their date. In this generation going with a guy is no longer important you can go with your female or guys friends and don't require you to have a date. The generation has changed and we are less stressful finding someone to ask you out on a prom or you having to ask someone to take you on that special day. I remember when I went to my Senior Ball my mom place me on a blind date she had matched me up with one of her friend who had a son. The problem being matched up by your parents you are not interested in that person and you find out later he is not a guy. He is what you called, gay. He never went out of his closet. I only found out getting to know him during the night of my Senior Ball.  I didn't go alone with him on my Senior Ball. I went along with my other friends who we're also matched up by their parents. So, I wasn't alone. My dress was mad...

It was’t enough time to look for the best place as possible most places I wanted was already fully booked. I found a place called, Sand Bar the review in Facebook was noted 4 dollar symbol and the rate or their place was good. Our drive from Manila was two hours. We had reached our destination early for the check in time of 2:00 PM. They gave us what rooms those were already available. We’re given room #9 and #10. Our room #9 had a broken toilet it didn’t flush. The stairs we’re very narrow and the entrance is not good for someone who is tall. You can bump your head on the ceiling. This was the first time I had encountered a place like this. I had complained to the reception office that our toilet wouldn’t flush. They had tr...
