Want to restore a 40-year-old decoration to its former glory? Try these simple, safe cleaning tricks that won’t damage the finish.

Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into  Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up.  I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home. She said it was forty years old and already dirty. The saleslady explained it could be cleaned easily with soap and water. Carmina decided to take Mom Violy home and bring the crystal tree decoration with her. Mom Violy questioned why she was taking it, and I said I would clean it and return it.  I noticed Mom Violy had placed planting seeds inside the decoration, for reasons I didn’t understand. Before cleaning it, I checked online to see what was needed, knowing its value. I placed a towel underneath, prepared a plastic container with dishwas...

Oriental Palace


What happens when you're favorite restaurant is decided to close down? 

You end up searching for a new Chinese restaurant until you has decided the place you will always have your family gathering.

A place to keep ordering until you've tried the complete menu of your favorite Chinese dishes.

We've decided to try Oriental Palace to see what our taste buds will like it or not.

A way to find out is order common food we always order from a Chinese restaurant to go on based whether it has approved us.

Prawn Hakaw PHP 188.00 ($2.98) four pieces


Sharksfin Dumpling PHP 148.00 ($2.98) four pieces


Roasted Pork Asado Small PHP 480.00 ($9.60)


Hot Prawn Salad Small PHP 680.00 ($13.60) comes with fruit salad with the prawns.


Assorted Meat Fried Noodles (Medium) PHP 630.00 ($12.60) the only problem is the sauce wasn't enough to fill up the noodles. There we're too many meat and vegetables than the sauce itself when mixing it together. Something Oriental Palace has to reconsider if someone else decides to order their Assorted Meat Fried Noodles through Grab Food being delivered at your home.



Yang Chow Fried Rice (Medium) PHP 630.00 ($12.60)


Yang Chow Fried Rice (Large) PHP 840.00 ($16.80)


Carmina is done trying Oriental Palace who knows we can see what other dishes to try next time around or try to dine in person when that time comes.

What I have notice sometimes the food taste really different from base on my own experience during our pandemic some restaurant has something lacking in their own dishes.

For sure that time comes I will let you know how my experience was from what I see when I can walk in and dine inside to feel my atmosphere being inside a Chinese restaurant.

Note:

Carmina is not selling or advertising Oriental Palace Restaurant just a place I decided to try off and try their food.
