What made Mom Violy step out of her comfort zone and try Las Flores for lunch?

  Mom Violy wanted to try Spanish food from  Las Flores  at Robinsons Magnolia . I remembered long time ago saw a family friend when my family was visiting beginning of the year. Mom Violy couldn't remember decided to have our lunch. Carmina decided to try out their Let's Do Lunch for 595.00 pesos ($10.26). Carmina asked for vegetable soup and Bikini sandwich which is ham and mozzarella cheese with potato chips. There is an unlimited calamansi but decided to pay additional for a Coke to share with Mom Violy. Mom Violy wasn't sure what she wanted ended up eating Gambas al Ajillo and white rice. In the beginning Mom Violy thought if she ate her gambas al Ajillo with just unlimited bread from the Las Flores she won't get full. It turned out she didn't eat that much of her rice. Mom Violy also ate my vegetable soup thinking she won't like the taste. Carmina always eats vegetable soup and just wanted something light for a meal. I didn't finish my bikini san...

Flavored Squid Balls from Serenitea


Carmina's mom was asking her daughter to order her some Brown Sugar Taho from Serenitea. I didn't feel like drinking anything due I have place me on a diet.

I decided to try a snack from Serenitea and saw they have Squid Balls something I haven't eaten for a long time.

There is a choice of three pieces for PHP 89.25 ($1.79) or additional 47.25 ($ 0.94) = PHP 136.50 ($2.73) five pieces. I felt three pieces wouldn't be enough for me.


I thought there would be some type of sauce to come with it just the kind you see on the street venders in the Philippines.

After biting to it found out there is seasoning on the squid balls on the outer part I took a closer picture for you to see. It is quite spicy yet so good no wonder there is no dipping sauce now it makes sense after biting it.


I've always look forward to the snacks from Serenitea that makes me dig in to try something new.
