Dive into a seafood spectacle — see the lobster up close and celebrate James & Carmina’s birthdays at Fresh International, Solaire Resort.

While traveling around the world, the family visited the Philippines and decided to combine a double birthday dinner with James. In our chat group, we discussed which restaurants we’d like to dine at, and Mom Violy has been eager to try the all-you-can-eat lobster her best friend recommended at Solaire. Carmina took charge of making the reservation through Solaire's Resort  website and asked the family which seating time they preferred, choosing between two options with different time frames. Carmina registered it under Mom Violy's name and phone number. She received an email for our confirmation, and a week beforehand, a reminder was sent to Mom Violy's mobile to confirm if we were going ahead or not. Carmina replied to the SMS since Mom Violy wasn’t sure how to do it. We were told to arrive fifteen minutes before our scheduled entry time, which was 5:30 p.m. on February 12, 2026. When we arrived, we were informed we couldn’t enter the dining area until exactly 5:30 p.m...

Lemon Cola

We know by now that every time Manang V drinks alcohol her chaser is always coke this time around it has a different flavor with a hint of lemon. I was able to try it and take a sip is there no lemon taste. I only taste the coke from it. Manang V said there was an after taste when she tried drinking it alone before pouring her alcohol beverage. One reason I prefer someone else trying the products I purchase online to see what other people would feel from all our taste buds being all different than others I have friends who tell me I am lucky that I can pay new items that is new to everyone and the benefit living in an Asia Countries items becomes available in our area for places you end up shopping for it the great part of doing your food ventures. I made my purchase from  Shop Icon Online Shop in Shopee  sold for PHP 54.00 ($1.08) made from Hong Kong. Note: I am not selling Coca-Cola Lemon or advertising from Shop Icon Online Shop in Shopee.

Hot & Spicy Potato Chips

Manang V and Rodelo are drinking their alcohol beverage I gave them some chips to munch away. I asked Manang V what she thought of the Calbee Hot & Spicy Potato Chips. Manang V said it reminded of the Jack n Jill Chippy Barbecue Corn Chips made local in the Philippines only comparison this is made of potato. It is not hot and spicy at all to me it taste like barbecue flavoring on the potato chips. I thought maybe it was just me but Manang V also felt the same way after eating the chips in her mouth. Rodelo said it wasn't spicy at all for him. For all the spicy chips I have tried this is the first time it wasn't anything what it had said on the package. I had purchase Calbee Hot & Spicy Potato Chips at  Shop Icon Online Shopping in Shopee  for the price of PHP 141.00 ($2.82).

New Suntory Strong Zero Tri Peach

Today is Sunday for us in the Philippines and every end of the weekend I would give Manang V some alcohol to try to taste test for her to try. Manang V and Rodelo had half of a glass to see what their comparison would be in how the New Suntory Strong Zero Tri Peach had taste to them. Manang V said it taste like wine with a taste of peach. Rodelo just kept saying it was strong even if he is a person who drinks other alcohol beverages. To me from a sip of it had a strong taste that felt it was a medicine after taste. I am not a drinker so it may taste different than other people. One reason I asked Manang V and Rodelo to taste to see what was different from what I had felt from it. The reason I felt there was an after taste from the New Suntory Strong Zero Tri Peach it is low in sugar of 0.05%. Being 9% of alcohol was strong for me who only drink from 3% to 5% although for someone who drinks other alcohol beverages it was strong for Manang V and Rodelo. New Suntory Strong Zero T...
