Join us for a memorable family lunch at the Blackbird, nestled within the iconic Nielson Tower, where exquisite cuisine meets stunning panoramas.

Family was informed by their friends to try  Blackbird at the Nielson Tower  and asked Mom Violy if she has ever been there before. Mom Violy had no clue what it was asked Carmina to look it up and see what kind of food they serve.  Carmina gave the phone number to Mom Violy make a reservation for a family lunch. On the day of the reservation, we arrived early and were allowed to enter before the official opening time of eleven o’clock in the morning. We decided to stay in the lobby, where we were asked if we wanted anything to drink. Carmina took videos inside and learned about the history by talking to the staff. One hour later, people started coming into the restaurant and took their seats at the reservation table, browsing the menu to decide what to order. Our family members were running late, but we didn’t get bored thanks to the friendly staff. More customers kept arriving and placing their orders, and we couldn’t help but glance at their dishes, curious about what ...

US Variety Muffin

Carmina was able to purchase US variety muffin in S&R which is like a Costco in the United States that sells products that are imported in other countries in wholesale price. Carmina's mom is missing baked goods from California her daughter is still able to find it and purchase it for her having a US variety muffin that is in one plastic container. Carmina's mom favorite is always the chocolate ones and blueberry muffin. This time around Carmina gets to keep the ones her mom doesn't want to eat from the US variety muffin container.

New Hostess Twinkies, Ding Dong and Honey Bun Iced Latte

Carmina had discovered Hostess Twinkies, Ding Dong and Honey Bun Iced Latte version when she was placing her order through Metro Mart application in S&R Philippines. After checking what were the new items that became available in S&R I was thinking is there really such a drink and I couldn't stop putting my eye on them. Carmina grew up eating Hostess Twinkies, Ding Dong and Honey Bun when she was young living in California. There use to be a branch in the Bay Area where there was a discounted store near our dentist use to be when she was in high school. My mom would bring my sister and I there to buy our bread and baked goods for our breakfast and snacks to bring to school. Too bad the baked goods are too expensive to purchase in the Philippines sold elsewhere although the cool part I can drink the latte version. Carmina was telling her friends in California if they ever heard of Hostess Twinkies, Ding Dong and Honey Bun the Iced Latte. Her friends in California had no clue...
