Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers.

Carmina's mom was craving pizza and asked her daughter to buy some from their favorite place before the pandemic—Pizza Hut in the Philippines. Carmina enjoys pizza but prefers it without cheese on the crust. Over the phone, Carmina's mom debated which flavor to choose. After going through the options, she decided on the Supreme pizza with beef, pepperoni, pork, mushrooms, and onions for PHP 365.00, adding a large size with a cheese-stuffed crust for an additional PHP 374.00. Carmina's mom requested less tomato sauce, as she struggles with acidity, and no onions. With added costs for the Grab driver and a tip, her mom almost backed out but finally decided to proceed with the order. Interestingly, Carmina doesn’t eat cheese-stuffed crust, and since the narrator is lactose intolerant, they also avoid it. When dining at Pizza Hut with her mom, Carmina gives her crust to her mom to enjoy. To find out where https://www.pizzahut.com.ph/home is located in your area is to click at...
