Butterflied Pla Pla with Buto and Mustasa from Manam Comfort Filipino

  When you have family friends who have informed you that they will be visiting the Philippines.  The common is that they will inform you when they would be in town. Upon their arrival after having many activities they will inform you when they are free to see you. Carmina had message Tita Edita that we would like to treat them for lunch along with Mom Violy. Tita Edita had informed me that her son and husband Tito Rozel would also be coming. It wasn't a problem for us it would great to see them again. The day was approaching for our bonding moment. Tita Edita asked if we would like to have lunch or dinner. Mom Violy said lunch works better for her.  Tita Edita said sounds good lunch on October 4, 2024.

Mom Violy decided to make the lunch be at  Manam Comfort Filipino  inside Robinsons Magnolia. Mom Violy made sure she would arrive early to make the reservat

Turkey Breast Beretta from Quezon City Deli

Carmina wanted to eat only sandwiches for the week and decided upon buying her cold cuts at a new place. Usually I would purchase my cold cuts from a grocery store using the Metro Mart application on my phone. I saw that there is a Quezon City Deli that has ingredients to make a sandwich. I figure why not try to order there for the first time. I haven't eaten turkey breast for a long time. It is my favorite cold cut back home. I have avocado that has been ripen up can be added to my sandwich. I've tried several time to order Turkey Breast Beretta from a grocery store but it is always out of stock. Quezon City Deli they sell it per grams starting off from one hundred the amount of PHP 168.00 ($3.50). I wasn't sure how many pieces of cold cut is in 100grams. I decided upon to purchase two hundred grams since I've haven't tried the Turkey Breast Beretta. If, I do like it is easy to place an additional order in the future. There is no physical website it is just inside

BTS Meal is Available in the Philippines

BTS is here in Manila, Philippines it is not a concert where the trend goes in eating a meal at Mc Donald's to place your order is easy. You can go in person or have it delivered in your location. One month ago my sister from the United States had informed me that the BTS Meal from Mc Donald's will be available in the Philippines. My sister is a fan of the BTS Korean Band. She had informed me that she was able to try it in the United States and wanted to know if there were any items to get for free. I started my own research and found out you can download the Mc Donald's application on your phone to place an order one day ahead before it would come out to the public. I am not like my sister it didn't matter to me. I was able to get my order through Grab application in some area it is not available depending which branch it is you can place it early in the morning. The BTS Meal is standard with a 10 pieces chicken McNuggets with medium fries, medium coke

Lemon Grass Chicken Banh Mi from Pho Hoa Vietnamese Noodle House

  After hearing from your friend saying they had Pho for dinners you feel you also want to eat the same food but in a different location. People tend to copy other people just in a different way it may not be the same food you're friend has eaten but made Vietnamese is what counts the most.

Eat Your Veggies Day from Jamba Juice

My niece didn't tell us what was in her salad before she had offered us her leftover. I remember the first time I had tried kale was from my niece from my California trip three years ago. My niece was on a diet being at that stage you fall into being a teenager. My mom had tried it first my mom gave that face worse part there was no drink during that time. I had to look for a place that sold beverages as we're walking around. My mom and I didn't know what kale had tasted in a salad. My niece asked me to finish the salad only thing I didn't like was her salad dressing she had in it. I saw Jamba Juice being humid in the Philippines and was curious how it would taste if it we're a beverage. The best part it is combined with apples and kale after drinking it I cannot even taste the kale the apple is stronger by taste. It is cool I can drink my veggies through a straw and still being healthy for me. The advantages it on sale at Jamba Juice called Eat Your Veggies Day for
