Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

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. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all. Each order comes in its own green plastic bag with a table...

Simply Cheetos Puffs White Cheddar and Simply Organic Doritos White Cheddar Tortilla Chips

Carmina's has a new Organic Chip she prefers to eat with her sandwiches. It doesn't necessary have to bad for you with your favorite brand of chips now they call it the Simply Organic where you can eat Cheetos Puffs and Doritos just in White Cheddar. Carmina's favorite is the Simply Cheetos Puffs White Cheddar. Carmina was able to fool someone who loves to eat the regular Nacho Cheese Doritos but serving them the Simply Organic Doritos Cheddar Cheese. The person is not health conscious although they were able to finish the bag in one seating. If the person doesn't know it is good for them it is not a bad thing at all. Carmina made her purchase at  Builtamart  for the Simple Cheetos White Cheddar PHP 169.00 ($3.13) and Simply Doritos White Cheddar PHP 179.00 ($3.51) not including delivery fee and tip to the rider.

11" Super Chicken Gyros in Pita Bread from Oh My Greek

Carmina's favorite food from Mediterranean is gyros. It can be any type of meat to explore eating Greek.  The best part when you cannot enter inside a restaurant while being on lockdown. You can have it delivered to your location. Oh my! What a huge Chicken Gyros! Carmina has never seen something that was 11" Super Chicken Gyros in Pita Bread that taste delicious with all the flavoring from the chicken, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and fries PHP 292.00 ($5.73). Carmina had requested the sauce to be on the side prevent having it get soggy being delivered from Grab Food Philippines. Carmina wanted to treat herself from a busy day by ordering a dessert of Loukoumades Honey & Cinnamon. It was a bit oily when holding on to it although it was soft when you bite into the loukoumades. There was cinnamon powdered on the loukoumades with honey to dip into it for PHP 109.00 ($2.14). Just a donut version the Greek way.

Carmina was able to go back and try the Hot Star Large Fried Chicken that Mom Violy couldn't remember what she ate seven years ago. How do you want to eat your Hot Star Large Fried Chicken?  Do you prefer XXL Crispy Chicken Ala Carte thigh part, Chicken Subwich or Chicken Wingettes? Carmina's favorite is the Chicken Wingettes you have an option for 5 or 10 pieces with or without fries. You have an option to pick from the following flavoring Salt & Pepper, Chili Pepper, BBQ, Spicy BBQ and Teriyaki.  Carmina had ordered 5 Pieces Chicken Wingettes BBQ Flavored with Fries and gravy comes for your dipping sauce for PHP 219.00 ($4.29). Chicken Wingettes remind Carmina the chicken wings that Mom Violy use to buy that come frozen all you need is fry it at home in the deep fryer. Carmina went back to memory lane. The best part the Chicken Wingettes were crispy when it had arrived even if there was barbecue flavoring on it and the fries. XXL Crispy Chicken Salt & Pepper Flavorin...
