When Mom Violy spotted Crisostomo’s handwritten menu, something in her chest lit up: home-style lumpia, sinigang steaming in clay pots—could this be the comfort food she’d been missing?

Carmina informed Mom Violy that she would visit her home on Saturday, November 8, 2025. She asked if Mom Violy wanted to go out for lunch and mentioned needing to do some grocery shopping due to an upcoming big storm. Mom Violy suggested trying Crisostomo, a Filipino restaurant inside Robinsons Magnolia. Carmina forwarded the menu for her to choose what she wanted to eat, while Carmina already knew her order. I chose pork barbeque served in a set of three pieces with a vinegar dipping sauce.

Have you've tasted Jack Daniel Old 7 Brand Tennessee Whiskey Mixed with Coca-Cola?

Everyone who knows me within my friends they know Carmina is not a drinker. My face gets red, heartbeat goes rapidly and allergies from my skin.

I saw this at the grocery store at Builtamart. I gave it to someone whose birthday was coming up. They are over 21 so no need to worry.

Listen to the pro who drinks don't ask me since I am not one of them.

The person drank said it kind of taste worse than drinking Dr. Pepper. 🤣
