Dive into a seafood spectacle — see the lobster up close and celebrate James & Carmina’s birthdays at Fresh International, Solaire Resort.

While traveling around the world, the family visited the Philippines and decided to combine a double birthday dinner with James. In our chat group, we discussed which restaurants we’d like to dine at, and Mom Violy has been eager to try the all-you-can-eat lobster her best friend recommended at Solaire. Carmina took charge of making the reservation through Solaire's Resort  website and asked the family which seating time they preferred, choosing between two options with different time frames. Carmina registered it under Mom Violy's name and phone number. She received an email for our confirmation, and a week beforehand, a reminder was sent to Mom Violy's mobile to confirm if we were going ahead or not.

Carmina's New Version Bacon Carbonara Recipe

Someone once informed me that they don't add any cream or milk in their bacon carbonara. I decided to try what I had in my kitchen. Carmina's New Version Bacon Carbonara Recipe Ingredients: Cooked Bacon (chopped up) Any type of pasta noodles (drained and cooked) Any cheese (shredded) Any brand (butter) 4 Pieces of Eggs (scrambled) Black Pepper to taste Salt to taste Cooking Instructions: Cook the pasta noodles while it was in boiling water being cooked. I went ahead and started scrambling four pieces of eggs in a bowl using a fork.  I had sprinkled some black pepper and salt to the eggs. The pasta noodles were already drained and cooked place it in a container began transferring the eggs, butter and shredded cheese together.  I add the chopped-up bacon mixing it together. It was very easy to those who didn't have that many ingredients in their home. NOT SPONSORED. Subscribe @ Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel  a place to look, discover and share.
