BR does seafood!

we've officially gotten accustomed to eating out for free almost twice a month now. all thanks to the random rewards and recognition stuff we have scattered all over. we're not complaining.

i've actually lost track of why we have money to spend on food. but when we do, i make sure we spend it wisely! haha. so i click-the-city-ed and looked for places. vinci pointed this one out and i think it was wise decision indeed.

seafood island is interestingly good.

they all had to wear something purple-y. i didn't get the memo.

ate micah. our honorary guest. she's welcome anytime. every time. all the time.

fearless leader.

vinci. barbie. they hungered for rice.

mary flor. hazel.

leo. he declined the seafood offer. but he had to be dragged along. and he complied, much to our happiness.

we checked out the menu beforehand and found these boodle feasts to be quite a deal. i'm really not that much into seafood but even this looked tantalizingly good. i didn't know what to expect. the seafood island we went to was just in market market. but i never really got to try it out. it looked oddly obscure from the rest of the eating places there and i'm almost tempted to judge it by the way it looked from the outside. but then huge-ass platters of seafood on beds of rice came and we all just died and went straight to rice-heaven.

something with coconut milk. it's the obligatory gata-dish.
 

lone pusit.

we had our fair share of "vegetables"

it was also sort of our welcoming to dinner to our new band 2, ate joysi! and yes, she was shocked at our appetite. among other things.

the look of utter disgust hidden in the form of shock.

whatta face ate chiqui. whatta face.

and before we knew it, we ravaged the table 'til there was nothing left.

poor tentacle and claw.

give us fifteen minutes and we'll give you this.

we capped the night of by grabbing more sweets. as if we haven't had enough food.

BR dinners are epic.

secret nooks in the fort.

the fort has gone a long way from what i remember it back when we just used it as an alternate route home. now, it's completely getting the touch of rapid development. so fast, that some places end up getting overlooked. but when you pay a little more attention, there're actually more little nooks and crannies in the fort that have yet to be discovered!


a couple of fridays ago, we wanted to have a cheap dinner out because we were thinking about getting a couple of drinks somewhere in the fort. but because the place more or less spells steep-spending on food, we were pressed to look around. and what do you know, just at the ground floor of deutsche bank building, there are a handful of food places you can choose from! i knew about this place since the early parts of last year but never really got to check out the other places. they'd always be close by the time we get there. this time, we were just in time!


so we ate in Eat Well. aptly named, if you ask me.

i don't remember anymore which one's chinese, which one's not.

cheap, clean, chinese food is always very welcome. 3 C's. the key to a happy affordable dinner. wow, i'm actually sounding like i'm advertising this place. hahaha.

just go check it out. 

nescy night. (01302010)

repost from nini.

...

it's been ages since the last time i saw nescy. so long ago that i think it was as far back as the days before i left for europe. yes. it's been that long! i even owed her money i couldn't pay cos we never see each other. she prolly should've earned interest on that. hahaha! but some things never change when nescy and i get together. it's always stories-galore. 

nescy. she's 24. but i scold her about some real-world stuff.

fat face.

we had a smorgasborg of a dinner in kebab factory somewhere in forbes town. initially, we went to the strip in front of terminal 3 thinking there'dbe food places there. well i thought there were food places there. apparently, there was only resort world and mcdo. so it was a fail effort. we headed our way back to the fort and remembered a new cafe juanita opened there! i dropped her off to go get a place for us while i parked. unfortunately, the whole place was booked for the night. for the night! and imagine, this was only a little past seven. how can they be booked for the rest of the night?? but anyway, i sort of knew we weren't gonna get in. cos i distinctly remembered, the one in kapitolyo needed reservations even on a weeknight. what more for a branch in the fort. so we ate in kebab factory instead. it wasn't bad at all. it was good kebab food actually. nescy treated me for dinner. yey! we stuffed our faces with indian rice and kebab sauce. it was horrifying how i couldn't stop myself from eating. hay. i miss my skinny self. :( i was so busy eating, i didn't even get to take pictures of our dinner. pigs. hahaha! after which, we thought it'd be a good idea to walk. so we walked all the way from forbes town to serendra. but guess what the purpose was. yes. sonja's! hahaha! more food! LOL. we did walk a good couple of kilometers. well. i think it was that long.

sonja's is love.

peppermint patty is my love. and no, it does not taste like toothpaste.

no hotdog tonight.

we caught up with sooooo many things. so much that the last time i saw her, she was different. and i mean different. hahaha! i love nescy that way. we can miss seeing each other for months but when we finally get the time to, it'd seem like the last one was the day before. oh and while we were having coffee in coffee bean, we saw mars! she kept saying i lost weight even though i totally didn't. hay. i miss college people!

we trudged through the dark class-less part of the fort. all for the love of cupcakes and african sunrise.

see you again soon nesc. don't be more different. hahahaha!
