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. I skipped rice and opted for lumpiang hubad, fresh lumpia without a wrapper, topped with peanut sauce. Mom Violy initially craved the classic Pinoy paella, but when it wasn’t available, she decided on sinigang na baboy with an extra serving of rice. A family member chose sisig with garlic rice. Carmina enjoyed her meal with Mom Violy and particularly liked the lumpiang hubad , though she kept wondering why it had no wrapper. I explained that it’s called "naked" because it’s served witho...
I just remember something that had happened when we flew
back to Manila from Australia apparently we had flew Philippine Airlines and
our flight was fully booked when we came home. When they we’re at the process
and announced they will be serving our meal and was handed the menu before our
meal had arrived.
By, the time our food came to us and we are seated in number
45 and they ran out of food and we had to choose Chicken Adobo which my mom
cannot eat chicken due to her allergies and my mom than complained not having
enough food for those who we’re last to eat.
My mom had informed them what happens to someone like me who
cannot eat certain food what food can you improvise for me to eat than the
chicken adobo.
Mistake #1:
We’re informed by the head you need to inform your travel
agent once you have booked your flight that you are allergic to certain food
and should notify the airlines.
Mistake #2:
When they had announced they will be serving the meals my
mom should have informed them ahead of time to give her meal ahead of other
passengers.
At this point the flight attendant on duty gave her meal to
my mom and they swap their meals.
Based on my mom’s experience it is best to inform your
travel agent so they can put a note and there will be away to inform them ahead
of time.
Even if my mom claimed she always ridden with the airlines
and it just happened the first time it was still her fault but at this point
when you’re old you will not accept your own mistake.
I just felt sorry for the flight attendant that was very
nice enough to give her meal over someone who demands for her food or else she
would have made a big scene inside the plane.
