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.

My sister had requested me to
order my mom a birthday cake and have it dedicated to her children due being

I was able to order online and have it delivered to our home this

This is my greatest advantage living in the Philippines just click
and orders to have everything arrive in your home all you need to do is pay for

Only thing I can do is have my mom enjoy her special day even if
it is only the two of us the thought of my mom having an enjoyable time is what
really counts from anyone is to spend time with your parents and family member
during our time on our pandemic months.
Why Nana?
My mom doesn't want to be call Grandmother or Lola she said those
names make her sound old. Everyone has their own preference on names when they
reach that point when you have your own Grandkids.
Note:
Carmina is not selling or advertising for Red Ribbon Bakery just a place where my mom love to eat her cake.
