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 replied to the SMS since Mom Violy wasn’t sure how to do it. We were told to arrive fifteen minutes before our scheduled entry time, which was 5:30 p.m. on February 12, 2026. When we arrived, we were informed we couldn’t enter the dining area until exactly 5:30 p.m...

Not Forgeting

The reason why I said, not forgetting doesn't mean to forget all the bad things that has happened to your past life. But, not to forget all the good memories you had shared with someone that means a lot to you. Sometimes we forget to feel happy, to smile, laugh out loud and just be silly to be so carefree. People tend to be so serious with their life and they forget to have time to enjoy the moment not to be so serious. I always tell my staff that they should relax, unwind and enjoy themselves. I've always told them being serious only makes you have a raisin face. Why raisin because raisin is all wrinkled up. When we have wrinkles on our face we look older than what we are not. I don't have a raisin face because I am not always serious. I have learn to enjoy life even if there is a problem. I can solve it, but being so serious and stressing something out doesn't make you look beautiful or handsome. I am a jolly person who makes people laugh even if they are hav...

Work

I hear from people saying they are tired from their work. They say they are all stressed out. I always replied back you are the one stressing yourself out because you we’re the one who choose to pick that career. People tell me they are stressed from too much work load. I always reply why not hire someone to help you out. Is it worth it if you handle that entire work load? Are you happy when you’ve got your table filled up with files of paper that hasn’t been sorted out? Life is just like your work you need to list down and lay out what you want to accomplish. We love to work. But too much work make us too tired to look at the surrounding revolved around us. Sometimes we take life for granted. We work so hard and the money you earn cannot go with you when you die. You need to enjoy the money you earn. You need to sort out the mess on your table to see how your life will become once it is all cleared up. It is never too late to change how you run y...

This is a popular dish that has comes across from the Philippines and any country who love to eat with no plates and utensils known as boodle fight. This is common from a traditional Filipino in the providences where they use banana leaf as your plate and your hands as your utensils. Boodle fight has food all stack on a banana leaf that is place on a table just like what you normally do when you serve food.  Foods are served on a boodle fight: Rice Anything Grilled Anything Fried Cooked Vegetables Fresh Fruits Note: Just no food that has sauce which is place in a bowl The advantage it is the best way with big crowds of people to fit on your table and the best part the only thing you need to wash are your hands after eating. No need to worry about washing plates or washing utensils. The only thing you need is to provide plastic cups for drinking water and napkins.
