Mom Violy's Birthday Lunch at Mamou, Gateway 2

Carmina asked Mom Violy what kind of food she would like to eat for her upcoming birthday. Mom Violy said she was craving for a restaurant that serves steak and lobster. Carmina gave Mom Violy a list of restaurants for her to decide with a link of the websites for her to see which one look something she would like to try. One week before Mom Violy's birthday she made her final choice where she would like to try  Mamou . Carmina had picked up Mom Violy at her home before heading to Gateway 2 located in Cubao, Quezon City. Mamou is located ground floor inside Gateway 2.

Expired Food

I was just cleaning and organizing my in-law’s refrigerator with Manang Vcenta and I came across yogurt that has been expired from last year on the month of November and December.

I get stuck eating Filipino food because I am living with my family and I have no choice to eat what is served at the table. My sister and her family members love buying food from differe
