Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map. Most of my photos were from the pandemic period, a time when I could fully express myself and write about the food I enjoyed. Let's take a trip down memory lane with Carmina th...

Santiago Filipino Restaurant in the Philippines

My mom loves Filipino food and even though I am tired eating it when she craves for it you have no choice to seat down and eat it with them too. Adobo Pusit Funny Story: My mom loves eating this called, dinuguan which is made of pork blood stew. I call her vampire when she eats it and her teeth and mouth have black sauce in her mouth.  My mom loves taking pictures and I am a bad daughter making fun at her not her knowing she has stuff in her lips and teeth as she smiles I am laughing at her and she is wondering what is wrong with me as I show her after taking her pictures she tells me to delete it and not post it. I don't eat this dish ever since I was a kid I saw my mom cook this before ever since I called, it vampire food and when I was a kid she called, it chocolate meat.    Dinuguan For your reference for more information on Santiago Filipino Restaurant: https://www.facebook.com/kainkapekwento

Mizuumi Buffet in California

You will notice we love to eat out and still don't get fat when we eat is what all our friends always ask us how do you stay the way you look and still be able to eat any where when you travel. The secret is eating enough but minimize how much you eat when you’re at the restaurant. It is alright to eat a lot just need to balance what you eat when you dine in a buffet restaurant. You will not run out of food when you eat at an all you can eat there is enough food for everyone. I remember when I use to go to a buffet restaurant with a relative who wasn't use to this type of restaurant his plate was full thinking the restaurant would run out of food. He only had one plate not thinking you can change your plate every time. As we explained to our relative who was new at it he then understood the concept eating at a buffet. As you have master eating at the buffet what your family love to eat at you learn how to eat proper way My mom wanted to eat s...
