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. Upon entering the person asked if we had any reservations however, they do except walk as well was seated at the table of our choice.  The person had handed us the menu. Beverages Menu Bread and butter were served after we had placed our order. Our appetizer was the Mamou's Bacon Steak. Mom Violy decided to order her lobster tail with rice.

Haw Flakes


Being a kid we use our imagination during kindergarten and grade school. We played outside with our neighbors who had kids the same age.

I remember we used card board to make a house in our drive way. We used our dolls and toys to decorate our home.

The food we use was whatever we had in our food pantry by asking permission from our own parents.

I remember we pretended we went to attend church someone had dress up being the priest and a nun. 

My parents had some haw flakes and we pretended that was the bread to serve during our pretend mass.


The color may not be white being small and round made us resemble what the priest had fed us during our mass during our imagination we didn't care what it was made.

When I was young my parents always ate lunch at China Town in San Francisco after our meal we would walk around to shop around to bring food back home. I love eating the Haw Flakes rolled up and eating each circle shape giving you a tart taste in your mouth.

It was the common candy sold in China Town and being a kid you eat any candy that allow your own parents let you eat when you can.

I grew up with both parents being very strict. I grew up being a picky kid.
