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...
Carmina had a family member ask what to eat for lunch since the kitchen was being disinfected and we couldn’t cook. The family member had recently started a diet, and Carmina suggested eating something healthier instead of resorting to fast food. When Carmina asked if they wanted sandwiches, I started naming various places, but the person kept saying no. I then suggested the Vietnamese sandwiches we usually enjoy when dining out. The family member agreed, and we decided to revisit a spot we had tried in the past. Since the family member isn’t a fan of vegetables, I always order the veggies and sauce on the side. My friend, who is knowledgeable about exercise and health, recommends incorporating protein into a diet. Following that advice, we chose the Protein Monster, which includes Vietnamese BBQ pork, ham, roasted pork, and omelets, with other ingredients like pâté, cucumber, pickled radish and carrots, mayo, hoisin sauce, and cilantro served on the side. It costs PHP 159.00 for a Junior Size or PHP 229.00 ($4.58) for a Full Size.
Lemongrass Chicken includes Vietnamese BBQ chicken, served with sides like pâté, cucumber, pickled radish and carrots, mayonnaise, hoisin sauce, and cilantro. The Junior Size is priced at PHP 109.00, with an additional PHP 80.00, making the total cost PHP 189.00 ($3.78).
The Classic includes Vietnamese ham, roast pork, carrots, mayo, hoisin sauce, cilantro, pâté, cucumber, and pickled radish and carrots. It costs PHP 109.00 for the Junior size, or you can pay an extra PHP 80.00 for the Full size, totaling PHP 189.00 ($3.78).
With no electricity for three hours in the Philippines and relying only on a generator at home, a cold drink became a necessity. For someone on a diet, it turned into a small cheat day with a large caramel drink priced at PHP 159.00 ($3.18).
Vietnamese Sandwich was all wrapped up and secured when it had arrived in a paper sleeve.
