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.

Libre Means Free in Tagalog

I couldn't resist ordering when the family wanted Mexican food for themselves. I thought I would be taking a break from ordering food for dinner. When someone says, Libre in Tagalog it means free food no will pass up that offer.  I am all in to try something new at El Nacho Libre checking out the menu is indecisive what to order too many Mexican dishes to chose from and if the place is right we can always order from them again is how I see it. I figured why not try the Chicken Tinga Taco's (JDV's Choice) PHP 229.00 ($4.58). Family member wanted the Chipotle Chicken Burrito for PHP 249.00 ($4.98). Family member couldn't decide what they wanted and decided upon the Pulled Pork BBQ Rice Meal  having the vegetables on the side  with a cheat day of Chocolate Cloud Shake for PHP 379.00 ($7.58). Of course everyone else followed and decided to get a dessert to top off their dinner from El Nacho Libre Kraver's Halo Halo on a humid night in the Philippines. Kraver's Halo
