Khudri Dates Fruit from Saudi and Raisin Imported from the US

One week ago my mom was telling me she wanted to have a box shipped out from the United States asking my cousin to purchase some of her belongings. My mom was asking me to search for some dates that is from Saudi. I figure why does my mom have to wait till my cousin purchase the dates from the United States and still have to wait for it to arrive taking at least one month depending if there is cargo services. My mom couldn't remember the brand of the dates she wanted to try all she can remember her brother had bought it for her before and she had liked it. Carmina went ahead started looking for the dates in the Shopee Philippines application on her phone. Carmina began sharing the pictures to her mom via-Facebook Messenger in order for her mom to decide which ones she wanted her daughter to purchase for her. Carmina's mom was able to find one she wanted to try for herself. Carmina remember her mom asking to find some Raisins for her macaroni salad she wanted to make at home. Fi

Second Time Around for Sushi Nori in the Philippines

It's almost one year I last ordered food from Sushi Nori. The second time round I was able to try something new a sushi that all my favorites inside salmon and ebi tempura what they call the premium sushi in the menu. If you want to try the Lava Sushi it is an experience it can be hard to put all in your mouth if you have a small mouth you can slice it in the middle. I've never tried a sushi like this for and someone who is into Japanese food it was an amazing experience. The Lava Sushi had arrived in a small carton after I had transferred it to a plate that is when I was able to see how it had really looked seeing the tail of the ebi and the salmon on the second picture. By the way the Lava Sushi is deep fried to keep everything in tack and it is available at UP Town Center Branch where I had mined delivered through Grab application for PHP 369.00 ($7.38). If you have a family member who only eats other Japanese dishes you will come across the same from them who don't like
