What made Mom Violy step out of her comfort zone and try Las Flores for lunch?

  Mom Violy wanted to try Spanish food from  Las Flores  at Robinsons Magnolia . I remembered long time ago saw a family friend when my family was visiting beginning of the year. Mom Violy couldn't remember decided to have our lunch. Carmina decided to try out their Let's Do Lunch for 595.00 pesos ($10.26). Carmina asked for vegetable soup and Bikini sandwich which is ham and mozzarella cheese with potato chips. There is an unlimited calamansi but decided to pay additional for a Coke to share with Mom Violy. Mom Violy wasn't sure what she wanted ended up eating Gambas al Ajillo and white rice. In the beginning Mom Violy thought if she ate her gambas al Ajillo with just unlimited bread from the Las Flores she won't get full. It turned out she didn't eat that much of her rice. Mom Violy also ate my vegetable soup thinking she won't like the taste. Carmina always eats vegetable soup and just wanted something light for a meal. I didn't finish my bikini san...

Open Face Fita Sandwich Recipes

Carmina decided to make her own meal for a change but in order to do it she needed to purchase her ingredients. Lately she has been craving for pastrami cold cuts to make a sandwich and for places she tried hasn't suited the taste. Carmina found that S&R had new items available in stock. I had ordered S&R Beef Pastrami for PHP 213.45 ($4.45) sold per kilo grams.  The price says PHP 779.00 ($16.65) per kilo kind of miss leading and came out to be less than what you expected from the price given online. To me I am grateful it wasn't as expensive to what I had expected it to be. Rather than purchasing bread came up ordering S&R Greek Fita & Flat Bread Whole Wheat for PHP 129.00 ($2.69). Someone who is on a diet came across a gold mind in eating something new for awhile. It is easy to make a fita bread sandwich at home. Fita Sandwich Recipes Ingredients: Any cold cuts of your choice or any type of meat as long it is shredded or sliced thinly Add any type of vegetabl...

Hawaiian Chicken Java Rice Bowl from Reyes Barbecue

Carmina use to eat Reyes Barbecue with visitors who use to come over from the United States during the month of January to March. I had an Uncle who loved to eat their boneless barbecue chicken and java rice through the years he has passed away for medical reasons. He was like another father to me. Today I decided to eat boneless chicken from Reyes Barbecue and came up ordering a whole boneless Chicken Ala Carte PHP 870.00 ($18.12). To top it up Carmina found a Hawaiian Chicken Java Rice Bowl from Reyes Barbecue for PHP 155.00 ($3.23) not including handling fee and tip to the rider. The best part is that Carmina had added her Sweet Baby Ray's Hawaiian Style Barbecue Sauce to her meal to taste the Hawaiian flavoring.
