Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand.

You can control yourself in what you eat and what you feel is enough to make yourself full. You can slowly train your stomach to eat less by doing it gradually not to make yourself fatigue. Carmina had removed milk tea, soda, concentrated juice, ice-cream, donut and chips. It all went away slowly until we no longer crave...

Shrimp Pad Thai in a Box Budget Meal

Carmina is on a budget since her salary hasn't arrived yet. Craving something different but still diet-friendly, she decided to add noodles to her meal. She came across Pad Thai in a Box on social media and checked out their offerings. Reviews mentioned the food was affordable and tasty. You can choose between Chicken or Shrimp for your Pad Thai. For less than PHP 300.00, including the Grab Food delivery fee, she thought, why not give it a try? Check out my video clip to see how the Shrimp Pad Thai in a Box looked when it arrived—packed in a paper bag for the Pad Thai and a plastic bag for the Thai Milk Tea. Carmina transferred the Shrimp Pad Thai from the box to check how much serving it would provide for a Budget Pad Thai Meal priced at PHP 235.00 ($4.70). Shrimp Pad Thai tastes amazing, and what people say about it is absolutely true. It's satisfying enough to be a full meal, especially for those on a budget, and it often comes with a refreshing Thai Milk Tea included. For y...
