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. Upon entering the person asked if we had any reservations however, they do except walk as well was seated at the table of our choice. The person had handed us the menu. Beverages Menu Bread and butter were served after we had placed our order. Our appetizer was the Mamou's Bacon Steak. Mom Violy decided to order her lobster tail with rice. Carmina had ordered Beer Battered Fish and Malt Vinegar with choice of pot
Down the road when you don't have a car access to use on the day you would like to do a little grocery shopping.
Carmina had received a SMS message from her best friend on her temporary mobile phone asking if we can meet today in the afternoon.
Carmina was excited and message back if she can do a favor and bring me to the grocery store.
Carmina's best friend message her up letting her know when she was close by for her to go out.
For those who don't know Mask was Reinstated to wear in Alameda, California having high risk of Covid issues Carmina had no problem wearing a face mask since we have trained ourselves living in the Philippines.
Carmina's face mask is fully covered given by Auntie Marissa when we've run out of mask someone gives you a lot to use.
Food Maxx where groceries are inexpensive there is a sign at the door face mask is needed to do your shopping and those who are not wearing one there is a cashier who will go in front of you asking where your face mask is.
People may look at you who don't have one just to follow and obey the rules it is a must to protect the strangers who are around you.
Carmina and her best friend just shared one shopping cart by keeping either the right or left to what we are purchasing.
Carmina was able to purchase Mom Violy's roasted chicken that she has been craving for among her banana, plum and nectarine.
Carmina wanted to eat some ramen cup noodle soup but didn't quite see the ones we are familiar too decided to try something new.
Grocery shopping in California is different from doing it in the Philippines. Carmina saw so many products of food never seen or heard about before asking her best friend if she was aware of it being new to her.
Carmina also found some Cinnabon raisin bread which she didn't know they sold it here in California.
Carmina hasn't eaten chips for a long time decided to purchase her favorite Hawaiian Kettle Style Potato Chips Luau BBQ.
It will take years for Carmina to get use to the products sold inside Food Maxx.
All I can say walking inside is very cold even if it is summer outside if you're like me you need a thin jacket during that time Carmina had no jacket to wear.
Check out is optional if you want to do self-check in which we did since there were only two cashiers available.
Here are the prices at Food Maxx to those who are curious how much the expenses made in California.
