Dive into a seafood spectacle — see the lobster up close and celebrate James & Carmina’s birthdays at Fresh International, Solaire Resort.

While traveling around the world, the family visited the Philippines and decided to combine a double birthday dinner with James. In our chat group, we discussed which restaurants we’d like to dine at, and Mom Violy has been eager to try the all-you-can-eat lobster her best friend recommended at Solaire. Carmina took charge of making the reservation through Solaire's Resort  website and asked the family which seating time they preferred, choosing between two options with different time frames. Carmina registered it under Mom Violy's name and phone number. She received an email for our confirmation, and a week beforehand, a reminder was sent to Mom Violy's mobile to confirm if we were going ahead or not. Carmina replied to the SMS since Mom Violy wasn’t sure how to do it. We were told to arrive fifteen minutes before our scheduled entry time, which was 5:30 p.m. on February 12, 2026. When we arrived, we were informed we couldn’t enter the dining area until exactly 5:30 p.m...

Dinner with Amy at Marzano Restaurant in Piedmont, California



How does it feel when you've reconnected back with your childhood best friend?

Walking out your home and seeing your best friend outside of her car ready to give you a big hug is a welcome back to our new friendship.

Carmina was so excited and not able to picture Amy how she would look even if you have seen pictures of her and the family.

Seeing a person is different.

Amy asked Carmina what she wanted to eat for dinner.

Moment like this we don't need to be picky because we really just want to catch up on what has been going on after our college years.

Everyone goes through friendship when we are separating ourselves to what career we want to get us into for the future.

Amy decided to eat at Marzano Restaurant.

Marzano Restaurant has no parking where you can park from the neighborhood.

Someone will approach you asking whether you would like to dine out provided with a heater when windy in the evening or dine inside where the front door is completely open.

Carmina decided to dine inside when seeing Amy had no jacket with her.

Carmina asked Amy to order for us since she has Italina blood made it easier because in my mind I was still in shock seeing my childhood best friend in front of me.

Amy had ordered us from the Antipasti (appetizers)

Crisp Fried Green Tomatoes



Sopressate (pizza)



Amy and I couldn't finish our dinner giving us leftovers.

After dining at Marzano Restaurant gives you a chance to walk outside and keep catching up what we both missed.

Till than Carmina will be visiting next year we'll still have time to catch up with each other.
