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...

New Passion Fruit Smoothie at Gong Cha

Have you've ever encountered someone approach you saying they've watch a tok-tok video? The person wants you to explain what Gong Cha is. Carmina was caught off guard when standing up about to leave Gong Cha in Alameda with her high school friend. Carmina just told the guy the best seller is listed on the counter of the store. Carmina also told the guy he can also try their new beverages which she has personally tried the Passion Fruit Smoothie. Otherwise, everything else is good off their menu for you to drink. Carmina's best friend has never tried or heard of Gong Cha. Carmina mentioned how they also have Gong Cha in the Philippines. Carmina's friend was kind of surprised. We had ordered the following: Medium Size Creamy Passion Fruit Smoothie for $6.50, 50% Sweet and Pearls $0.65 = $7.15 (PHP 383.01) Medium Size Mango Smoothie $5.75, 50% Sweet and Pearls $0.65 = $6.40 (PHP 326.00) Carmina and her best friend both enjoyed their beverages being hot outside.

Carmina's Review on Sushi House in Alameda

Carmina and her high school friend have always eaten at Sushi House our traditional lunch when I am in town. Upon entering Sushi House, they are strict where you need to wear a face mask before entering the restaurant. If there is a line they provide you to sign up on the wait list since we came when they just opened we just informed how many we're to be seated. This time around Carmina didn't want to get the bento box where she went ahead and ordered the Seafood Udon when it has been cold outside. The moment you feel like eating Seafood Udon includes a garden salad. Carmina's high school had ordered three combination bento with Teriyaki Salmon, Beef and California Maki Sushi includes miso soup, garden salad and white rice. Carmina had enjoyed her Seafood Udon the serving was too big had some leftovers to take out. You'll be the one to transfer into a takeout container with a plastic bag. Leaving Sushi House it started to get busy where a lot of people we're dining ...
