Short on time but craving quality? Beginning 2026, Burger & Lobster will be your fast, flavorful errand-day fix.

Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53). A family member ordered an Atomic Burger for 695.00 pesos ($11.78) along with a Lobster Mac & Cheese for 990.00 pesos ($16.78). One of the perks of everyone ordering something different is getting to sample each other’s dishes. Everyone left happy and full, with some leftovers to take home. The port...

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 ...
