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. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side.

Carmina Exploring inside the Quezon City Memorial Circle

How long have you lived in Quezon City?

Carmina has migrated to the Philippines fifteen years ago.

There are places I've never had the chance to explore. 

Being able to have time to explore comes around places that are not expensive. There are actually places in the area of Quezon City that can take you places where money is not an issue.

From my observation inside Quezon City Memorial Circle there are different types of food based on your budget.

Entering inside if you are being accompany from a senior citizen/ PWD card holder parking is free all you need to do is present it to a small booth approaching the gate. They will just look at it to see if the person is inside the car.

There are a lot of parking inside.

Those who love to do gardening there is sections where you can purchase your garden needs. If you don't know where it is located there are two gates of the circle. 

The first gate is toward Quezon Avenue where the restaurants are located such as Max Fried Chicken, Aristocrat Restaurant, and many more.

The second gate is where the area to purchase your garden supplies. Just ask the security guard where it is located.

Mom Violy had enjoyed herself shopping for her garden needs. 

I was able to enjoy walking around where there was Christmas decorations around a section where the garden supplies, we're located.





The place can be really hot best to wear a hat to those who cannot tolerate the sun.

Most people go to the Quezon City Memorial Circle to do their daily exercise. I've heard they also have free Zumba. 

Becky has informed Carmina one of these days she'll be my tour guide to show me around the Quezon Memorial Circle.
