Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years.

Mom Violy's Craving for Sweet and Sour Lapu-Lapu from The Aristocrat Restaurant

Mom Violy last time she has eaten at The Aristocrat Restaurant was with her cousin Marigold. Sometimes we are drawn by memories places you use to eat with your relative.

When you reached a certain age people tend to remember places they have eaten in the past. The relative you use to eat out and dine at The Aristocrat Restaurant doesn't quite remember who you are.

Carmina was able to bring Mom Violy to The Aristocrat Restaurant. I was able to see one of their branches located inside the Quezon Memorial Circle at passing when looking for Mom Violy's garden needs.

Mom Violy was able to eat her favorite Sweet and Sour Lapu-Lapu.

Mom Violy asked the server how long it would take to cook. The server said twenty minutes.

Mom Violy felt she was getting hungry. Carmina had informed her why not pick an appetizer. 

Mom Violy decided to order one Ubod Fresh Lumpia and have ir sliced in the middle.

Carmina had placed her order for the Popular Filipino dishes from their menu. I had ordered their boneless chicken with java rice and atchara.

I also ordered Black Gulaman Sago for my drink and shared it with Mom Violy.

Mom Violy was happy with her meal. She had some leftover for her dinner.
