International Women's Day - March 8

Wishing my female family members and friends, Happy Women's Day.
Don't forget to treat yourself today, okay?

Had a planned breakfast date today with my "super-(mom) friends" at Ramada Central Manila. J and I were curious about the buffet since C and I dined there about a week ago. But this time around, C had to beg off because she has tons of things on her mind. That's another kwento, for our ears only.




And because I fell in-love with the bacon and french toast during my first visit ...


... I also had my fill of watermelon.


And because its International Women's Day today, I surprised my friends with these ...


Daughter taught me how to make the cute origami boxes. :)

And inside the boxes/envelopes are these lovelies!


That's us, posing in front of the camera. With our second plates, I think. ;)


And the celebration of Women's Day continues. I haven't seen my other "mommy" group for ages now. And since they are all working in offices (except me, a stay-at-home-mom), we decided to meet up for dinner. We dropped by at the newly opened East Wing of One Shangri-La Place Mall.


But since there's still a few restos there and we don't want to wait, we headed back to trusty old "The Ledge" at Shangri-La Plaza 6L and had dinner at Crustasia.


We had yummy shrimp cakes ...


... and Catfish Salad ....


... and Pineapple Fried Rice.


And Cereal Prawns. So DELISH!



To sum it up, I really had a good day with my "girl' friends today. Hoping to see you all again --- soon! Next week maybe? ;)

Boracay's Hidden Gem: Mama's Fish House

I've always wanted to dine at Mama's Fish House in Boracay but wasn't able to for some forgotten reasons already. Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity! 

Salcedo Market x Legaspi Market Tour

We haven't visited the weekend markets for years so I was giddy with excitement because I was able to visit both Salcedo and Legaspi markets this month, thanks to our Dusit Thani Manila staycation . To differentiate the two, Salcedo market  is held every Saturday at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village Makati while Legaspi market is held every Sunday at the Corinthian Carpark in Legaspi Village Makati. Since we were coming from Dusit Thani Manila, it was quite a long walk but it was early in the morning (around 8AM) and even Ayala and Makati Avenues were still without cars. Wow!
