Dimsum love

We always pass by DEC Greenhills to get some dimsum.

Coldcuts


Honest to goodness siomai! Only P150 for 14 pcs!


Shrimp-filled hakaw! P180 for 12 pcs.

I have to tell you, we've eaten a LOT of siomai and hakaw from different places and for the price, DEC's is one of the best! You can tell that by the people going there too. If you see a lot of chinky eyed fellas, you know it's good.

If you know other delis that have good dimsum, do tell. :)

Froyo baby!

Since I tortured my teeth by eating all those local junkfood for our class (dentist just added powerchains to my extractions yesterday that makes chewing SO PAINFUL) and almost burned my tongue from eating that extremely hot congee at Dave's tea house (it still stings up to now), I had to go to yoh-gurt froz to relieve myself from all those self-inflicted pain!

here's my frozen yogurt with blueberry kiwi cheesecake


this one is my friend's. it's blueberry cheesecake with chocolate syrup!

Small is P80 + P40 (for three top-ins) = P120 total :)
It's so nice to finally have a healthy (YET EXPENSIVE) alternative to icecream. <3

Chips galoooore!

Look at what marketing majors do!

WE EAT!


and EAT


and EAT

AND EAT!!!

I wasn't even able to take pictures of the other batches of chips because I was too busy munching myself! We also had Lays, Cheetos, Tostitos and Combos.

We were REQUIRED to taste and rate all the flavors of imported chips that are in the market (which was impossible but we did our best HAHA). Next meeting we'll be having local chips! Life is good. :)

AVATAR at SM North Edsa

I have finally watched Avatar! IT IS EPIC! JAMES CAMERON IS AWESOME. I promised my dad I'll watch it with him and I wanted to see it on IMAX. It keeps on getting postponed because we were lazy to buy tickets in advance. We decided to watch it on a weekday so that there will be less people. Good thing I don't have MWF classes and that my dad's office is basically his phone.

For a weekday there sure were a lot of people watching! We got there just in time for the trailers. I love watching trailers and I was especially giddy because it's in 3D.

IMAX lobby




Inside the theater. Taken using my cam phone hence the poor quality.

Since the movie is basically pure awesomeness, I'll just give my thoughts on the moviehouse! SM North Edsa's IMAX screen is not as big as the typical IMAX screens. At SM MOA, it's best to sit at the last row of the cinema. But at North Edsa, I think we made a mistake and should have chosen seats at the middle row. We didn't feel the 'swallowing' experience an IMAX cinema should have given us. No biggie though. I'm just wondering how different it is from normal 3D. The last 3D movie I saw was Spy Kids and our 3D glasses were made from cardboard and cellophane back then.

Oh thanks to Citibank's movie promo. We got P260 slashed of our ticket prices. Pretty good huh? Too bad the promo is over.

Zensho Tomas Morato

Zensho is one of my favorite "eat all you can" Japanese restaurants. I remember having a discount card waaaay back because my grade school tutormate is the son of the owner. I think they were still promoting the restaurant at the time. (now that I computed it, that was almost 10 years ago. O.O How time flies..) Two years ago we went there because of their 'order all you can' promo. Ever since then we go back there every so often!

Here's an old photo from the first time we dined here.

We were supposed to eat at Yakimix today but I wasn't looking forward to it because I've already eaten there twice this month. I was just so happy when the restaurant was full and we were 7th in line. So off we went to Zensho! :)

Zensho's sunday lunch buffet costs P485++ per person. Unlike most buffets, it's "order all you can" so the food is served ala carte. We got there at around 11:30 AM and there were a lot of reserved tables. So if you want to eat at tables with the teppanyaki grill you have to reserve beforehand.

We started off with their mixed sashimi. Unfortunately, you can only order sashimi this way. There were no solo sashimi orders. It's a mix of salmon, cuttlefish, tuna, blue marlin and crabstick.

FORTUNATELY, we were able to request salmon sashimi only! We had to talk to the manager because they were pretty strict about it.

Mixed sushi. Nothing special really.

I forgot what they called this. I call it green tea cold noodles! Don't forget to add that orange spice because it gives the noodles character. :)

Oyster Motoyaki. My favorite dish of all! BUTTERY GOODNESS!

Ebi Tempura. Their tempura is much better than Saisaki's and Yakimix'.


Oyster Teppanyaki. It looks kinda gross but I like it!


Yakitori


Steak teppanyaki! We also had lamb chops tepanyaki, Unfortunately, everyone attacked it before it was even photographed. Hahaha. Order your steak and lambchops medium so that they're soft and juicy. :)


Sukiyaki. This hot sweet and salty soup removes all the umay from my tongue!


Daddy loves his UNI. This isn't included in the buffet though. It costs P190 which is not bad considering that it's HUGE! I remember Teriyaki Boy's uni, it was tiny like me and it costs a little less.

We also had kani salad, california maki, tofu, yaki udon, lamb chop shioyaki, lamb chop teppanyaki.

Dining here is worth every penny. The only downside for me is that they don't have dessert. I always crave for something sweet after eating all those tasty food. Good thing there's yoh-gurt froz on the other side of the street. :)

Overnight at Tropical Hut Sta. Lucia

We were assigned to go to Tropical Hut Sta. Lucia to observe for 24 hours as a class requirement. It was something I deemed unnecessary but my groupmates were all giddy about it so I agreed to take the night shift which was from 8pm to 8am.

It was a pretty neat experience except for the fact that the guard constantly approached us for using their electrical socket (which isn't allowed) and playing pusoy dos (which is ALSO not allowed). SERIOUSLY. I AM NEVER EATING AT TROPICAL HUT AGAIN! Well, it's not like I even do.

Thankfully McDonalds has FREE Wifi that is accessible to us at Tropical Hut. Love ko to! :)

Me, Haze and Jamie
