Cafe Avenue

Before New Year, my whole family decided to celebrate the New Year's at our province but since I have work at New Years Eve, i don't have any choice but to stay at home alone while they take their vacation.

Staying at home alone, means I have to tend for myself, which I may not very good. So the solution? I have to eat out everyday.

So one very early morning, when I was craving for Tapsilog, I decided to just walk around to look for restaurant that is open at 5 in the morning.

Lucky  or not, I stumbled one cafe at MCI. I was about to order their Tapsilog but then they told me that it's not available anymore.With a heavy heart, I decided to just order their burger and a Matcha drink.

The place is very relaxing nd one look an you can already tell that the owner of the Cafe is a religious. The whole place is filled with bible quotes and positive phrases. Even the songs are about Christian songs.

The place is big that they can even cater to debuts, christening and other events.

While waiting for my order, one of the servers approached me and asked if its okay that my drink wont have whipped cream on it, which  I don't mind at all.

While I was told that my drink won't have any whipped cream at all, I wasn't told that my burger wont have any veggies as well. Well, I am not a veggie lover but  I have read that my order will come with tomatoes, but then it only is pure meat..
 2 patties, ham and bun, that's it.

Though I didn't enjoy the food, and since I don't want to ruin my very early morning, I just decided to go with it.

After a while, I just decided to go home since It's already past 6 am. So I decided to go to the restroom but  before going here I told the servers to pack my left overs so I can take it home. It took me a while upstairs since there  are a lot of books and pictures to take. When I went down, I noticed that my food is still at my table, I told the servers again to have my food packed. Then they told me to bring my leftover at the counter and they'll have it packed, which I think is not the best idea since when I did that, all the other customers were looking at me, perhaps, thinking if i was one of the servers as well. Not a very good customer service there. I just didn't like the idea of leaving food since, one it will be a waster, and second, I still paid for it.

So, here's my not very nice review of Cafe Avenue.

Altamira Place

Our original plan was to try out a restaurannt in Trece Martirez cavite that offers Unlimited Wings, but my friend Abby is not craving for chicken and don't think that she'll be able to take advantage of the unlimited wings if we eat it at our breakfast, undecided, we started to walk to Robinson. Our first plan was to try out Cup and Saucer but found out that it was closed. Checking out the time, its already 9:50 and Robinsions Mall is go open in more or less 10 mins, so we just decided to have SnR instead. But being the undecided girls that we are, we just decided to eat at " instead which is just a floor above SnrR

I have been in Robinsons a lot and would usually just passed this Cafe and this is the first time I tried it. I actually thought that they only offer pastries and coffees in this cafe, but this time I earned that they have a wide variety of menu.

From waffles to pastas, to breakfast. name it, they have it. I ordered which I didn't realized will be a big serving. Even with a help from a friend, I still wasnt able to finish it.

And as for the drinks, I ordered.

My friend order waffles which I forget to take picture

The place is relaxing even though it's open since not a lot of customer pass through this area since its the end wing.

The Meeting Place

Leaving alone is not very good for me since that means I have to do all the cooking by myself, not that I dont know how to take care of my self, but admit it, cooking and eating when you are alone is really boring and lonely and that's the reason why I prefer taking my breakfast and lunch outside.

And also, this time, after travelling for more than 6 hours, I prefer not to cook anymore since I might fall asleep, which is not very safe for me and my house as well.

So after taking a short nap after I arrived home, I woke up very hungry, so I decided to take my very late lunch at one of the nearest place at my house which is The Meeting Place. I have been going back and forth at this restaurant not because of their food but becuase they also have a shop inside that offers varierty of fahsion items.

The place has a rustic kind of design which is great for those "tambay" moments that most of us like to enjoy. The place is relaxing and since I went there at 2 pm , there were not a lot of customers at that time so I was able to relax and enjoy the moment of being alone.

I ordered there recommended and best seller Buttered Chicken which is Php which comes with rice and two piceces chicken. It also comes with a free Iced Tea.

Even with the free iced tea that came with the food, i still liked to order Caramel Frappe but they are not available anymore. So I decided to just have mango Shake instead which comes in a very cute Light Bulb Glass bottle

The Chicken Butter was really good though I wasnt able to eat the other piece since I am alreayd full, I was planning to order another rice but decided to just have the other piece to go.

Overall, I enjoyed my quick stay at The Meeting Place and was planning to try out their other meals soon since my dad and brother doesnt have any plans yet to go at home.

I- Diner

I have always planned to eat in this restaurant since I saw their post on facebook about their Unlimited Wings, i have already tried unlimited wings before in other restaurants, blog here, but i wanted to see which one is better,

Here's a funny story on how I end up eating here, From my office, it will take about an hour or so to get home, but since I am on a graveyard shift, and this day has been very exhusting to me, I ended up sleeping at the bus. But then , since I am so tired, I ended up passing through my bus stop and ended up alighting at SM Bacoor, where I Diner is located.

Well, since it's alrady past lunch and I never liked going inside SM, I decided to have my lunch here, though I was dying to have there Unlimited Chicken, I told myself to try it next time when I am with my buddies. So I decided to try there Bacon Burger and their Vanilla Caramel Latte.
