24th Birthday Celebration

                So to continue, last March 17, together with my family, I celebrated my 24^th birthday. And just like my mom’s birthday celebration, we only had a very simple dinner, this time, at Abe.

Located at 3rd floor, Trinoma mall

                Foods served at Abe were all like Spanish and Native Filipino inspired. They offer different kinds of viands of meat on their menu, including goat and lamb meat and others. And I think, they also have fried frog legs. ;) But since our family is not really used to eat these “rare” meat, we just tried foods that we are very familiar with.

                 We had Crispy pata which was cooked really well.

                Then we had Morcon that was really tasty but my mom disagrees. Heheh!

                For our sidedish, we ordered Laing with smoked tinapa, for me, must probably be one of the Best Laing I ever tried! Or, maybe the best? 

                We also had sinigang na baboy which was truly enjoyed by the kids, especially the “sabaw”.

                For us Filipinos, every good food or viand must come with perfectly cooked rice. And Abe has it – unlimited! Yeah, for 62php, you can consume rice as long as you can. Guess I also have to share that I finished two big plates full of rice. Takaw lang?? :p

                Aside from their palatable foods, they also have a very lovely ambiance. I like how truly Pinoy their concept is, as evidenced by how their chairs and tables were made. And also, they have this really cute bar. :)

 

                 I may have other ways or options on how I will celebrate my birthday, I just chose to have a less extravagant dinner. Well, I guess, nothing beats a celebration with your family … :))

My Mom's Birthday

                Since I’ve been quite busy and preoccupied from work, I find that I haven’t updated this blog as much as I should. I believe there’s a lot I just got to share and to start it off, let me narrate what we did during my mom’s birthday .. 

                Last March 4, we celebrated my mother’s, uhm, nth birthday. ;P Of course, we only had a very simple dinner at Banana Leaf where almost everything tasted so good.

                One of their bestsellers is their Chicken Curry; they had it in sizzling or baked. I had mine baked and although it has lots of potato, which I’m not really fond of, I still find the whole thing delicious.

                Also one of their bestsellers is their version of the spicy noodles, Phad Thai. I love how its spicy taste only enhanced my appetite!

                They have a lot of delectable foods to offer on their menu that were all Asian inspired including, Creamy tilapia, other types of noodles, fried chicken and different sizzling variants.

That's the Creamy tilapia on the center

                By the way, they prefer using banana leaf instead of plates. And in addition, I also love their Milk tea. :)

                After having our dinner, I decided to treat my mom for a massage. And syempre, join forces ang buong pamilya! :)

                A sumptuous dinner and relaxation at the spa, oh, what a good life! Surely, without even asking, everybody enjoyed my mom’s birthday celebration – because I did! :)
