Goin' Japanese
It was my BA’s last Saturday here in our place when we thought of giving my friend Elsie a treat because she helped us with certain documents that BA needs to bring back home with him. We couldnt’ decide where to go after the place we’re supposed to have our dinner was closed for a special affair.
Elsie called her friends while we’re on mobile and they’ve recommended some place but unfortunately, BA and I have already eaten in those places they’ve mentioned. We wanted something new. Elsie and I decided to go to a newly-opened coffee shop instead and just have desserts and coffee. But when we got there, BA wanted a “true” dinner, so we left the coffee shop. Gladly, Elsie thought of this new place she saw recently while we were at the parking lot. So we went there right then.
I like the restaurant’s ambiance with its Japanese setting. And their food is yummy too. The only problem is, they serve a small serving for each dish. The dish we ordered which is supposed to be good for two to three persons looked like it’s only good for one. Nevertheless, the food is great. The prawn and squid is so tender and their customer service is excellent. I might visit the place sometime soon again.


At Mang Gorio's
It was on a Friday when my Big Angel and I went to have our late lunch at this restaurant. It was my first time to sample their food though I had visited the coffee shop adjacent to it. The two establishments are owned by the same young professionals.
I don’t know what to expect that day. I thought they have expensive servings but they haven’t. Everything was pretty affordable and yummy too. The place is called Mang Gorio’s and the coffee shop is McGregor’s. They said, Mang Gorio is the Filipino name for McGregor. What do you think? Well yes, that’s interesting.



At the Coffee Shop
This was at the back of the coffee shop that my BA and I went to after having our first movie date. We were freezing cold at the cinema so BA thought of going to a coffee shop afterward to warm ourselves with hot coffee. But mind you, mine wasn’t hot since I don’t like having hot coffee in the middle of the day. That’s my glass of cold cafe latte’ on the table.
I wasn’t supposed to stay at this part of the coffee shop because this is the smoking area but BA preferred to stay here since it’s cold inside, and did I just mention that we were freezing cold. Hee hee.
This was also a very special day for us because it’s the day that he proposed to me and on bended knee at that. Beat that! LOL. What a happy and surprising day that was. My BA definitely put me on cloud 9. (“,)
