#Imay's

My mom and her high school barkada would often meet up in Imay's for dinner. As usual, I was the designated driver slash photographer so I had to tag along.

Imay's is known for their sumptuous Filipino food and it's always a full house there, every night. My mom and her friends always had this private joke whenever they're there to tell the waiter that a certain friend is having his/her birthday. It always happen every time, I was a victim of that private joke too.

It was always a blast tagging along with them. I think our table was the loudest. Errr.

Now for the food that we ordered... (I wasn't able to take pictures of everything, I was busy eating. Lol.)

#Cuayx

I had to "cheat" my diet so I could eat dinner here tonight with my mom. Haha. (Anyways, that's the reason for the lack of food related posts. I have officially placed myself under "diet mode" for a healthier summer body.)

So I've been wanting to eat at Cuayx. From the name of the restaurant itself, it gets you enough enthusiasm to go eat there.

#eating in

I was being random today and since it was my day off, I decided why not make a Black Sambo. Since recently a staff nurse of mine in the OR gave me her recipe. I bet I had to share some of these tomorrow in the OR. Let them taste my masterpiece. Err, no. HAHA.
