Tong Yang Plus

Tong Yang Plus March 14, 2021 0

A little over a month ago, we went to this place at SM North Edsa and had lunch. Birthday lunch to be exact. It was actually my first time here and even with the precautions they’re doing with the ongoing pandemic and all, I still enjoyed. I mean, we went to two different buffets and the experience was just not the same. I actually wonder what’s it like here before the pandemic.

They had this mini photo booth that I many pictures of. Myself and my sister.

They had this cute valentine cake going on. I actually didn’t bring any ID with me which I should have bought because they have a birthday promo and my meal should have actually been free but too bad.

Chicken

Hainanese

Stuff for grilling.

I had soo many shrimp! No regrets! I actually didn’t try much of the other stuff they have that day which is not the right way to attack a buffet if you ask me.

The shabu shabu thing they have going on also have pre-made set and all you have to do is to order a soup to put it in. I don’t recommend it. It doesn’t taste like anything to be honest.

Oooopsssieeesss

This may have been my 3rd or 4th plate of shrimp.

Family picture

That’s all guys! I would actually want to go back here in the future. Probably with the whole gang if possible. I guess they would enjoy the experience as well.

What I ate in Japan 2020

Volk’s Japan April 08, 2020 0

I had this at Volk’s at the first day we got to Japan. I think triple cheese burger is the name for this. It was so delicious by the way.

Fresh salad! I missed this because you can’t get a salad this fresh in the Philippines. Japan is just home for fresh vegetables.

Not good! I mean, it’s kinda good but it has bones in it which get stuck in between my teeth and my brackets so yeah not that good!

Disneysea’s smoked turkey! Always a win.

Yas! I enjoyed this. It’s not as hot as I thought it would be because it’s so perfectly hot and spicy. I finished. Ordered this from Hidagaya. Or Hidakaya?

Melon Soda! I’ve had melon soda enough for me not to miss it for a year. Melon soda is such a blessing.

This one! I missed this. I will never get tired of this. Yummy! Chicken Filled tenders with cheese! All of this and the one below is from Saizeriya.

This one!! Also soo yummy!

Cakes! I wish I was able to taste Strawberry Shortcake once again but yeah Japanese cakes are just delicious!

Curry rice and Chicken Namba. The best bento I’ve had in a while. This one was from 7/11.

Giant spicy chicken fillet in Asakusa. It was served hot!

The picture above are the plates we had at a Chinese buffet in Chinatown. It was awesome!

Delicious! Revenge for the boney fish tempura we had. This one is a proper ebi tendon.

Warm and delicious niku udon we had at a mini stall inside a supermarket in Sanwa. In Harataima.

The carnivore in me! This was in Hungry Tiger. This is just so delicious! We had the double steak something which has the famous burger steak and sirloin I think. Delicious. Delicious!

Mentaiko cheese takoyaki from Gindaco. This is just so delicious!

My Beloved Japan

Personal March 22, 2020 0

I admit. I thought I wouldn’t be back for a while but goodness gracious it was good to be back for a while. I was in Japan for 12 days and man, it was awesome! Couldn’t be any better. Actually it could! I wish my sisters were with us. I went with my mom to take care of errands and stuff and overall, I would say it was a very productive trip considering.

Our first day was the busiest I guess. We went straight to the city pension office and got to finish what we needed to (in a way). I won’t really tell you what we did there because 1, it’s boring, and 2, I don’t really know how to translate it properly myself so better not say anything, right? But it has something to do with my dad passing away and the pension has to be transfererred to my mom. Yup. It was a lucky day for us because having told that the next available schedule is in 3 weeks, we were able to finish the whole thing in like 3 hourd I guess. Thank you, Japanese Peeps for being so helpful and efficient. Anyways, after the long day, we ate at Volk’s! My first real Japanese food in a while. To be fair though, Volk’s isn’t even Japanese but oh well. It was delicious!

SAKURA

We went to the supermarket and found these gorgeous line up of trees. I mean, it was still the early part of our trip though so I knew I had to be back there to take pictures but I took a picture anyway just in case.

GO-TO Saize Order

MELON SODA

CHICKEN!

The next day, we met up with mom’s long long time friend, tita Analou and we ate at Saizeriya. It was the best!! I drank a lot of Melon Soda there if you ask me. Gah I missed Saizeriya.

NIKU UDON

Also in this post are the food we ate the next day. I’m ending this post here folks. I’ll see you in probably 4 more post. Adios!

45 Days of Butter Coffee

Japan May 02, 2019 0

I drank Butter Coffee everyday for a month. And a half. I actually learned this from my co-worker whose goal in life is not to go over the weight of 51kg and killing it. This petite co-worker of mine who eats like a construction worker and myself combined. Life is unfair. Anyways, she told me she saw it in the news so I was like, me likey! I want it too! Good thing is that there’s literally a Family Mart 3 mins. away from where I live so, okay. I religiously bought one everyday for 1 and a half months! Like, the Family Mart lady probably think I’m insane or something. But I proceeded with the experiment anyways.

To be fair, it taste so good! I mean, in the first few weeks of course. Until you despise it! Up to the point when you can already taste the butter! Goodness. It’s probably the worst taste ever! Like, can’t drink it straight like I used to. Gives me headache too. Is it just me though? So as you can see from the picture, there are two variants you can choose from. I like the original better. But from time to time when I'm really sick of it, I pick up the sweet one too.

I mean, are we seeing these butter bits?

It was fun! It’s kind of expensive. Twice the price of the coffee I’m used to drinking. Also, no effect on me. So I kind of know that high fat diet doesn’t work on me. So yeah. Tell me if you've tried this diet and if it worked for you! OR NOT.
