Offline Affairs

Spend the Saturday with our friends since college. The husbands were friends for more than ten years now..and us wives have shared a lot of motherhood trials and fun (yup including mils moments). The last time we were together was last year. That was more than a year ago! Imagine we traveled North with a sedan, 2 families, 6 kids plus one yaya. It was so much fun. Now we can’t do that anymore, we both have a plus one again. Yup, funny how we have the same number of kids, same genders too. Our friends, they got 3 boys and 1 girl, same with us. It was fun to see the kids playing with each other and bonding even though they don’t see each other that often. And of course it was more fun to bond with them again.

Now, since yesterday was my off, Sunday is online day. I have been itching to read some research on phentermine without prescription and where one can buy it. Been hearing great things about this pill and of course, I want to know first before I try it or recommend to friends.

OK back to wall post and yming once again.

One Wednesday

It rained the whole afternoon, but that did not stopped us from going out that night. Every Wednesday night most sellers flock Pasig Market to buy their stocks. You can find shirts there for 25 Philippine Pesos. Not that I am a seller, just wanting to buy dusters for Sati. As we rode the jeepney, a very familiar feelings dawned to me. It was a very nostalgic moment.

LB days… my college days…
Maybe it was the dew or the after rain atmosphere.. and the thought of being outside at that hour. It was like Los Banos once again. Back then, we have no limitations. We can go out and walk around at 10 in the evening or even stay outside up until 5 in the morning.
Suddenly, I missed the campus. I missed walking around the campus (with a cigarette on hand)

. I missed the grove.. walking there, looking for something, walking there to pass up time, or walking there to save money. I missed everything about the place. Ilag’s.. tambayan.. biosci, physci.. su.. brods ,sisses, yosi breaks..

Then the jeepney stopped and brought me back…
It was nice to reminisce but we know there was no way we can go back. Things are different.. we have to move on.

Ladies Who Lunch @ HK Choi

Ladies who lunch is a phrase to describe slim, well-off, old-money, well-dressed women who meet for lunch socially, normally during the working week. Typically, the women involved are married and non-working. Normally the lunch is in a restaurant, perhaps in a department store during shopping. Sometimes there is the pretext of raising money for charity. -wiki

SLIM? well off? really? oh, all mommies would love that eh? but since most of us are not on the slim side, let’s just focus on social lunch. How nice can it be? imagine meeting your mom friend for a lunch every week or even every other Friday. Now that’s what a breather means. LOL

But really guys, I think all moms should this. Meeting other moms for a Friday lunch. And I am sure moms would enjoy this ‘time out’ just like what we did last Friday!

The Place
HK Choi. A chinese restaurant from the same owner of Choi’s Garden. Authentic Chinese Food with a very affordable tag price. The ambiance was relaxing. The furniture pieces are worth eying as you wait for your food. I like the chair’s intricate details. This is located at Megamall Atrium, 2nd floor.

The Food
Eating in a Chinese Restaurant, The Chinese Way. Need I say that whenever we went to a Chinese (or Chinese sounding or looking) restaurant our menu will always include yang chow? I am sure most of you would agree. Yang Chow and siomai. That’s a perfect Chinese meal right? oh don’t forget the pancit! And if the pocket is accommodating, an add ons of sweet and sour fish or pork. I am super guilty of that! haha

Our usual meal will include yang chow, siomai, hakaw, sweet and sour fillet and broccoli. That is how I am used to eating at Chinese (or Chinese sounding or looking) restaurant. I can’t let go of hakaw. I have seen how it is made and whenever I went to a resto, I just have to try it.

So last Friday, when I heard we will be eating in a Chinese Restaurant, I was excite. WoW! Hakaw overload! Yes, I am expecting siomai and Hakaw.. LOL

The appetizer were served. A plate of cold cuts, soy bean, Soy Chicken, pork bbq (sweet asado, super yum!yum!), century egg and jelly fish and pork knuckles cut:


The soup was hot and sour.. something that my taste bud does not like.. you know I am all for sweet and salty..

The rice.. yang chow? nah! it’s RICH MAN’S RICE… fried rice with dried scallop and egg white. How’s that for a yang chow patron? The taste.. heavenly.. I mean tasteful. Since I am used to yang chow, I was expecting this fried rice to be bland in taste, surprisingly, it is waaay better than Yang Chow. Now I don’t know why it is called as such but our theory is, because you need viands with this kind of rice unlike yang chow where it seems to be a complete rice. In rich man’s rice, you need to spend more for the viands. Sounds logical eh?

Other food includes: crab, squid in broccoli and shrimp in salted egg. Now that is something worth raving for. Shrimp in salted egg? I thought it was cheese! If not for my girdle.. opps! did I just say I wore a girdle? of course, how do you think I am to wear this dress without my bulgesss showing?
but come to think of, there is still some bulge showing..hahays..

so back to the food, yeah if not for those lacey girdles, I would have finished all the shrimp and the peking duck in lettuce.. yum yum yum

Here’s the crab that I refuse to eat without coke haha.. I have a low tolerance with crabs but boy, the coating or whatsoever on the crab is so good to refuse.

The Peking Duck served in two. The skin is carved and was wrapped. Not my type as the skins taste is overpowering. Second serving is with veggies, wrapped in lettuce and added with sauce. Now, this part, I regret so much that I did not took 3 servings. It was good and something I can eat over and over. As for the dessert, we were served with Almond Jelly:


The Experience
FUN! I was thankful that our food was ordered by someone else and not us. If it has been me, I wouldn’t had experience this kind of food. So the next time, we eat at a Chinese restaurant, I will take them at HK Choi and let them experience the real Chinese Food, yang chow aside.

And you think we went straight home? nah.. you know how it is with Fedhz and me. We stayed a bit to check out Payless.. it’s like Pay less.. a shoe store from US. Had fun at Toy Kingdom, then bought two Beyblade for the boys. She let me tried Milk Tea Bubble or so..
