110, 111/365 - Pancake House at Paseo de Magallanes

Yesterday I treated Maica to brunch at Pancake House in Paseo de Magallanes. Actually we had to fix some stuff at the bank before, but I was craving for some of Pancake House's food.

She had three pieces of Pan Fried Chicken and I had the Saisbury Steak. Their service was sort of slow, and the corn and carrots side dish I got was a bit rancid. No worries though as they replaced it with fresher corn and carrots.

We had the waffle foldover for dessert, and as you can see from the picture it was awesome.

Over all it was a good brunch. They could speed up service a bit, because we had to wait around 25 minutes to get our orders even if there was little to no one around. But the food was still enjoyable.

Would I go back again? Sure, why not.

Sometimes opportunity knocks. I just have to run fast enough to answer the door.

107/365 - Yabu Revisited

107/365 - Hire Miso by Yabu
Hire Miso by Yabu at SM Aura
Today we had dinner at Yabu in SM Aura. It's the second time I've eaten there and I must reiterate how worth it is to eat there. I tried their hire miso offering this time. I didn't even have to use their sauce for this since the miso sauce was amazing. Absolutely worth it to eat there. And the great thing is, there are still so many choices I want to try so I still want to go back again.

106/365 - Wrong Ramen

106/365 - F.U. Ramen
FU (eff you) Ramen @ Wrong Ramen, Burgos Circle BGC
Today's lunch was at Wrong Ramen in Bonifacio Global City. It was actually Tanya's suggestion, and was it a great suggestion. I met with Tanya, Ferds, and Zag there and I was pleasantly surprised by the food.

By the name alone, you can guess that Wrong Ramen isn't your traditional Japanese noodle restaurant. Take my order, the FU (pronounced eff you) Ramen. It contains strips of bacon, a slice of SPAM, a slice of cheese, and a fried egg. Not your traditional ramen ingredients. But it was surprisingly good. Just don't be a ramen purist or else I doubt you'd enjoy the place.

The dishes were mostly fusion modern concoctions. The price was relatively expensive. Would I eat there again? Maybe on a special occasion. Was it worth it? I guess so.

Out.

105/365 - Cleaning

105/365 - Cleaning
Those white lines? Cif Cream.
As I was cleaning the dishes this morning I smelled something bad near the sink. It was horrible, sort of like the smell of piss combined with sweat, combined with funk, combined with rotting whatever.

It took me a while to find the source of the smell, but I found it. And was I grossed out after. I immediately started removing stuff from the kitchen counter and sorting things out. I started cleaning the counter and whatever items needed cleaning. There were lots of funk, and the counter had not been cleaned in years.

The ironic part is that we had recently let our household help go due to some internal issues. The whole time she was here she never bothered to clean the entire counter. She only cleaned the parts that were visible. Those that were under or behind the dish rack, knife holders, or oven toaster she ignored. So I discovered all sorts of nasty stuff.

Good thing I cleaned it with help from my daughter's yaya. The smell is gone and the kitchen counter is cleaner than ever.

Out.
