Serye Desserts @ Santana Grove

Pardon me, I was so hungry I forgot all about taking photos of the food. Good thing though, by the time dessert rolled around, I was satiated (and therefore in a saner state of mind) and was able to remember to capture both sweet treats on my camera.

Luk Yuen, Alabang Town Center

My Dad was in the mood for some affordable Chinese food. I wanted to protest since I was craving for a nice, al dente pasta dish. We were a long way from my favorite pasta restaurant and everyone's tummy was already rumbling. Needless to say, I was outvoted by three starving stomachs.

CPK's Original BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad

It's a holiday, it's raining, and I'm craving for CPK's Original BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad (P345 Personal, P585 For Sharing). It's packed with chopped lettuce, black beans, sweet corn, crispy tortilla strips and Monterey Jack cheese, fresh tomatoes, green onions and topped with chopped BBQ chicken breast.

Conti's Nuvali

My cousins and I decided to take a joy ride to Nuvali and bring our grandfather with us. We just wanted to see what was there and take a break from all the work we've been doing. There were actually a couple of fun things to do there with the family. There's fish feeding, a boat ride and a bicycle path. You can rent out their bikes but be sure to wear rubber shoes. They strictly implement their 'no slippers allowed' rule.

Before anything else, we decided to have lunch at Conti's. It was my first time to try their Avocado Fruit Shake (P105) and it was thick and rich. You can really taste the avocado which I appreciated.
