CIBO Birthday Dinner

It was my sister's 40th birthday and we had dinner at CIBO in promenade, greenhills.

I used to eat there a lot years ago but in a different branch and still remember how good it tasted especially my favorite LINGUINE AL NERO.....

and the best pica pica SPINACI ZOLA....

We started our meal with Patatine Fritte, Spinaci Zola and Crema di Zucca...
The spinaci wasn't as good as it was..it was a little dry....
The patatas was crunchy and has a weird tangy dip which I end up loving as I eat it....
The soup was really good and my kid loved it...

Here come's the main course...we ordered 3 pasta dishes.....

the Linguine La Foresta is fine, but I think it lacks more sauce the way I wanted it...

Not sure if this is the Farfalle alla Genovese but this is the pasta I enjoyed the most because of the pesto sauce... Maybe I'm tired of eating tomato sauce and white sauce based pastas.....

They also served different kinds of pizzas......

We had the Pizza Margherita, Prosciutto di Parma and I forgot the name of the other one that has anchovies on it which I think is the best.

AND FOR DESSERT! I used my last voucher for Cheesecake etc. and gave my sister banana cream pie....

It looks delicious, but I never heard any compliment from anyone after they tasted it. Sorry, but I had tasted better ones...but it is worth since I got it for 50% off.

Before we got home....we dropped by at banapple because the husband of my sister got her the banoffee pie that she has been craving for...

Here is the website for CIBO for those who are in the mood for some Italian cuisine...

MyHealth Clinic Takes Care of My Health

Getting sick is a real pain in the *** but to wait for a long queue in discomfort and end up with a list of expensive medicines to buy would definitely make anyone feel more sick! I was glad I have a health card from work so that lessens my worry about the check up and laboratory expenses. I usually go to Medical City Clinic in Trinoma and Waltermart for the check-up but my experience there was not really that good especially in Waltermart, Munoz. The nurses there and attendants seem so laid back (which is a better term for being lazy) and busy chatting with each other. I waited for a long time (around 30 min.) just to have my Maxicare approved and after that I went to the nurse's station to give my papers but the girl was busy on her phone so the guy beside her placed my paper on her table and told me to wait for my name to be called. So I waited for my name to be called and it was almost an hour. I was really wondering why it would take that long just to have my blood extracted ...

Teresita's Halo-Halo and Palabok: Perfect Pinoy Merienda

My mom always brags to me how delicious the halo-halo is at Teresita's that's why I decided to give it a try after a hectic Saturday of hopping from Waltermart to Trinoma and back to Waltermart again. I was supertired, hot and thirsty so the perfect snack would be halo-halo. Teresita's of San Fernando is located at the ground floor of Waltermart in North Edsa. It is near the entrance and supermarket which makes it hard to miss. Parents can also relax there while kids play at the nearby mini-play area. We ordered 2 regular halo-halo which is worth P85/each and palabok worth P85 too. I was expecting to get the typical halo-halo with 8 to 10 ingredients, but was surprised to just get three main ingredients which are sweetened banana, macapuno and leche flan plus milk and ice of course. It was all new to me so I was not satisfied at first. I was waiting for the crunch of the pinipig but there was none. As I eat it, I started to enjoy the smoothness of the texture an...

Having a Sweet Life at Discovery Suites

Having a vacation can be stressful at times ...the hassle of packing things, traveling far, traffic and unpacking. That's why more people choose to spend their weekends at the hotel which is more convenient and stress-free. There are lots of online discount deals now giving up to 50% off on hotel room rates, which means that the market for that is increasing. If I got the moolah then I would definitely get a voucher because hotel life is really sweet! My sister invited me, my kid and mom at Discovery Suites because she got a free overnight stay there. Maybe this was a freebie from booking a 3-bedroom suite and 2-bedroom suite for my niece's debut last year. Discovery Suite has a great location being situated right in the heart of Ortigas Center. Just across Podium Mall and ADB. St. Francis Square, Robinsons Galleria and SM Megamall are just a few steps away from the hotel. So if you get bored, there are lots of things you can do nearby like shop, watch a movie, play billiards,...
