back to Heaven...

This is my second time to dine at H&E and this is our, Oliver and I, first dinner here together. You see if Oliver kept on saying how picky, I am these days, the more he is. Anyway, I must be followed di ba hon?? hehehe…

During that November dinner with my sister, I left the ordering part everything to her. And this time without her, I thought I could come up with a new set, so, I really tried but I ended up getting the same plates of pasta and deep-fried seafood bounties.

Our set,


Seafood Basket

This is the same appetizer Che and I had, perhaps this one would be a favorite from now on.

Shrimp Pasta in Saffron Cream Sauce

It was a lot creamier this time, and I love it especially the shrimps. I gave two thumbs up for this one and I hope the creamy sauce would be consistent.

Toblerone Mousse Cake
dark chocolate base, toblerone mousse, dark and white chocolate shavings, raspberry syrup and chocolate ganache


This time I saved some space for the sweet something and Oliver had this for me.

We shared the big slice of this mousse cake that concludes our dinner date.

Though prior going to Ayala Center I was telling Oliver that we should try 8065 Bagnet, the place was jam packed so we drive away. And made the right decision this time, I love, love the creamy pasta.

So, you think this offering from H&E is worth to try.


Monday to Thursday only

Friday to Sunday only

Midnight Special!

for more info you may follow the link http://www.philippineairlines.com/home/home.jsp






to-do-list and my sweet cravings

It's Friday once again and tomorrow is the start of another long weekend away from work…yehey! Though the announcement was kind of late to plan anything, at least I would have plenty of time lazing around.

I wanted to drive home to Cavite but for sure, Oliver would say no, so, never mind I will not insist anyway. I created a short to-do-list this weekend to guide my tickly foot…

Shop a little: Maybe I will give Greenhills Shopping Center a visit over the weekend or a possible trip to Pasig at the Gingersnaps Sale :)

Dine somewhere: I would love to try Ristras for their heavily filled Mexican Burrito or Frazzled Cook for their Seafood Paella

Give Bea a walk: Planning it on Sunday night at Boni High, I will not tell our little girl yet oh, I mean big. because she may got too excited. For now, let's keep it a secret :)

That would be for now unless something more interesting and feasible comes along over the weekend.

I will leave you with my sweet cravings too this time (photos from our last Starbucks visit)

Chocolate Old Fashioned Doughnut

A slice of Chocolate Cake


Have a sweet weekend everyone!

Grace Bldg. on Fire!

Last Monday during lunch break, I was one of the many who went running our way out of our office building to avoid suffocation. There was fire just besides our office building, which prompt everyone to vacate the workplace. Imagine, during the holy hour of our lunch break when everyone is taking lunch at the pantry and the rest was taking a short nap, some really panicked and some remained calm until the fire was put under control.

By the way, the commercial building that was on fire was Grace Building, which is a driveway away from Limketkai. Thank God, there was no casualty.


I went on shooting some of last Monday's fire, here is it...

our office building is after that Eastwest Bank signage

and the traffic it created during that hour


Our company announced an early work call off that day, so, I went home early to get some needed rest.
