Boys in Chinatown... almost!

Photos above from Raniel Hernandez.

A week ago, an itinerary to Chinatown was set. It was only me and Raniel who originally planned about it then he invited some blockmates. Only two of them were "G!" about it hence, a photowalk-ish adventure commenced.

Snack Size

Everything in this post feels and looks like snack size. In short, merienda. Internship has never been this fun with happy internmates and good food! :) Days ago I posted our very first lunch out at Banapple Ayala Triangle. This time, presenting one of our ordinary days at the pantry.

Of all the prominent milk tea places in metro, Moonleaf Tea Shop is be one of them. Their branches just keep on multiplying by the week. Just weeks ago, we were so thrilled of the news that Moonleaf was having a new branch in The Columns, Makati and to add more to the hype, it's near to our *coughs* office. However, we got disappointed that it only opened for a day! Eventually, we had the time to go out, finally, to buy a drink from there. It was actually my first time to ~*formally*~ enter a Moonleaf store since I tried it out before from a food bazaar. Anyway, we grabbed something from there and went straight to the pantry as some of us still had agendas to finish.

We also got to eat doughnuts from Cello's Doughnuts and Dips from their Taft branch c/o Tina. :) As usual, their products were the best! They have another branch over at Katipunan (and many others! Check out their site here.) so I suggest to go grab something from Cello's.

Hakka Milk Tea, Jasmine Milk Tea and Peppermint Milk Tea.

Busy? 

Think again! ;) 

Yabu Dinner Photodump

So here's a set of photos from my family's dinner night yesterday. As I was editing a certain photo, I couldn't help but feel emotional. My family is just my biggest weakness... but before this gets any deeper, we enjoyed a very nice dinner at Yabu after their office hours and me enrolling for my last first semester of college (hopefully!). I currently have 22 units which is like the number of units same as my first semester's when I was still a freshman. The twist though is that this time around, my SE group has to finish our thesis and there's my internship planned to finish until July. I guess the word "chill" must stay in the dictionary first!

I decided to experiment with the photos so pardon the color consistency! :)

What they call the ritual.

What I ordered: the fish (cream dory) set! 

Parentals

A piece of oyster from my father's Chicken and Seafood mix set.

Silken tofu from my mother's vegetarian set.

That's me! 

I still have yet to try their salmon set for lunch!

Banapple Ayala Triangle (and their new dish!)

As our internship draws nearer to the end, there were people who had to say goodbye at an earlier time because of certain reasons. To have it more memorable our batch decided to have a lunch out at Banapple Ayala Triangle.

The place was rather small however, I think it was made up with the scrumptious meals served by the restaurant. Also, the food were delivered  to our seats after 30 minutes or so and we were so hungry by then since we had to leave office by 11 for us to be seated. There was also this waitress who annoyed the hell of one of my co-interns. Personally, prices were reasonable when compared to the food serving and taste.

I had Banapple's House Salad and Crunchy Chicken Fillet and Bell Pepper Sandwich both split into two for me and Keena, a co-intern, for a healthier combination but when the dessert came in... all these down to the drain.

Crunchy Chicken Fillet and Bell Pepper Sandwich

Hickory Smoked Barbecued Country Ribs

Lasagna Roll-ups

Herbed Chicken Rolls with Basil Cream Sauce

Breaded Fillet of Cream Dory with Honey Thyme Mustard Sauce

One of their bestsellers, the banoffee pie!

Dark Chocolate Tiramisu Cake 

Strawberry Amaretto Cheesecake 

 
Blueberry Cheesecake

 
I can't remember its name... so call me maybe? Hahaha. Charot.


As for their new dish... out-of-this-world serving idea! Chicken a la Tupperware. 
I'm kidding. Haha.

Anyhoo, here are just SOME of the internship photos during that day! 

Best summer ever! :) ...minus the company work. Haha.
More photos soon.

TGIF!

What I imagined to be a normal, family Friday night for me turned out to be something different as I joined my female co-interns at a sleepover at the Discovery Suites in Ortigas! Ces invited us over since she lived the hotel life for a couple of days with Von and Kuya Dindin (FC?), and she got lonely having the suite for herself. Hahaha, I'm kidding. She didn't have any company for the last night she was going to stay there  and the rest is history. Thank you for having us over! :) Then again, I was actually hesitant to join at first thinking that my parents wouldn't let me join them... I was already out the whole week, going home during the wee hours in the evening.

Before arriving at the hotel, I went first to my mother's event thing and went home first to get stuff. As for the night, at least during the time I was there, consisted of them drinking while all of us watching the ever annoying Kit and Myrtle on PBB (oops!). By morning, we prepared ourselves for a buffet breakfast. As usual, I wanted to taste everything that was served hence, having five small plates for breakfast. I was so full that I didn't eat anything until dinner!

My second plate. Haha!

Back in our room! 

Magnum for dessert. Thanks, Sheena, Kim and Tina for these! :)

Thank you, Aubrey, Keena and Ces for capturing some of the photos in this post! :)
