Korean BBQ

I was craving for korean food and since T is a good husband, he gave in to my craving and brought me to a korean bbq restaurant for dinner. We had so much fun cooking and then eating. T told me I should look into natural supplements for weight loss. It's funny how we always talk about losing weight and yet we end up eating so much especially during the weekends. It's just a good think we both try to eat less during the week. We just love discovering new restaurants and that is why we always end up eating out during the weekends.

Shaved Ice

It's summer in my side of the earth and so far it has been really nice other than 2 weeks ago when it was really hot. I'm thankful that the weather has improved over the past few days but since it's still summer I know the summer heat is going to make a great comeback. Since it's summer ice cream has been a staple for me. But if I keep on eating ice cream not only will my sugar increase but my weight too. I might need everything they sell at quickweightloss.org. Thank God for a "healthier" alternative--shaved ice. It's fresh fruits, milk and shaved ice.

We had this 2 weeks ago. The picture above is of a small order that I shared with T. We of course didn't finish it as it's was huge! Now, I'm craving for shaved ice again.

Firestone Grill

It was my first time to go camping and that would deserve a separate post but one of the highlights of this trip was dinner at Firestone Grill. T has told me about this restaurant and I must say food other than being affordable was really good! For dinner we ordered Tri-tip sandwich and a rack of beef ribs. It was sooo good. Serving was huge and we packed what was left with our beef ribs and had it for breakfast the next day.

Dinner was really good and we didn't even realize we have been at the restaurant for almost 2 hours already talking about Ferrari parts, what to do for the next day, and cupcakes. If it was not for the long line of people ordering and waiting to be seated we would have stayed.

Friday Lunch

I couldn't think of what to eat for lunch and I was busy looking at outdoor décor for the backyard that I didn't really want to go out to buy lunch. I remembered we had leftover spanish sardines and I just made garlic rice. Perfect lunch I should say. It was really yummy and I had to stop myself from finishing the rice I cooked. I had to remind myself I could not eat too much rice. It was a perfect afternoon since I had a wonderful lunch and was able to pick out the outdoor decor.

Going Korean

Reading through articles about diets that work won't really work for me if we don't stop eating out. I should not really be dieting but atleast just watch out for what I eat.

One sunday evening, the husband and I had korean bbq for dinner. We were first thinking of ordering the set courses but then realized that it was going to be cheaper if we order for eat all you can. same food is to be served and we would get to save almost $10.

It was a yummy dinner ofcourse and I was reminded of all the korean telenovelas I've watched and the food trips I had with my friends back in manila wherein we had a chance to eat at an authentic korean restaurant at Malate.

We didn't even order for a refill of the meat platter. The korean waiter even asked us if we were sure that we didn't want a refill. It was indeed a yummy dinner and we went home really full.

Food.Food.Food

With all the eating we have been doing, I would really need to look for the best diet supplement to help me us lose weight. We had guests over the weekend and all we did was eat.eat.eat. I'm making excuses about having guests over because even without the guests we dine out on weekends. We look forward to trying new restaurants every week but sometimes end up going back to our favorites. Most of the time we try to split an order since we are trying to eat less but of course with how big servings here are and with us having to eat dessert we still end up eating a lot.

Sushi Iki

Early January when T invited his cousin for dinner at Sushi Iki. T in the past has told me that Sushi Iki is the best Sushi restaurant ever. The restaurant is a small one a but is a very busy one especially on weekdays. It was my cousin who first introduced T to Sushi Iki.
Eddie owns Sushi Iki and if you sit by the bar you don't only get to eat good food but get lots of stories from Eddie himself. We had Omakase for the night. Omakase is when the chef just serves you anything and everything until you say you are done. We had about more than 10 different kinds of sushi that night and I must say it is the best Sushi I have ever had. The produce used were all fresh. I got to take pictures of some of the food we had but my pictures don't do justice of how good the food was.

For that night I totally forgot that I was trying to lose weight! The sorbet was a good way to finish the meal. It was worth the one hour drive to LA and we will surely go back.

Ruby's

I swear I would need the best weight loss supplements available in the market with all the eating I have been doing.

A few days after Christmas T and I went malling and then had snacks at Ruby's. I love their milkshake (I got chocolate and banana) and garlic fries that came with our sliders. As most restaurants, they offer a huge serving so T and I just split an order. We not only save money but we are also not tempted into eating more than what we should.

Love this diner and would surely go back!

Shakeys!

I'm not a fan of Shakey's but for the sake of trying and comparing we decided to have dinner at Shakey's one Sunday night after church.

The verdict? It was the same. Nothing special. The only difference I think is the signage and that the chicken here is bigger. Teehee. It was still a great dinner. Every time spent with T is wonderful, of course. We also got to work on the directory submission I had to complete. Thanks to the available WIFI service. Oh, I did love the mojo's though. YUM! It was really good especially with the ice cold root beer.

keebler

This stuff is just addictingly good. I have been eating this since yesterday, ayayay! Warming it up in the microwave for a few minutes makes it even more delicious. Can't get enough of it. I should really stop buying all this and all the other junk food I buy. Maybe I should even stop going to S&R because every time we go there, we end up buying food that is making me gain weight.

i have a new point and shoot digital camera. my mom went to grace batch `82 reunion over the weekend at makati shangri-la. she won a digital camera sa raffle and she gave it to me. woohoo. i have not used my nikon cool pix for some time now because yung lagayan ng battery nabasag. i'm still planning to have it fixed but for now, i'm happy with my new camera. no more borrowing. i just have to buy a memory card for it.

i have been addicted to cheetos but i like the twisted puff one's. super yummy. i buy a bag a week. i make sure i don't finish a bag in one sitting but finish it in one week. cheetos and coke light--perfect combination. yum-o!

transformers,heat and boxing

finally got to watch transformers. i never really watched the movie as a kid but the movie was great. i love the funny scenes the most. too much action towards the end for me though. but over all it was a great movie. really entertaining.

we had dinner at heat to celebrate my parent's wedding anniversary and my mom's bday. food was really great....especially the dessert. pictures posted here.

i will be boxing this week! im excited.

great week ahead to all!
