Lola's Girl

When I stated before that my mother is my number one fan, I was mistaken. Somebody bagged the title from  the day I was born up until now. This person has been the first mother to me, my first mentor, my supporter, my adviser, my protector and my best friend.

This post is dedicated to my dearest Lola. I was given away after birth and my grandmother gladly accepted to take care of me for good. For some reason after a year, my mom took me back and they brought me to Manila leaving my grandmother alone at our province.

She couldn't bare losing me so she went to Manila from time to time until she lived with us and continued taking care of me. Fast forward to the present, it was still her by my side. She's the one collecting my pictures from different events and compiling them, the one who's eager to know the latest happenings in my love life, the one who takes care of me and the one who boasts my achievements and story tells about them.

Now I'm being so sensitive. I'm okay. I'm just glad to take my grandmother to another date. As what I've said in my post here.

My boyfriend and I took her out for snacks and a movie. Simple things may bring great joys to the ones we love. I do believe that the best things in life our free. In my Lola's case I know it's just my effort, time and love <3

Blurred pictures. We kept on moving because Lola is shy to face the camera :)

That's it. My thoughts shared since I've been MIA for a while now.

Gourmand, food enthusiasts and pig-outers there, I'm glad to share with you guys that Tokyo Tokyo is finally in Davao City. As they opened their first branch outside Luzon, I'm glad to be invited  in this event with my fellow Davao bloggers to share the newest dining experience Dabawenyos can have. It's not the first Japanese restaurant in the city but as it open its doors here in the VisMin region, we are very lucky to be the first to dine in the country's leading Japanese fast food chain.

It was a delightful day since we were able to indulge on the wide array of Tokyo Tokyo's best-loved dishes buffet style! :) Here's a preview of the dishes you need to try.

Honey Chicken Teriyaki

Beef Misono

Pork Tonkatsu

Prawn Tempura

California Maki

 

Hooray for buffet! Now, look at my plate :)

I missed Tokyo Tokyo. It's been years since I last tasted their dish and I'm just so glad to enjoy their dishes plus their super delicious red iced tea. It has been there trademark. Their meals actually come with this refreshment. Another great things I want to share is they now have milk teas. Everybody's loving milk teas and I really appreciate that fact that they are serving this product now especially a lot of people is into it.

What makes me think that you'd love this Japanese restaurant? Oh well, Dabawenyos really liked the idea of eat all you can rice. Since viands are of big servings then a lot of people would enjoy this:

So what really happened at the exclusive preview event of Tokyo Tokyo Davao aside from eating? :) We all enjoyed the Maki-making demo.

There were also a raffle and fortunately my name was picked and I got these goodies:
