cibo

we picked up the bracelet i had repaired at glorietta and went to have lunch at cibo. i must say that cibo has remained to be one of my favorite restaurants! it never fails to satisfy my italian cravings.. i haven't tried their pizza yet though, the branch we go to do not serve them.. we must go to the other branches.. we must... we must...

chinese new year

these are crabs cooked with vermicelli noodles. this was our chinese new year's celebration meal! we didn't have any big celebration this year. we just stayed home, watched some tv, had some crabs, had some noodles... then went to sleep.. we had a long day...

Chinese New Year....at the Meatshop

today is the first day of the year of the rat according to the lunar calendar. as a simple celebration, we asked celia to cook a box of white tikoy for all of us at the store. it was yummy.... (and was gone in a few minutes!!!)

lunch at a friend's house..

we had lunch at nini's yesterday! she's still in thailand but rob, migs and digoy were there. and i must say that yaya rose outdid herself! everything was just scrumptious! i have never enjoyed eating vegetables as much as i did yesterday! we stayed for a while, chatted a bit, took a little nap then we had to go back to the shop...

horror of horrors: nini's laptop got stolen in bangkok!!! but thankkfully it has been retrieved! that's that.. don't wanna elaborate anymore... until i get the whole story straight.. she'll be back by wednesday.. until then..

Too Much Zhuang.....

yes, we did order too much.... actually, it was jon who did the ordering for us 'coz when it comes to chinese dishes, i trust him to order only the most delicious.... and he's not failed, so far.... except when it comes to the amount of food to order!!!

i guess he kinda panics when faced with so many choices.... and you know how chinese restaurants menus are.... they're crammed full of delicious-looking and yummy-sounding names of dishes!

since this was our first time to order from this restaurant, it was indeed a pleasant surprise 'coz everything tasted good.... and the servings were great!!!

so, who's complaining??? hehehehehehe

P.S. the pictures shown actually lack two more..... an order of beef with noodles and 2 orders of asado siopao. i found out about the siopao only tonight when i opened our refrigerator!!!

zhuang

we had food delivered from zhuang, a chinese restaurant near our shop. it's a not-so-big restaurant beside the supermarket. and i was delightfully surprised to find out that the food was actually good! it's even better than superbowl, the restaurant where we used to order food from when we wanted chinese food... so lynn and i are more than satisfied.. and as usual, i ordered too much so i will have some of it for dinner.. :)

The Making of a Japanese Print.....

here are just some unposted photos that i downloaded from my mobile phone:

where is jon in all these? well, he was the one taking the pictures.... and this was also the same time that he had his "M-butterfly" tattoo and a tattoo of himself inked to his arm.
