Merienda at Dayrit's

Just wanted to share the afternoon me and my family had today. After we went to San Juan to look for a dinner table, we decided to have merienda at Dayrit's Magallanes. The last time I remembered eating at Dayrit's was way back when I was in grade school! I am glad that they are not totally closed and Karen was able to taste their burger. My mom influenced her into eating my usual order of Burger Ghetti because of the burger.

Savory Beowulf in 3D

IMG_8134Karen and I finally had the chance to watch Beowulf in 3D yesterday! After we got Karen's TIN ID from BIR Las Piñas, we went straight to MOA to buy the tickets. We got there early and lucky for me, I bought the UP Commemorative plate or else I would have been caught by the traffic enforcers in Pasay because I forgot that my car was coding yesterday.Ü Since it was still early we still had time to walk around MOA and looked for a pet store. Karen needed to buy Myong and Dyoknok (Karen's 2 dogs) new collars and leashes. While we were on our way to the pet store, I saw a familiar sign a few feet away and as we got closer I knew where we would be having our dinner after the movie. At long last my craving for Savory Chicken will be satisfied!ÜÜÜ

B-U-S-O-G!Ü

Beowulf was awesome! Not to mention that the whole movie was in 3D so it was more than worth watching it on IMAX.Ü Then capping the day off at Savory was the cherry on top!Ü

Auto Salon 2007

Just got back from SM MOA to check out the 2007 Auto Salon being held in SMX Convention Center. This event is from Nov 15 - 18, 2007 and it showcases a lot of very well tuned and customed cars, trucks and motorbikes. I was not able to take a close look at all of the automobiles displayed and the models who add spunk to the cars because Karen's brothers were going to watch Beowulf. We were all supposed to watch the movie in IMAX and see it in 3D but Karen still has work tonight. We looked around the show for only about 5 minutes and it really made me want to come back tomorrow and probably on Sunday if I don't get satisfied with my photos. :) Will try to provide more photos tomorrow. Hopefully, I could also finish post processing my other photos from the other car shows I went. :) Maybe I can also find the people who would be willing to customize my car for a lower prize (maybe even free!Ü) and they can use it anytime they would like to join car shows such as this. (hint hint to automobile customizing shops hehe Ü)

Pizza Company

I've always wondered how good the pizza is at Pizza Company. Finally, we got to try their food last October at their branch in Festival Mall, Filinvest, Muntinlupa. I have to say that we were not disappointed. The pizza was really good! Their pizza dip was also delicious! It really blended and added more flavor to the pizza. Their serving is not as big as those pizza shops with pizza sizes as big as 18inches but I think it is enough for two people. Karen and I are not just your regular people so we still ordered carbonara.Ü The people were also very accomodating and they are eager to help out with ordering the pizza. Take a look at what we had.

New Toys!

I was supposed to post this as soon as I got my babies but I think I was still in heaven. :) I bought these lenses during the Canon Sale last September and I could not resist buying them since the drop on the prices were REALLY big! They were also my birthday/Christmas gifts to myself. So here they are and some sample shots.
