The Holiday HEAT at Shangri-la

Long overdue post! Yearly Holiday dinner with the group. We wanted it a little formal this time so after a long talk on whether we will have it in Escolta, Spiral, Circles etc. we finally decided to go to the Heat. 

   Check was present! So happy!

Our food

Pasta

Dessert!

Nashty and Norbie

Benny, Ceets and Check

Jelly and her presents! I gave her the book lol

Happy with his new gaga!

Ready for 2011 with his new planner lol

Of course!

Shoes killed me from going  back to the buffet area and our seat lol

I love dinners. Dinner with great friends even more. This one was special because Norbie and Check came. It was also a few days before my Lasik PRK so i could not wear contacts but we had loads of fun. There's nothing better than eating great food, talking and just laughing with people you love. 

Lorenzo's way II

Happy Birthday again Ceets!

Lorenzo's way

Lorenzo's way at Greenbelt 5 to celebrate Ceetee's bday.
The group wanted authentic Filipino dish so we opted for Fely J's but it was jampacked so we went to its sister restaurant, Lorenzo's way which has a better ambiance and location anyway. Same delicious food too.

 Binukadkad na Pla-Pla with burong hipon dip (shrimp paste)

Dilis Rice

I'm not a fish person because i don't like the smell (don't judge lol) although i cannot live without shrimp and crabs, I choose the fish i eat and they are not a lot. But i must say, these are delicious and rich. I think the huge fried tilapia will be liked by everyone, fish lovers or not. 

 My baby! The knockout knuckle or Crispy Pata!

    Middle: Bangus (milk fish) belly in kang kong blachan and our beef bulalo soup

You have guessed right! The pork knockout knuckle was located in front of me and Nash! lol because we're both not fond of fish so feasted on it but he did most of it! :) The bangus belly was alright, nothing special and the same with the beef bulalo. 

This is death right here! but it was so good as always!

Poor baby

Nash and i got obsessed with these condom shaped like chandelier that i had to take a photo! 

Great weekend night. I will go back here again and try the other dishes with my family.
