Ready, set, pigeons!

One of the things I really love to do is to explore, not only on different places but also in food. I was given a chance to participate in Food Adventure in The Piazza at Venice, McKinley Hill. I was really excited and curious if I will be satisfied on the food that will be served. There are more than 10 participating well-known restaurants, so I think the registration fee is worth it. In addition to the Food Adventure, there was also pigeon feeding, which is a plus on my adventure that day, however, we already need to pay for the grains to be fed to the pigeons unlike my last visit. There were fewer pigeons this time compared on my last visit, thus we had a hard time feeding them.


The Piazza is a really good place to chill with your friends since it has a different ambiance compare to a mall. It has a wide variety of restaurants from fast foods to a bit fine dining. In addition, you can find a salon here. ;) Pigeon feeding is a plus point, and some 'trolly-like' (those animal cars that kids can ride) that you can rent.

Food pictures will be posted on my next blog!

Howdy!

We went to Manila Zoo to check for giraffes. However, this elephant was the only animal (i think) that I really liked there because (1) there was no giraffe, (2) the zebra wasn’t groomed well, and (3) there was no intense interaction with the tigers. We payed an entrance fee of 20 php (student) and we had fun though we were disappointed seeing the animals that looks like they were not taken care. There were even no facilitators (or hindi ko lang napansin kasi hindi distinct or wala silang uniform) that roam around or look over the animals. That was my expectations for a zoo. I was disappointed on how they facilitate the animals rather than enjoyed seeing them sleep or eat on their respective cages.
We headed to Robinson’s Ermita to watch The Vow. The movie was good. A nice way to end a movie is to keep the audience hanging on the story. We were really just in time for the movie so we didn’t had a chance to buy snacks to bring inside the movie house. So we had our dinner at Holy Cow since we crave for meat, and it’s one on my resto list. ;)

 We upgraded one of our order so we could have a soup and unlimited iced tea. :>
 Country’s Pride Parmesan Chicken. This was also good, however E said that the chicken was not that tender.
 Cowboy Ranch Style Porkchop. The mushroom gravy was really great! :D
