Best Day Ever...

A new day has dawned. And with it, countless new positive possibilities have been born.
Certainly there are difficulties and obstacles in your life and in your world.
Yet they are always outnumbered by your blessings.
Focus today on those blessings.
Give your attention and your awareness to what's right with life.
Those who wish to control you and to take advantage of you will seek to fill your thoughts with fear and discouragement.
Yet there is really no reason for you to be fearful or discouraged.
For life is not what someone tells you it will be.
Life is precisely what you make it.
By focusing on the good things, on the positive possibilities, on your blessings and opportunities, you can make life truly magnificent.
A new day has dawned, and you can choose to make it the best day ever.

-- Ralph Marston

Recipes by Café Metro

I can't believe I haven't blogged about Recipes yet... From time to time, my friends and I craving over "recipes". The place is casual and cheerful; Like you are just dining in your own home but with gathering (haha). I can remember those times where we were there almost every week and enjoying same variety of food.

Gising gising. p135. - Our all time favorite... This dish is spicy and is truly addictive; with chopped beans cooked to perfaction in coconut milk. OMG! thinking of its description, makes me drool...


General Chicken.P175- Another favorite of ours, greatly marinated chicken sauteed with eggplant, taste a little sweet and is flavorful; Chicken is cripy yet tender juicy... I must be hungry now... I'm drooling over this dish too :(


Hmmm.. I'm not sure if its good now, but I can't seem to find the picture of their crispy tilapia.P175, anyway it also one of our favorite and is delicious as well...

Food servings are good for two =)

That's All!

I'm so pissed with nso

Last Thursday I called NSO helpline requesting for my birth certificate delivery...
I paid P330 last Friday thru Metro bank...
And today I got my NSO certified birth certificate...

Sure it was fast, I was giddily excited to open the package and see my birth certificate and compare the yellow sheet with the old one…. But what the hey #?!$%@ - I have no name in my birth certificate... sad

So I called them up again, and they mentioned that I need to file a supplemental in my birthplace municipality because it was the information sent to them

Goshhhhhhhh... Are those people really not eligible to check the conciseness of certificate? Most especially the NAME…. HALLER??? After all, the first thing they would ask you is when you called is your complete name and birth date… PUNKS!

Maybe its just my case...

Marciano

One rainy Saturday we (Tri and Jov) decided to have lunch in one of the newest resto in Greenbelt 3 named Marciano, according to Tri it is owned by actor Marvin Agustin; Marciano is a very stylish restaurant that serves Italian-American cuisine. Ambiance looks contemporary, maybe because of dimmed lights and chandeliers and of course the curtains, but is not that formal.


Freebies: Long and thinly sliced crunchy crackers served in a cocktail glass with three kinds of dips.

For appetizer, we ordered for puffed mozzarella stick with smoked pomodoro and prosciutto for P299 - Hmmm, it taste like pizza hut's chessy stuffed crust, as in!


Rockefeller Angus. P308. Angus beef, spinach, onion and mozzarella. The pizza was just ok, It is a little chewy and a little crispy, but I might order different flavor next time... Well, frankly , the reason why we ordered this because it sounds cool... lol
Madison Avenue Sausage and Pepper pasta. P298. Normally the pasta they serve for this is Spag or linguine, obviously we changed the pasta to something else since I don't eat spag and Tri is not a big fan either... anyhow the pasta servings is huge, needless to say that it can be shared by 3-4 pax but, but you have to eat other dish. :D
Overall, the place is a nice hangout place with sophisticated ambiance and satisfactory service... Food wise? uhmmm lets just talk about the ambiance :p, maybe I'll try their other dish(hmmmm steak!) next time...

That's All!
