8. Top Chef ( I like learning what goes well with something even if I don't cook)

8 Favorite Place to Dine-out:
1. Pedritos - is a local restaurant that first served Filipino food and now serves Spanish food as well. I have no pictures but I love their Satay Manok and they make great Palabok. Yum.Plus, all the waiters know us by name so they rush to serve us.
2. Jollibee - is not something we do often but my kids love the slides at Jollibee so they often go there.
3. Sukho Thai - whenever I get lost at SM Megamall, this is a favorite stop. Yummy thai food.
4. Tokyo Tokyo - Thank God there's one at CSI City Mall Lucao at last!
5. The Beach House - please take me back there, I miss it so much.
6. Rodics - oh, their silog dishes just make me happy.
7.Max's - Fresh Lumpia please. Yum!
8. Mommy's Thai Canteen - it's been closed for quite some time now, this is my favorite lunch/dinner place at U.P. D. I could just stay and order everything. From their bangus lumpia, tom yum soup, and mixed toppings! Oh, truly a great meal.
