My Mother's Garden

Valentines Escape

February 14, 2013

Pick your own spot in the house, either in the garden or in one of its spacious rooms.

Each table is laden with flowers including a candle for a truly romantic dinner experience.

The buffet table boasts itself with a mighty chandelier to lighten up the mood.

Filled with antique furniture, rooms give couples a slow and lasting evening feel.

Garden salad goes well with three choices of dressings, mango, pineapple, or coriander.

Create your own combination of pasta and sauce of freshly crushed tomatoes, basil pesto, olives, or chorizo.

The main entree, house's specialty Mustard Chicken, is served with either white or brown rice. Also available is the Sauteed Shrimps with tomatoes (not in the photo).

Time for sweets after meal as the dessert sampler plate was served. Try out the carrot cake, so moist and yummy!

Another simpler buffet table is found in the living room.

My Mother's Garden is located at 2650 Zamora St., Pasay City.

La Piadina

Pre-Birthday Dinner
January 10, 2013

There are just some good things that don't last, such is La Piadina. We ate here just before C's birthday and I tell you, the food is relatively cheaply-priced but the taste was amazing. Truly, value for money. But, this restaurant closed for a reason we do not know. Originally, La Piadina was located at the 2/F of Robinsons Manila.

The counter boasting its tiled elegance.

The menu (look through it, the food is inexpensive).

 I was able to pick this cutlery set up and apply to formal gatherings.

 Cheese and salad dressing.

This soup that goes with the meal is amazing!

Roasted chicken served with rice and side dish.

Pasta, pizza and salad, all in one plate.

C asked me to buy her an iPad in the Apple Store in our school because I can avail of the student discount there, and so I gave her the purchase and had dinner. I truly miss this place and would want to visit other branches of La Piadina. If there's a place where posh meats value for money, this may just be the place.
