11 to 11

On a dare, we decided to celebrate Valentine's Day by celebrating Chetski's birthday (Dec.26) and mine (Feb. 7). Chetski promptly picked us up at 11 am, before meeting Huangcholi in front of her condo in Ortigas.


Chetksi treated us to lunch at her newly-discovered favorite resto in San Juan -- Cookbook Kitchen. After a dizzying search for the place, we finally found the resto she's been raving about. Turns out ilang beses pala naming nadaanan yung streetcorner! Hehehe. Huangcholi and I had to take some Bonamine to calm our queasy stomach -- seriously!


Masarap nga ang pagkain dito. We got parmesan-crusted fish, adobo pasta, CBK chicken and honeymustard porksteak. Good luck nga lang sa paghahanap sa resto. Hehehe.


We rushed to Makati after lunch to catch the matinee of Rep's latest musical. Siyempre romantic comedy kasi Valentine eh. The production wasn't that good. Sayang. But the two female leads sang really well. And a couple of songs were quite catchy.


China red. Huangcholi bought this red number while Chetski got stuff too at really good prices. Sale pa kasi in most shops!


We had dinner at Cravings -- my treat naman. Nagpa-reserve muna kami ng table, fearing that the tables will all be filled with couples once we finish windowshopping. Ganun na nga ang nangyari.


Chetski was the only one who ordered a Valentine special na may kasamang dessert.


Sinubukan naming magkape sa Edsa Plaza but apparently, EVERYONE'S there. Too crowded. Not a place to park our butts and mock the lovebirds passing by. Hehehe. We ended up at Dome sa Shangrila.


Kahit medyo pagod na, nag-order pa rin kami ng baklava and flourless chocolate cake bago umuwi. There's always room for dessert. Hehehe.

We got home at exactly 11pm -- 12 hours pala kaming namasyal. How's that for a Valentine's Day?
