I have monthly appointment at Greenbelt 5 and I always go there alone. There are times I’m inviting my sister to meet me for lunch but she’s either not willing to wake up early or just feels lazy to go to the mall before office work. I know there are a lot of good restaurants in Greenbelt but Chili’s is one of my favorites.
Something Spicy From Kenny Rogers
If there is another restaurant where I could eat as much as 1/2 chicken aside from Max’s, it’s Kenny Rogers. I’ve been a fan since 2005. That is when the restaurant has still a branch in the old SM North Edsa Annex. I love their Classic Roast Chicken. I order the same food every time I visit a branch. Too bad there’s no Kenny Rogers near my place. The closest probably is at SM City Pampanga or the one at Shell NLEX Balagtas.
A Different Chopsuey From Recipes
It’s alone me time again. I’m usually hesitant to go to this place because most of the customers dining here come in pairs or as a group. And I rarely eat with friends or family. A colleague once joined me when we were supposed to meet after lunch and he saw me eating alone while he’s on his way to our meeting place.
Fresh Salad From S & R
I was really happy when I found out that there is a near S & R warehouse in Bulacan. The one I’m talking about is strategically located near San Fernando NLEX exit in Pampanga and is only a 30 minute-drive from home. I’ve heard a lot of good reviews on their food service especially on their pizza. Sometimes, I think people are going to the warehouse not to shop, but to eat. The foods are quite affordable and tasty. I’m talking about the pizza though. I haven’t tried the others.
Keep Coming Back At Max’s
Whenever we want some decent Filipino food, we always go to Max’s, as there’s one at the town. The restaurant has been a personal favorite for years. Though my family sometimes complains about the price and getting the same food all over again, it’s far better to eat our favorite Filipino meals than settle with fast food meals. I also believe we have a lot to choose from at Max’s.
Free Appetizer from Friday’s
Personally, I love Friday’s. I love their food. So when I purchased a Bistro card last May, I was pretty sure I’m going to be visiting the restaurant more often. Even if it would require me to spend more, I was actually excited. So when we were in Marquee Mall one time, I asked my family if we could eat lunch in Friday’s. My Mom was not as thrilled as me, but she didn’t have a choice when everyone else agreed. The goal was to claim the free appetizer care of the Friday’s voucher that came with the Bistro card.
Hot And Sizzling Merienda With Mom
Whenever I’m out with Mom, we couldn’t get away from eating merienda before going home. Lucky for us, there’s always a branch of Max’s Restaurant nearby. This restaurant is a personal favorite and Mom just couldn’t say no to me most of the time. She usually prefers eating at the food court, where there are more choices and food are very much affordable.
Mom’s Father’s Day Treat At Red Kimono
It’s our tradition in the family to celebrate Father’s Day even if my Dad is not in the country with us. And during like other occasions, it’s usually either my brother or myself, who wills to pay for our lunch. That time, my sisters and I cracked a joke that my Mom could be in charge of our restaurant bill for a change. Luckily, Mom said yes. We all agreed to eat at Red Kimono while the restaurant could still accommodate us. We went in early, just in time before other families started to fill in the place.
Lunch Date With Sister At Greenbelt
My youngest sister and I had wanted to have lunch somewhere in Makati until we got to meet up in Greenbelt one time. Originally, we want to have it on Powerplant Mall since I often go there for client meetings but we always have conflict in our schedule. So when I had to do some business in Greenbelt, I sent her SMS the night before and arranged a date with her. She was running late the day we met up but we were still able to have a quick lunch at Chili’s.
Youngest’s First Birthday Treat
It was my sister’s 21st birthday and for the first time, she decided to treat us to lunch. Instead of having a separate celebration with some of her closest friends, she just invited them to come with us in Marquee Mall that day. In fairness to my sister, she was game in almost every food we are suggesting her to order at T.G.I. Friday’s.
