Back to Back FOODTRIP!


Years ago, I still believed in old adages like “blood is thicker than water” and “food is greater than friendship.” Upon realizing that I had lost so much flexibility in my logic, I have decided to test the second proposition. As the 29th of May ended, I got my result (wait until the end of this blog post).

FOOD versus FRIENSHIP

Possible results:
Food > Friendship
Food < Friendship
Food = Friendship
Food Friendship

May 29, 2012 : Fourth year enrollment day! woohoo! finally, official 4th year student represent!!! The feeling of being an official 4th year regular student is like a THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAA moment!!!

The angst, pride, glory, and perfect swag were all downloaded in my system as my registration form was printed =)) And now, I can strike a pose LIKE A BOSS =))

I was supposed to go home to Bulacan with my brother to celebrate my mom’s birthday, together with all the important people in my life. Unfortunately, my enrollment took awhile so I failed to go home :|
This was supposed to be a very special day...so many things to celebrate...and I miss my family already. But boo :|

After my enrollment, I went back to our unit to...REST. I was totally bangag :| I couldn’t sleep because I had so many things in my mind :| Basically, I spent the afternoon playing jetpack joyride, and I made “muni-muni.” Forever alone moment indeed

My friend, Ikee Gonzales, said that I should get up and don’t waste a supposed-to-be-special-day. She texted me that we should pig-out somewhere so I wouldn’t be confined all alone in my bat cave =)) As she arrived in our unit, she asked me to prepare my things...and so many “utos” followed.

patayin mo ang aircon.
kunin mo lahat ng gamit mong iuuwi sa Bulacan.
Yung susi.
Yung ilaw.
Check mo kung sarado na yung pinto.
Bilis, kakain tayo ng marami at sabay kitang uuwi sa Bulacan.

There! She took me to Il Terrazzo to pig-out! back to back foodtrip even though I looked like one zombified walking shit =))

We were supposed to eat dinner at Bannaple but we decided to go food-hopping instead!

First, we ate dinner at BonChon! My FAVORITE!!!
I ordered a meal good for two, just for myself.
Medium Combo A soy-garlic chicken and 2 extra rice =)) I forgot what Ikee ordered, but I paid for her meal :| =))

Steamy rice. refreshing lemon iced tea. soy garlic chicken served with love <3
PERFECT DINNER !!!
After BonChon, we went to the grocery store to buy Ikee’s stuffs for her internship and some NERDS for me =))
We walked around the place eyeing for potential restaurants for our next food trip!

Join the bandwagon of Soy garlic chicken lovers!
The best sweet and crispy chicken ever cooked!
Take your loved ones to BonChon already! :”>


We went to Bannaple after walking around Il Terrazo. Ikee ordered some cake for our dessert. I didn’t feel like eating again :| Overeating for dinner’s a traumatic experience for me =))

But oh well, I ate some Bannoffee pie with Ikee.
I would really like to do some foodporn or foodtography with the Bannoffee pie but Ikee ate the cake, before I had the chance to take a better photo of it :|

Well actually, Bannoffee pie’s a nice pick in Bannapple!
Banana slices fixed on top of a sweet crisp, embraced by luscious caramel syrup, a thick layer of creamy buttermilk sprinkled with chocolate...such a perfect cake of dessert! <3

It was almost midnight when I arrived in our house in Bulacan. Thanks to Ikee for making my supposed-to-be-special day, even more special!
Sometimes, pigging-out all the loneliness in you makes up a pretty healthy heart!
Food trippin’ is so therapeutic!!! =))
And for the result I was talking about earlier in this post:

Food Friendship

I’m not saying that “food is not greater than friendship” or “friendship is greater than food.”

Well I guess, food and friendship (both enjoyed at the same time)—one of life’s greatest features! ;)

Good friends enjoy good food together! >:D
I can’t wait for our next food trip experience! I hope that Janina Mercado and Michelle Santos could join us!
