Of London Friends, VIP Invitation & Momentary Independence

December 17, 2008

They’re Back From London, Baby!

 

 

 

Our dear old friend Cherry, who is currently working in London, is home not only for the holidays but to also take care and attend the burial of her mom (may she rest in peace). The moment she found the time for herself, she met with us together with her boyfriend Toine. We were so glad to see her again after all these years. She’s still the same bubbly person (despite the current circumstances) and she never runs out of exciting and funny stories to tell. We became friends with her while she was still doing law school. Now she’s already working for DTI based in London and she has travelled all over  — from Paris to Rome, Italy, Netherlands, Greece, US, etc. She is not only living THE LIFE but found THE LOVE OF HER LIFE as well! I’m so happy for  the both of them!!!

 

 

We had lunch at C2 Classic Cuisine over at Power Plant Mall. They offer Filipino dishes cooked to perfection. Everything we had for lunch (Pochero, Bangus Belly, Pata, Binagoongan Rice) was just very delighful and we were completely satiated. Even their desserts were perfect (leche flan & polvoron) except for the Bibingka Souffle which didn’t taste like anything at all.

 

 

 

Anyway, after catching up for three hours, we went around a bit and saw these life-like display of Polar bears and wolves. It was pretty real looking. I felt like a kid inside a museum. Hehehe. Before long, we headed to Royce Chocolates. We tried a couple of their products like chocolate wafers, chocolate covered potato chips, and NAMA chocolates (champagne and coffee).  Everything tasted so smooth and perfect!  Peter and I bought a box of Champagne NAMA Chocolates but we promise to purchase the others on our next visit.
