nonna’s birthday dinner
Monday was my mom’s birthday. So we decided to have a small family dinner over at Senju, in Edsa Shangri-La. Celebrating birthdays are always fun, and you can’t really go wrong with good japanese food.
Here are a few photos from the evening.

esse and joy get married
Last Friday, my good buddy Esse decided to finally tie the knot with his fiancee Joy. It was another opportunity to get together with the boys and their wives and celebrate another joyous occasion.
Here are a few photos from the day’s proceedings.

party at 28Narra
A meal at Tito Del and Tita Che’s is always a challenge. A challenge not to eat too much. From the appetizers to the dessert, there is always food aplenty. Add some wine (okay, a lot) and you’re in for a bit of gluttonous debauchery. Intended or not. Of course, this is on a regular day. But last night was a bit different. Lisa and Jon are going back to Boston and are pregnant, there were a few birthdays to celebrate (from both the Aldaba-Lim and Lazaro side), so naturally, the food took a massive upgrade.
From the Jamon Serrano to the various cheeses to the 2 huge slabs of Roast Beef to the pastas to the endless Häagen-Dazs and free-flowing wine and champagne, I didn’t know where to begin and when to end. As a result, I only have a few photos to show for it. In fact, most of them were taken when there was no food around.
Of course, as the night wore down, our attention turned to the star of our gatherings, Pilar.
Pilar moments in Bay
Yesterday, we headed over to Bay for a day of relaxation. But when Pilar is around, you have no slow moments — tring to keep up with her and get her attention is a full time activity.
