A Day w/ Kat

dessert pies at Pi

Kat approached me to my station one day asking me if I care to join her to try out Parrillada Grill in Maginhawa Street. Her invitation seem felicitous since I've been meaning to try Parrillada for quite sometime now. Heck! Just to be back in Maginhawa and get the chance to explore again its treasure trove of food is enough to give me an exhilaration akin to those tripsters and hippies who have been heavily shot with cocaine. Not that I know how it was like to be high on coke but I would guess you already get the picture, right? Hehehe! ;)

Coffee Shops & It's Load Of Goodies

What I normally do inside a coffee shop: eat, sip and read a good book

Food establishments, especially coffee shops, are the ones that I usually gravitate no matter what mood I'm in. Whether I'm in a celebratory mood for earning a work related incentive, or to ease myself back to normalcy from the frenetic schedule of the past week at the office, or maybe to set the mood with the suspense-thriller fiction I'm currently engrossed reading, or to bawl my frustrations about life and love with my closest friends. But these days, I head to these food places to nurse a weary heart. A lot of things occupy my mind lately and these food places helped me to take it slow, gather my resolve and refuel myself to pick up steam for the next journey.

A Sudden Whim Fulfilled

Learning new stuff could be quite of a challenge. This prove to be the case after I got transferred to a new line of business in the company I'm currently working with. Good thing I'm getting ample support from friends and mentors that helps me to get by. But after one tedious workweek, I got this yearning to feed myself of some homey, comforting meal which also offers a very relaxing ambiance. Never mind if I have to brace the bumper-to-bumper traffic from Eastwood to Makati. If it would immensely satisfy my hankering, then I deem the long travel inconsequential.
