Just Another Ordinary Day

Friday!!! At last! But Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday all means the same to me lately. Yes, the perks of being tambay sa bahay. Haha :) But at least today I did something productive. I went to school to get my transcript of records. Oh boy I miss school. I think I got lost for a second, not because I’m a dimwit but because they relocated the Registrar’s office. Ano ba yan, ‘di pa nga ako graduate ang dami na changes! hahaha! Since I’m all perky to go to school and I miss dressing up for school, I rummaged through my school clothes and wore this (points at the photos). Did I just say the word school three times in one sentence? HAHA! Someone’s really missing it badly. :P

Would you believe I got that peach tunic top for only Php 100.00? I just bought it recently and only got to wear it today. And that Parisian sandals for less than P200! I now proclaim myself a Bargain Queen. :)

Fail shots. I didn’t mean to cut my head in these shots. Note to self: buy a tripod or have someone take a photo of yourself! HAHA

One of my overused necklaces. Say cheese! :D

Close-up look of the bag. I know Phoebe must have turned deaf already from all the thank yous. Hihi. But again, thank you for the bag. First time to use it awhile ago. :)

Sneak peek of what’s inside the bag. :)

Along with the bag came these goodies: pen, nail polish, shades, belt and a note from Phoebe. :) See why I can’t thank her enough? She’s the sweetest!

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!! I’m expecting my friends to come over later this afternoon. I think this day will turn from ordinary to extraordinary after all. :)

First OTD and (more) food post

By now, you all should/might be thinking why I’m always blogging about food! HAHAHA! Sorry if I always make you guys hungry! So to spice things up a bit… here’s my first ever outfit of the day (OTD) post.

These pictures were taken last Sunday (‘cause I love the lighting in our room and was in the good mood for picture taking. Thanks sister, btw!). My family and I were to attend a soft opening of a restaurant called Torch that day. They offer American, Italian and Japanese cuisines. 

Here’s a little tour of what’s inside Torch. I liked their kitchen area as it was visible to us diners. Reminds me of the show MasterChef US for some reason. The restaurant is also very spacious and well-lit. 

For appetizer we ordered Truffle fries (Php 234) — crispy potato fries tossed in truffle oil and served with their very own Peppermill dressing. I really appreciated that the potatoes were cut in large sizes. And it didn’t taste bland so you can do away with the dressing. 

Next one to be served was this Philly cheese steak pizza (Php 349.95). The menu says it’s a classic Philly cheese steak sandwich filling on a fresh, oven baked thin crust topped with mozerella and cream cheese. Oh boy, I love thin crusts! So this one’s a winner for me :)

My brother ordered this Buffalo Asian Chicken (Php 324.95). They used 2 kinds of sauces to marinate the chickens, hence you’ll notice different colors. I tried one, and I find it crunchy and spicy (just the way I like it). Too bad the waiter didn’t serve my brother’s rice!

 
My dad’s order — Plain Burger (Php 284.95), which the menu described as 100% US angus beef patty served on toasted burger buns. My dad was happy with the serving size. 

The two pictures above are called Volcano Roll (Php 324.95). It’s made up of freshly baked sushi roll filled with tempura, tomago and Japanese cucumber, and topped with spice baked US scallops. This is definitely a must try because it’s quite unique and rich in flavor. 

Lastly, for dessert (but actually it’s listed in appetizer LOL) we ordered this Sweet Potato Fries (Php 199.95). I love the serving glass! But sadly, I wasn’t fond of fries with confectionery sugar. My siblings enjoyed it, though. 

WOW! Blogging about this made me hungry again. Thank you to my brother’s friend who invited us here. We also got 30% off since it’s just their soft opening. 

Torch is located at Home Studio Bldg., 63 Connecticut St., Greenhills, San Juan. Just beside Ford. And along the streets of Amici and Conti’s. Ample parking spaces are available.
