Bluekidd or Superman is coming to the Philippines for a visit. He will be arriving on the 20th of April. We plan a get-together party for him in Shrangrila Mall, 4-21-07, a Saturday at 7pm. We do not have any exact resto yet. But it will definitely be in Shrangril-la Mall as a change of surrounding from the usual location (Makati). He has not been to shrangrila mall

If you are interested to join this party, please post your nick and a suggestion which resto you want and we will check it out. Will do head count by April 17th.

Thank You.

supes, still have my cell number? i'll try to come, would have preferred friday though :P i suggest sumo-sam-

10 reasons to eat at sumo-sam
1.) it's japanese
2.) it's japanese fusion
3.) it has salmon sashimi - which is salmon - and japanese
4.) sonny likes japanese
5.) those who don't like japanese can order their fusion dishes (seriously good)
6.) it's very good, prices reasonable (around 200per person).
7.) there is no 7th reason
8.) authentic kobe beef!!! OMG!! :drool:
9.) crispy tuna sushi
10.) pretty waitresses!!!1!!11111111!!!

Glenchuy...bro...wish I could do it on Friday but can't. However, this get together doesn't have to be the only get together...there can be more, we should hang out. I would like to try this resturant out...you gave a lot of good reasons to go there, of course the 10th reason was very important, hehe. Of course the food is also another good reason.

ya, that and the waiters have green, yellow, and red hairdos! i haven't eaten there in about a month, but i eat at their power plant branch once in about seven working days. the waitresses are really cute. sometimes (sometimes) they shuffle the waitresses especially when they're expecting a lot of people (like during mallwide sales).

Glenchuy,

have you been to Suosaku? thats in Salcedo Village. I read in one blog that its worth it to go there.

been in lots of japanese restos, but what i'm missing is AUTHENTIC japanese food. not the commercial soy sauce + wasabe crap being served in the japanese restos here. no offense to california maki, they're ok, but they're just not authentic enough.

haven't even heard of the place, any landmarks? salcedo village is kinda large, and randomly walking around trying to look for it isn't really my kind of thing :D

http://www.dessertcomesfirst.com/?p=526 - This is a Greek Restaurant in Shrangrila Mall. I tried to book us a table for 10-15 pax for this Saturday but they are already fully booked. I am in the waiting list # 4, that is, if you really want to eat here. Their last reservation is 7pm.

http://wysgal.blogspot.com/2006/10/sumo-sam-shangri-la-mall-mandaluyong.html- This is Sumo-sam Restaurant. Last night, I was there and was told, they do not accept reservations on Saturdays and Sundays. Medyo maingay dito. We might not be able to chat and learn from one another.

I booked us in Trattoria Gourmet at Shrangri-la Plaza Mall. 15 people. The reservation is under Superman's real name. Mas Cozy dito kesa sa iba.

suma sam's music is always loud. however, what i do, whenever i eat there is i ask them to turn the **** music off. yes, you do have rights to do that since you're eating there. if the loudness is coming from the chatter of the people eating there, then i have no arguments. lots of people eating = lots of chatter.

as for the review, i cannot help but completely disagree with the review. he goes on to claim that the food is just "edible" and compare it to "tokyo tokyo" which is a joke. tokyo tokyo is not even a japanese fastfood/restaurant. tokyo tokyo is utter crap. also, the price range of sumo sam is 300 to 400 per person? and what did the guy eat? two bowls of ramen? while the food has it's faults - stir fried ramen uses too much oil- (canola though- ) which i've already complained to at least twice.

of course, i had to check out his other comments to see if the writer knew what he was really talking about.

http://wysgal.blogspot.com/2007/03/good-earth-roasts-in-rockwell-makati.html (http://www.dessertcomesfirst.com/?p=526)

good earth is not new. the owner was a classmate of mine and they've been in the old block for quite sometime. of the 6 restaurants, only cantinetta (starbucks, good earth, gram's pancake house, ucc cafe) is new. i managed the construction of block 10 - which the management is trying to launch as "the block".

he called good earth's food "good". classmate or no classmate, but their food is just slightly above ordinary. 50 bucks for 4 pcs of siomai does not make it good. 4pcs of good tasting siomai makes it good. the platter is above average- their fish fillet however, is good. the ramen and hofan is bad, dry, and tough, and their roast duck tastes like roast duck. which isn't really bad- but doesn't make it good.

at least he didn't have the balls to screw up antionio's
[url]http://wysgal.blogspot.com/2007/02/dinner-at-antonios-tagaytay.html

i can eat there without calling for a reservation (and sometimes for free!). personal perk- i'm surprised he didn't go into further detail regarding it's excellent outdoor garden - which is about 30% of what you pay for. "You get great outdoorsy garden dining ambiance." doesn't really do justice to antonio's.

anyway, trattoria is fine. the food is good too. just had to rant at the reviews- at least six of them were just blatantly wrong. :D :D :D

wow! i knew Cyma was popular... but they opened sometime mid last year... didn't think they'd still be booked full now. too bad... i love greek/medi food. but hey! a place serving italian food that is more than just your usual pasta and pizza is next on my list.

It turned out there were only 6 of us. 5 of us knew superman way back in 2003. The new guy is Glen but I met him from previous get-together. The nick who requested and shouted with joy in the forum did not even show up.

Wildflower, sorry if I did not text you back. I was so busy dat day. I at first texted glenchuy to go in place of me, because our graduation was moved to that day and i have to travel from one city to another. I was thinking you might check the forum for the venue.

Mbaboy, he did say he was going to be late but the restaurant was almost closing. I informed him through text and learned he was just leaving his home, so he decided not to go. well, at least he informed us.

But in totality, it was a blessing because we were able to talk to one another about a lot of things. Seen the new product that are not yet out in the market but is already on sale in the USA.

we really don't care as long as it meets some criteria.

1.) the food must at least be edible.
2.) the airconditioning must work. preferably 22 degrees celsius
3.) standing room only is NOT an option for an EB.
4.) kayenne bakes more cakes.

hey glen! tried to reply to your pm, said your box is full! you forgot your spring cleaning? :p btw, the last eb was a week early. i had a new cake out this week on trial. cherry-orange loaf. next one might be blueberry - lemon poppyseed cake.

did someone mention sumo-sam the last time? i just heard from a friend and her hubby. both of them down with bad diarrhea immediately the next day after having dinner at the shang mall branch. too bad, the place looked nice.

hey glen! tried to reply to your pm, said your box is full! you forgot your spring cleaning? :p btw, the last eb was a week early. i had a new cake out this week on trial. cherry-orange loaf. next one might be blueberry - lemon poppyseed cake.

it is SO not full. i checked. thrice. must be bug. anyway, deleted everything. cherry and orange sounds uh... ungroovy. never liked cherries. :P blueberries though- blueberries are awesomeness.

did someone mention sumo-sam the last time? i just heard from a friend and her hubby. both of them down with bad diarrhea immediately the next day after having dinner at the shang mall branch. too bad, the place looked nice.


:P. i dunno. i kind of liked their food.

next eb raw. you still there sonny? been helluva **** busy. trying to pick up work in cebu so i can transfer there for a year or two.

how about an out of town eb? anybody want to try sagada/baguio/bontoc/banawe? it'll take around 4 days straight to have fun. 3 days if without baguio. around 5K per person excluding baguio- which is expensive at around an additional 2K more (plus cost of pasalubong). just been there around a month and a half ago. i go there once every year and i miss it already!

sagada is spelunking, hanging gardens viewing, eating!
banawe is mountain trekking, mountain climbing, rainbow viewing (two rainbows touching each other), terraces viewing!
bontoc is viewing
baguio is viewing, shopping, eating!

if you want pics, i'll be glad to show you pics from our recent trip!! (check out my friendster account. it's posted)

though i enjoy the thought of banaue rice terraces and sagada... may i remind you that it's the rainy season? :p i don't have a death wish... besides that this is the worst season for me to be out trekking for a few days.

i always, always, always, go on august. it's even rainer by then. this year, we went on june 8,9,10,11,12 so we could avoid the rain since i'm bringing some newbs.

i reminded them that i'm jinxed and that it rains whenever i go up to batad (the town where you can literally walk on the terraces) it's an hour and a half trek. it's been like that for the past five years or so, i bring my special someone, i go alone, i go with officemates, i go with a big group (20+ peeps), it never fails to rain when i'm going to the town (only going TO. going BACK- it never rains)

and true enough, even if the weather was fine and dandy, it rained when we were going to the town. HARD. really hard. i'm used to it - been like that every single time every single year. you get wet and cold, but my friends aren't. i'm lucky that we chanced upon people going back and they sold us their plastic raincoats. hypothermia is a bad thing.

:D
