TriNoma Blogger FOOD TOUR (Part 1/2)

Feeling: sleepy sleepy

It took me time to publish this post as it took me ages to edit all the pictures from the event as well as type this out. ~_~ I’m awfully busy and won’t be able to blog that much until my board exams are over! Wish me luck, guys! Anyway, I should start with my food tour post. :DDD This is going to be long because I like going into details. I know you hate long entries, but don’t close the window as there will be tons of food pictures that will (probably) make this post less boring. XD

I had some matters I attended to before I was able to go to the TriNoma Blogger Food Tour causing me to almost miss the event. -_- I was lucky I made it just on time before all the groups left. My brother was even luckier than I am since he was invited to join the food tour without having gone through the online registration. A number of people seemed to have skipped the event (including my friends Phoebe and Jhan) and I wish they didn’t. It was worth it! Who gets to eat in a lot of restaurants (not cheap ones at that) for FREE!? XD

It was my first time in such event. It was nice going on an event full of bloggers. They’re all strangers to me though except for Karen *lol* I’m just glad my brother was there. ^_^V I have no social skills. I can’t bring myself to talk to other people. But during the tour I met a number of people there. Sorry, but except Karen. (It was very great to finally meet and talk to you personally!), I forgot everyone else’s names. *lol* If you’re one of those people I met, please post a comment! I’d like to view your blogs.

After signing in the sheet of participators, I got my paper bag of goodies! :D There were chocolates in it, a notepad, a folder with the schedule, and a movie ticket! I got to watch Sweeney Todd for FREE! No, wait, I paid 50 cents! It was supposedly only 25 cents, but my brother gave his free ticket to me. So… Yeah… 50 cents only! XD

First restaurant we went to is CYMA. The restaurant wasn’t fully prepared with the food, but what they served was worth the wait. They served Chicken Souvlaki, Spinach and Artichoke Fondue, Roasted Leg of Lamb, and Patisado Greek Osso Bucco. The lamb didn’t taste like I expected, but it was very good. The Patisado Greek Osso Bucco tops them all though (I could even eat it w/o the meat and just the sauce). I wanted to eat a lot of it, but we all know that pastas are heavy to the stomach. :P

The next restaurant we went to is HOLY COW. Holy Cow indeed! The nachos are yummy. I wanted to eat lots of it too. *lol* The other food they served (see second picture below; the food is at the right, near bottom) is also good. I thought we skipped Jack’s Loft. I only found out we didn’t when I saw the pictures of the blueberry cheesecake.

HOLY COW! XD

Hmm :9 Blueberry cheesecake! ♥


The blueberry cheesecake was a bit dry. Still delicious though. I wanted to take out a few. ^_~

Next is BUBBA GUMP SHRIMP CO. I didn’t know they served shrimps. ^_^V Unfortunately, I don’t eat shrimps. I only got a taste of their Speckled Lemonade. It’s thirst-quenching, but the taste isn’t that special. I want to try the Southern Blue Lemonade! It looks delicious.

Near BUBBA GUMP SHRIMP CO., our next stop, is T.G.I.FRIDAYS. Suki nila ako. J/k! I have tasted better food from them than what they served us. The sauce though needs special mention. One of them was yummy. I just don’t know what that is since our stop there was pretty much quick.

ITALIANNI’S, next restaurant, is one of the those my family and I usually eat at ever since the time I hardly even remember. XD

The penne’s sauce tastes like this chicken we ordered from them about 2 Christmases ago.

Alright, the rest will be in the next and last part of this food tour post. Should the pictures not view, just view them here. Here is the complete list of restaurants. We didn’t get to visit all of them. I’m pretty sure I could eat from all of them except, of course, if they serve food I don’t eat/like. ^_^

There is a photo contest which I tried submitting 4 of my pictures to, but they Yehey! won’t accept my entries anymore. Boo~

I read this post before when my internet was really slow that it wouldn’t even load the images! I was wishing that the images would show up at that time X_X Now that I got to see them, I’m wishing I didn’t because i’m on a diet and now I’m just so hungry I’d probably munch on the monitor because of this X_X

I’d have to check these places out sometime. Except the Cabalen at Trinoma haha. I read BaklaAko’s post on the appalling treatment they got at that place.

By the way, best of Luck to your Board Exams! Ganbatte! Hwaiting! Aja! *lol*
