Gourmandizing Heart


I can't believe my entry was March 5 that was like weeks ago. How time suddenly flies! I'm not  that busy as what the title of this post implies. I just have many things to do that even posting something that will eventually requires me to think of everything is so tiring. 

So what's keeping me busy?

Well, every allowance giving day I always see to it that I satisfy my cravings and try a new restaurant if I can. I always say that I work hard because I want to eat all the food that I want to eat no matter how pricey it is. Almost everyone knows that I have a glutton stomach. My relatives reacts differently whenever I say that. It is just the truth. If I can earn more in the future, travel as much as I can is one of my bucket list. I have a paper full of destinations that I really want to visit. 

I have a whole lot of pictures of food in my phone. I once browsed the gallery of my phone and estimated that almost 95% of the pictures I took contains food. Isn't it amazing? *twinkling eyes*




McDo's Chicken Fillet with Rice

I was greatly craving for this one Sunday afternoon but I do not want to go out of the house. It is such a hassle that I have to endure an almost a hour ride in the jeepney so that I can eat fast foods. So what I did, I asked my aunt to buy for me since they are going to the mall. Much to my happiness, my aunt bought two orders all for me since I gave the money worth for two orders. 


Happy Lemon's Cocoa with Rock Salt and Cheese

I always calls this drink my dose of sweetness. This drink is so sweet that it almost always makes the bad vibes go away. This is my secret stress reliever but I already said it so it is not secret anymore, right? Next time, I will try to order one that has an extra dose of rock salt and cheese. I wonder what it will taster like. *excited*

I already said in the previous paragraph that I really try my best to eat at a new restaurant. It is my wish to take my family there if ever I can find one. In the sad note, not many people know that I absolutely love Kpop. And it is my wish to try to eat at a Korean restaurant. The only problem is that I'm always alone. 

But you have to be brave once in a while. So I tried Manna's Restaurant  in SM Lanang. I don't really want to elaborate much since I have already planned a separate blog post for that. But I will show some photos and explain since I will again there to have my complete my post about the restaurant. 

The restaurant is located at the Sky Garden of SM Lanang. There many restaurants there based on what you want to try. Upon entering, you will be given a menu by the hostess or the owner which is a Korean. 



There are lots of trivia inside the menu like why is Korean food good for the health and other other such things. 


Afterwards, they serves a wide array of side dishes: lettuce kimchi, eggplant kimchi, another kind of kimchi (I don't what vegetable was that) quail eggs, roasted nuts which by the way is sweet for my taste and likes so much and a vegetable salad. And they serve it for unlimited. You just have to ask the servers for more. 

What I ordered:


Jjampong

The serving is for two people. There are several shrimps inside in which I'm allergic of. Good thing, I've discovered that eating shrimps plus tasting the soup afterwards relives the itchiness of my tongue. Maybe the spicy taste of the soup counter attacks my allergy. 



Bulgogi Kimbap

And this tastes heaven. With that special soy sauce, everything tastes perfect for me! Maybe because it is bulgogi that I can't really resist it. I will definitely try to eat some of this next time.  

I will try at new restaurant next week. Hoping I have enough money by then and I still have some money left for savings afterwards.

Altering Definition of Cuteness


There are many advantages when you are working for a family member. This only applies in my case since I'm kinda a brat and I can do two things things at them same time. There are days that I'm not working or I have finished work early and I always end up watching Korean dramas and variety shows.

As of today, I'm only watching one drama which is Emergency Couple. I have no plans of watching this drama from the start but after watching Ji Hyo in Running Man and Jin Hyuk in The Heirs. I'm curious about the plot.

I will not really elaborate the plot since I reserve a different post for that once the drama will end. But then, the plot is prettily interesting in some point and to think that I don't really like medical drama since too much blood sucks to the core. 

Why altering?




These are some of the scenes from the drama which I find cute or should I say it gives me some feels. Normally one couldn't understand what I'm trying to say if he is not watching the said drama. 

In the past, I don't normally have any kind of feels for such scenes. Why would I? For one, they are kinda old and they are not you can consider as idols but then my perception changes after watching two or three episodes.

What's the new kind of cute for me? 


The kiss that Chang Min gives Jin Hee while she is fast asleep.


After the smile that Jin Hee makes after the kiss.

I actually used the print screen button for the second picture. I keep on searching the internet for a screen shot but I couldn't find any so I opted to just make one.





The backhug in the ending of the episode is such a cutie patootie. 

Maybe one couldn't understand why I really love the drama if I will provide reasons. The last time I was like this was with the drama The Heirs. Though on that part, I was more excited on the Bona and  Chanyoung more than the main couple or the first lead of the drama. 

This is just a excerpt of my official post about the drama. There are still nine episodes to go and many things will likely happen. 

I wonder if until the end my definition of cuteness will definitely alter because of this. I'm looking forward on finding out.
