KFC's Chewy Cheeze

IMG_0681
This is one of the new items on KFC's menu these days. Chewy Cheeze. A small box (P50) has 7 cheeseballs inside...

It is a little on the salty side for me. And the batch we got didn't seem to be freshly made.... the breading was a bit tough to the bite and the cheese was quite rubbery and not melted chewy the way I was expecting it.

I would give it another try but maybe in some other branch. And I would make sure that I get a newly fried batch next time.

The Big Blue Exhibition

This is a replica of a baby Blue Whale which was exhibited at Market Market last January thru the efforts of National Geographic. I was lucky to be walking around the mall when I saw this amazing sight before me.


It was enormous and beautiful!


I enjoyed taking photos of it from different angles and from different floors of the mall.


LCD screens and posters provided facts and trivia about the blue whale.

(clicking on the image might show a much bigger photo)
Artworks made by children who were inspired by the exhibit were likewise on display.


I consider myself lucky to have seen this. I hope a lot of people were as lucky as I was. It was very informative and well organized. And yes, it was for free.

Tempura Japanese Grill

The whole family loves Japanese food. And Tempura Grill Restauarant is probably the more affordable option in town without having to compromise the food, ambiance and service.

Tempura offers set meals for large groups of diners to make ordering easier. It was much less complicated to pick out the set meal available that day. Even Arc agrees!

And soon enough, all the glorious food began parading right before our eyes one by one.

Tofu steak, which was my personal favorite and chicken teriyaki (?)

The set meal also included a great dessert to delightfully end the feast... ice cream with coffee jelly and choco chips!
