A Sunday Like No Other


Sunday, as for many, is a family day. And of course, my family is not an exemption to that. We spent the whole day together and ended up at Grab a Crab to have our sumptuous dinner. After a day of malling, we were all hungry as a lion and we thought that Grab a Crab can pretty much satisfy our gut wrenching appetite. haha Now, you figured why I have this strangely endless liking for food. I'd like to think that it runs in the family. *with a grin*


Oh boy, it is difficult to choose from a variety of mouth-watering dishes. Not to mention their humongous menu cards which may overwhelm customers all the more. 


While waiting for our food to be served, I took snapshots of the cozy place. By the way, I guess you've noticed glass panels everywhere which happens to be my favorite detail of the interior design. The quotes from famous personalities added a modern yet classic touch to the whole venue. Not only that, reading fragments of their thoughts became my worthwhile pastime.


These intricately designed golden jars blended well with the colorful slender vases. This is yet another proof that the classic meets the modern theme.  


At last, the wait is over! haha Foodies all over! 

 Baked Clams  
Sizzling Tenderloin Steak
 Bicol Express
Grab a Crab's Signature Dish:  Shanghai Schezuan Crab 

Ever since I 've tasted this, I've never wanted my crabs to be cooked any other way! Think of sweet, spicy and a zing of gingerly taste that pops out of nowhere the moment you shove it in your mouth. YUM!

Spicy Crispy Shrimps

Had a bit of everything and as usual, I was the LAST one who finished eating. For some reason, I always do! Maybe it is because I'm the one who customarily zeroes in on everything! It is my way of cleaning up the plates you know. haha *another lame excuse*


We went out of the resto with satisfied tummies and hands holding them tight as if  they were about to fall loosely on the ground anytime! hahaha Oops, BURP! 



We strolled around the mall for quite some time and found ourselves marching our way into ANOTHER food haven! This time, for coffee and sweets at The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf






Honey sticks



Good thing we arrived earlier. Had our seats before people swarmed in. 





 Motion Amidst Stillness


 Blended Milk Tea

Passion Fruit Tea

       Triple Decker Cheesecake

Chocolate Fudge Cake

This cake is TO DIE FOR!!! If only I could devour this everyday, I certainly would! The bittersweet taste lingered until I spooned the last chunk. So far, it is the BEST commercially made cake I've ever tasted! Nothing beats my mom's homemade chocolate cake of course. hehe *without bias* But I have to say it is a MUST-TRY!

Another landmark has been ticked off my checklist!
Off to more food adventures...........one day at a time! *wink
