Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, TriNoma

Last Tuesday afternoon, I was browsing the local/Philippine website of OpenSnap to find a cafe in the vicinity of Quezon City particularly cafes in TriNoma until I found Vanilla Cupcake Bakery.

Vanilla Cupcake Bakery is located in the 2nd Floor of TriNoma. And it is located near the reverse fountain.

My first time there was yesterday lunch, while waiting for the second screening time of “Inside Out” in Cinema 1.

So my food is called Country Breakfast. It is consists of 2 sliced bread, sausage, scrambled egg, and fries. I noticed that the fries are in the style of potato wedges.

At first, I thought two sliced breads are toasted, but isn’t. The scrambled egg is okay. The sausage is a little bit spicy. And I like the fries.

And originally, my drink is Pink Strawberry. But the cashier told me that most of the frappes are not available that time except for Oreo Chocolate.

Oreo Chocolate is consisting of chocolate drink and a small piece of Oreo cookie.

The Oreo cookie has the same taste of the Oreo being sold at supermarkets and convenience stores. I like the sweetness of the chocolate drink.

As for the restaurant’s ambiance, my observance is that like you’re in a house.

If you’re looking for other branches of Vanilla Cupcake Bakery, or find out other restaurants, you may check the Philippine website of OpenSnap.

OpenSnap is available on App Store, and on Google Play.

Inside Out (2015 film)

“Inside Out” is one of the movies I anticipated to watch this year in the cinemas. Like the previous Pixar films, this movie is commercial/financial and critical success.

The five (5) emotions have their own roles to play. Maganda yung movie. Even the background music. The movie contains comedy and drama.

I like the concept of the movie, of its subject matter. The five emotions (anger, disgust, fear, joy, and sadness) incorporated in the movie’s sophisticated story.

By the movie’s climax:

* Joy realizes Sadness’ role, to alert others when Riley needs help;

* Bing Bong, Riley’s imaginary friend sacrifices himself to help Riley, Joy and Sadness;

* Disgust angers Anger when Sadness and Joy is about to fall at edge of the Headquarters before falling to the Memory Dump. With Anger’s fire on his head, Disgust use it help Joy and Sadness. Fear help the latter 2 characters climb.

At this scene when Joy gave Sadness the chance to use the control console and gave the core memories. In this scene made me cry.

There’s a special scene being featured in the beginning of the end credits.

“Inside Out” is my second favorite movie all time, the first being “Finding Nemo”.

I do admit that “The Fault in Our Stars” made me teary-eyed. “Inside Out” made me cry.

My second (2nd) time Ginza Bairin in TriNoma.

I don't remember the first (1st) time that I ate at Ginza Bairin in TriNoma. But the second (2nd) time was last time at the aforementioned mall.

I forgot the name of the food I ordered last night. The restaurant also offers unlimited rice, cabbage, and mizo/miso soup. The unlimited cabbage is shredded.

Okay naman yung tonkatsu na may cheese. Malambot naman siya. Okay din yung pagkaluto. Okay yung pagkaprito.

Medyo kamahalan ang mga pagkain nila. Lalo't originally from Japan ang Ginza Bairin.

The restaurant also have branches in Glorietta and UP Town Center:
The Glorietta branch is located in the Ground Floor level of Glorietta 2.
The UP Town Center branch is located in UP Town Center of UP Diliman.

Philippine Literary Festival 2015

I don't remember how I learned about the first (1st) ever Philippine Literary Festival. The 2014 Philippine Literary Festival was held in Raffles Makati.

For this year's Philippine Literary Festival, if my memory serves me right, I learned it from one our Saturday issue of Philippine Daily Inquirer.

Last year, I only remember Amy Tan as one of the foreign authors. This year, it is Matthew Quick and Meg Wolitzer.

Seattle's Best Coffee's Big Breakfast 3

I don't remember the last I ordered this breakfast meal from Seattle's Best Coffee. I tried this when I was at the TriNoma branch of Seattle's Best Coffee. The medium-sized drinks are free when a customer uses his/her August coupon from his/her 2015 SBC Dream Journal.

The customer may choose any breakfast meal from the menus of the aforementioned coffee shop. The staff also ask you if you like scrambled egg or fried/sunny side up egg.

Jack 'N Jill's Chiz Crispers

Okay naman yung Chiz Crispers ng Jack 'N Jill. Lasang Clover Chips ng Leslie's.

If you're asking me of which I like between the two, I prefer the latter. With no offence sa Jack 'N Jill.

St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori in Magallanes, Makati City.

The very first (1st) time I visited the church of St. Alphonsus Mary de Liguori in Magallanes, Makati City, was 5 (five) years ago. During that time, it was the wedding day of my older brother.

And the 3rd (third) time I was at there, was my second nephew's baptism. This time, I wasn't late.
