President Tea House Food Review

If you love food and you're that type of person who can't resist eating even if you're full, then we are on the same boat! :)

Recently, we dined again at President Tea House, and these are just some of their mouth-watering dishes. Believe me when I say so.

Forgive me but I can't remember the name of the dish! I just knew I had to eat it! :)

Crispy Fried Chicken - You can devour their fried chicken without sauce/dippings. Super yummy!
IMG_8454
Yang Chow Fried Rice - This restaurant is famous for their fried rice!
IMG_8456
Fish Fillet- It was served steaming hot to us, as you can see in the photo. If you plan on dining at President Tea House, this is definitely a must-try! The fish is tender and you'll find yourself addicted to it once you start! ++points

Pancit Canton - I love their Pancit as it is not cooked the typical way, which is dry and stale. President Tea House's pancit is saucy, flavorful, and has a fair share of vegetables and toppings.

Beef Brocolli

There were also some Buchi served but we gobbled them up before I even got the chance to take pictures!

And oh, look at these adorable teddy bears! They were on the display window, I'm not sure but I think they come free if you order a certain drink. Not really sure though. I just love how cute they are.

Generally, the food is delicious and reasonable for its price. We'd certainly come back here. :)

Random Day at School

So today is just another ordinary Saturday: I took an exam early morning, ate lunch, studied at the library, drank my favorite oreo and cheese shake for merienda, and spent the whole afternoon with the boyfriend. We talked about random things in life, my dreams, my plans... and he made this promise that really thrilled me. (RM, yes you, prepare for that promise!) I'll do everything it takes to make that happen. Signed March 17, 2012.

I just like to share my usual get-up for school, a flowy top, shorts, and flats. I like to wear heels and get dolled-up all the time but I prefer comfort over fashion. Besides I don't have much time to prepare in the morning! :)

P.S. A realization had struck me like lightning this morning and so I am off to bring back what I lost some years ago..

Haha! I already purchased this one even before it was released online!

We took these pictures just in front of UP Melchor Hall (engineering building). You could just imagine the faces of the boys who were wondering what on earth we were doing!

Mixing Prints

The Institute of Electronics Engineers of the Philippines (IECEP), UP Chapter, has recently conducted a nationwide seminar on the importance of the Licensure Exam for ECE students. Being the marketing committee head for the said event, I know I'll be moving around and keeping myself busy for the day, so I opted to wear something simple and comfortable, while keeping it classy.

Mixing prints (polka-dots and leopard print). I channeled this look from one of
my favorite bloggers, Vern Enciso, see her lookhere.

Outfit shots from my dear friend, Matthew.
I commissioned him as my photographer for the day. It's a good thing he was nice enough to grace me with his kindness (and patience).

I also did not miss the opportunity to take pictures in our lecture hall. It's my dream to have an outfit shot in this room! Heehee

Presenting the team behind the successful event.

Overall, it was a fun and fulfilling experience, especially that I had the chance to talk with various people from the corporate world, from HR representatives, to the company president, to licensed engineers, to the participants who were asking me if I were really an engineering student. LOL.

Why doubtful, isn't it too obvious?! :)
