Our Japanese boss, Suwa-san, invited all his team members and families to celebrate his nth birthday at Fortune Hongkong Restaurant located in MacArthur Hi-way, Tarlac City last September 9, 2010. September 10 was actually his birthday but we celebrated it on the 9th because Malacanang declared 10th as regular holiday in observance of EID’L FITR or Feast of Ramadhan.
Together with my husband, my 3- year old daughter and 1-year old son, we go to Fortune at 7pm. This restaurant is a really good and lucky fortune indeed. They serve Chinese dishes mainly. What we have in the table? Well, a good tasting seafoods, fish fillet, pork, shrimp dumplings, shrimp siomai, Chinese rolls and spinach soup.
Dessert follows with “ube” cake from Red Ribbon. We also gave a simple token to the birthday celebrator such as barrel man, sling bag, and a coin purse made from real bullfrog! I guess we made his birthday in a special way somehow…
Let us travel around the world: Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, ASIA, USA, Alaska, Canada, London, Paris, Europe, Spain, Saudi Arabia, anywhere around the world!

Eat All You Can at Huat Chan, Tarlac City
Last August 24, we joined Sir Rey’s farewell party at Huat Chan in Tarlac City. Huat Chan has a promo of Eat All You Can, Ice Tea All You Can that time. It was a sad thing to say farewell to a friend who have been a companion for 12 years in the company. But, all are happy because the foods are all great.
I guess I have tasted all the foods present on the serving table. Menu includes Yangchow fried rice, Huat Chan fried chicken, sweet and sour pork, fried spareribs, fish fillet, sautéed beef with broccoli flower, special pancit canton, cold cuts, hot cuts, pork asado tepanyaki, crispy pata, sisig, tempura, fried prawn, steamed crab, and many more. We also had a bottomless ice tea, halo-halo all you can, and coffee all you can!

Yakiniku at Niji Restaurant
We all know that Japanese cuisine offers a great variety of dishes and regional specialties. The word 'Yakiniku' means grilled(焼) meat(肉) in Japanese.
At Niji restaurant, we ordered several types of prepared raw ingredients which are brought to our table. Raw ingredients like beef, pork, and vegetables. We cooked the ingredients on a grill built into the table throughout the duration of the meal, several pieces at a time. The ingredients are then dipped in sauces known as tare before being eaten. The most common sauce is made of Japanese soy sauce mixed with sake, mirin, sugar, garlic, fruit juice and sesame.
The yakiniku tastes really good!

Dining at Niji Restaurant, Angeles City
Angeles City is becoming an International Culinary hub because its culinary spectrum has broadened significantly all these years. The city has embraced the international cuisine and very eager to learn new ways of preparing foods.
Weeks ago we have a dine-in at Niji Restaurant, which is located along Friendship Highway in Angeles City. The restaurant has captured Japanese ambiance. After tasting what they have prepared for us, I can say that Niji Restaurant has excellent and authentic Japanese cuisine.
Food has never tasted this good! Hopefully I can dine again here soon.

Reminiscing The Past
It was 2002 when I was hired with my current company. I am part of the Circuit Development Team and we were 19 members before.
Year 2007 came when it seems everybody were not happy of what they have because of different reasons (from different individuals). Some members claimed that they can no longer sustain their family needs with their current compensation. Some reasoned out that they wanted to take a greater challenge with their career by joining a company with better career opportunities. And some have realized that they need to make a career move to support a long term dream for their family. Maybe a better environment and life style for their family.
In the picture shown below are the original members of our team (only 10 members were present). All of the members in this photo, except me, are now in different companies abroad. And I think they have a better life now!
The original 19 members of the team have left 5 members only. I am still working with my company for many reasons and prefer not to list them here. Now our team composes of 9 members (4 oldies and 5 newbies).
