My Birthday Celebration
Sharing some pictures from my birthday celebration
No, I didn’t get an LV nor a heart pendant jewelry but I did receive a handwritten love letter from The Husband and a very nicely drawn Birthday Card from Sandy.
At the last minute, we’ve decided against hotel buffets. So I searched online for the best steak restaurant in Makati and found two options – Myron’s Place at Greenbelt 5 or Melo’s at Greenbelt 1. I chose Myron’s because I just love Greenbelt 5 and just before I logged off from Twitter, I read Kelly’s tweet suggesting we should try Myron’s too.
I regret that I didn’t take enough photos of the place because I really like how well lighted it was. When we entered the restaurant, Sandy got excited upon seeing my name on the table and kept whispering in a loud voice “Mommy, it’s J-O-Y. That means it’s our table!! I love this place!”. And I couldn’t agree more. Aside from two caucasians having lunch, we had the entire restaurant to ourselves. The Husband was in heaven too because you know how he hates crowded places. I’m sure the price have to do with it but when we received our bill, I was so pleasantly surprised that it’s exactly the same amount that we paid on my last birthday at Verbena, Discovery in Tagaytay. Except this time, the food was so great and so many that we even had left overs for dinner.
After our much enjoyed lunch, we went to Ayala Museum. It’s my birthday after all and I’ve been planning to go there for as long as I can remember. I was a bit disappointed on the number of paintings on the third floor but the diorama section blew me away. I am literally close to tears while The Husband (thank God for my very own tour guide) told stories after stories about our heroes – from Rizal to Mabini to Ninoy. I admit I never really paid attention to History while I was in school but now I just can’t get enough of it.
But back to happy thoughts. Sandy loved the museum and we would’ve signed up for the stencil activity that afternoon but we got hungry (yes, after all that meat and fat from lunch) so we went to Cafe Breton to eat some crepes.
You would think we’re so full that we won’t have to eat dinner anymore but nah. With our leftovers from lunch, (steak, wagyu burger) The Husband ordered a veggie pizza for “side dish”. I probably gained a lot over the weekend but who cares, I can always diet next week
. More to come!
