As people close to me know, I do not give birthday blowouts. I am just not used to be the center of attention and I do not think I am such a good party host. I find it a heavy load to talk to each guest. Hihi. I am weird like that. As strange as it may sound because of my job, wherein I interact with hundreds of different people everyday, I am really a shy person.
I prefer intimate celebrations with small groups like what I always have with my family. On my twenty-ninth birthday in April, I took them to Chika-an at Veranza Mall. I liked that they had an
FB page with their mobile number and menu. Not only was I able to get a reservation but also, I got to order in advance.
They definitely had very tasty dishes and my personal favorite was the baked scallops because I'm a cheesy person (double meaning!) My father adored their Citrus Quencher so much he tried to make his own version the day after and was so close! We also tried the other drink, Arnold Palmer, but it was really the Citrus which championed.
