For my cousins Nikko and Hosea's joint birthday, Nikko chose to celebrate at Guevarra's.
I've been here long, long, long time ago when the place was still a spa and lounge called Tian Di. Now it has been converted into a bright and white Filipino restaurant.
The Fatterside invaded this room. The rest of the restaurant was full that night.
I am not really a big fan of buffets and Filipino food. Guevarra's made me love them even a little bit less.
Grilled and fried appies
Salads and sashimi
Hot dishes
Desserts
The only thing that excited me was this soft serve carabao's milk ice cream machine
(because there was ube!)
They charge a penalty for leftovers so I tried not to take too many food that didn't look
interesting. It wasn't very difficult.
My plates:
The fried green chili called Bicol Express Surprise created fire in my mouth. I loved it.
YES, I ate these isaw and adidas thingies.
Other dishes were simply forgettable
From the dessert spread, I only liked the tablea mousse. It was dark and delicious.
I noticed the shot glasses were not very clean-looking.
My favorite from the whole buffet spread was this ube carabao's milk ice cream.
Such a pretty color, too! :)
This was my cousin JB's ube-vanilla soft serve. I imagined if Barbie had
a pony, its dung would look like this. :P
The staff surprised our celebrants with a birthday song number
And mini birthday cakes. This was Hosea's.
And this was Nikko's
Of course, we brought our own cake buffet, too!
Baby Yulo Strawberry Shortcake, Dianne's Homemade Chocnut Cherry Cake
Guevarra's Cupcake, Hyatt Toblerone Cake, Honeybee Assorted Cakes, Guevarra's Choco Cake
Pia y Damaso Figs Cheesecake, Gregory Guy Chocolate Cheesecake, Midnight Snacks Cupcakes
WHAT THE H?!?!?!?!?!
After much pleading from Nikko, they agreed to waive the corkage.
Happy Happy Birthday, dearest cousins!!! :)
It was nice to hang around at the gardens after eating too much cake
Guilty as charged!
