Food Trips and More

ELEAT is famous for our food trips, loud voices, louder laughter, and never-ending bloopers.

Even before Lady went back to town, we’ve been to endless food trips! Let me recap all the foods we’ve had in the past 4 weeks.  ENJOY THE FOOD PORN! ;)

(1) Cakes Galore: Lachi’s and Sugar Munch

Frank and I were supposed to meet RB at 3PM but since he was super duper late, we decided to eat at Lachi’s. Frank had the (1) Unforgettable Baby Back Ribs and the (2) New York Cheesecake with Blueberries. I had the (3) Pasta with Red Pesto Sauce, and the (4) 5-Chocolate Torte Cake. While we were walking the roads of Marfori to supposedly burn the fats from Lachi’s, we dropped by Sugar Munch and had their (5) Strawberry Shortcake.

 
(2) Yellow Cab at SM

Frank, RB and I had dinner at Yellow Cab. The three of us devoured the (1) 14-inch Manhattan Meat Lover’s Pizza and (2) Sola Raspberry Drink.

(3) Al’s Diner

Frank and I went out to have lunch at Al’s Diner. Frank had (1) Savory Beef Rice (2) Al’s Happy Burger with Medium Crinkle Fries and (3) Mango Milkshake. I had Al’s Happy Burger with Medium Crinkle Fries and (4) Strawberry Milk Shake.

(4) Kopi Roti

After Frank finished his day’s transaction at the Med School, we both decided to eat at Kopi Roti. Frank and I shared the (1) Kopi Bun and (2) Kaya Toast. I had (3) 2 cups of their delicious Kopi, while Frank could only take 1.

(5) McDonald’s GMall

Lady was late for our 5PM. Frank was starving and so we decided to go with Frank to McDo while waiting for Lady.  Mostly, Frank devoured his Burger Meal, but Donna, RB and I shared the fries with him.

(6) Lachi’s

Went to Lachi’s in Marfori for dinner.  Frank and I had the Unforgettable Baby Back Ribs; Lady had the Mandarin Chicken; Donna had the Lechon Kawali; and RB had the Elsie’s Melt-in-your-Mouth Pork.  Dessert was on Frank and we had the most sumptuous cakes! We ordered the (1) Dulce de Leche Cheesecake [It was everyone’s favorite, I think.] (2) Black and White (3) 5-Torte Chocolate (4) Macadamia Bar and (5) Luscious Mud Pie.  The Peppermint Tea I had helped me digest these babies. Hahaha.

(7) Chips + Tequila

 
Donna, Frank, Lady, and RB went to my house for some bonding moments over Tequila.  We devoured (1) Clover Chips (2) Doritos (3) Lays and (4) Cheezy. When the chips were gone, my brother Klyde cooked us a can of corned beef while we finish off the 950mL Jose Cuervo Tequila.

(8) Sleepover

Being the ELEAT-ers that we are, we ate a lot during the sleepover with Frank and Lady. We had (1) KFC’s Box of 8 of their Original Fried Chicken for dinner.  And then there was the (2)Pastel and the (3)1kilo Spaghetti! Lady and I ate the extra cheese for snacks. Haha. And we had Frank’s pasalubong (4) Strawberry Jam and (5) bread for breakfast.  And to help us swallow all of these was the “kinutaw” Iced Tea. :)

(9) Badminton + Window Shopping

I met Frank for lunch at SM’s Rai Rai Ken before heading out to our badminton reservation with Lady and her siblings.  Frank and I had the (1) Jurassic Maki, which was really really good (2) Chicken Teriyaki Don, and (3) Ebi Curry Rice.  After our sweaty 2-hour ‘game’, we all went out to check the bargain malls near the court.  On our way out, we all enjoyed some much-loved street foods! I had the (4) Kwek-Kwek, while the rest of them enjoyed the exotic (5) Proven.

 
(10) Penong’s with Ian

I wasn’t around for this one, but I know they had dinner at Penong’s with our high school buddy, Ian.

(11) Friday at the Fontilla’s

It is common knowledge that the Fontilla’s mountain home is well-stocked with delicious food! Frank, Omay and I went there to indulge our baboy-ish appetites. From 3PM to 9:30PM, we ate the following: (1) Strawberry Jam and Bread (2) Kalamay (3) Polvoron (4) Mixed Veggies (5) French Fries (6) Penne Pasta with the exotic tasting spaghetti sauce-ish with eggs and milk c/o Tita Bing Fontilla (7) Panga and Rice (8) Manggang Hilaw (9) Pretzels (10) Lechon Manok (11) Liempo (12) Fried Sword Fish (13) Double Dutch Ice Cream (14) Pineapple Juice (15) etc.

Now that Lady’s heading back to the mountains and seas of Dumaguete, and Frank will be going back to the war town of Pikit, the Davao food trips for the Summer ‘09 will now come to an end.

Hoping to see you guys in Manila in 2 weeks! Can’t wait to have more food trips with Frank, Lady, CHIC, and JUDE in Manila! And of course, Lady and I are on for more food trips in Hong Kong next month! Can’t wait to live the ELEAT life over and over again! :)
