{ Music One with Erika }

One of my Japanese students Erika Natsume ( back when I was still working as an ESL teacher) has arrived here in the Philippines to study English. I still remember our classes being jolly and hyper and so full of charisma and interest. We decided to meet up and of course, with some of my teacher friends. Namely, Cherry, Tara and Selena.

As you all know, I took a board exam some time ago and was able to make it. And due to the tension and pressure I was facing at that time, and most especially, those extra hours at home, I've gotten a bit chubby. I need to get a workout from here on out. Haha.

Music One is a movie house similar to my previous post . You can choose either to sing with friends or watch a movie. It has a very unique interior. Their lounge has some comfy sofas and not to mention, beautiful chandeliers hanging on the wall.


So majestic isn't it? It has such a wonderful feel to it and I can't point what.


The view outside our window from our room. :"D

A one hour session costs PHP 298. There is also a consumable rate wherein you get to use the room for a maximum of three hours with food and drinks included, for a price of (more or less) PHP 800. 





Getting to sing with my friends after such a long time made my adrenaline rush. The thought of having friends that were with you when you were having the blues made me feel butterflies inside my heart flutter with happiness. And yes, I DO know that didn't make sense. Haha. I just miss them so so much. How long has it been? Four months I guess. But nothing has changed. We bonded like before. It was heart-melting. Friendship is REALLY one of the greatest things a girl could have.

Movie One is located at the second floor of The Walk building in I.T. Park. 



And also, I am very thankful that I was given the opportunity to meet up with Erika. Erika, stay pretty, happy and healthy. Keep improving. I will surely miss you. And continue studying the Bisaya language. Haha. きっとマタいつか.

Your random blogger,

{ Manggahan }

Yup. That's it. That is the title I will have for this blog. Manggahan. Manggahan is a visayan term meaning " a place with many mango trees".  Here, in this case, is the name of a restaurant located at 30 Wilson st., Apas , 6000 Lahug, Cebu City, Philippines.

This is Manggahan's front

I would like to thank Mary Palompon for the invitation. Her thanksgiving party was held here at this place so I decided to blog it all out.


This is the restaurant's stage where they have live bands performing every Fridays and Saturdays. Sad to say, we didn't get to watch a band perform since we visited the place on a Thursday. :D

My point of view.

The counter.

When Mary sent me an invitation to her thanksgiving party and told me the name of the venue, I was like " Say what again?". Yes. With that name, you will wonder. But have you ever wondered why it's called that way? Well, this; I tell you. They have many mango trees located at the back of the restaurant as an extension of the place. Thus, the name.

I just took this shot from the inside.

Manggahan offers a wide variety of grilled meat and seafood dishes, Filipino and Chinese cuisine alike. They also serve exotic meals like Crocodile Sisig for 188 PHP ( Yes, it is sisig made up of crocodile meat) for those who have adventurous taste buds. You can dine in an air-conditioned room or dine outside under the shades of the mango trees.

Their prices are surprisingly low. Their prices for unlirice for mais or corn and humay are 20PHP and 25PHP respectively.

We enjoyed the mouthwatering food and its stupendous unique taste. ♥ It was an all out experience for me.

They also serve alcoholic drinks. So if you want to waste the night away with your friends and still be in a place where good ambiance is present, Manggahan is perfect for you. As you can see, Guada is having a drink herself. :3

We spent the whole evening here before heading out to karaoke again. Me, and my friends. Haha. ♥

Your random blogger and her friends,

Mau ♥
