Bonding with Cousins at Sandbox and Camalig

Let's take a break from the usual gaming stuff that I post. This entry is a must: I have never had this much fun in a very long time.

My cousins and I have an annual post-Christmas bonding time and for this year, we decided to go to Sandbox in Porac, Pampanga. We were all very excited for the trip, since it was out first time to go out-of-town together as a group.

See how psyched everyone is?

There were a lot of people, thus very long lines starting from the entrance down to every single attraction. But hey, we went there to have fun, and how much fun we did have!

Movie Stars Cafe: Let Them Entertain You

When I pick a place to satisfy my appetite, a buffet is usually the last thing on my mind.
But if I’m with friends or family, I prefer a place where there’s plenty of time to enjoy each other’s company with plenty of food to pass around, all while having good clean fun.

Movie Stars Café has easily fulfilled those criteria.

Princess Cow and I first saw this restaurant at the Mall of Asia Bay Boulevard a few months ago. The giant gorilla head protruding from the wall is more than enough to get our attention. The place was packed, mostly with kids. What caught my eye though is that there were a lot of cosplayers inside, giving me the impression that perhaps there was an event at that time. It took a second look for me to realize that it was in fact a restaurant with cosplayers as their actual performers, putting a show for the crowd.

I promised myself I’d go there someday.

Fate pulled a couple of strings and got us an invitation to dine there.
