My Overdue Valentine Post

At long last I was finally able to make an entry about our simple Valentine's Day celebration! I was glad that I was able to make post this before the week ends. 

Now, let me start by saying that I am really not overly excited with Valentine's day. As a matter of fact, I find eveything so overly commercialized. Oh no, it's not that I don't have that romantic bone...On the contrary, I the type who loves to kiss, hug & cuddle my loved ones almost every minute. My husband even compares me to a cat! ;)) Despite being a hopelessly romantic, I am not really that ecstatic with Valentine's Dat. This is just my personal view because I believe that love should be celebrated everyday - from the moment we were born up the time we say goodbye to this life on eart - because love is everywhere and we are surrounded by it for our entire life!

Anyways regardless of my views, I do not want to disappoint my husband so we still went out after office and looked forward to having dinner at some decent restaurant. Unforunately and as expected, everyone was out to celebrated the V Day with their loved ones. Even the medical people who were still in their medical uniforms were out and about that day! And every restaurant that we went to were jam packed. The only place that we saw that was not too crowded was Tokyo Tokyo so we decided to just have dinner there and try their burgers.


We had the Kani Salad - a combination of magoes, crab stick, cucumber and mixed greens with creamy Japanese mayo.


Hubby & I both ordered for a Shogun Burger which has some onion rings inside. This may be the size of a regular burger but for some reason, it was so filling.


We also ordered for an extra serving of onion rings. I am a big fan of onion rings but I am a little disappointed with this one. Well, it was not as good as the ones from Pizza Hut.

After dinner, we had a quick trip at Conti's with the hope of grabbing a Mango Bravo from my parents and that's their all time fave!


By the time we arrived at Conti's, can you believe that my queue number was 423! My fingers were crossed while waiting for my number to be called and hoping that they would not run out of Mango Bravo. Unfortunately, since that's the best seller at Conti's, the last piece of Mango Bravo was put in a box 5 minutes before my number was called so I had no choice but to settle for a Sansrival which was the only cake that appealed to me. 

There you go! That was our simple and humble V Day celebration!
