pattylaurel: The Way to Shabuway

I've heard raves about Ganso- Shabuway from close friends for a couple of months now but it was only last week that I actually had the chance to make my way to Shabuway in Greenbelt 5. I love Shabu-Shabu restaurants, it's such a fun dining experience for big groups and even couples. It's a very healthy alternative to the usual greasy and guilty dishes we often devour during the holidays. This makes this even more enticing for oldie b' goldies..at kaya pala eto yung pinili namin for our Christmas triple date?! Hahaha! Excuuuuuse me, we're forever YOUNG!!!:)

Most of their Shabu-Shabu sets consist of Meats and Vegetables, which is great for both the meat lovers and the vegetarians in your barkada. I'm keeping my fingers crossed though and hoping that they introduce a Seafood Shabu-Shabu set soon. For more details about the restaurant, I shall turn you over to the foodie expert to Anton Diaz.

Triple dates are always fun, especially since we all get along so well. It's like we're still in grade school, the girls bully the boys ALL the time. Ask Julz, his wife Stella always reveals his deepest darkest secrets to us..like a certain someone he "DOESN'T FOLLOW" on Twitter..but searches for everyday. Let's just say it's not exactly the Twitter profile you'd like to see on a top lawyer's page. Hahahaha!!! Peace, Julz! It's also nice to celebrate each other's big milestones together..like baby girl #2 for the Catilos! Congratulations! Hooray for improving the human race with your pretty girls :)

I know we've all been complaining about the crazy Manila traffic all over twitter, and I share your frustration. But when you come to think of it, the reason there's traffic all over the metro is because we're all trying to get somewhere special and at the end of the day it's all about our LOVE for OTHERS. We endure the crazy traffic to get to our Christmas parties, to buy gifts for our loved ones, or to have little intimate dates with close friends..just so we can make others feel special before the year ends. It's the ultimate sacrifice to brave the traffic, it's a genuine way of saying..I shall travel for 2 hours because your friendship matters to me. That's why I really appreciate get togethers like these, simple but very meaningful. Christmas is definitely in the AIIIIIRRRRR. Get ready for more posts on our Christmas party/dinner hopping adventures!
