hello saturday!
It was a beautiful Saturday. The sun was out and skies were clear, but it was pleasantly windy so I didn’t feel much of the heat at all. My co-worker and I met up for lunch at Gram’s Diner in Rockwell.
Rockwell is one of my favorite places to shop, dine and hang out. It’s a self-contained community with several residential buildings, an office building, a grad school and a mall that houses local and imported brands. It also has a Tent that holds events and weddings, and for this weekend, they have a bazaar.
Gram’s Diner is the only diner-style restaurant in Rockwell and it is in this area called the Block 09. It is a little ‘island’ just across the mall that has coffee shops and restaurants where you can dine al fresco. I love diner food, but I was feeling a little patriotic that day so I got the Patriotic Breakfast. It’s actually a Filipino breakfast with a choice of tapa, longganisa and daing na bangus. This is a no-brainer: I love tapsilog.
The beef they used is done bacon-style and it was crispy and absolutely amazing.
After lunch, we jaunted off to the mall and just walked around and tried on stuff. There was this pair of shoes that I am thinking of buying. I am still thinking about it as I write.
My co-worker and I thought of buying knock off Wayfarers but decide against it. Instead, we headed off the bazaar. It was packed and I lost interest in going around to look at the items but I got a white leather chain bracelet instead and put it on together with my Philippe Charriol bangle and studded leather bracelet. I am so into rocker / punk style right now, but I couldn’t really pull it off so I resort to just buying accessories.
When we got out of the tent, there was a familiar sweet-smelling smoke that seems to be coming off a grill. And there it was, the sign says it all:
Aaahhh… Boracay. It is officially summer people!!!
