Buffet dinner on a Friday night

Hello everyone! I have inactive for almost 6 to 7 hours. I wasn't able to read some article and interact because I was out again for another family bonding with my little family. Our usual bonding includes going out to the mall, play some arcades, do the grocery and last but definitely not the least eating.

Who else doesn't love food? Honestly I preferred to spend more on foods than material things. Tonight, we decided to eat at a Filipino Buffet Restaurant. It has been a long time since we've done it because kids weren't allowed to go inside to dine. But now, that everything is slowly going back in place, we took the opportunity to bring them and let them enjoyed the food being serve. By the way, the name of the restaurant is Cabalen, a Filipino buffet restaurant. When we say buffet, it is a meal consisting of several dishes that the guest or diner serve themselves. In layman terms, it is called eat all you can. You can eat everything as long as your stomach can take it in.

Yummy Filipino dishes is served

Some buffet restaurant is quite pricey but in Cabalen you'll only have to pay 398 pesos per head or approxiamately $8 per person and you can enjoy some Filipino dishes they serve unlimited. Some of the dishes that I dig in first was the pansit puti, pork caldereta and the kare kare with the yummiest bagoong. They also served laing, which is a little spicy that is why I wasn't able to finish it. They have dinuguan and a whole lot more. My tummy was so happy and if only I could eat all of it, however my stomach is so full.

The kare kare is so good, this is my second plate by the way

Although I enjoyed it, I am quite sad because they only serve limited foods, what I mean is that they used to serve a lot of dishes before than today. They used to have halo halo for dessert. The chocolate fountain with some mallows and other treats which the kids love is missing too. Nevertheless, I am happy because my kids are no longer picky with the foods. They eat everything they want and I guess tonight they have eaten more than what they usually eat.

Ginataang mais, our last food before we go out.

We stayed for more than an hour at the restaurant. I was telling the kids that if they wanted to eat more, they can go back at the food counter and get some more. But both of them declined, even my husband who loves to eat seems satisfied with what he got. He asked for the bill and paid for it. When we check the time it was already past 8 in the evening and we needed to hurry up because we're going to the grocery before it closed. But before that, we took some photo outside the restaurant as we forgot to take some photo while inside.

Me and my boyfriends๐Ÿ˜

So that's for today short blog. Thanks for taking your time to dropped by and take a glimpse on my post. I will try to catch up tomorrow, because as I was writing this article it is already past 1 am. So see you all then. Goodnight and God bless.๐Ÿ˜

Sulit ang 398 pesos per head sis , and mas okay talaga kapag kumain ka sa ganyan ay yung hindi ka mapili sa pagkain para hindi masayang yung binayad mo.

Anyway family bonding talaga kayu yan ang hindi mapapantayang kasiyahan ang makasama mo family mo.

True, sayang naman kung kakain ka lang ng isang dish, may secret jan mare, wag ka muna kakain ng rice ar mabubusog ka kaagad. Tapos wag ka rin iinom ng matamis dahil mabigat sa tyan dapat tubig lang para mas marami makain๐Ÿ˜

Hi! It was really a good night with my little family, since the restrictions in our country are being lifted up we can do things that we haven't done in 2 years.

I love a lot of dishes from our country, and no I haven't tried Biryani, but I would love to try if given a chance:)
