Insomniac's Mind

It's been a while since we last visited my folks back here in Angeles City, so this weekend we're (D & I) making up for the long lost quality time with them. Since it's Mommy's birthday, we scheduled a weekend of activities of her choice.

Today's merienda was at Corazon's. Our home trip won't be complete without a visit to this home garden turned halohalo stand and then small eatery in our nearby village. They are giving Razon's Halohalo, also from Pampanga, a run for their money. Just look at this big house under construction from halohalo earnings!

Our next stop was at Nepo Mall, the first mall in our city proudly owned by an Angeleno way before SM and Robinson's conquered our land. Only here can you find a kakanin stand where you buy per slice of rice cakes, maja blanca, etc. for only P10/$0.20.

Items purchased - caps for Dad & D and playstation dvd for Jerome(my only sibling). Surprisingly, Mom and I were not lured by tons and tons of Kikay stuffs. Mom was there to window shop, and I was tired from driving all the way from Makati.

We had dinner at Shanghai Restaurant. We frequent this place on special occasions - family gatherings, graduations, etc. Our family loves their authentic chinese cooking. Actually this is their new building. The old one was burned down and it took years for the owners to build this new place.

Oh, our favorites in the resto - Bird's Nest Soup with Crabmeat, Yang Chow Fried Rice and Chinese Broccoli with Garlic. The rest of the items in their menu are delicious as well. Busy day? Tomorrow is another adventure. Wink.

Halo-halo sa Corazon's is in Corazon St., Brgy. Cutcut, Angeles City. Since this is quite a difficult location to find, check out their branch right in front of Clark Air Base Check Point, Hi-way entrance. You'll see the same logo as my picture above.

Shanghai Restaurant is in Balibago, Angeles City, very near to Casino Filipino - Angeles.
