Food Trip # 36 : My 1st Airline Food

AND AND


PAL Econolight Snacks_01





My 1st Airline flight was Manila-Cebu thru Philippine Airlines flight PR 861, and its my 1st time in Cebu too. Since we (me, my sister and friend) are on a very tight budget, we vigilantly wait for promos and other discounted fares. after a few weeks of waiting, Philippine Airlines introduced its newest Fare Class, the EconoLight. it has a big fare cut compared to their EconoFiesta Class. Aside from that EconoLight Class has no meals/snacks and you will be seated on the last rows of the plane thus the fare cut. so we took it right away. while we are in flight to Cebu, the Cabin Crew serve the snacks for EconoFiesta Clients. As for us, we dont get any "frills". i dont care, as long as saved a lot and landed safely, its all that matters.

BUT WAIT!!!!

a few months ago. the EconoLight Class has been upgraded. it now serves light snacks as seen on the photo. now the difference of Fiesta Class to Light Class is Fiesta Class has 20Kg Check-in Baggage allowance (except W and U classes), unlike Light Class retain its 15Kg Baggage Allowance. Thus on my trip to Cagayan de Oro City last 08 of January, 2010 i now have snacks be served on board. The Cabin Crew will ask the client if he will have water; coffee or tea. i asked for coffee for i am a coffeeholic.

for this flight i had : (left to right) Crackers (red); salted peanuts (white); a cup of coffee w/ sugar and cream (small white and blue sachets). OPPS!!! plush toy not included, he is my model =))

yum yum, what a great way to fly. now i wonder what food does the Business Class have =))

LP # 90 : Balak (Plan; to plan)




Ipon sa Garapon





noong bata ako, mga grade 3 ata, nakita ko ang aking tiya na nag iipon ng 2 piso na decagon - sa isang garapon. bilang bata, guto ko kong hingiin 'yon sa kanya pambili ng ice cream. dahil sa karanasang ito, nakuha kong gayahin sa kanya ang pag iipon sa garapon.

Hindi ako nag iipon sa isang ordinaryong alikansya na gawa sa kawayan o sa karton o sa lata o yung na bibili sa mga malls. mas gusto ko sa garapon kasi parang may "anti-theft device" : madaling makita kung nabawasan kasi makikita ang lebel nya or mabibilang ang laman; malakas ang tunog pag nagalaw; at higit sa lahat, ma didisgrasya ang sino mang babasag o sirain ito.

eto na ang dahilan ng "ipon sa garapon" sa tema natin ngayon.

BALAK ko na pong malagay sa tahimik (at magulong) buhay. opo, ako po ay nag iipon sa kinabukasan ko. alam kong huli na ako sa pagiipon pero di ako nawawalan ng lakas ng loob at pag-asa. kung sabagay diba, 'di naman tayo humihinto sa pag iipon, bagkos, tuloy-tuloy na pag iipon ang kailangan, hindi dahil gusto nating maginhawaan sa hinaharap kundi dahil gusto nating may pagkukunan sa praktikal na mundo.

sabi nga sa isang telenevela "ang gusto ko: walang utang; may kuryente; tubig; pang renta. simple lang" at eto rin ang BALAK ko sa buhay ko.


in english :

"savings in a glass jar"

when i was a child, grade 3 i guess, i seen my aunt saves her 2 peso decagon coin in a glass jar. as a child i want to ask some of it to buy an ice cream. because of that, i imitateded her in saving up coins in glass jars.

i dont save up in an ordinary coin bank that made out of bamboo; or cardboard or can or the ones can be bought in malls. i still prefer the glass jars because it has something like an "anti-theft device" : you can see its level if someone took from it or you can estimate its worth; it creates a noise when it moves; and most of all, anyone will get hurt if he broke it.

now, here the reason why o used "savings in a glass jar" as take for this theme.

I PLAN to have a blissfull (and challenging) life. yes, I am saving up for my future. i know its too late for me to save up but it never stops me or loose hope. besides, we dont end or stop from saving up and we need to continually to save up not because we want to have a rich life but because we want to have some thing (some amount) for this practical world.

i qoute this line from a TV soap opera "all i want is to have: no debts; utilities and pay for rent (house). just simple (life)" and this is my PLAN in my life.

Food Trip # 35 : Chowking Duets B

AND AND


Mandarin Chicken and Crispy Fish






Chowking has a new but limited offering, the Chowking Duets. 3 set meal that has 2 viands and 1 cup of rice for only 79 pesos (drink not included).

For this entry, I first tried the set B, it has Mandarin Chicken (top) and Crispy Fish nuggets (right) plus Rice (left). the Mandarin Chicken has a sweet and sour sauce and Mandarin Orange bits. The fish nuggets has a bit spicy side from its coating - seasonings - and the dip (tartare i guess). the verdict? its yummy good and for a man has the appetite, an extra rice is a must.

rant:

i really dont like to give rants on my blog, but i really do have to, to improve their products and/or services.

i met myGF's big sister in SM Mall of Asia last 08 of January 2010. i orderd this meal and myGF's sister ordered a boneless bangus meal. Unfortunately, they dont have plain rice thus WE MUST ADD 6+ PESOS for a garlic rice. i just felt we been robbed :(( and left no choice but to say "OK!".

how came that they have garlic rice but don't have plain rice at 10:00am :(does it mean that they served us an old rice (kaning lamig) they just turned it to garlic rice? does it mean that they are still cooking rice? when you are engaged in a food business, plain rice is a must and the first thing to consider, isn't it? Before we open our doors, we must have ready fresh cooked plain rice, isn't it?

LP # 87 : Makapal (thick) and LP # 88 : Manipis (thin)




sa may bintana


maayong adlaw sa tanan (maligayang araw sa lahat), pagbati mula rito sa Lungsod ng Cagayan de Oro. naparito ako sa CdO kasi kinasal ang aming kaibigan noong sabado lamang (Jan. 9, 2010).

umalis ako ng Manila noong byernes (Jan. 8, 2010) at ang aking lahok ay nangyari sa araw na iyon.

isa ka rin ba na gaya ko ay nag hahangad na maupo sa malapit sa may bintana?, kahit ano pa mang sinasakyan natin, iba parin ang may "view" diba?

noong pumasok na ako ng paliparan, para i-check-in ang aking bagahe, tinanong ako ng clerk kung saan ko nais maupo, sinabi ko ay "28A, window seat". "27A?" aniya, sumagot na ako ng oo kasi alam kong A at F lang ang window seat sa Airbus 320 na eroplano.

kaso, pag punta ko sa aking dapat na kauupuan, may naka upo namang iba. dahil isa rin akong hindi nakikipag talo sa ganitong bagay, na upo nalamang ako sa kasunod na hilera, sa "28A", eh di nasunood din ang gusto ko. buti nalang at hindi puno ang eroplano kaya walang anomang pang pagtatalo ang nangyari.

excited na ako sa kinauupuan ko, syempre, litratistang pinoy ata ito, kaya di pa man nakakaalis ng boarding gate, handa na ang aking camera. pag take-off, isang malaking kalungkutan ang aking nadama.





opo mga kapatid, MAKAPAL na ulap ang aking nasilayan sa buong flight kaya wala akong magagawa kung di ang magdasal ng himala para kahit manlamang yung ilog ng Cagayan eh masilayan ko. habang makapal pa ang ulap at wala ang inaasam na "view", meryenda muna tayo.





pagkatapos ng mahigit isang oras, pababa na ang eroplano kaya wala na kami sa ibabaw ng mga makakapal na ulap kaya unti unti nang numinipis at nawawala ang ulap at natanaw ko na ang aking inaasam.





dahil pababa na ang eroplano, ang hula ko, yang nasa litrato ay isla ng Probinsya ng Camiguin. ilang saglit pa ay lumapag na ang aming eroplano.

ay! oo nga pala, nakita ko rin ang Ilog ng Cagayan at video na ang ginamit ko para kunan iyon.masaya na ako kahit sa huling pag kakataon eh nag ka view sa may bintana at msayang masaya kasi ligtas kaming nakarating dito. sana sa pagbalik ko ng Mnaila, sa may bintana ulit ako at ligtas muli ang aming pagbiyahe.

ABC Wed R5 : the letter "Z"




Z is for
Zoning





in any place, zoning is the most vital thing in development. we cannot just place a smoke betching factory right next to a residential area. and we can not place a commercial area thats too far nor too near from the residences.

now i miss playing Sim City.

Have a Great Wednesday to all of us :D
