I picked up O and Ellona for dinner at Circle's Event Cafe at the Shangri-La Hotel in Makati. Buffet! Buffet! Buffet! Before they had dessert, O said "I hate you, Ven! I'm on a diet!" then Ellona looked at me and said, "I hate you too!!!"
I left the SD card for my camera at home and the thing doesn't have internal memory so sorry boys and girls, for the grainy pictures. I used my phone's cam and the area where we were at that night was a bit dim so I just adjusted it in photoshop.

I drove to Bacoor after work to pick up the sisters initially to take them to Alabang Town Center. The sisters wanted to go somewhere else other than SM Bacoor cuz they go there almost everyday that I guess people from Ace Hardware and Big Apple Express Spa know them already.
The drive from Bacoor to Alabang Town Center would take about an hour or so because it was already rush hour in Zapote area that it would be better to just take them to Makati which is farther but would take less than an hour. I was thinking of taking them to Greenbelt and watch a movie after dinner but I realized they haven't been to Rockwell Center yet and so we went...
Rockwell Center is tucked away from Makati Business District where the finest malls and restaurants are. It features the Power Plant Mall which used to be a thermal plant, closed in 1994. It has four levels of retail space occupied by various quality shops and dining outlets. The shops are pricey but it is the least congested compared to other malls in the metro.

At the ground floor they have a branch of Rustan's Fresh, a local supermarket where O happily did a bit of grocery shopping. She's been complaining about how there are no herbs, progresso, classico and-all-that-kitchen-what-have-you at SM Hypermarket. It's because whatever it is she's looking for are the things Juan Dela Cruz will not really buy unless Juan Dela Cruz is heavily influenced by Uncle Sam ooorrrr if your household income is about 80,000PHP or greater orrrr you're a culinary person looking for ingredients for your non-filipino dish. Rustan's Fresh carries a lot of imported goods so most of the people who shop there are from upper middle class to Manila's elite. O was a bit frustrated they don't have Classico ALFREEEYDO Pasta Sauce.

O and I had dinner at Pho 24 whilst Ellona waited for us because she wanted to have
her favorite Rigatoni All'Alfonso at Cibo.
