Super special to celebrate with the BFFs – Luzanne @ltmanlapit Det @detdeleon Lucille and Brenda @brends.c and Des in spirit always – at the Spectrum @rafflesmakatihotel @fairmontmakatihotel When I’m with this group it’s a different bonding – aside from food- we talk a lot about God and how we can become closer to Him. So it’s nice and it’s a necessity for me. In a few weeks they leave me to go on their walk at the Camino Santiago de Compostela. I wish I were going but told them to just pray for me. 
Special lunch today at Spectrum @rafflesmakatihotel ? Chef Nicolas Cegretin and Chef Wade are here setting up the buffet. They have a secret which I can’t reveal but will do in time #rafflesmakati #fairmontmakati
I love coming early to buffets when everything is still presented so pretty At the Spectrum @fairmontmakatihotel @rafflesmakatihotel buffet #fairmontmakati #rafflesmakati
Tops are the best and the deadliest. :-O Roast beef at the Carving buffet of Spectrum
Eyeing this hasselback potatoes beside the carvings 
Our favorites today at the Spectrum @fairmontmakatihotel @rafflesmakatihotel buffet – Make your own pasta at the Pasta Station, Sinigang sa Miso Salmon, Hoisin lemon pork BBQ, Porchetta from the carving station, fresh Parmesan cheese from the salad station which we eat with everything! Darjeeling mousse, chocolate sheets, Mint Chocolate chip ice cream ( A Must!) and Mango Sorbet. The ice cream is from New Zealand and it’s so good! #rafflesmakati #fairmontmakati
Thank you to the Raffles Hotel for making our get together even more special ? #fairmontmakati #rafflesmakati #H2HCelebrations #h2hbdaycakes
