There are so many birthday celebrations in April! My Dad and Mom just joins us all together every year for our birthday celebration since we are all in April and one in May
I featured this table already before. Mom had this made so we can all fit including the 3rd generation
Catered by Kai. The majority of the family always prefers to have meals at home especially when we are a big group. Sushi and Sashimi buffet for appetizer
This was my favorite – though it looks like unagi – half of it is foie gras sushi 🙂 YUM!
I asked Mom if I could take charge of the cakes this time- so I tried to get the favorite cakes of each celebrant
Pavlola for my sister – we both love Pavlova

White Chocolate Mousse by Gateau de Manille – one of my favorites in College. I put those polvoron cupcakes on top 🙂
Turtle pie from Goodies N Sweets for M. Jun Jun – they did not have a big size so I just got mini ones and just added those merengue haha!! it got eaten so fast
I wanted a Rainbow cake for Pam but the Cake Shack was not accepting orders that weekend 🙁
So I got a mocha cake instead from Cake Avenue which is actually something I like more than her haha!!
And I made this for M. Noey since he is the Starbucks guy 🙂 I ordered the cupcakes from Cake Avenue and just assembled it. Happy birthday to all of us!

Heart2Heart was so happy to try the new feature at the Paseo Uno buffet. What better to feature than our very own. I wish they feature many other provinces so we can try the different cuisine from our country. Why do we have to always be so colonial and think that imported is always better, when our very own has its own charm and unique qualities. I am quite familiar with some of the dishes since my Dad’s family is from that region, so it feels like home to me in some way
They even dressed up the place Visayan
By the entrance are goodies from the Visayas being sold- Barquillos, Otap, Piaya, Toasted Mamon, Galletas and Lenguas de Gato
Flowers and decor by Robert Blancaflor who was there yesterday
The buffet includes all these vendors going around with taho, dessert and appetizers

Lola Menchu and Javs had a good idea for Papa’s birthday! Javier was to cook the entire dinner! Javs loves cooking in Lola’s kicthen because he has the whole place to himself and Lola provides all the ingredients! haha 🙂 They go shopping together all over the place- Rustan’s and Gourmet Garage
Here is the Chef in action wearing a Chef’s hat and apron! So cute!!
It’s so hard to take his photo because he gets mad at me
Safari theme by Mom 🙂
It was a very very good dinner, we all loved the food from beginning til end. One day he told us he will be the first to open the first Michelin star restaurant in the Philippines! 🙂
He has been cooking this several times already and I keep telling him to repeat so he can master the dish and true enough he is perfecting many of his dishes
I taught him this before which we tried from Cibo – but he did it differently, he put cheese inside the squash flower and it was really really good
This is one of his masterpieces and everyone loved! Turkey which he brined overnight and cooked with maple syrup and goose fat! That’s his own invention 🙂
Goose fat from Gourmet Garage Subic
Not to mention the Foie gras stuffing which he made! YUM!!!!
Javs bought Kurobota pork at Rustan’s supermarket and he made it into Tonkatsu – it was very very good!
Lola Menchu and Javs went to Salcedo market to get the fresh crabs and seabass. WOW!!
His leche flan is also very good- he used the egg yolks which he separated from the whites which he used for the sea bass
Papa was very happy Chef Javs cooked for him! It was a dinner made with love!
We had a very simple celebration for James’ birthday. To make it easier for Dad, we just bring the dinner to him so we just order out and eat at home with Dad
Just to make it a but different from the normal, I set it up a bit. Thank you to Windsor and Tiffany for the beautiful black chairs which immediately changed the mood of the dinner and gave us more room in the table rather than the usual chairs we have here

Congratulations to my beautiful, smart, loving and sweet hijada, Daniella! How fast time flies, I can’t believe she is already going to College! She was accepted in all the schools she applied to and she chose to go to THE Ateneo 🙂 which made her Lolo Jun very happy
The eldest daughter of my sister
Lolo Benny and Lola Charing were there! What an honor to have them both come and attend this special celebration
Happy to be with the Tiangco family
MJ and Chris- The Lacoste boys 🙂
My sister, Maricar, is the one now designing all the decors and set ups of the Rustan’s Flower shop. I love the terrariums, the birdcages and the crystals on the lamps all from Rustan’s Flower Shop
Maricar also chose all the food dishes – all the favorites of Danni

At the same time as the La Prairie Workshop, there was a Bridal fair at the Manila Pen so I went around for while just to take a peek
