Birthday Dinner
Friday, November 17, 2006
My first son turned nine this month on November 10, 2006. He used to celebrate his birthday either in the school or he invites his friends, teachers, and classmates at home for a party. I think he's gone tired of that because now he requested for a private dinner in a restaurant just for the whole family. He wanted Gloria Maris Restaurant but since we frequented the place before, and the place is a bit far from our place plus the weather is not cooperating, we settled for Matutina's instead. It was the first time my kids tried Matutina's so I let them choose the food.
The menu consisted mostly of fried and grilled seafoods with sinigang and kilawen (cooked in vinegar). Among the choices were pork barbeque, grilled squids, grilled bangus, kilawen na bangus, sinigang na malaga, calamares (fried squids), and crispy hipon (fried shrimps). My family chose calamares, crispy hipon, grilled squids, and kilawen na bangus. Most of these can be cooked easily at home and they are the favorites of beer drinkers since most of the food go well with liquor. The food was simple but since my plan was to able to see my kids eat the food that they ordered, I chose this restaurant in lieu of the rest.
