BUBBA GUMP
1. SEAFOOD PLATTER
2. OREO SHAKE
SCORE:2/5
COMMENTS: Love the whole concept… Inspired from the movie “Forrest Gump”. The place was full of “Forrest Gump” memorabilia with the movie playing in the background over & over. With a very original way to call on waiters with license plates stating “RUN FORREST RUN” & “STOP FORREST STOP”. However , the food was a letdown because the servings was small & quite expensive.
CREPES AT GREENBELT3
FILIPINA CREPE – MANGO WITH NUTELA
SCORE:2/5
COMMENTS: It was ok, thinking we 3 have to share the teeny crepe… I was paying eh… such a cheapo,hehe… It was yummy enough but the Nutela was melting fast like water from the heat of the crepe
DAY 3
CONTIS AT SERENDRA
