A family birthday dinner

Despite knowing Ben is not “inetersted” to celebrate Benzs’ birthday with the In-Laws, he didn’t have a choice but to follow my lead. My mom, sis & bro are the 3 most favorite people of Benz in the whole wide world, so it’s only fitting to share this happy occasion with them.

After checking out from the Boutique, it’s time to hit the road for a Family Birthday Dinner. The drive will only take an hour or 2, just enough time even after passing thru Rowena’s. 

My siblings are buffet eaters, my mom – well she can eat a little bit of everything. Then there’s what Benz would eat ? The adults are easier to nourish, it’s the celebrant that needs much brain storming. She eats the usual pizza & potatoes but that’s already what we had for lunch. Where to have dinner ? It could be someplace interesting or fun for her, yet also filling for the tummy.  Burgoo perhaps, Jade Palace ? If I’d ask her she’d say Cinnabon or Crispy Crème LOL that’s for dessert, not main course. In the end, I think the best decision would be Teriyaki Boy. 

Benz loves the Kani salad & the Chicken Teriyaki. If we want her to eat rice, Teriyaki Boy would be the perfect place (besides Jollibee hehehe).

For starters Soup & Salad. Nothing like the warm sweetness of Sukiyaki teamed with the refreshing Kani Salad. The sukiyaki will take the place of the usual birthday noodles to wish Benz long life. It will also be our Soup. 

For Viands : Chicken Teriyaki of course, the birthday celebrants favorite, Gyoza, All shrimp tempura, Tofu.  Even though the viands are already flavorful, I will still opt for the Gohan – Japanese fried rice. Ben & Benz prefers plain white japanese rice. 

Since were eating with my siblings, all orders are X2, albeit I don’t think it will suffice, remember buffet eaters haha so afterwards I think we’ll just spoil ourselves & indulge in much sugar. I am more of a J.Co person, Benz would be both Cinnabon & Krispy Krème, for best pampering we’ll buy all 3 & settle in a cozy coffee shop for dessert time.  Regrettably Star Bucks doesn’t allow other food items regardless of buying all beverages from them. Cinnabon is more client friendly, so off to Cinnabon we go. 

For Ben & Me, it will be Coffee Latte, Benz would be Mocha or Strawberry Machialatto + 2 Mini Bons original. From J.Co would be my Blueberry, Tiramisu & Pastillas De Leche Donut, while from Krispy Kreme would be Benz’z (yes still for benz) Original Glazed. The rest of the family will be treated to newyork cheese cake, oreo, cookies & crème & some other variants all from Krispy Kreme. I am proudly hoarding the J.Co stash, it’s mine mine mine BWAHAHAHA all mine !!!
