I don't usually wear a dress but when I do, I make sure that there's a special occasion behind it.
Haha.
We post-celebrated our 4th Anniversary by hopping into three places, all in one day:
ATC, Nuvali and Festival Mall Alabang
(but these pictures were only from Nuvali).
As you can see, though I'm wearing a dress, I just couldn't go girly all the way! I matched it with a casual fabric tie-it belt and Pacsafe anti-theft bag.
For lunch, we chose to eat at Claw Daddy's...
Unfortunately, they ran out of crabs (our desired serving) they still have remaining crabs but the serving is good for 5 persons, and though we eat a lot, it's just too much for us.

| Poor Ian.;p |
Instead, we ordered these:
 |
| The grilled salmon is deli, but it's sauce...it's too salty, it's like a yellow-colored salt melted, literally. |
 |
| Again, the oysters with melted white cheese on top of it was yummy, and its presentation was okay, except for the salt which was generously poured on the bottom of the shells, which made one oyster too salty I can't eat it when it clumsily fell on the plate. |
 |
| Chicken was okay but gravy, not. (Jobi and McDo's gravy tastes a lot better). Anyway, the sweetness of the corn make up for it. |
 |
| Grape juice for me- and I must say it indeed tasted like grapes (but lacked sweetness). The tissue says John Bamboo..because Claw Daddy's and John Bamboo were sister restaurants (located on one roof but two dining areas connected to each by an opening in the wall, seen on the previous photo). and we sat on the John Bamboo corner of the restaurant. |
fish pond, just in front of Claw Daddy's.
Lots of families were also there that day, enjoying themselves on the not so big but scenic and restaurant-clad Solenad 1 which surrounded the fish pond.Visitors can feed the fish by paying 100+ for it (which is quite uneconomical, in my opinion).
Also, there is a lake (not sure if it's man-made) where you can ride a speed boat to go
to the other part of Nuvali.
Then, we also strolled Solenad 2, which is few steps away from 1.
Solenad 2 is like a business complex, where food and shops abound. There is a Robinson's grocery store,
and some random tiangge items on the tents in-between the concrete-roofed branded stores
which sells clothes, shoes, gadgets, etc.
We went to Filinvest after..but we got tired of taking pictures so that's it!;p

Anniv aside, I got this cute inspirational vintage looking necklace for only 50 pesos in a street stall.
Sweet, huh?
