Sumo Sam

One weekend,  due to boredom, I dragged my younger sister, Manel to Marquee Mall (a new mall in Angeles City owned by Ayala) to check some make-up stuff.  Looking for a place to have our lunch, we ended up at  Sumo Sam.  I was craving for Japanese food so this was the right place.    

The ambiance was okay.  The menu has extensive dishes to offer which has caused a problem for a person who's very fickle-minded as me since I had to change my order now and then. :D  So, what did we get?   

Crunchy Squid @ P138. This is an appetizer that is sweet & spicy.  I like this dish particularly the cucumber that was added to balance the spiciness and sweetness of the sauce.  

  

California Roll @ P189.  Nothing spectacular about this dish. I  prefer the California Maki at Hanami along Fields Avenue over this one.  

  

Ninja Fry at P108. When I got this dish, I wondered on how I will eat it. LOL.  Anyway, I used chopsticks and had around three bites to finish it. Haha!  The dish is like a tortilla-wrapped dish except it's nori that was used to wrap the rice and vegetables. Nothing more to rave about. :(  

  

Beef Yakinuko @ P228.  Overall the dish doesn't taste good.  The rice is soaked with too much sauce/drippings from the meat dish.  However, the beef was tender and tasty.   

  

My sister and I were not happy with the dishes we ordered, thus may think twice of going back to this restaurant.

the kids in us...

Last night after my shift, my sisters, our friend and I had a date.  We all met up at SM Clark around 8 PM.  It's easy for my youngest sister and I to go there as we are both working in Clark.  We planned on watching the last full show of "Here Comes the Bride".

On our way to the cinema, we passed by "World of Fun".  Manel and Tin "nagged" me and Mye to try a game/ride at World of Fun. They told us we would enjoy the experience and that it's somewhat similar to Rialto in Enchanted Kingdom.  Oh well, Mye and I both gave in after being "pestered" by them. LOL. 

 Mye, Manel and Tin while waiting for our "ride". 



Mye with our mini rider.  There was a couple inside before us.  Can you see the guy's hand in the rider?



It was our turn! We need to wear seatbelts. It was as if we're going somewhere farther. Hahaha!



 Yay! The game and ride was about to start.  We chose number 3 which is a Space Roller Coaster.  It was fun indeed for I have a partner who kept shouting! Haha! The ride could have been better and more realistic though if I was not seeing bright light on my lower left side from the outside.



 On another story, since I am talking about games and being kids, last year my colleagues and I went to an off-site team building and went crazy over Lazer Xtreme in Market! Market! in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig.



 It was cool seeing the leaders in their vests and laser guns.  LOL. This group was my team's enemy. 


 


My group.  There was a father and son who joined our team and they were good so we WON! Yay! There was no price though. :P



 I love this game! It is a great way to really lose weight. Look at all our hair! They were a mess after so much perspiration from running and fighting even if the whole gameroom is fully airconditioned.  This is a must try for groups having team building or for friends who just want to go bonding.  It's a lot of fun because there are times you get confused on who your enemies are. Hahah!
