So i had my way taking LRT 2 purple line then drop off at Araneta, Cubao Station to search for sbarro, which i’ve heard we would pass by 3 to 4 malls before reaching to Ali Mall where Sbarro is situated. Ali Mall is the Philippines oldest mall since 1976 it is named after the famous boxer Mohammad Ali.

Almost an hour or more roaming around Greenbelt Mall in Makati City, sitting on the bench to relax our tired feet, it was dinner time and we’re craving on Pizza, so we get around Greenbelt 5 and i’ve notice on the 2nd level that there’s a pizza restaurant on it, the name of the restaurant is California Pizza Kitchen.
California Pizza Kitchen
As a pizza enthusiast as what I’ve heard that this pizza restaurant started out in Beverly Hills, California in USA on March 27, 1985, attorneys Rick Rosenfield and Larry Flax traded in the courtroom for the dining room. It was in 1998 when California Pizza Kitchen opened in the Philippines, making it as the first restaurant branch to operate outside the United States. Global Restaurant Concepts Incorporated (GRCI), the exclusive franchisee of CPK in the Philippines, brought the world-famous gourmet pizza brand to Glorietta Mall in Makati City and introduced its diverse products and unique dining culture to the Filipinos. The phenomenal opening of CPK Glorietta led to the establishment of other CPK stores in the key parts of Metro Manila: Alabang Town Center, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, Greenhills Promenade, Trinoma and the Powerplant Mall in Rockwell.
Today, California Pizza Kitchen is one of the most respected and recognized casual dining restaurants in the Philippines.

I attended a seminar and workshop in Sta. Mesa, Manila, meantime I took an opportunity to extend more of my staying due to the long weekend holiday on the last week of August last month.
Greenbelt
I’m glad to have a fit or convenient time to do a window shopping at the Greenbelt in Makati City. What does window shopping means? it means to look at merchandise in store windows or showcases without making purchases. Why do i don’t make purchases? due to expensive and jaw dropping merchandise and items that the store sells.
Greenbelt
Greenbelt is an Ayala Malls, the one who gave Davao City Abreeza. Due to my friend which previously visited there. I was curious of the place I want to see the stores that sells branded stuff items. Greenbelt 4 and 5 was the place to be, a raw of High End stores and shops for the likes of Prada, Gucci, BVLGARI, Salvatore Ferragamo, Emporio Armani, Burberry, DKNY, Louis Vuitton, Hermes and many more.
Greenbelt Makati
Greenbelt is the country’s first Premier Lifestyle Center. In the middle of a bustling metropolis, Greenbelt is an enclave of all things beautiful. A three-hectare park punctuated by cascading landscapes and carefully chosen water features re-imagines the typical mall. With a roster of prominent and world-class retailers, restaurateurs and entertainment operators, it defines the premier Ayala Mall experience.

Max’s Restaurant is famous with a tagline “The House That Fried Chicken Built”. I’ve known a little bit of history of this restaurant in davao they put up a branch in SM City Davao way back 2001 when SM City Davao is newly opened. I remember Max’s Restaurant was a classy and elegant restaurant at SM which the place was presently occupied today by Rai-Rai ken and Pritong Manok. I also remember the former Max’s Restaurant has it’s branch at Gaisano Mall of Davao which i’ve heard owned by one of the politicians here in davao, which now the place was presently occupied today by Gerry’s Grill. Sadly Max’s Restaurants in Davao died down in a matter of years.
Max's Restaurant Abreeza Ayala Malls
When Abreeza Mall opens last May 12, 2011, to my surprise Max’s Restaurant is back in Davao. It has opened it’s doors again for davaoeños to taste their great and best tasting foods and their specialty fried chicken. For me I’ve been to Max’s Restaurant in Manila and Luzon. I’ve been dining in their stores in Tutuban Mall Divisoria, Manila, in SM North Edsa branch and in Subic, Olongapo City.
Max's Restaurant Abreeza Mall
Last Saturday I had an opportunity dine in on Max’s Restaurant in Abreeza Mall. The place was a bit jampacked, one of the hostess listed my name and tell us there are vacant table inside but they must clean the table first. So we sit on their chair outside waiting. Minutes later the hostess called my name and told us the table is ready. Then we place our orders. We ordered a Max’s Combo Meals it’s made of their specialty Max’s fried chicken together with the choice Max’s dish! The best meal for the single diner.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was casual and it’s crowded. The bakery was nice it was place near the entrance area, with in minutes our orders arrived. The service is fast.
My partner ordered a Fiesta Plate Fresh it is a combination of Max’s quarter fried chicken that comes with fresh lumpiang ubod and steamed rice, a piece of caramel bar and a refreshing drink it cost 189.00 pesos.

Overall it’s an enjoyable and satisfied meal in Max’s Restaurant we only billed 538.00 pesos. It is truly a tender, juicy and crispy chicken i’ve been tasted. I’ll will try their best seller crispy pata on my next visit.
A Little bit of history, way back 1945 fresh from the Liberation of Japanese invaders. Maximo Gimenez, a Stanford – educated teacher, befriended the American occupation troops stationed at Quezon City. Because of this friendship, the soldiers regularly visited Maximo. This prompted Maximo to open a cafá where the troops could enjoy food and drinks. The cafá initially served chicken, steak and drinks. Maximo’s niece – Ruby, who managed the kitchen, created a special recipe for chicken that became an instant favorite for the GIs. Soon, the Filipino public heard about the delicious chicken – tender, juicy and crispy – and they came too! Max’s Restaurant was born.

In abreeza mall there are so many restaurants specialized in Japanese Cuisine, there are Rai-Rai Ken, Tsuru, Red Kimono, soon to open Sumo Sam by marvin agustin and Teriyaki Boy. I’m not really fond of japanese foods but i like them specially Katsudon since I always ordered this one at the Yurushi Japanese Restaurant nearer from my work place at Ramon Magsaysay Ave., Davao City, it was owned by a pure japanese citizen married to a filipina wife.
Teriyaki Boy
I’m so glad one famous restaurant finally opened here in Davao City last May 14, 2011 the name is Teriyaki Boy. They had branches from Tokyo, Osaka, Manila, Luzon, Cebu, Cdo and Now here in Davao. I never forget their one and only funny commercial way back in 2006 with a not so funny angry mascot.
Anyway since teriyaki boy opened in davao we never get a chance to dine in at their restaurant on a few weeks after the opening date, the place was always jampacked, lots of people came in and waiting in line seated outside the resto. Last weekend were able to dine with this casual dining japanese restaurant.

Cafe Laguna is owned by sisters Jill Urbina Viado and Grace Urbina Absin. They also owned Lemon Grass a thai-vietnamese resto in Cebu and Laguna Garden Cafe also in Cebu. Coming from the family who loves to cook and eat. The restaurant was started by their parents, who both hail from Laguna. Their mother loves to cook because her mother was also good cook, so they adopted the culture of cooking and eating at an early age. the family moved to Cebu from Laguna, in Luzon in 1975, when her father, a military doctor, was reassigned in Camp Lapu-Lapu, headquarters of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Central Command.
In the late 1980s, her mother Julita, who was then working at Montebello Hotel, started a small eatery to augment the family income and share her love for cooking. Later on, the self-service carinderia named Cafe Laguna, was converted into a fine-dining Filipino restaurant, where moderately-priced Filipino cuisine was served by waiters in a casual atmosphere.

Upon entering the restaurant, the waiter/waitress greeted us a warm welcome, given us a table with a nice spot atmosphere on the window.
