Very recently, hubby and I celebrated our happy forever anniversary over a lunch buffet at Buffet 101 in Robinsons Magnolia.  We love having buffet whenever we celebrate an occasion and it was a sweet treat for us that Buffet 101 has a branch at our current favorite family mall!


I always choose lunch buffet over dinner because it's a perfect time for me to eat aplenty.  Of course when you eat buffet you want it to be sulit, right?  Since it's an anniversary celebration, we prepared our tummies for a gastronomical experience expected at Buffet 101.

Ready for the Buffet Fight

First, Buffet 101's Menu Price.  Lunch and Dinner rates differ as well as the day of the week.  Rates for dinner and weekend are more expensive than lunch and weekday.  That's also one of the reasons why I prefer to have bonggang lunch buffet. :)  Here's their rate:

Early this week, hubby and I celebrated his birthday.  I got up early to hang the H-A-P-P-Y  B-I-R-T-H-D-A-Y signage, wrapped his gifts and wrote a love letter on a cute greeting card.  He woke up to all these surprise elements plus me singing the birthday song. The gifts cracked him with laughter!  Why? He thought the giftwrapped toolbox was a box of shoes. I got a little creative.  He told me before of his child dream to become a carpenter.  So I bought him a toolbox, a saw and construction gloves.  I really wanted to make him laugh, I'm so proud because my punchline was a hit!
