Rediscovering SM Fairview

(from here onwards are 9 foodie field trips of the past year)

We are supposed to be seeing a movie at SM North's IMAX before we head to Fairview to attend Anne's birthday. But, our plan backfired as we discovered that the movie isnt worth watching. We decided to go straight to SM Fairview and check out was new.

After the longest time, i again set foot on the same mall that was a witness to a lot of *ugh* moments in my life. We were surprised to find that a lot has changed and the mall has a new wing already. New stores, new restaurants equals food trip!

One of J's favorite is Takoyaki Balls. and HUC on the other hand, is sickened by its taste but all that is about to change. They stopped by the Food Court and spotted Ohayo. They're not your usual Takoyaki as it has different varieties from Squid to Crab to Chicken.

a bed of Ohayo goodness
 
We also tried Gilson Nook's Coffee Jelly. It was not that bad. Surprisingly.


Coffee Jelly in budget

After a quick snack, we continued to stroll down the basement area when we spotted Magic Pop. It was kind of intriguing as it had a loud popping sound that echoes the entire area. It looked like a fluffy object flying out from that weird looking contraption. Magic Pop is one of Korea's favorite rice snack. It tasted like chicharon, a more filling one, but without the guilt. You can actually have fun eating this product because it is tasty and healthy at the same time. It comes in 5 flavors namely Chocolate, Strawberry (actually its not really Chocolate and Strawberry flavored but its more like a drizzle only), Cheese, Barbeque (which i looooooooooooove), and your trusty Plain. We really ate it as our pulutan and pairs well with beer. Well there goes the healthy snacking. Haha.






Its also good for dipping too!


Strolled a little bit farther and as we got to the far end of the mall where the entertainment center is located, we decided to go up to see the view as they had a contest of some sort.


Di na ako mabugnot mamasyal sa SM Fairview. Maluwang na siya!  

Of course, we never forgot to stop by our childhood favorite food stall. Scramble! Its like a shake with a thicker consistency. Its pink but its not strawberry. Its topped with powdered milk and chocolate syrup (it was Brown Cow back then. I remember sneaking out of bed just to have a little, oh. okay a big gulp of it straight from the bottle.). But now, its just some weird flavored syrup. Boo.


Oh yes. Its cool to be Pinoy. :)

J likes his scramble done in a specific way. Topped with lots of powdered milk!

you can never have too much scramble in one day!

And for my most favorite part, SPAM JAM! We have heard of this and forgot about it and never got the chance to visit it. So, now's the perfect time!


This was once mine.. And now i miss it. :( See that? Its only 38php!

There were only 3 items on their menu. Spam Musubi, Spam Burger and Spam with rice and egg.

J's Spam Burger. The bread was nice. Its like pandesal. Thank God. Kus it would fail miserably if it was paired with sliced bread.

My Spam Musubi. I <3 it terribly.

Our short foodie field trip only cost us below 500php! At its a record! Even if we didn't eat real filling food, we still had fun. And its all that matters.
