Ever since the multiply page got demised, my interest in blogging went kaput. However, when I met Mila the Joker (and with the encouragement of Carlo) I decided to start "sharing stories online" again.
I don't know why, but often times I am caught in the middle of craziness and moments I cannot explain. This experience can either be funny, can really be an epic fail or simply put my "sabaw moment".
As my first throwback thursday (TBT) entry, I will share a 'sabaw moment' I cannot forget:
Location: Jollibee (which I will not mention the branch, baka sumikat pa sila) LOL
I ordered breakfast meal while waiting for my sister. I had a medium-sized pineapple juice which to my surprise doesn't taste like pineapple. It was bland, as if it was a mix of 1/4 juice & 3/4 water with a very little hint of pineapple flavour.
I had to call the attention of the crew, not to complain, but to ensure that the next one to order will not have the same experience. I didn't even plan requesting for a replacement, however:
Crew: "Mam, pacencia na po. Sige, Sabihin ko po sa kitchen"
Me: Okay, sige thank you.
Few minutes after, he went back and asked for my receipt.
Crew: Mam, sige palitan po namin yung juice nyo. Nagtimpla na po ng bagong juice. Kunin ko lang po resibo nyo.
Me: Ah, okay. Sige lang. Thank you.
Again, few minutes passed the crew handed me my receipt & the juice.
Crew: Okay na po ba?
Me: Yes, okay na. Thank you ulit.
Then came the 'manager', I assumed because she's wearing a different uniform. She approached, and..
Manager: Ma'am okay na po ba yung juice nyo? Sorry po kanina hindi maayos yun timpla.
I was thinking, wow this is definitely a good customer service, checking customer's satisfaction.. Or so I thought.
Manager: Ma'am in behalf of the company, we thank you for the immediate feedback and pacencia na po ulit. Ito po oh, (handing me "SOMETHING") as sign of.. I forgot her exact words, it could be loyalty or for my honesty, I dunno and I don't care, because at that moment, I was either fighting myself not to cry and die laughing in front of the manager.
Because to my surprise, she handed me their daily newspaper with "Property of Jollibee" stamped on it!
I mean, what the?... I was expecting their tuna or peach mango pie at the least, but a newspaper? Come on!
Can anyone figure out why a newspaper?.. Darn.

Just Do Eat.
Why do they call it a DIY food? When all you have to do is choose, point and decide what to put in your pizza, salad and/or burger. Why not call it "PIY" for point-it-yourself, or better yet have every single ingredients packed with detailed instruction & DIY at home, just like how you cook an instant noodles. Voila!! My DIY project! Or Whatever. LOL.
I have heard and read about the do it your own resto, and I must say it's a hit. I have tried the Project Pie with my friend, Ianne and love it the first time. Though it would be more fun especially for the kids and the not-so-kids anymore, if you will actually create your own pizza by putting the ingredients on the pizza dough. But the thought of it, could be a little messy. Nonetheless, i love that I was given the liberty of creating my own pizza with my own flavour.
On the other hand, when I've read about the DIY salad, I was thinking, Seriously? Salad at your own risk? Probably because am used to the ceasar, thousand island, asian & vinegrette-kind-of-salad. So the thought of making your own salad, from the base to the dressing, is a totally new experience for me. Out of curiosity, we went to Juju Eats and found out ourselves.
I chose to have their house mix plus 3 freebies (slices of green mango, grilled zucchini & cherry tomatoes) and paid additional 25php for slices of chicken inasal. My choice of dreasing was a bit safe: honey ranch which to my surprise complement the green mango & chicken. I am a happy camper for 185php. :)
The place was crowded on a Sunday, maybe because we went there during lunch time. The interior was okay, and the trivial wall about veggies/food added coziness to the place.
Will definitely go back to try other salad as they boast 5000 combination according to their website.
I have yet to try Burger Project and Slappy Cakes. Let's see.
On the other hand, do you know a place where I can have a 'do-it-your-own' coffee?! Or cake, perhaps? Hmmh.. Just a thought.

Not bad for 285php for a 4-slice pizza.
