La Mesa


I made a deal with my former supervisor who became one my closest friend, Toby that I will treat him to lunch or dinner when I get my 1st pay from my new company. So, when I got my pay, I immediately called him and arranged a dinner with him. Before we went to dinner, I asked him if I can go to Fitness First as his guest. I really wanted to try Body Jam because he said that it is a combination of exercise and dance. I’m into exercising and not a good dancer but I have a good rhythm.




I went online few hours before meeting him and my friend, Marcie chatted with me through Facebook and asked if I will go to dinner with Toby., I said yes and then she asked if she can go with us. (By the way, Toby is also her former supervisor.)


While waiting for the Body Jam session, I received a text from Marcie saying that Marla will also join us. What should have been a dinner for two turned out to be a dinner for four. Whew! But it was a very nice change because I got to see 2 of my close friends. I haven’t seen them in almost 4 months, which is long, considering that I used to be with them almost everyday.


So I had my Body Jam session with Toby which is really tiring but very enjoyable, then went to shower room. I was just waiting for Toby to come out from his very long shower session (hehehe!) when I received a text from Marcie that she is already in Megamall. I went out of Fitness First to meet Marcie. We were supposed to eat at Brothers’ Burger but Marcie said she wanted to a try a different place. I’m not that picky when it comes to restaurants or any eating place so I agreed. This place turned out to be Mesa, Filipino Moderne. We then texted Toby and Marla to follow us to Mesa. Marla on the other hand, was quite late because there was a political parade on her way to Megamall.





As we entered Mesa, Filipino Moderne, I was impressed by the design of their restaurant. The design of the place is not like any other restaurants. It was indeed a Filipino modern design as they used bamboo as their main material which has a feel of Filipino culture.







As we are waiting for Toby and Marla to arrive, Marcie and I made our plan of attack J . We took the liberty to order food. We chose, Crispy Baby Squid, Pork Barbeque and 4 cups of rice. They served the food fast and food was really delicious. The Crispy Baby Squid was indeed crispy and perfect. Pork Barbeque is also delicious but the serving is too small. The serving is too small that we ended up ordering another food, Mixed Vegetables delicious but you can get the same taste at different restaurants with lesser price and more servings. As I said food are delicious but they have a small serving.


I'm looking forward to my next food adventure.


Happy eating everyone!
