Va Bene in BGC's Central Square Mall

Lunch last Friday with my favourite Serendra resident was in Va Bene. I had already eaten in the Va Bene branch located in Petron Dasmariñas Village before, and this branch opened just last year. I was also able to try their catering service for an event in Serendra last 2014 - Valentine's Day dinner. I was able to meet Chef Massimo and his wife Carolyn, and they were able to help me with the heart's day event in Serendra.

For starters, we ordered Arugula Salad with Chicken Milanese. The salad had a light balsamico dressing. I took a picture of it, but after reviewing it on the laptop, it was quite fuzzy.

We ordered two types of pasta. The first one, which was such a hit with me, was the Veal Cheeks Ravioli with portobello mushrooms, veal juice, and fresh parmesan cheese.

Our 2nd pasta was the Black Ink Tagliolini, which had mixed seafood, marinara, and light tomato cream sauce. We had it topped with fresh ground pepper and minced chilis to give it an extra bite.

Va Bene uses fresh pasta, which made all the difference. Their pasta was just superb. I remember they used to sell fresh made pasta in the branch in Petron Dasmariñas Village before.

We had such an appetite for lunch, because that morning we went to Shaw Boulevard, to Jelly Bellies, for a meeting regarding the party we're organising for April. The theme of the party is Strawberry Shortcake, which is so retro, but apparently has been revamped for 2014-2015.

Please feel free to visit Va Bene in Central Square Mall, and do try their delicious fresh pasta.

Old Navy Sale

Hope this isn't late for some. I was able to visit Old Navy in Bonifacio High Street last night and discovered that their denims and woven pants were on sale!

The sale is on for 3 days only, it ends later, December 14, 2014. Old Navy in Bonifacio High Street is open until 11:00PM, so please find time to visit. Pants that were PhP 1,650.00 are now at PhP 1,155.00. That's substantial savings if you ask me. Their denims are priced at PhP 1,650.00 - PhP 1,850.00, and because of the 3-day sale, is still subjected to 30% discount.

I was able to buy myself a pair of broken-in slim khaki pants at PhP 1,155.00. Such a steal! And for the taller people, just like Gap, their pants come in lengths of 30 and 32. If you're on the shorter side, the shop does free alterations.
