We were once again at Eastwood to usher in the new year. New Year's Eve dinner was at the Richmonde Hotel. We had the buffet at the Eastwood Cafe, and the prime rib and boston clam chowder were just awesome! Can't help to have seconds...all this holiday eating will put me back on diet mode again! The little one was also on chocolate high that even his daddy didn't object...
I met up with Ros and Fro afterwards but Ros had to head back home to prepare for New Year with her family. Fro and I headed to Friday's for some drinks where last night's attempt on getting my (early) birthday shots was redeemed! Fro got me some birthday martinis first. The espresso one was really good but the mudslide was what reminded me of my fave Black and White at the News Room:
And finally, my birthday shot - lemon drop shots done the right way!
We then headed to the condo so he can meet my family and I was surprised that the little one warmed up to him instantly! He's usually shy when there's new people around but the moment he saw Fro, he immediately took out his toys and talked to him non-stop! Both of them don't know tagalog so I guess they had something in common..hahaha!
Good thing it was Gabby's bed time already so Fro was able to get away - I thought they'd spend the rest of the night playing angry birds on the iPad! We then headed back down to the Distillery for more drinks this time with my brother and brother-in-law. On a side note, that Absinthe shot was just wicked! One is enough for me!
Fro had to leave though and head back to Makati just before the fireworks. With the rest of my family, I waited for the countdown and ushered in 2012 with high hopes of a more awesome year!
Thank you 2011 and bring it on 2012! Happy New Year! :)
