The Husband was away shooting with our friend Z in QC circle. It was going to be a boring Sunday, for me at least. Chloe had a sleep over so Sandy was busy playing with her. Just when I was about to turn on my laptop (I really should get a phone with bigger screen!) to surf, my MIL told us to get ready because we’re going to Sto. Domingo church. She told the girls – Chloe and Sandy to wear their best Sunday dresses too (photos here). After the mass, she took us to Red Crab to have one of the best meals I’ve had this year.

We had crab soup and tomato and bacon soup while waiting for our orders.

Sandy and Chloe enjoyed the place. It’s huge, not too crowded and they had a whole sofa just for them. I can’t remember ever enjoying a meal without being interrupted or having to check on Sandy all the time.

Black Paella – man this is soooo good my sister-in-law and I forgot about our diet.

Camaron wrapped in bacon – Yeah! | Crab in garlic sauce

Looks weird eh? Baby back ribs shaped like a tree according to Sandy | Lengua and Beef Salpicao with mashed potatoes

We were too full to have dessert. Yet I know I could eat more servings of black paella if there are any leftovers left at all. The Husband was too tired to follow so he just went home after their shoot. When I told him about our lunch, he asked why I didn’t bring something for him. I forgot really. I was enjoying the meal too much to think about him at all!
