Operating Hours:11:00 AM to 2:30 PM and 4:30 PM to 10:00 PM Daily





Menu: 

It was a late lunch with a friend of mine. We decided to have it at buddies since it was going to be our first time eating there. We were the only customers when we arrived so we got the chance to choose our seats. :)


(On the upper tight corner was their wifi password)

I ordered buddy burger with cheese. The price was different if you ordered it with cheese. I forgot the price but it was no more than 104.00 php. I think. hehe. 



I paired my burger with strawberry milkshake. I accidentally saw how they made it. They placed 3 scoops of strawberry ice cream in the blender and added fresh milk without ice. It costs 80.00 php.





My friend ordered steak burrito (125.00) It was quite big if you're not that hungry. Hahaha. And a lemonade (35.00 php) to quench the thirst! Yummy!

#VUE - the second time around_with casual acquaintance#

April 15, 2013


This was originally planned by Marjorie and I and It so happened that two of our colleagues thought of joining us. Fun! Fun! Fun! We rode a taxi and we paid 204.00 php from IT Park to VUE.

Pictures on the way to VUE...







All servings are good for group. We ordered two starters: Nacho Grande (200.00php) and Chicken Quesadillas (160.00php)


Nachos were better if the chips were soft though it tasted really great

This is perfectly cooked even without the dip.

We also ordered club house (220.00php) for we thought it wouldn't be enough for us.
Yummy!

For our drinks I ordered Iced Choco (80.00php) made with real tablea, Marjorie ordered Mango Banana (110.00php), Sica ordered Strawberry made with real strawberry (100.00php) and Joel ordered Strawberry Banana (110.00php)

Strawberry shake

We paid a total of 980.00 for the four of us and we gave a tip to Rolley (the waiter) for his very well service... :)

#VUE dine and drink#


April 13, 2013


(Note: I didn't take this picture)

Name: Vue Dine & Drink

Address: Cebu Yacht Club, Mactan

WIFI

Operating Hours: 9:00 AM to 12:00 MN Sun-Thu
9:00 AM to 2:00 AM Fri-Sat



(Note: I didn't take this picture)

I thought  VUE (pronounced as VIEW) was hard to find since it was my first time getting there but it was just in front of Mactan Marina Mall beside Anton's restaurant. A friend of mine and I went there around 7 o'clock in the evening so we didn't quite see the yachts but it was okay because the ambiance was so romantic with candle light dinner and a soft music that soothes the heart and the mind.

(Note: I didn't take this picture)



MENU:




Most of their customers at that time were all foreigners of different nationality. I think we were the only Filipino in that restaurant.. hahaha.. Anyway, we ordered Vue's carbonara. I have tasted a lot of carbonara and theirs is also different. It was a bit dry - lack of sauce though there are some spices in it but it was tasteless. I'm not saying it's not delicious but there's something missing.

We also ordered Monte Kristo in Ham, Cheddar and Mozarella. The serving was quite big for 2 people. We didn't actually finish the meal. The cheese overpowered the taste of the sandwich. It was so cheesy. But I liked it anyway.


For our drinks I ordered Strawberry banana shake and a friend of mine ordered Iced Mocha.


This Iced Mocha was really bitter but you can ask for sugar syrup to make it sweet... 


This shake is perfect for me ^__^


We paid a total of 560.00 Philippine peso. It was cheaper than I imagined. I was thinking of paying around 800 php..Lol :P
