Night Out with Mom

28th of October-2011, One fine Friday in Jeddah. After a long stay-in at home, Leah has fully recovered and to celebrate it, we went to family's favorite dine-in restaurant, Applebee's. Here in Jeddah, the nearest branch to us is located along Andalus Street near US Embassy. Wow! I suddenly realized why famous international restaurants were located around Andalus area.

When I told Ize that we'll be going outside and going to Applebee's, he was quite excited and asked if his mom was coming along with us. I assured him that his mom will be coming with us and he was so happy. It's been a long time since we all went out together.

We ordered Leah's favorite - Oriental Chicken Salad, Ize's favorite - Chicken Quesadilla and as for me, I ordered something new like their Double-Glazed Baby Back Ribs and tried their Strawberry Daiquiri if I remember correctly.


As usual, we enjoyed the food and the ambience. We loved the baby back ribs, it was very tasty and nicely cooked. The Strawberry Daiquiri however didn't work for me. The minty taste combined with strawberry didn't go well for my taste and I still prefer their bottomless Iced Tea. It's a good thing my Omnia 2's camera is fixed, we were able to capture the moment and here they are:

Before we went home, we decided to drop by at Tihama Bookstore to check out books to read and I was able to buy a new dictionary with thesaurus and a grammar quiz booklet to test and to hopefully sharpen my grammar skills (hope I pass lol!).

I just thank God Leah's doing great, I am hoping and praying for her continued good health. I am also glad the baby is doing fine. We all went home happy and very satisfied. Hope you have a great day ang God bless to everyone.

Thanks Yellow Bells for the visit. Yes, you are right. They do have great tasting steaks but so far the best main course we've tried is the double-glazed. Thanks again.

Glad your wife's fully recovered. Thank you for the information you sent me. I'll be talking to my doctors about treatments and will be at NIH for the next two days for more tests.

Herbert, thanks for visiting. I don't know if there is ever an Applebee's in Manila but if ever there is a branch, I want to try it with the rest of the family.
