Hello, dolls! So I’ve been away for a couple of months for my internship so I wasn’t able to keep up on the stuff that I wanted to share here on my blog. One of which is my post about my Mom’s 42nd birthday at Romulo’s Cafe.
We picked Romulo’s because it’s close to our house and also, it has an interesting concept. Whenever we pass by the parking lot is full so we knew it’s the perfect restaurant to celebrate my Mom’s birthday.
My Dad never fails to give my Mom flowers for special days like her birthday.
Romulo’s is situated in Quezon City. It’s not hard to miss because there are lots of cars parked outside all the time.
The lounge is very posh! Definitely perfect for cocktails.
Chick Flick
My siblings and I loved their signature mocktails. This one’s my favorite. Milkshake in a martini glass!
Banshee
Banana Milkshake
Pomelo Salad
I felt like I was having dessert and appetizer both at the same time. Loved how the strawberry vinaigrette blended with the subtle flavors of pomelo and the greens 🙂
Ensaladang Filipino
Do not order this when on a date. The bagoong was really good but will definitely give you BB! lol
Tito Greg’s Kare-Kare
I swear, Romulo’s and LJC’ group’s Kare-Kare is at the highest point of my favorite Filipino dishes of all time!! This was beyond great!
Pancit Puti
My Dad was quite hesitant about this because it lacks sauce BUT this dish was such a revelation that up until now he can’t stop raving on how simple yet very flavorful this dish turned out to be. A must try definitely!
Bagoong Rice
Flying Tilapia with 3 sauces
My brothers loved this! It goes perfectly with the Ensaladang Filipino 🙂
Bagnet Pakbet
Our table wouldn’t be complete with a vegetable dish so we ordered Renzo’s favorite vegetable dish — pakbet.LOL!! Kidding aside, this was phenomenal!
Callos
My Dad misses my grandmother’s callos every day! So whenever he sees it on the menu he makes sure that he gets it to see if it’s close to how she would make it. We all like the callos Romulo’s. The tripe was very tender and the sauce was very flavorful.

For dessert, we decided to go to Bubble Tea since it’s nearby.
Oreo Cheesecake
cause you can never go wrong with oreo cheesecake 😉
Matcha Green Tea Cake
YESSS! A cake made for me!! YUM!

A must on every birthday! 🙂
I treated my Mom at Blue Water Day Spa as my birthday gift.
Happiest Birthday to the best!
