It's All About "ME"

I had an early birthday celebration when I was in Hawaii. My parents and I had a big lunch at Max's of Manila (Waipahu). We feasted on Pork Sisig, Max's Chicken, and Chopseuy. Now that I've mentioned about Sisig, I am starting to crave for it. This was my first time to go to Max's, as the restaurant opened in Hawaii about two years ago. I really like the place. Anyway, I decided to make a small celebration of my birthday today. My real birthday is in two days, but I'd be busy with work by then so I decided to make this day all about - ME.

The small Boston Cream Cake was a license to eat sweets, dates, and my favorite Melting Moments cookies.

Why four candles? Because 3 + 1 = 4.

  8. Thank you everyone for all the greetings and best wishes. The chocolate cake was delicious. The middle of the cake is filled with oozing, creamy custard and the chocolate topping went so well with the custard. It's a small cake, and I have it rationed to a slice per day (five slices). It will last for a week =).

    Cheryle and Daphne, Yes, we have a Max's restaurant in Hawaii. I really like their food.
