A Date with the Birthday Boy!

It's been a while since Hubby and I went out on a date so since it was his birthday last Wednesday, I decided to treat him for dinner and movie last Saturday! We both had a blast, being away from work, tasks, mommy duties, household duties, and all other stuff, it was nice to be alone with Hubby once again.

We dropped Alex and yaya at my Mom's place before we headed to Mall of Asia. We had dinner at Highlands Steakhouse. I've been wanting to eat here actually for a year already ever since I read about the review at Dessert Comes First blog. And now that we had time and budget, we jumped at the opportunity. We didn't have a hard time looking for the place. It was at 2/F Entertainment Hall and the restaurant was at the corner. Yes, the place was quite big and cozy too.

The restaurant was owned by Tagaytay Highlands so I expected really good food. A bit expensive but it was all worth it. I ordered Full Baby Back Ribs (Pork) for Hubby and I had 10oz. Rib eye steak. Would you believe that I finished all the steak by myself!? I couldn't believe it either! We ordered the set menu package so aside from the ribs and steak, we had bread, salad, (yummy) soup, and dessert (which we couldn't finish so we had to bring it home instead!)

No photos of salad and soup because we were too hungry to take photos...LOL!

At exactly 7PM there were fireworks shown at the bay. It was nice. Hubby was able to take some photos.

After the fireworks, some country/folk singer started to sing for us. I'm not too familiar with the songs though but the thought was nice and kind of romantic too. :)

After our very heavy meal, we were too full to go to the cinema so we decided to walk first. As soon as we got tired and since it was time for our movie, we headed to the movie house!

But will get back to you on how we liked "The Dark Knight" so much!
