Winter in Korea: Beary Good and Beary Bad (Day Four)

November 29, 2010

I woke up late again during our last day. It was a good thing Jen woke me up and I still had 30 minutes to spare. I made it just in the nick of time and even checked out of the hotel, this being the last day and all.

Today's itinerary:
N Seoul Tower
Teddy Bear Museum
War Memorial
Supermarket

I lost my favorite pair of shades in the Teddy Bear Musuem which I was so bummed about. Aside from being the only pair that perfectly matches my face shape, it has also been with me since 2007. :(

I was really bummed and didn't have the energy to take pictures so I just walked around like a zombie. Little did I know that I also lost my gold bracelet that I had since I was a year old!

It was another snowy day today. I love it so. :D (before I lost my sunglasses)
We also get to maximize our winter couture.

Nice! They move too.

I would love to take that design home

This is when I realized I lost my shdes, I took a quick photo and then hurriedly went down

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Ironic Cafe Monaco

Tucked in one of the building along Banawe is a quaint restaurant called Cafe Monaco. From the outside, the interiors looked cozy and perfect for hanging out with friends but I was quite surprised when I stepped inside to find out that most tables were occupied by families. And people actually are willing to wait for their turn to be seated! Kudos for that. My basis for choosing a restaurant is based on the line/wait. If the line is long or the waiting list is long, then it must be worth trying. We ate dinner at this restaurant yesterday evening and I actually loved it! It's a bit weird though that the name of the restaurant is Cafe Monaco but they serve a lot of Korean dishes. My aunt said that the owner of the place married a Korean hence the menu with Korean dishes. We tried bibimbap and at first bite, it was okay but the more you chew the better it gets. Healthy too, with little meat in the dish. Prices are friendly on the pocket too so I will definitely go back to try out thei...
