I am a Vikings girl. Truly & deeply. For a family of 5, eating out at a hotel buffet is ridiculously expensive, so the GOppets have come to love Vikings Luxury Buffet for its super affordable rates and hotel quality food & ambiance. Plus, it really has EVERYTHING we could ever want & look for in a buffet.
You can read ALL my Vikings Luxury Buffet experience HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE. I did tell you that we LOVE Vikings didn’t I? 😉
I can still remember my first Vikings Luxury Buffet foodventure with Kap at its original branch in SM by the Bay. I was all snooty because well, you know Kap’s taste right? 😉 But one look into Vikings Luxury Buffet‘s spread, particularly the awesome & colorful sushi spread on a giant wooden boat, and I was in.. hook, line, and sinker. Pun intended. 😛

Last week, my dear friend, assistant marketing manager RAQUEL BARTOLOME, invited me in behalf of Vikings Luxury Buffet‘s resident prince, CHARLES STEWART LEE for an all-girls special mom’s day treat at Vikings SM Jazz in Makati. A spa, she said. Hmmmnnn.. I wondered how she was going to pull it off. Spa in a restaurant? Let’s see.

I was hesitant because I NEVER go to events alone. I am always either with Kap or one (or both) of my girls, or with my babyson. But then Raquel wouldn’t take no for an answer, so I went along, but feeling lost & apprehensive because I didn’t know who I was going to be seated with. How awkward if I didn’t know anyone there right?
Fortunately, I was amongst friends so at least my anxiety was put aside. I was happily munching along when I almost choked as I saw Kap & the kids on the projector screen. I swear, I left my food halfway & stood right in front of the display so I can hear them better.
So this is all the hullabaloo! I was really cross with them a week prior because I came home to an empty house. Even Lelly was out and I was left all alone. Ito pala ang mga kaganapan! They were in cahoots with their tita Raquel for a mother’s day surprise for me. And what a surprise it was! <3

I must have looked silly standing there, taking a video while ugly crying. WTF. Ugly crying with snot, I swear. Watch & tell me if you wouldn’t, in my place!
