At 12:00pm of December 5, 2015, I took
my lunch at Sushi Express which is located at Newark Shopping Center
along Newark Boulevard and Cedar Avenue in Newark, California, USA.
Sushi Express is a brand new Japanese restaurant at Newark Shopping
Center. It is a sushi boat type of restaurant. You have to get a plate
of dish that you want along the line conveyor. You can choose from a
side dish, sashimi, sushi, and even dessert. Green tea and pickled
ginger are free and unlimited. The Japanese soup which is a miso soup is
not free. You have to order it for $1.50 per bowl and it is not
refillable.
The price of each plate is $1.50 no matter what type of dish or dessert that you picked up from the conveyor.

After we visited the Capitol Commons
and the downtown area of Pasig City on October 3, 2015, we went to The
Podium which is located at Ortigas Center in Pasig City, Philippines.
The Podium is also a shopping center located at Ortigas Center, Pasig
City. It is also located at the back of SM Megamall. Since we came
early, we had a tour there. There are many stores, restaurants, and
salons inside The Podium. It is not a very crowded shopping center
compared with the other malls and shopping centers.
At 6:00pm,
we had a dinner at Healthy Shabu Shabu located at the second floor of
the building. It is a Japanese restaurant and you can cook the food at
your table. You can dip the choice of your food in a boiling soup or
stock like Japanese beef, big prawns, fish fillets, tuna slices,
scallops, and assorted vegetables and noodles. You can season them with
sauces and condiments. We ate there with my friends from PSI and OCCI
like Rocel Santiago Borilla, Benjie Leogardo, and Aurora Cobarrubias.
Our other friend, Claude Santa Ana was not able to come for any reason.
We spent our time while cooking, eating, and socializing to each other.
Because of having social networks like Facebook, I was able to find and
communicate with my long time no see friends from PSI and OCCI. We
didn't see each other since 2000 when I came in USA. I made a promise
that I will meet and see them later if I will visit in Philippines
later. Thanks God that my wish came true. I know that it is hard to
invite people because of their hectic schedules.
