Portion Control
Yup, I’ve been doing a good job of watching what I eat and controlling my food portions and calorie intake. I only started last Monday and it looks like I finally got my mojo back. And not once did I ever consider taking Leptovox! I’m old school when it comes to losing weight. ;) You can only imagine how terribly hard it is to look at and write about food when I’m on a mission to lose weight and not want to have anything to do with food. Hee hee. But I love food, always have and always will. So on with the show.

Revisiting Seasons
Seasons is the premiere buffet restaurant of The Manila Pavilion Hotel. We had the chance to dine there in February last year a few days before Hubby left for the US. I wrote all about it HERE. However, I didn’t post photos within the entry. It’s been a while since we’ve had a decent buffet…buffet as we know it from back home. So join me as I torture myself with photos of what I look forward to having when we come home for a vacation…
Seasons doesn’t have a very extensive selection of fresh seafood. But as long as there are shrimps, I won’t really complain. 
This is Oscar. :) He was in charge of all the cooking at the seafood station. He made us very yummy tempura and if I remember correctly, he also made me some shrimps in garlic and butter.
Kebabs overload! Oh why did I ever stop eating beef and pork?
Cookies and assorted chocolate goodies to tickle the kids’ tastebuds…and those of the kids at heart, too! ;) You bet I was tickled silly. Hee hee!
This is the part of any buffet spread which I will most likely skip so I can have room for the “dessert heavy weights”…heavy in sugar and heavy in calories.
The Halo-halo station. That time, I skipped this one, too.
This is Melvin. He made me my favorite buffet dessert of banana caramel crepe topped with vanilla ice cream. *sigh*
The next two photos are of terrible quality but I just wish to show you how dessert was so beautifully presented…
Isn’t that the prettiest flan ever?
And here are more uniquely plated desserts . I can no longer recall what these are exactly but I’m guessing sans rival, chocolate mousse and strawberry cheesecake.
By looking at these pics alone, I think I’ve gained a few pounds already! It looks like I’ll have to invite hubby to join me hit the treadmills at the gym tomorrow. *cross fingers*

PH #12: Self
Interesting theme for this week’s photo hunt…”Self”. :D I have a lot of photos of myself on this site so there’s no reason why I should be, er, shy about showing myself. Hee hee. I chose to post the very same pic found on my “About Page” :
This was taken at the Austin Museum of Art in October last year. I’ve featured this slice of bread in my edible art entry and I used the method behind decorating this slice of toast in last week’s photo hunt.
My other photo hunt entry is HERE. You can visit other photo hunters here.
Have a great weekend, y’all!
