Grappa’s Ristorante is an Italian restaurant located at the second floor of the Greenbelt 3 Mall in Makati City. Noreen and I wanted to see a movie but we decided not to see one when we passed by Grappa’s Ristorante Italiano and they had a buffet special. A dinner buffet for as low as P595.00 (US$12.14), plus 10% tax. Noreen urged me to have buffet rather than watch a movie. So what made her go for buffet other than the price? See this.

So it’s Maundy Thursday and there are no open restaurants in the city, but you want to eat something substantial because you have a lot of free time lately. Solution; S & R membership shopping. S&R is a really nice place to shop and their main branch at the Fort was so jam packed with people when I went there this afternoon. Here, you can buy groceries, clothes, appliances, electronic gadgets and even car accessories and tires at lower than usual prices.
