Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

What airline? I always found KLM's food is pretty good, even at the back of the bus I quite liked being woken up in the middle of night for my noodles. How come Asians can do flavoured noodles and boiled water that actually tastes like food, good food and yet pot noddle in the UK is the most foul crud ever invented
On a more serious note there are a couple of half decent restaurants upstairs in departures near the lounges, most of the lounge food is pretty poor I'm not sure how much local food your are likely to get there though.

I think it is actually quite Scottish in some ways, high fat, lots of stews and a bit bland except for a bit of spice.
I remember sitting there smelling something very familiar then Ana served up a plate of some kind of fried meat, it tried it and turned round to her and said "Ana this is Lorne sausage!!!!" it wasn't but it was quite close I think it was fried spam
I like the Fish, Adobo, the veg dishes, Kaldareta, Laing lots of little things but I do agree a lot of the indiginous food is bland heart attack stuff just like Scotland
The good thing about Manila is that you can get a really good mix of Asian cuisine at every corner and it's bloody cheap
I just miss the food because it feels like home now, when Ana was here in the UK the quality of ingredients here along with her cooking was absolutely great I was completely spoiled, I had always thought that Nanay was the great cook in the family
Ana really likes my cooking though and I quite often cook for the family when I am there
