Goodah, Dona Soledad

We usually have brunch after hearing mass every Sunday and Goodah is one of our go-to places. We usually have one of the silogs plus some side dishes.

Goodah at Dona Soledad in Better Living was renovated about 2 years ago and it's a pretty cozy place to go to and it's open 24 hours a day! It's the only other place that's open all-day, all-night in Better Living now (the other one is Sinangag Express. Tropical Hut used to be open 24 hours a day when it had a full restaurant).

Here's some of the things that we usually have whenever we dine in:

Army Navy Burger + Burritos in Paranaque

Army Navy Burger + Burritos opened a few weeks (mid-March) ago at Dona Soledad Avenue in Better Living Paranaque. We lost no time and found ourselves visiting the place on March 21 for some late lunch/merienda. Good thing I brought my car since the only parking space available was perfect for my tiny car.

The exterior and interiors of the shop was the same with all other Army Navy branches. I like our branch here since it's quite spacious with a lot of seats and spanking new (haha)!

And you can also opt to sit outside.

I was quite hungry, so I ordered a steak burrito -

Sweetie had a starving sailor - steak -

The Libertea (beverage) matched perfectly our order -

And after dining you can throw your trash in the cute bin.

Army Navy Better Living is located where Chowking used to be on Dona Soledad. Across it is 7-Eleven.

Shopping in Paranaque: BF Ruins

Now called the "Good Shephered Bazaar". BF Ruins has been around for many years now and used to be available only during the Christmas season. Now there are shops open as early as ten in the morning (very few though).

You will find some food stalls in the middle of the bazaar. Here's one that offers Malaysian and Singaporean specialties.

 A lot of stalls sell clothing, for men, women and kids.

Gadgets -- mostly phones and phone accessories. Some stalls offer gaming gadgets and even tablets. Don't expect though the sales ladies to have more info about their products they are selling.

Fashion accessories like hair clips, bags, belts and all kikay stuff abound.

And, of course, dibidi of every kind.
