My brother has always been telling me to try Mr.Kimbob's bibimbap at SM North food court. I haven't had the chance to eat there until December last year at SM Megamall and I enjoyed it so much although I don't like eating spicy foods. As we strolled around SM Makati yesterday, only one food for dinner came to mind: Bibimbap.

For those who are unfamiliar with Korean cuisine, bibimbap means "mixed rice." Following its name, the proper way to eat it is to mix all the meat, vegetables, rice and gochujang (chili sauce) together.

Here is bulgogi (beef) with carrots, papaya, spinach, bean sprouts, cabbage and sunny side-up egg, served in a sizzling plate with  a bowl of soup.

After mixing everything together but haven't poured the gochujang yet. I ended up pouring everything on mine! I  don't really like eating spicy foods but this has always been an exception.

If you're up for a healthy and budget-friendly meal, bibimbap is one of the best choices. For 95 pesos, you get a big serving of food and nutrients.

This bibimbap is the store's bestseller, of course, they have other foods to offer just that I haven't tasted them yet.

You can find Mr.Kimbob at SM Malls' foodcourts.

Start of our trekking. Yay!

Look at how huge those rocks are. Luckily, we went there on a day when the water  was somewhat raging. I can just imagine my added disappointment if we arrived there with the water almost dried-up.

There are cottages for lease.

The one on the left side of this picture used to be the watch tower. Now on our way back to the lower lake.

Boulders of rocks,, limestone mountains? CHECKED.

All the places are labeled making it easier even for first-timers to familiarize themselves in the zoo.

There are arapaimas in that man-made pond. They were slightly scary to be honest.

Arapaimas are large tropical freshwater fishes. They can grow over 6 feet!

First time seeing live kangaroo! This is a tree kangaroo. *Lol, sorry I didn't know its pose was like that.*

and?

These bears are the newest zoo attraction. Almost all of them were taking their nap.

When we were about to leave this exhibit... one bird was like, "Panget!" we went back trying to find which  that was but it didn't want to blow its cover. Tsk

This amphibian (I forgot most of their names) was dancing near the window when we passed by.

Finished exploring in two hours. And have I told you that the whole zoo is really well-maintained?

Time to bid goodbye...

Why is it that nowadays, we always feel like there's a need for a round two or better yet, three for every gala?

I ordered Earl Grey Milk Tea for a change from my usual Pearl Milk Tea, (I'm not adventurous!) and it tastes good and creamy. I liked that I can still taste its slight bitterness. Perhaps because I set the sweetness level to 50%. I really need to remind myself to reduce the sugar level on all my milk tea orders in the future.

There are different quotes on each drink plastic covering. It's quite hilarious that I got this on my first try of giving pudding a chance and I'm not disappointed. I loved it, oh, I'm foreseeing an added order of sinkers on my next visit.
