The zorb at the mall.

There is a new thing going on at the mall.  But it's not at the World of Fun.  It's outside, at the parking lot.

The Zorb.

One or two persons get inside the 'bubble' which is then inflated.  I just don't know if there can be more than two persons in this type of bubble.

But this type of 'bubble' above is cylindrical and carries at least three persons.

Here the kids are trying to keep themselves standing as the 'bubble' rolls.  The last man standing I guess is the most agile.  You and your friends inside this bubble all at one time spells fun.  The kids inside at this time were having a great fun.

But since this is a water game...

And like all play areas, there are house rules.

Too bad I can't try it myself since I don't qualify.  But I think the kids will really love this.  Not just kids, but I guess anyone who weighs not more than 150 lbs.

You can find this at the parking area of the Sunstar Mall.  Hurry!  Because I don't know how long this 'toy' will be there at the mall.

Mall Food

I spotted this some time last week but they didn't have the smallest serving for me to try.  Yesterday, all the sizes were available and this one is the smallest serving.

They call this Twistix.  It's beside the Zagu stall.  It's fried potatoes on a stick. You have several flavors to choose from, but as for me, I always prefer cheese.  The potato is placed on a stick in a spiral way then deep-fried.  They won't put the flavor until they get an order.  I guess this is not ideal since the powder doesn't bind with the potatoes anymore.

It comes in three sizes, the smallest for Php 45.00, then at Php 55.00 and the biggest at Php 70.00.

Then we tried the Milko ice cream.  It's just in front of the elevator near the grocery.  It comes in three sizes.  The small cone for Php10.00, the big cone for Php20.00 and in a cup for Php25.00.

I opted for the Php 20.00-cone.  It's five pesos cheaper than the fried ice cream.  Definitely, the serving was way too small.  But the taste is way better compared to that of the fried ice cream.

It's hard to decide the next time.  It's either you would opt for better taste but small serving, or a good taste for a larger serving.  You decide.

Hap Chan is now open at the Sunstar Mall

Today, Hap Chan Chinese Restaurant opened at the Sunstar Mall. It's on the left side of the mall's main entrance, just beside Jollibee. The spot where the Laguna Heritage once operated.

It's been a long time since a fine dining restaurant here in Sta. Cruz, Laguna. Back when I was a kid, our family used to enjoy the food at the Embassy Restaurant. I think we had dinner there after my elementary graduation. Then, we have the Columbia Restaurant which still stands until now. Aside from these two restaurants, I couldn't recall if there were others that served good food and a cozy ambience.

By the way, the Sunstar Mall's operating hours have been extended. The mall will now be open from 10:00 am to 9:00 pm to serve us better this holiday season.
