WOOHOO!!! Congratulations to Manny Pacquiao! Amazing fight! Knock out on the 9th round was spectacular. Freddie Roach predicted the 9th round and he nailed it big time. I actually felt a genuine concern for Diaz when he got knocked out – the slow motion replay showed a solid hit – you can’t deny it. A blur (even in slow-mo) and a wobbling head of Diaz left to right. That could have been deadly.
Mr. Pacman has proven himself once more with his excellent counter punching and now his right jab is stronger than ever. Good job! Mabuhay ang mga pinoy!

We woke up at around 10 in the morning on that rainy Sunday to try and catch the fight. We were planning to go to National Sports Grill to watch it live on the big screen. On our way to NSG, we saw this banner from Italiannis – weekend brunch buffet for Php655 only. It was like a spot light was directly pointing to this 5ft green banner. Excellent… Last Pacquiao fight, I recall watching it also at Italiannis where they also had a pay-per-view setup so everyone can watch it live. The place was probably 2/3 full – everyone probably had the same idea – eat all you can while watching the fight. Perfect!We were lucky to get a table right in front of the lcd monitor. When we sat down, the Pacquiao – Diaz fight was already starting – round 3. I was already hungry but I couldn’t take my eyes off the fight AND when I glanced on to the buffet table I also couldn’t take my eyes off the food! They had a decent variety of food types to choose from and it was brunch so you can choose between a heavy or light meal. Mmmmm…Anyway, the bell rang – 2 boxers back to their corners and that means that its my turn to fight! Food! I hurried to the buffet tables mainly because everyone was doing the same. It was a race to get as much food as you can and get back to your seat before the bell rings or else you’ll be risking tripping with a plate full of food.
For 655 bucks, I would recommend it – quality food with good variety.
Penne with meat sauce, fettuccine with meatballs, crusted fish, chicken, pizza, sausages, hotdogs, basked mussels and clams, seafood pasta, salads, and you can make your own pasta – decide on a number of ingredients that they have and they will cook it right in front of you. Even omelets – brunch remember?
For dessert, they have a chocolate fountain, some crepes, ice cream, bite size baked goodies, and many more. Good deal.
The actual cost plus vat and service charges will probably be around 755 per person.
Here are some pictures: (I wasn’t able to get some shots of the main dishes – sorry – si pacquiao kasi eh’)
