Christmas Fooled Day at SM Bicutan


It was in Christmas 2013 when the whole family decided to go out for a movie date since hubby spend his Christmas vacay with us this time and my sister who was also in her maternity leave. It is our way to bond this time since we live in different places with our own family. My sister rent a house in Dasmarinas, me in Bacoor and our youngest who stayed in our ancestral home in Taguig together with his own family.

We agreed to meet together at papa's house in Taguig to visit him too. We have tried to convince him to go out with us for family movie date and dine out. But expectedly, he never come along with the family (as usual). So, we just gave him on hand a cash gift and left him home as the family travel to SM Bicutan. It's only past 2pm when we arrived the mall and lined up for 17 tickets for the whole family (including my 2-months old nephew) since all ages should be paid in full fee. We were very excited to watch "My Little Bossings" of Ryzza and Bimbi that no matter how long we lined up to get in, that doesn't matter to us. We bought the 5:15pm schedule since they flashed on screen that 3pm schedule were already standing audience.

Since we bought the tickets too early for the scheduled time, we decided to have Family picture 2013 at Tronix.

We got back for line to movie at past 4pm (early pa din for the scheduled given). When we were near the entrance, the couple before us told by the attendant that it is already standing audience. He was extremely got mad to the attendant because he bought the ticket at around 2pm just like ours. Then the attendant told us the same..we also got mad because though we bought the ticket too early, we were not guaranteed to have seats..and wait! They have asked us to pay in full for my 2-months old nephew! There also with us 2 senior citizens and 5 children. We cannot watch the movie standing all throughout, so we decided to refund our payment and back out on movie screening.

We have decided to cool down and have dinner at some restos or food chain. Since it's Christmas day and the mall were too crowded and even fast food and restos were fully occupied, it is hard to look for a place to dine-in with our group (we're 17). Finally from skipping to one food chain to another, we have landed to REYES BARBECUE at SM Bicutan which is spaceous and not crowded at that time. We never wonder why it wasn't that crowded as other restos. And finally we knew it when we dine-in. I have noticed that there were only 2 service crews. One at the counter who took our order and same person who serves the food in dining area. The other one is assigned at the galley for cooking ang preparation of food. Arrggh! This must be the reason why they have poor service! They should add more crew because people would rather like a prompt service. They served our order after less an hour and the boys got almost done with their first rice waiting for the extras...sobrang nabitin sa rice that we waited for another more minutes for that! Then when it served, bumaba na ang kinain namin halos hindi na naubos ang extra rice. So take home na ang natira for Yuri (my dog). Buti na lang, masarap ang food nila, so sulit na din. But i don't like their too sweet peanut sauce.

With the not so good experiences for the Family on Christmas day, we decided not to come at the mall on a crowded season as holidays.

And for REYES BARBECUE in SM Bicutan,We liked your food, it's delicious for kids and adults because we all love your boneless chicken and tenderised barbecue but we are sorry to tell that we will not visit your store again until you improved your service. Thank you for letting us experience your foods and services. The kids and my brother switch the moment of long hours of waiting and enjoyed it by playing jack en poy! Because we don't allow the situation to ruin our bonding, we just enjoy it though!
