Looking for a nice place to dine in and make my mother's birthday simple but a memorable one. I called up Jack's Ridge to make a reservation for 15 people.
My mother celebrates her 70th birthday, November 9 at Taklobo Jack's Ridge Resort and Restaurant.

My mother celebrates her 70th birthday, November 9 at Taklobo Jack's Ridge Resort and Restaurant.
It was a gloomy afternoon and I thought my reservation will be cancelled. I prayed so hard that it will not rain that day.
Lord God heard my prayer and I am happy and thankful for this is it the day we've been waiting for, almost 2 days preparation to surprise my mama.
With my mama eldest sister Aunt Mely together with my two kids we arrived there around 5:30PM before the said time reservation we have at 6PM.

As soon as we arrived there all the staff inside TAKLOBO eagerly greeted us and accompanied us to our reserved table. We watched as plates, spoons, forks and glasses of water were brought to table around us.
But what we are all amaze of is what we saw that time...The PEEK OF DAVAO CITY.
The place has a very romantic view around DAVAO GULF, the perfect combination of sky, sea and land. It really makes you happy and it makes my mama more happy too! For so many years living here in Davao, according to her this is her first time to see DAVAO VIEW on top of the hill.
After a few minutes the waiter asked us if we were ready to order and he handed me the MENUS.
We ordered:
 |
| BABY BACK RIBS |
 |
| BEEF BROCCOLI |
 |
| PORK BBQ |
 |
| SINIGANG na LAPU-LAPU |
 |
| INIHAW NA PANGA Ng BARILES |
Yes great and yummy food indeed!!! And their drinks quench your thirst.
 |
| BUKO JUICE |
 |
| WATERMELON SHAKE |
 |
| BOTTOM LESS ICE TEA |
And what makes it more memorable day for my mama? My cousin has just arrived from abroad, and she was very glad to see her "pamangkin"
on her birthday. A bit of shock and surprise I see in my mother's eyes.
Laughter and Fun amidst my teary eyed mom. Tears of joy as my daughter tells me, "Lola is crying"...with people and band serenading her.
....singing SONATA and birthday songs...quiet a surprise for her.
A memorable 70th birthday treat for mama. Thanks to Jack's Ridge Staff for making my mama's birthday possible.
Thanks to all my relatives and cousins for sharing their thoughts and being present in the party.
And Thank You Lord Jesus for giving a wonderful day to celebrate my mama's birthday.
