Lunch time tips after classes

1. If you're already there, don't go anywhere. Never mind the people and the available seats, they're going to go anyways.

Yesterday after class, we headed straight to the caf to eat lunch but unfortunately there were a lot of people and there weren't any seats available for a big group like our small batch. JP decided that since he's going to AHS, he said that he's going to eat at ISO Caf. ISO rang a bell, so I went with Elaine to eat with JP at ISO since I live there anyway, and I can go home afterwards. Mev, Nico, Lester and Robert followed.

2. Don't get intimidated by long lines. You'll get to the front in time anyway.

At ISO, we stopped at the sight of the long line. The seven of us just sat outside and decided whether we're staying there, going back to the caf or eating at Katipunan. Robert went home and the six of us were still there, hungry and undecided. After long long long minutes of discussion, the line in ISO caf was already gone and so we decided to just eat there.

Wasted time.

3. If you're buying extra rice, buy it after your food gets delivered. Don't buy if you know there's a long line before you who ordered the same food.

All of us ordered the legendary ISO caf pork sisig...and the other people before us because there weren't any more food left. Elaine, Mev and I ordered extra rice. Apparently, the wait took us more than 30 minutes and the extra rice we ordered was like dried rice because our table was under a big ceiling fan. JP bought our extra rice for half the price because he insisted, and that he'd buy us a new one.

Never buy extra rice especially when your seat is under any fan or when your order would take too long to arrive. Trust us. It's going to be dried rice afterwards.
