New Years Dinner Manila

New years dinner we trekked over to mom in laws house in sta. ana, it was rainy , and the streets were relativley calm for this time of year. "Bombs" were still going off left and right , like we were in baghdad or something ( normal for the Philippines)anyways we didn't bother to cook that night - we just bought a few meals in a Chinese resto on Pioneer street in Mandaluyong

yang chow fried rice 2 servings good for 8 = $8.75
beef in oyster sauce with broccoli good for 4 = $5.75
sweet sour fish good for 4 $5.25
"buchi" 8 pieces $3.50

so for new years we spent around $22-24 - and this fed a table of eight with left overs to boot!
