We, the </span><a href="http://cebubloggers.com"><span style="color: #ff9900;">Cebu Bloggers Society</span></a><span style="color: #ffffff;">, have been invited to celebrate his special day in a small resto called Cream and Bake located somewhere in Mandaue City, Cebu. Even a small resto could fit the large number of CBS folks. The room was filled with many Christmas decors along with their specialty which were the cakes on display. A long table was placed in the center of the room for us. Much to our surprise, they don&#8217;t just serve desserts but they also serve the main courses. All of their dishes were superb.</span></p>
<p style="padding-top: 5px; padding-right: 10px; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 10px; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0px;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Here are some of the foods served:</span></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">The part where the feast took place:</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">After our sumptuous dinner, we then headed to Cafe Shang to continue our celebration, around 100 meters far from Cream and Bake. Cafe Shang has a videoke spot so once we got there, all of us were ready with our song numbers. It was our 2nd time in the place. The 1st was after the <a href="http://www.karenveloso.com/2009/10/the-2009-philippine-blog-awards-night-in-visayas-region/">PBA</a> night. Then, soft liquors were served particularly San Miguel Beer Light and Red Horse. Also, a bottle of Tequila was passed around by<a href="http://ibeejing.com"> Beejing</a>. We totally enjoyed our night until 1:00AM. After which, we went home thanking Atty. Ethelbert for his unforgettable birthday treat.</p>
