I still can’t believe that my little boy is already 8. We celebrated with the family last Friday, and since it was his special day, Little MrC got to choose where we would have lunch and dinner. For lunch, he chose one of our super favorites, Omakase. For dinner, it was Project Pie.
Before heading out to dinner, MrC gave our birthday gift to the kiddo. He asked for binoculars, and MrC was able to find a nice National Geographic one at Hobbes and Landes.
At Project Pie, I was initially overwhelmed because it was our first time there and there were so many options! It takes me a while to order because I can never decide what it is I want, so I was feeling kind of pressured in line when it was time to build my pie. Yes, I take these things seriously. Fortunately, I did good with my pizza, which had red sauce, mozzarella and Gorgonzola cheeses, prosciutto, fresh mushrooms and a sprinkle of Parmesan on top.
I think the little guy and MrC put red sauce, tomatoes, mushrooms, pineapple, pepperoni, meatballs, bacon, mozzarella and Parmesan on our second pizza. I recently discovered that I’m not a fan of pizza that’s loaded with toppings, so I only had a couple of bites of this one.
I, of course, tried everyone’s creations, and among all the pizzas our family made that night, my favorite was the one built my my sister’s boyfriend, Koko. He chose the #6, which has grilled chicken, sliced red onion, cilantro, mozzarella, Gorgonzola and barbecue sauce, with additional bacon. I am definitely ordering this next time, but without the cilantro (I don’t like cilantro!), and with prosciutto instead of bacon. Yum.
After dinner, and before bed, we sang Happy Birthday and had some cake at home. I am so, so proud of my friend, Mina, for decorating this amazing Regular Show cake! She works at Daisee’s Bakeshop in Las Pinas, and they make really nice custom cakes that taste good and are super affordable. I super duper, highly recommend them!
Time really does go by so quickly! Imagine, MrC and I have been parents for 8 years. What an adventure it has been so far, and for sure, it’s gonna keep getting even more exciting as the years go by.

Happy Birthday to your little boy..they really grow up so fast. That pizza joint looks like a fun place to have a meal π
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
Thank you! Yes, it was fun for us. My kid enjoyed building his pizza. Well, I did too, actually. Haha. Kid at heart.
Pinay R. says
Happy birthday! This is an interesting pizza with prosciutto! I love prosciutto but I have tried any pizza here with that! Where is Project Pie?
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
I love prosciutto on everything lol! This particular branch that we went to is in Alabang, but I know there’s also one along Shaw and another in Blue Bay Walk, Macapagal. Oh, and Eastwood also!
Joy Felizardo says
Eight is a great number (and lucky at that) according to many. For us moms, it’s just another year full of exploration, mistakes to be corrected, more teeth falling off and many unsightly and mostly amusing happenings in our kids’ life. Enjoy that year little one, late birthday greeting, hehe,
I was looking for kiddie binoculars and I landed on your blog, never have I tried Project Pie also.
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
Hi, Joy! Really, my blog turns up in the search result? Wow happy dance haha! Thanks for the birthday greeting for Little MrC!
Girlie Camungay says
Had nice time reading your blog. My friend and I can’t wait to go back to Project Pie. π
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
Thank you so much! I can’t wait to go back either. It’s addicting!
Girlie Camungay says
Belated Happy Birthday to your son Mrs. Cuyugan. I had a nice time reading this article of yours because I also went there in Project Pie last 2 weeks ago. We celebrated my best friend’s birthday there and I thought that our night will be a disaster one because there are too many customers and we can’t find seats. Fortunately, we enjoyed our turn in decorating our own pizza and we’re deciding to go back again next time.
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
Thank you so much. Project Pie here is also always full, but yes, it is lotsa fun building (and eating) your own pizza, so it’s worth the wait! π
Maria says
You had me at the cheeses and prosciutto! Happy Birthday to your lil MrC.
MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan says
