starting this year (as in january 1!) until two days ago, my doggie wasn't eating anything. she refused to eat anything, not even her all-time favorite treat, dentastix could coax her into eating something. i gave her sugar water, and she drank it but she wasn't able to finish all of it. before the new year festivities, she was already coughing. i just thought there was something stuck inside her throat, but i guess not. wiz told me she was still coughing after a few days and she has stopped eating. when i got home, she raised her head up and wagged her tail at me. she was also able to walk up to me to welcome me home, but i could see that she was not feeling well. both her eyes were a bit swollen-looking but when i checked them both eyes were okay. nothing was swollen and it didn't have any wounds anywhere around the eye area. so, i took a tablet of vitamin c and i had to force it inside her mouth just so she could drink it. afterwards, i advised my dad to keep giving her 1 tablet of vitamin c everyday and to keep giving her sugar water so she won't get dehydrated. i think it works better than mondex (it's hydrate solution for dogs and other pets and it's mostly used for cases like these), which works the same way as gatorade does for a person. i kept calling my dad to ask updates about chubi, whether she ate anything or if she was still coughing. luckily, when i called last monday to check on her, my dad told me that she was finally able to finish one hotdog for breakfast and was able to eat about two tablespoons of food for lunch. i know it wasn't much but at least she was finally able to eat something! yay! then, later that evening, i was talking with wiz on the phone and he told me that chubi also ate all the icing on the cake peejay and i brought home. wiz said chubi ate all the icing but did not touch the cake at all. yay! i was so happy for my chubi!! i didn't have to bring her to the vet. i wasn't able to because his clinic is closed on sundays. until now she is still eating, just a few tablespoons every meal, which is fine with me. at least she gets to eat something. yay!
their house specialty..seafood jambalaya..it's their version of our paella. you have your between spicy jambalaya or the regular one. since peejay's mom didn't spicy, we chose the regular jambalaya, which has a spicy kick. good thing we didn't choose the spicy jambalaya because we wouldn't be able to finish it. the serving is good for four.
their fish and chips. it had a mustard and something else dip, which tasted great with the fish and the fries had a thin coating of something and it tasted great with the mustard dip. i think the dip had onion bits in it, which complemented the tangy flavor of the mustard.
we also ordered crab meat. i forgot the exact name of this dish but it was delicious. it also came with the same dip that came with the fish and chips. i think it was cooked the same way like a regular torta, only difference is that it was i think cooked with the crab shell.
