STEAKS WITH MY WEEKEND
for a food update. its been awhile since i've had good steaks. believe me, they are so hard to find these days. the closest i ever get to a decent one is in burp! when i spend most of my time in roxas. so when we headed out of the cinema and was a bit late for al dente already, we got lucky with maki. freska, being right beside it was a bit noisy and crowded with the band and all. it was a friday night, after all. so we ordered the batangas steak which looked interesting. ordered the rib eye and it came with some sort of yellow rice (not curry though). it was so yummy! it was simply prepared with no gravy and was on top of a bed of salt from guimaras daw. baw kung sa balay lang ko nag kinamot gid ko. i recommend it very highly :)
the next day, bryan gets a text message from his friends to try crave steak. crave steak is in the smallville strip where the old flow used to be. not the crave burger place on the same line next to business hotel.
the herb steak was recommended by one of the owners, jr santos. different presentation, sliced thinly with just its own juices on the plate with some chunky cut veggies. i ordered the mashed potato which came at just the right quantity, much to my relief. :-D at P250, not a bad price. the second level is also dinning area but they had paintings from local artists up so its a good concept. nice ambience and homely in feel, which is a good thing 'coz you get to bring family and all. a funny contrast from what it used to be. so, its definitely worth dropping by and hope to try more of the rest of the menu.
(as usual, i look funny na naman! wasn't ready! pics from oscar nava's facebook)

(as usual, i look funny na naman! wasn't ready! pics from oscar nava's facebook)GLOBAL PEACE FESTIVAL
with its slogan "one family under God", it sounds harmless and with good intentions. but then again, we know that the worst things come in the most unlikely forms. its like aswang all over again, but this time, its such a direct shot at everything we believe in.
with a lot of artists going along for the ride (namely: pops fernandez, billy crawford, john pratts, kris lawrence, jeffrey hidalgo and hale), it should have been good for capiz tourism in a way. but here comes the question, which is more important, man or God?
the trouble is that the man behind this festival is hyun jin moon. 4th son of the founder of the moonies movement. for more information, the internet is full of it.
as soon as word got out what this festival was really about, a lot of Christians and Catholics alike backed out (most especially schools). after all, the man claims to be the Messiah, the Father, putting himself on the same level as Jesus, buddha and mohammed. hello!
so i hope and pray that the governor and the rest of the people involved can ask themselves, which is more important? you're political careers or the faith that you claim you have. if you don't have that strong of a conviction, go right ahead. but do not hold the ones who do with contempt. its times like these that give me the shivers.
so i hope that people will see...
ITS PERMANENT
finally moved into our new store today. still the same location but glad to see something new after so long. and i finally get to unpack my stuff in my new and permanent office. key word on the permanent. hay salamat! hehehe
