    [​IMG] :lol: I believe so! :lol:

    Actually, its at the top floor of a building in the business district called Makati in Metropolitan Manila, the capital of the Philippines.

    Its divided into two areas, a bigger cafeteria type area with trays and counters for all the building employees, not unlike the cafeterias in hospitals and schools, although a lot more chic. The interior really looks like a trendy restaurant and seats around 250 people. Here we serve "regular" dishes.

    The heart of the business however, is the Executive Lounge, where the top company executives (its an accounting/auditng/consultancy firm, affiliated with Andersen Consulting)entertain guests, have lunch meetings, meet with clients, cocktails and evening celebrations, etc. This part is divided into several "theme" rooms: Thai, Filipino, Iberian, Japanese, Chinese, etc.

    Here we serve anything that's asked, mostly to suit the tastes of visiting diplomats, consuls and overseas clients. We range from sushi to chinese food, from angus steaks to paella (house specialty: my business partner and godmother spent time in Portugal, Spain and Vienna in her younger days, as an aide to an ambasssador), from Peking duck to fresh mangoes (the Philippines and Australia have the best mangoes in the world. You would't believe how much we were charged for them in L.A> and Honolulu during a vacation I took), from Brockwurst and Hungarian sausages (which we get at a specialty shop) to pasta.

    Well, there ya go. :)

    Aaaaw man! You guys made me hungry! :) :D

    I think I'll open myself a box of fruit loops...:roll: :wave:

    [​IMG] It just struck me that I've never eaten fruit loops. I sit here with only a vague idea of what they taste like. I feel like such an abomination...

    I think I need a break form SP. The Chat is mindless (can be fun from time to time) The computer D&D boards are reapeating themselves (and why shouldn't they) and the Whatnots toppics are boring (IMHO). And there is not the same need for linkfinders these days.

    me thinks me retiring for a while. :wave:

    Everybody is retiring? Well as long as I am bored at work I will be at SP :)

    Nobleman, you can't just leave the boards for a while, you should at least update your Mojo-topic a few times a week. ;)
