Manila eatery

a little shopping mall in serra monte had a Filipino fast food restaurant, so me and L stopped in for “puto” and mango drink. first time for me! I was most impressed with the vats of whole fried fish and boiled whole fish. the guy digs in with a spoon and fishes out a cooked fish.

and very surprisingly the burrito I have is great. last thing I expected in Houston… fresh ingredients, good tomatillo salsa. thank You Laverne!

I do find it funny

where I'm reading from

it really is my nearly ideal spot to read. warm, comfortable, fresh air, a convenient table, nice view. these are the oft overlooked high points. the things that ten years down the road i’ll have a very vivid visual memory of.
