2 hours at Brazil
In Saigon, one of our favorite restaurants is “Brazil.” After the 10am Mass at St. John Bosco Parish, Chief and I proceeded to Bonifacio High Street to meet up with Rene Bernal for lunch at “Brazil.”
It was our anniversary weekend and we wanted to treat a friend who is dear to us. Rene Bernal had been my friend since I studied at UST Graduate School. That friendship started in June 1982.
Together with his friend, Etoy, he visited us in Saigon last 2003 and stayed at our first Greenhome at 25 Tran Nhat Duat Street, District 1.
Today, we look back to memories of more than 25 years while enjoying good food at “Brazil.” Unfortunately, they didn’t allow me to take pictures of the buffet table. Sorry. But for 670 pesos for "all you can eat" buffet. It was worth it. The waiter first served corn soup. Medyo konti lang. Just around ten spoonsful of soup. Then, I started with potato salad before all the grilled items started to fill my plate.
It was nice and easy two hours of kuwentuhan, from our trips to Olongapo to Puerto Galera, together with our barkaka, Egay Guerrero, Rose Dumpit, and Nady Nacario. Plus our first-ever overseas trip to HK in 1988. That would be a whole separate blog.
