Here we are having early dinner with Tatay, Ninang and Ate Isabel

There is a nice quote in my soup!

Here I am with Nanay at the terrace. The bistro was fully booked for the night and we just asked if we can look around and take pictures. We decided to buy some cake to go, then the supervisor talked to us. Since it is still early he offered us that we can have dinner right then and there since reservations start at 7 pm. He offered us this table which was reserved for the mayor himself. Wow, so nice! We had a great dinner indeed what a way to start the year!

A table with a view :)

Here we are the yaya sisterhood! mother and daugther tandems.

I will post the food that was served to us in the coming post:)
