We were treated to a sumptuous lunch at the historic ____ in Zurich last April. After we left Zurich, I was hoping to see our hosts again in the near future so we could return their hospitality. I thought it would take another year before they visited Manila again but to my surprise, one of our hosts, Daniel, was traveling to Manila bringing along one of the scions of the Keller Group, George.
I invited them for lunch and it was a good thing that their flight to Bangkok was at 8 pm so there’s plenty of time to spare however Daniel requested that we finish our lunch by 2 pm. Two hours was good enough.
The closest fine dining restaurant to our office is Terry’s Bistro. I chose it for the proximity to our office, and for its excellent dishes and service. I reserved a table for 6.
Oyen did the ordering and oh boy, she probably thought there were 8 of us.
She ordered two kinds of paella.
Daniel and George ordered the same thing, Lamb Shank. Huge serving.
I didnt get a bite of the ribeye steak because my stomach was about to burst.
George, Maricar, Yen, oh my buhay, Daniel.
Daniel and I split this small serving of ice cream. All of us shared an order of rectangle-shaped churros con chocolate.
Our meal came up to P2,400 per person, very cheap compared to the meal prices in Zurich.
