wife matters ...1

Wives are expected to be .... wives !

And what do wives do ?
Of course I dont have to tell coz I think that even non-wives who read this blog would know.

Aside from the never-ending tasks at home , some of us have secular jobs too and yet even if we are tired from that we can't make it an excuse for not preparing food for our dear , lord ...of the house.

That is just the way it is...cheers for all the housewives!!

But,
this post isn't about my being a great wife at all...no ma'dear I ain't nothin' like that !

I am a vocal person, if I'm tired or yet....tinatamad I tell my hubby.
When he calls just before leaving the office....yes sisters he does...always,
I hint to him that I 'M tired and I dont wanna cook.

If he is not too tired, he volunteers to cook our dinner...oh yes, dear hubby is a good cook, better than me sometimes !
( he worked part-time at a restaurant during his college days)

Minsan, tinatamaan ako ng hiya if he said he's cooking....so pinipilit ko magluto.

but......
and this is my favorite part ...

is when he asks...

" ok, why don't we eat out tonight ?? "

Siempre , tuwang -tuwa naman me !!

*******************************************************

A few nights back was one of those nights!!
We were also both in the mood for something different, went driving looking for a place we haven't been to yet . Near the station we saw this place that says's it specializes on
" hormones" .. thats what japanese call the innards...or laman-loob.
Kung baga sa tin...isaw.

So we went in and what we saw surprised us ...delighted us.
Outside was just an ordinary looking resto but step inside and...

'twas like being transported back to post war era...
the place was designed as if your were not actually inside a building but an outside bistro .








......the sign say's

" life's back road ."


The posters hung everywhere where all from the 50's and 60's , all so

old yet somewhat homely ,too !







We were seated on an old train converted into a dining room for couples ....
and here was my view....






....parang may sari-sari store pa on the stations platform

kuno.... but actually thats the kitchen .

And so what did we have....

ano pa kundi ...

barbecued innards ...

laman-loob + grilled vegetables !!



The food was okay... the price reasonable ...the atmosphere , ambience the feel of the place was hmmm..., in japanese we would say natsukashii,nostalgic ! all picture'S taken by my mobile phone
