Traffic in BGC

[JohnM]

*JohnM, pag naalala ko Fat Willy's, naalala ko Mule. Wala na ko nakikita nyan ngayon.

Mule!!! Parang wala na nga yon. Di ko na nga masyado maalala ang lasa. Sa Peps lang kami umiinom non after college. Di namin kaya ang dollars sa Fort kahit na may libreng "show"

I remember sleeping in one of the officers' houses around where Toyota BGC is now. One of my friends is an army brat and dun kami sa kanila tumuloy after gimik iwas curfew sa dorm

Edit plus OT: Nasa online menu pa sya ng Heckle and Jeckle. 145 ang bote.

Fat Willy's ba kanyo?

Phase2 iyan, after Le Souffle.... :naughty2:

I think you're of the younger generation (no pun intended). I just turned 42 a couple of weekends ago.

Yeah we hung out at Fat Willy's when we were in college. But I'm sure you were able to hook up with college girls back then knowing your history

Mule parang more for girls talaga matamis kasi. Naala ko pa P80 ata yan sa Fat Willy's because that's all that I would order. I didn't like beer back then. You hung out at Pep's Pasay road? Isn't it the same price more or less with Fat Willy's?

CVT big time ka ha! Dinner at le Souffle in the 90s would give you +100 pogi points.

We were there during happy hours so IIRC 60 petot lang ang beers. Sulit ang Red Horse dahil 500 ml Our gimik leader also plays in a band so usually nasa one of the tables kami malapit sa stage because he knows some of the performers. Good clean fun lang. Mixed group (all flavors)

OT:

Hahaha. College girls are complicated/risky! But that depends on the situation.

Sa tabi kami madalas, sa cable car. Talaga bang good clean fun lang? Kidding.

Sorry guys ah. ginagawa ko kasing daanan ung theFort papuntang C5. pero sa likod ng SnR daan ko ung sa may Lexus tas kanan sa dulo palabas ng C5 sa may Market! Market!.

I pass here too. Problem is when you're heading back to EDSA or Makati, traffic pa rin aabutin mo pag rush hour once you get back on the main road.

*JohnM, lalo na nung panahon ng Fat Willy's, lahat ng parking libre at walang traffic lights :P

HS palang ako nung panahon ng Fat Willys. :D

The Fort also used to be a favorite meet up place for car clubs before and i recall the PTCC held one street circuit race there as well. Parang Ortigas Center back in the 70s and 80s.

Even the parking building near beside Boni High Street pila rin?

Kaka-park ko lang ngayon sa Parkade 1. Late kasi may event sa school and sigurado puno na sa usual parking ko.

Puno na first level including most of the ramp. Second level dami pang bakante naka-park pa ako sa parallel parking slot.

College lang naman ako nung Fat Willy's :P I also remember Ortigas Centre in the 80s! Tektite, San Miguel and HSBC pa lang ata big structures back then. Even until the early 2000s maaliwalas pa sa Ortigas. But now it's super traffic na rin, Before I had no problems meeting up with friends in the Ortigas Area and I frequent Metro Walk din just to buy DVDs (free parking kasi) Pero ngayon, pag hindi Makati or Fort ang meet up, hindi na lang ako sumasama :P

Yung parking sa high street sa may Santi's, I was surprised na at 11 am PILA!

Parang mas maganda nga sa parkade kasi covered. May open parking pala across Honda Fort. Parang hindi naman mabilis mapuno, kaya lang ang layo!

I find that hard to believe primo!

MBCP used to have EB's at the Fort, hindi na ngayon ... magulo na eh.

Honest! Bagong bukas lang siya nung HS ako... I don't know anong level ko (HS or college) na nung nauso yung mga wet shirt stuff dun. Hehehehe... Kahit nga sa Hard Rock Cafe (syempre after eating at TGI Fridays), ayaw ako bigyan ng beer kaya hanggang Cali Shandy lang ako nun. :D

CVT - Dinner at le Souffle in the 90s .

Sis- malimit sabit lang kami, dahil ang mga big bosses namin sa US, iyan ang paboritong restaurant. Favorite na order na appetizer, foie gras. Favorite ng mga chic naming kasama,- sea bass o tiger prawn.... Kami naman lamb chop or rack of lamb, o steak... The drinks at the bar, before we proceed to the table, were always memorable... :naughty2:

I should admit na marami akong nakitang mga big time nga riyan....

Sa parking lot ng Le Souffle, habang kasama ko ang boss kong puti,- muntik na kaming ma-pick up ng 2 babaeng niyayakag kaming sumakay ng kotse nila.... Kahit sabihin kong kasama ko ang wifey ko sa restaurant,- namimilit pa rin sila....

I miss Le Souffle.... After it was gone, we were frequenting the French Corner in WestGate. The menu was strikingly similar to that of Le Souffle,- even the fonts used... And then, it closed shop.... Nuvo in Greenbelt is an option, but I should admit that it is far off from the Le Souffle dining experience...

Yeah. What I like most about le Souffle is their great staff. If you miss the le Souffle dining experience, you can always go to Old Manila. IMO it's the best restaurant in Metro Manila.
