We enjoy Ian Rosales Casocot’s columns, and we learn some new things about our eateries in Dumaguete.
For instance, we didn’t know Cafe Antonio is a restaurant already. So we may pay it a visit again. (We stopped going because their offerings were limited, not to mention our having to negotiate those steep stairs — you know, us “aging belles”).
May I suggest that your columnist Ian consider doing something like “A day in the life of_____” (a hands-on restaurant owner whom you could follow from start of day to end, recording routines and problems that come up, people/customers he/she deals with or meets, etc.)
It’ll give us an idea of what goes on behind the scenes, and make us more appreciative of a restaurateur’s life, which, I understand, is a constant challenge.
Oh, by the way, chuck those food photos. If they’re in color, they’d be great. In black and white, they don’t do anything but take up valuable space. They look like turds and stuff that come out the neither orifice rather than what should be taken in by the upper one.
More power!
