It was a typical Saturday night.The "barkada" after hearing the 6pm vigil mass at St. Francis Church in the city, decided to eat out ("sa walang kamatayang NAM LOONG").We were with our new found friend ALOIS and our visiting friend, ROY. We then decided to go to "CENTRO" which is a "Filo-Karaoke Cafe" in Footscray. There is an entrance fee of AU$10, but the $5 of which is consumable. They do serve filipino food varieties such as "lechon kawali", "crispy pata", "chicharong bituka", "halo-halo", etc. My Ninang Jot and Ninong Buddy also went there. The set-up was sort of the typical "over-28's" feel. The sound system and lights were truly high tech and fully equipped with "sound-proof" gadgets. Of course, almost 90% of the crowd were filos. It was a good feeling coz everyone's so game to go to the stage to either "sing"or "dance". Definitely no pretentions. It doesn't matter if you're not in tune, someone will back you up! How's that!Of course, ROY had a few reps but I only had ONE (the more senti one). Here's a preview of it.
It was only me and Roy who had the guts to go in front and sing, while Aileen & Robert only stood in between sets and dance.
I saw "Mutya" which is a classmate of mine @ VUT during my first year of Nursing. She is looking stunning as ever. We also saw "Jhong" which seems to be "under a spell" and couldn't control himself.
We were expecting Ninong Bob as well, but he was, I guess, got hooked with the pokie machines at Crown...hahaha!
Apart from the spluge of filo foods (2 halo-halos, lechon kawali, crispy pata, chicharong bituka and 2 bottles of smirnoff double black), we did have a good time.
