UPDATE: Barn Cafe

With a P3 meeting long overdue (Sure, we were just complete at BamBenny but with a friendship like this, once a month doesn’t really cover it. Used to be, it was an everyday meeting with texting as if we didn’t meet at all after our dinner/standing around in front of Chow King “waiting” for a taxi =b); Beth, Karla and I made up for lost time by spending the whole day together.

Let’s do the Tim “the Toolman” Taylor grunt!) on what used to be open sides where diners could get wet in rainy weather.  The wall inside is prettier also. (Wah, reminds me of Batanes. Oh to return to where the hills are alive and rolling =D).  Take a look at BEFORE.
