Van Gogh is Bipolar

After a sumptuous dinner at Van Gogh the unique house rules still lingering inside my mind. Please allow me to return back the time for one of my most unforgettable dinner .
Welcome to Van Gogh =)
It was a sudden decision, again me and my food buddy Yasoy agreed to meet up at Maginhawa.(Where else?)
Its was an extra special evening, TL Ryan was joining us. =)

As we entered 154 Maginhawa, I saw the tiny courtyard and whiff the scent of the aroma theraphy candle.We're here.Finally.

Uhm let me first  recap the rules inside Van Gogh is Bipolar's fortress.

  • no slippers or shoes inside 
  • read the instructions
  • no servers just ring the bell if you need anything ( the bell plays a major role)
  • write your order in the piece of paper then ring the  bell
  • drop your payments in the red box (honesty system)

A melancholic room that radiance was  coming from a small candle tucked inside a teapot.So romantic! As the 3 of us know the rules, we wrote our order in the 1/4 sheet of paper provided and rang the bell.While waiting for our food I silently admired the uniqueness of the place.

The voice calling my name caught my attention, the soup and drinks were  ready. It was quick or I just didn't notice the time because I was attentively checking unparalleled things inside the house.Even the soup was  unique. I cant explain the taste it was a twist of banana and some strange spices mixed together. The fresh strawberry and mint leaves floating on top of my drinks was so inviting. I sipped and suddenly felt the freshness and soothing feeling to wipe my thirst away. Cucumber and melon bits added an extra flavor to this heavenly drink.I highly recommended!

The manager approached us and offer us tea. Yasoy, went to the tea section and read the instruction on how to make your own tea posted on the wall. Since it was her day she choose banana and mint.
It was sudden I hear my name again on the tiny kitchen window, at last it's suppertime! Honestly I was surprised. My plate was so colorful. By the way I ordered lamb chop with mango salad and brown rice. The meat was tender i so loved it, the salad lying on top of the cabbage leaves and the brown rice. I never ate this healthier before.
