Hot Pot w/ Attorney Oskee

Oscar [aka Racso, Oskee, etc etc] the one and only person I know who went to Harvard Law as a scholar and delivered the graduation speech for his class [he's been a genius since we were all small] was passing through Manila [he'll be based in SG so hit him up if you're based/going there].

GK hosted Oscar's one night only dinner at his resto Zhu Chinese Cuisine [thanks GK]. Also present were: JB Lim [haven't seen this guy in a long time as well], Ronald Chong, Caloy and Erica, Cram [who bought dinner for everyone! Thanks Marc :D], Jaoser [who was entertaining guests but chatted with us for a bit nonetheless], Flu and his gf, and of course we were graced by the lovely Bel and cute Greggy [o yan GK di ko na tinawag na Gory]. All in all a very relaxed and fun dinner.

Eating imported beef and lobster balls plus story swapping became the main form of entertainment ranging from elementary antics to highschool. We were laughing till we went out of the resto. Hopefully next time more peeps would come so it'll be even more fun.

Shameless plug: Go to Zhu eat hot pot, don't forget to order the lobster balls, dumplings, and leave room for the fresh taho! Super sarap!
