FIRST OF ALL, allow me to congratulate the Filipino American Symphony Orchestra for the smashing success of their concert last Sunday at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills. High praise goes to Asian Journal, the bold mover of this very complex undertaking.

I stood in applause with the rest of the Fil-Am community who watched the earth-shaking performances.

Lito Cruz and Andy Tecson are to be commended for their part in the production’s success.

Kapuri-puri ang ginawa ng production team na ito. They opened our eyes, hearts and mind to the beauty of the symphony.

I was particularly moved by the Filipino love songs that I have not heard in a long, long time.

Napakahusay din ng mga performers--Joey Albert, Stephanie Reese and Pete Avendaño

Once again, kudos to FASO. Bravissimo! Mabuhay kayo.

Max’s Puente Hills

Customers get the VIP treatment at Max’s Puente HillsAs a salute to the dynamic Pinoy palate, I’m continuing my review of Filipino-owned restaurants that deserve the spotlight for the great value they offer.

My friend and colleague Joey Buscay and I enjoyed a sumptuous meal at the new Max’s branch in Puente Hills located inside the Puente Hills Mall on 1600 Azusa Road, Suite 166 City of Industry, CA 91748.

I’ve been to all the Max’s restaurants here in the Southland but this new one in Puente Hills truly stands out. They offer a very attractive and affordable lunch menu, served at your leisure while you are seated at their very clean dining area.

Since I’m a pescetarian (a vegetarian who eats fish), I basked in their fresh seafood offering: Boneless Bangus sa Miso. With one sip of the broth, I was transported back to the good ol’ times back home. Pilipinong-Pilipino talaga ang timpla.

To complete the deal, I paired my bangus with asparagus and tofu. It was simply sensational!
