Welcome Home
Candy, Sherwin, and I are loyal patrons of Café Antonio but we just had to try out the newly opened Boston Café branch which stands on the erstwhile site of Leandro’s Bar. Interestingly, the first thing I noticed upon setting foot on the café wasn’t the smell of the coffee, the people, nor the furniture — I first noticed the tiles. The inside of the cafe had two types of floor tiles and I’m pretty sure they were Mariwasa’s Hacienda Ochre and Hacienda Red. Candy calls me an addict already because all I’ve done the past month is examine tiles every place we go, more often than not I would try to identify their maker and style. And that’s pretty valid, I guess, because over the past weeks my weekends were spent in various home depots where my mum, dad, and I have been shopping for tiles and home fixtures. That’s right, we’re building our house!
