My family’s huan-á-pô: Filipino, Filipino-Chinese, and the lines drawn between

When you condense an entire people – thoughts and hopes and dreams and all – into syllables, you reduce them into what they are not

In this casual hole in the wall, you can enjoy your favorite Chinese treats, with poems written in Mandarin, translated in #Filipino, by "#Chinoys", #Filipinos of Chinese descent in the #Philippines.

This particular book : 'Mga tula sa libong pulo" (Poems from the thousand islands) is one of several you can read.

The Philippines has over 7,100 islands.

The parking sucked (for @bikes and motor vehicles) but the good food will make up for it.
