I love board games
and I could be very
competitive too. That’s why I spent 9 hours in Ludo
last year. But since I got busier with work, I wasn’t able to visit that puzzle
heaven anymore. There are actually a lot of board game places now like Dyce N Dyne which I have yet to visit
too. One night, C posted something that made the gamer in me so excited.
Puzzle Board Game Lounge now has a Fort
Strip branch! Woohoo!
Since it’s quite near work, we
decided to head there on the last day of work before the long weekend. And
because we want to make sure that we have a table, C reserved one for a party
of 8.
But when we arrived, 5 minutes
before our reservation, there was no table available! The server and (I guess)
the owner said that there were a few walk-ins and they accommodated them. It
made me upset. What’s the point of reserving then? But what made matters worse
was there was another party of three who walked in and they were given a table
and seats before us (as soon as a table was cleared)! I told C that if I was
not with them, I would have walked out already but since everyone was eager to
play games and enjoy the night, we stayed.
After 20 or 30 minutes of standing in
the middle of a very narrow walkway in front of the counter where everyone who
try to cross to the other side will bump you, we finally managed to get a table
for 5 pax. Remember that we needed a table for 8? They claimed that the table
we had was good for 8. Yes, it is possible if the other three were floating.
(Just thinking about it annoys me!)
Anyway, we just sat down and ordered.
I decided to get Fried
Chicken and Cheese Pasta
(PHP250) and a bowl of Mushroom
Soup (PHP160). While waiting, I snacked on a pack of Sky Flakes.
Our food arrived as we were playing
Dirty Minds, a game that will test how clean or dirty you think.
