Maria Clara, The silver pattern is Tiffany’s “Bamboo”, designed by Van Truex, Tiffany’s head designer in the 60′s. First produced in ’68 it has been copied extensively. It was my wedding silver and I still love the pattern.

Lee, you bet…i bought Talaba (Oysters) near CENECO–yummy… when you get there a bit early, you really get the big ones and i think its on daily basis ha…aside from Oysters that were just submerged in boiling water..I did Baked Oysters w/ cheese and garlic and Deep Fried Oysters with Mango Salsa…I really wish that one day I can come across Oyster Plates..So Sosyal!

I agree with Lee & Zena. Iloilo &/or Panay oysters are HUGE! When in Iloilo, we buy oysters from a suki in Oton who also provides talaba for some big restaus in Manila. They are truly delicious. You can buy them freshly cooked and already shucked. Namit gid!
