Garden Café/ Carlos Pueblo

Garden Café/ Carlos Pueblo

Garden is located on Deck 12 backward of the ship of this cruise line. It is

my restaurant of the cruise vacation that I can enjoy the free style cruise,

i.e. keep my hat to cover my bald head and shades to cover up my wrinkle

eyes, etc. The ship sends its majority of staff up to manage this cafeteria to

serve most of the passengers and this is why I meet most of my adopted

darling daughters. At the entrance, I can see the washee washee for the hand

sanitation, the hostess at least three of them, waiters and waitresses to remove

and clean the tables, behind the food counters chefs and behind the scene junior

chefs in and out of the huge kitchen, two head chefs circling around, and countless

restaurant striped uniform managers even including the captain. They all want to

make sure the smoothly operation of this restaurant. Usually I come to visit the café

right after boarding the ship to have lunch to save money for a meal outside.

I ran into Karla Esteff, Amy’s favorite daughter from Peru and a roommate of Myra

of Philippine on vacation. She was surprised to see me again in just one and half

month. I congratulated her for her promotion to be a hostess at la Cucina and on duty

at the café. I delivered Amy’s German chocolate present to her immediately when the

luggage arrived to my stateroom. There are five Peruvian daughters now, Maria will

be with Pearl in New Orleans and Alaska later. When I made up a sentence in Spanish,

Si, conozco Keiko Fujimori, por que? Su padre Alberto es mi amigo. I wrote about it on

my blog, Alicia, Kara, and Maria were all smile and silent yet only Leezet, a hostess on

Jasmine Restaurant, smiled and poked a question asking me where did I meet Alberto

Fujimori, in his private garden jail? We had had a very interesting conversation about

Peruvian national political affairs. Jasmine is also my favorite snack restaurant for its

spicy seafood udon, a Japanese style soup noodle.

My first daughter, Cristina Sales the injured one on leave, used to be the manager of this

Restaurant and the current manager, Richie of Mauritius, was under her back then. This

fine Asian Indian gentleman even delivered my noodle bowl to me himself if the waitress

was tied up. I almost adopted all the waitresses here and had had a founded memory.

Catherine always reminds her colleagues that I have adopted her right on the first sight

which means that she is very beautiful and I cannot let her go. One day when she asked

me where did I go next and I replied to the casino. She stepped down her foot with a

disgust expression for gambling. I explained to her to visit my others daughters only.

There is another daughter, Delora Sale, who taught me Tagalog to reinforce my two

lessons on board, Sun and Jade. I now can do a broken Tagalog, for instance:

Mabuhay, magandang umaga, Ako si Carlos Pueblo de Formosa, un neutralized Filipino,

comesta ga? Ang ganda ganda mo talaga. Mahal na Mahal kita sobra, Paalam. The

instructor said that was not a broken at all and people understood well.
