Tortang Talong, Arroz Caldo & Renee Olstead

Tortang Talong & Arroz Caldo

It's been a very long time since I've had tortang talong (pan-fried eggplant dipped in egg).  Ordered this dish at Pusong Pinoy, a new Filipino restaurant near our apartment.  Also ordered arroz caldo, which had curiously yellow rice (turmeric?).

We enjoyed our meal as we listened to customers taking turns singing karaoke.  At one point, the track of "Through the Fire" by Chaka Khan came up.  Nobody dared take on that classic.

We've resolved to take pictures of the people in restaurants - waiters, cashiers, cooks, etc.  Food pics get boring after a while.

The 2nd best version of that song, IMHO, is Renee Olstead's.
