Right place, wrong time

D mentioned that he tried this Filipino ran BBQ place in San Bruno with good food and a good price, so he bought me to it one evening for dinner. On the outside, the colors were kind of funky. What kind of restaurant would paint their exterior orange and green? Yuck! Anyway, it looked like the parking lot was full or that the place was packed, so D asked me to go inside to reserve a seat while he looked for parking.

As I walked into the restaurant (I should've known better), I noticed that all the faces were brown. Hmm, oh well, it is a Filipino restaurant, so I didn't think anything of it. As I opened the door, EVERY SINGLE FACE TURNED TO STARE AT ME! Still, not thinking anything of it, I walked in and asked if they were open. The owner told me they were having a rededication, but said they'll serve us anyway. He guided us to the corner where we would not be a part of the party. I was about to walk out, but at that same instant, D also walked in, so I figure it was a little too late.

When they brought out our dinner, they also asked if they could take a picture of us to put on their website. We've been checking randomly every so often, but no such website really existed. One night, when I was extremely bored at home, I decided to Yelp IHOB: International House of Barbeque (yes, tacky name too) and look what I came upon: http://ihobbykadoks.com/photo_gallery . Scroll to the very bottom, and voila! Who do you see? For a while, we were wondering if they were just bluffing, but I guess the owner's a man of his word. (Good for you Mr. Owner!). Look at those two Chinese people who weren't really supposed to be there, at least we added diversity to the restaurant. Oh yeah, the food's pretty good too.
