Prettier than Ever

I thought we would eat some place cheaper but last Sunday, on our way to check up on the work in Calatagan, we ended up having lunch in an old favorite, Sonya's Garden and it's still as pretty as ever, even prettier.  There's an additional hall which I don't remember was there more than two years ago.  The wonderful thing is that they welcomed us including our dog.  And the place was built pet-friendly with hardy outdoorsy floors that could take a beating.   Our son ran up and down the aisles with the dog and made friends with other kids who were attracted to his puppy, making him the popular kid who happily shared ownership and playtime.  

What I love about the construction of this structure is that it's so unpretentious.  It uses simple materials in an honest, simple way and the love affair with plants and great fresh food is the overriding factor.
