Cloverfield is Godzilla meets The Blair Witch Project. Essentially Godzilla’s attack on New York from the perspective of a group of friends or more accurately from the perspective of their old-model home video camera that severely lacks a shake-reduction/motion-stabilizer feature. Could have been an interesting story but the first-person perspective approach was dizzying and I don’t mean in a good way. Half of the time my eyes were closed trying to recover my sense. I should have listened to Eeya’s recommendation not to watch it. So maybe listen to mine: Don’t watch it if you are motion sickness prone!

Tried Rufo’s early this morning (like 2AM early). Actually I’ve tried it almost exactly a week ago at Makati. That time, I ordered (what else?) tapsilog, their signature dish. Unusually, the tapa comes with sauce. In fact there’s more sauce than meat. They claim that the sauce alone is already viand. Frankly, I didn’t expect tapa to come with sauce since I’m used more to Rodic’s and Tapa King’s tapa which are more traditional. But I have to admit that it does taste nice. I like Rodic’s tapa better though. Anyway, this morning, I ordered embutido then switched to liempo because both Alex and Aby ordered it (shades of gluttony and envy in one sitting, beat that!) . But no regrets since it’s one of the best liempo I’ve had. I definitely want to try the other items on their menu.
