I picked up Monique from her party at the Buddha Bar, and feeling the twinkletoe effect, she suggested we move on to another location. The night was young and we decided to see what was still open at the Glorietta area. Fortunately, the Hard Rock Cafe beckoned, and we found ourselves munching on their Legendary Burger (P800) within 20 minutes from the time we walked in. Monique had tried this at their Singapore branch, and she said that this was a centerpiece attraction (yes, it came with a giant 10 oz patty). I thought it was a bit on the bland side and could use a bit more salt and pepper, but overall it was good.
The band was lively, and played a wide variety of music, as I expected. Rock and roll hits from the fifties, seventies, and through the nineties were played (of course with the obligatory disco round). The band even had a popular star from GMA7 as a guest singer. It was also good that several current hits were played, so that Monique's interest wouldn't wane. We had some cocktails (mojito and Long Island iced tea), and I was surprised with her innate tolerance for liquor, just like her mother. I do miss the club scene and this was just perfect for father and daughter bonding!
