New restaurant

New Indian restaurant
The Lunar New Year is just 2 days away. There's no excitement or festivities as we're a very small minority. Mind you "we" means koreans, chinese, vietnamese, indonesians, filipino chinese who all celebrate the Lunar Spring feast. Maybe we'll meet and celebrate ... but our work schedules are so different we cannot find a common time together. Anyway everything is so expensive nowadays so going to a restaurant to eat is out of the question. But none of us can cook either. So we might just meet to greet each other and maybe drink some coca cola to celebrate!

Talking about restaurants, there's a new Indian restaurant where a sandwich franchise used to be. The cooks are Indians but I think they're hindus. The menu is vegetarian so it's easy to keep kosher. But the prices on the menu show the dishes to be expensive ... like the chinese restaurants.

Don't know what happened today but lots of ambulances and police cars with loud sirens rushing up and down the main street outside the Old City. There's nothing in the news to to explain this.

I'm still not feeling well. Chest pains ... which the cardiologists said is technically angina (so I should be using my nitroglycerin medicine) ... and difficulty in walking slopes and stairs. It's miserable and I really wish I could get better. It's not a good way to celebrate the New Year.
