Planning to Retire Soon!

If you are planning to retire in the Philippines soon, I suggest you visit several excellent websites on pro's and cons of retiring in the Philippines. However if you want to retire in the provinces, where life is simple, standard of living cheaper, less traffic congestion and pollution, availability of fresh seafood and vegetables compared to the big cities, my island province is the place for you! If this is your first time in my site, welcome. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on the infringement of your copyrights.

The Newton's Restaurant- Kudos to Chef Agustin and His Kitchen Crew

Newton's Restaurant-The Heritage Downtown (THD), Walnut Creek, CA 

My recent lunch ( see photo above) of Bow Tie Pasta Salad, Lentil soup with sausage, watermelon and Coke was excellent. The Pasta Salad has cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, parmesan cheese and Italian Dressing.

One of the many factors of my decision to move here at THD last year was the food service at Newton's- Our THD restaurant. https://theheritagedowntown.com/fine-dining/

I have enjoyed numerous normal and weekly dishes, and also several special dishes celebrating special occasions.  Newtons have provided delicious and authentic dinners for Valentine,  Easter, July 4th, October Filipino-American History month, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve. Newton's is very creative in their Salads and Soups Presentations as well as Desserts. The following are some special dishes on special occasions served here at Newton's.  

In Dinner the menu of January 22-27, 2024 is listed in one of the vegetarian dishes, one of my favorite Mexican dishes- chili relleno casserole. Thank you Agustin for honoring my request. Agustin is our Chef here at Newton's Restaurant.  

It was delicious and a little bit spicy, but I love it. So as a warning if you do not like spicy food, the chili relleno casserole is not for you. However, if you have an adventurous palate and like Mexican dishes try it this week. 

Here are some photos of Newton's and Senior Residents enjoying Dinner.

Meanwhile, I talked to Agustin the other day, our Chef about Sinigang.💚 He said his wife  (a Filipina-American) will cook it and he will bring a bowl for me. Thank You, Agustin! Keep up with Good work and my thanks to all the Kitchen Crew.  Meanwhile, here's a website that describes Sinigang in the top 100 Best Soup in the World by Taste Atlas.
