Bugatti Veyron Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Pag maalala mo pa itong jingle at yung bangko na ito, matanda ka na talaga! Comtrust bank jingle (1973)Title: We Share The Same HorizonsPerformed by: Tillie MorenoWords & Music: Jose Mari Chan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brASWgoG8Lc Comtrust (Commercial Bank and Trust Company) was established in 1954 and was merged with BPI in 1980. http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4135/4944970522_3959a2bee9_z.jpgThe Comtrust building is on the right (foreground) - corner of Ayala Ave. and Salcedo St. - the present site of Convergys. Who among the "Young Once" can possibly forget these jingles? The last time they aired was also probalby the last time I heard this. Until today. Just goes to show that our brains have a very large capacity for random access. Imagine all those memories buried deeply in our sub-conscious and when it is triggered by video clips like these, the memory which has been locked up in the sub-conscious for decades all of a sudded are brought to the surface. It's truly amazing how the human brain works. Quote Link to comment

oscartamaguchiblackface Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) With the passing of typhoon Yolanda yesterday, I am reminded of typhoon Yoling, another very powerful typhoon which hit Metro Manila directly on November 19, 1970, almost 43 years to the day Yolanda hit the Visayas islands.

muttley Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Kakaunti pa lang ang mga Japanese restaurants during the 70s. The ones frequented by my family were Kimpura in Makati and Tempura Misono in the old Hyatt Regency hotel in Pasay. Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately I do not remember the name of this restaurant. As I recall it was located near the US embassy. I don't suppose you've been there or recall its name. Quote Link to comment

Jay P. Mercado Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Furo Sato was located along Guadalupe near EDSA back then. Kamameshi House was along Aurora Boulevard near St. Paul, QC. Quote Link to comment
maxiev Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) Furo Sato was located along Guadalupe near EDSA back then. Kamameshi House was along Aurora Boulevard near St. Paul, QC.There is a Kamameshi House along Zobel Roxas close to the Makati/Manila border. Ate there about 6 months ago and the food's still good. Accordoing to the Kamameshi website, there's another one located on Eliptical Road, East Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City. Edited November 25, 2013 by maxiev Quote Link to comment
muttley Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) Furo Sato was located along Guadalupe near EDSA back then. Kamameshi House was along Aurora Boulevard near St. Paul, QC. The Furosato at EDSA-Guadalupe opened sometime late-80s/early-90s and closed down by late-90s. The original branch of Furosato still stands at Roxas Blvd. beside Trader's Hotel, across CCP. My recollection would be that Furosato first opened sometime in the 1980s, therefore I think Furosato is irrelevant to this thread - unless someone has a better information.

muttley Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) The correct spelling pala is Furusato and it began 1976. Kamameshi House - the original branch is the one at Zobel-Roxas St., Makati. This one began 1981. Edited November 26, 2013 by muttley Quote Link to comment
maxiev Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) Anybody recall Steak Express in Makati which was at the far end of Automat, near Poulex Department Store. How about The Shack, another steak restaurant located on a small hill on the north bound lane of EDSA near Buendia? These were my two favorite steak restaurants back in the 1970s.
