Going back to Jade Vine and to happy memories of 51 years
Jun Alvendia, son of Esperanza Pahati Alvendia, Maripaz Godinez and I were having lunch at the Jade Vine Restaurant on UN Avenue, and we came to reminiscing the happy times when in the ’60s, Jade Vine played host to impersonations of Broadway shows. Members of Manila’s high society like Chona Kasten, Tingting Cojuangco and Elvira Manahan had the time of their lives.
