“Omigosh, Wow!”
This was the inevitable reaction of guests to Dr. Rudy Patiño’s newly renovated house in Silay, during his birthday celebration recently. We were happily surprised to see the front lawn spruced up with plants and greens, creating a fitting entrance to the house.
Our affable and genial host greeted us warmly and immediately led us to a tour of his spectacular bedroom, which simply took our breaths away. The room was enormous with a sunken entertainment area done in immaculate white. His fine collection of huge reproductions of famous paintings in Europe dominates the entire room. Various objects d’ art were strategically placed to enhance the effect. The king-sized bed looked so inviting that our whole group couldn’t resist sitting on it for a photo op with former Rep. Kako Lacson.
Dr. Rudy then led us to his incredible bathroom which was as huge as an entire living room. Various works of art filled the room, including a beautiful chandelier, giving it a romantic glow. We noticed the top-of-the-line accoutrements for the toilet and bath. My goodness, one would feel like a king to bathe in a place like this!
When asked who was his interior designer, Dr. Rudy smilingly said, “That’s me!”
Soon, the rest of the guests arrived and everyone indulged in the gustatory pleasures the doctor had tastefully laid out especially for guests. It was a delightful evening of fine friends, who enjoyed each other’s company amid a very welcoming relaxed ambience.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DR RUDY!*
