Judy Ann hopes to open new restaurant

MANILA, Philippines -- Actress Judy Ann Santos has obviously enjoyed her hosting job for the recently concluded "Pinoy Junior MasterChef" that she's now planning to open another restaurant.
In 2006, Santos opened her first restaurant Kaffe Karabana in Quezon City. But because of her busy schedule, she decided to close it.
In an interview, Santos said she might put up a fine dining restaurant next year.
“Pagdating sa pagpapatayo ng restaurant, palagi naman akong may plano. Hindi naman maitatanggi 'yan. Sabi nga sa akin ni Chef Fern (Aracama) na it’s not easy to put up a restaurant, especially kung ikaw 'yung magluluto kasi it requires a lot of time and patience and, of course, a lot of money," she said.
But before the restaurant, she said she might try doing exclusive dinners for small groups.
"Siguro kung darating ako sa punto na magluluto ako para sa ibang tao, baka sit-down menu sa bahay -- maaaring sa bahay namin or private kitchen -- 'yung ganun na lang. Hindi na siguro 'yung publicized, kasi hindi rin kaya ng oras ko. Siguro kung may magpapa-reserve for a maximum of 15 people, hanggang dun kaya ko mag-serve ng fine dining na menu for reservations," she said.
"Kung kailan? Matagal pa, maghahanap muna ako ng bahay na puwede kong paglutuan. Pero 'yun 'yung definite plans ko for this year. Hopefully next year may restaurant na fine dining,” she added.
Santos admitted that her love for cooking was the reason she put up Kaffe Karabana.
She even took up culinary courses under veteran chef Gene Gonzales.
For Santos, the restaurant and the culinary studies will also come in handy if ever she decides to leave showbiz.
“Ayoko naman ng tatanda ako ng wala naman akong ibang ginagawa kundi umiyak lang ng umiyak. Hindi naman na yata tama 'yon, hindi ba? Alam ko kasi for a fact na itong trabahong ito ay hindi naman ito pang-matagalan," she said.
"Mas gusto ko rin ipakita sa mga anak ko na ang pag-aaral doesn’t stop after graduating high school and college. It’s a continuous process na if you really want to learn, kahit anong edad ka puwede ka mag-aral. So chinallenge ko 'yung sarili ko, nag-culinary [studies] ako and napatunayan ko na maraming pera sa culinary [arts],” she explained.
