A kitsch karaoke

This one will be a very short post, but I couldn't miss the chance of telling about such a place. It's the third time the people I work with go to this restaurant, and I just can't understand why (well, maybe yes...). Last friday was my first time, and... It is certainly a kind of shameful scene watching how 10 lawyers (none of us under 25) get merry (when not drunk) among several teens celebrating their 18th birthday. However, it was really funny.
If you're young and live in Barcelona, sure you know the restaurant. It's called "La Orquidea" (Calvet 14, very close to Francesc Macià), and it's not easy to find, so small the entry is. The stairs will lead you to a Chinese Restaurant, really tacky decorated, where you can sing, as a karaoke is in the middle of the hall. We sang Pimpinela. No comments, please. Avoid any dish, but over all, the salads (tones of "who knows what-oil") and the chicken (it's pink). I can't tell anything about the desserts, because one of us changed them for sangria jugs.
Confucio says: The wise man can sit over an anthill, but only the fool remains sat on it.
Guys, I had a great time, but next time Lady Buchannan will choose the restaurant.

¿Pimpinela? Mmmm...se acerca bastante a "Cómo una ola", es incluso más dramático. ¡Pimpinela!

What did you understand when I said "no comments, please?" And nothing, absolutely nothing, defies "Como una ola".
