Posts: 3230$ versus Php or just P
I notice a lot of guys have started slipping between using dollars and pesos when they quote prices.
If you have been to the Phils you can easily spot the instances where guys say $250 - 350 for an appetiser when you know they mean P250 - 350.
However, for newbies, when dollars and pesos are confused they might wonder at some prices quoted (an AC ride in a bus costing $600 in one post and P 2000 for a car/taxi in another one).
I respectfully suggest that you use the $ sign only when you actually mean dollars (US), and use P or php when you mean pesos.
BTW, with the rather large current difference between the USD and the Aussie dollar (AUD), it might help to look for differentiation between those currencies too if you are running on a tight budget and looking for accurate costings.

Posts: 1121Easter in Angeles
To get off the fine food restaurants subject, I ponder the following, and wonder if someone has an answer.
Commonly we are told the girls leave Angeles and go home to their provinces to enjoy family reunion during this important religious time, Easter.
Was anyone in Angeles during Easter and did they experience a lack of girls because of the much talked about exodus of girls during Easter?
I thought Easter would be an exciting time to be in Angeles. Is this so, or is it best to avoid Angeles and Philippines during Easter?
Any response much appreciated.

ABC Hotel has a nice restaurant. I think there are some items in the P350 range but most of it is higher.
You can walk to ABC from Fields, short Jeepney ride to Bretto's or Clarkton.
There are a couple of clean restaurants not located in hotels that I have had good meals. Fortunes Hong Kong Seafood restaurant on MacArthur. Short walk from Fields, turn right at McDonalds to MacArthur and walk a few blocks and it is on your right side. There is Cafe "D" on Teodoro Street. Manson Drugs is at Teodoro and Fields next to 7-11, just walk down Manson side of Teodoro (opposite of going to Jollibee) a few blocks (past Bliss Massage) and it is on your right side. Fortunes is P350+ and Cafe "D" is <P300.

Posts: 1819There's an okay Indian restaurant next to Phillies Sport Bar, down the side road. Also a cheap Middle Eastern Restaurant (The Red Sea) down by where Blue Nile once was (McD end of Fields).
Mostly, I find the options in most hotels and restaurants dreadful. Seem to be dating back 30 years. The food is one of the worst aspects of Phils, but you just got to take the rough with the smooth.

Posts: 244You can lead a horse to water
I met up with Dashing Don last night and squired him around town. Once again, I tried to tell him about tipping, or lack thereof. What does he do? He starts by tipping twenty percent in the restaurants. If that were not bad enough I took him to Pony Tails and pointed out the white tagged girls are every bit as nice as the green tags. For once he listened to me and bar fined a white tagged girl for 2 k. This morning I meet up with him for breakfast at Margarita Station. Even though I told him the customary tip is 100 pesos he actually bragged to me he tipped her 1000 pesos. I'm beginning to think he is doing this just to [CodeWord140] me off.

Posts: 1819Ahleah massage
The heart of Santos Street ST bars seems to have been ripped out. I only spotted 2 down there now. A lame looking Black Pearl, and Perfect Life. Better looking choices. Excluding the 1-girl bar on the corner of Pac Brz.
So I wonder if anyone knows of any others down Fields (except for Raymonde St ones)? Also, anyone know anything about Ahleah Massage (opp Pac Brz Hotel) - would be handy if the do STs. Or Honky Tonk Bar?

Posts: 155Places to Eat
I will be in AC next month. What hotels can I go to and eat that are reasonable? IS it worth while or do I deal with the normal street restaurants. I will eat Korean on Walking street and Philly's for breakfast. Just want to know some more. Don't want to eat Jollibee's every day.
