[QUOTE=Krum Lov; 1241810]*And what might be the best restaurant regarding good quality western food at reasonable prices on / near the main strip? I remember the food in Angeles last time I was there and it was incredibly poor.
Thanks in advance, Krum.[/QUOTE]If you are not after fast food, my vote goes to Swiss Chalet
Using todays value for the USA dollar it comes out to just short of $36. 00 USA that is a 1500 BF for 42 pesos per dollar. 1500 to 1800 is a decent price. But those 3000 pesos are equal to $72. 00. So it is up to you what you want to spend.

[QUOTE=PIpimp;1241879]Mc Don, these are the kind of posts that [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] me off! Only 700p for a BJ / short time and you want to know if you can get it for 600p? You can not be that cheap! OMG![/QUOTE]The man was answering a question bruv. The original question was whether the price was 600 or 700p! As McD said, the cost is 700p, and that's reasonable.
[QUOTE=PIpimp;1241656]The prices do not go up just because some random guys tip big, the prices go up because of inflation. Hell, barfines was $13 in 1997, and now it's $33. I guess guys tipping big caused that.[/QUOTE]Amazingly slow in the economics deparment. One of the causes of inflation: spending more for a product or products (or purchasing more of it) over a period of time than is customary.
If barfines have more than doubled since 1977, its because bar owners raised the prices. This is done, in part, because they realize that 'poriners' are willing to spend extra money for the girls. If everyone (starting in 1977) had stopped tipping, the barfine would be much closer to the $13 you quoted than the current $33.

And, BTW, she's fine whether you tip or not. Proof of that? See if she's willing to go with you the next night, knowing you didn't tip her the first night. Most likely she will. Many former barfines are willing to spend the night after her shift ends at, say, one am, for p500 (and stay later in the morning, banging a second time, staying thru breakfast or even lunch) , assuming she's comfortable with you (I think you'd be surprised at the goodwill engendered with a Jollibee meal). Why can't a guy ask for a p600 BJ? Krum Luv, you can find p500-700 on the street for ST.

[QUOTE=Vielendank;1236956]It's your arrogance that offends people not your spending habits. I still can't comprehend why you think people are cheap just because they aren't reckless with their money. There is a big difference between sitting down at a table, having a pretty girl / s with you, and spending lots of money on good wine / champagne / meals and "throwing money from the rafters" or however you put it just so you can see the girls chase the money like vultures to a kill. It's condescending and is an insult to the girls. Your not doing them any favors. All you do by throwing money like that is expose how desperate they are instead of treating them with a little respect. There's a difference between having generous spending habits while enjoying life and openly flaunting what you claim to have. I'm guessing you just cashed a couple unemployment checks and wanted to have one night of fun. Reminds me of the liquor stores when the welfare checks hit. All I'm saying is you can spend as much as you want but you should do it in a classy way that isn't demeaning. If you don't understand that concept they you don't have near the life experience that you claim to have and you have zero social graces.[/QUOTE]Are you kidding me, or you just don't get it?
Spending money on the girls or just giving it to them it doesn't take a brain surgeon to know which they prefer.
And it does not matter how much a person has or how much they can afford, it's their vacation, their fun, they can spend it anyway they want to. Please YOURSELF is the only rule. Do what makes YOU happy.
BTW social standards are different in other environments.

I strongly believe that nowadays 500 pesos for a barfine would be more than enough! Of course for LT, an excellent service with bbbjwcim, at least 3 rounds and 100% GFE. Not to forget: At 10am the girl has to invite her customer for a nice breakfast! That would be value for money, or do I expect a little too much? . LOL.
Cheers!

Hesekiels[/QUOTE]Well, to be fair all prices are going up in Phi. Electrictity rates are up, salaries are up, rent is up, Alcohol prices are up. So it is no wonder barfine is up also. I remember in 1995 barfins was around 500-600 pesos.
Girls were extremely GFE and everybody stayed till morning and gave another pop. Some even stayed the whole next day. Now things have changed as all girls have learned how to make quick money with least amount of damage to their body.
Still AC is the cheapest mongering destination by far. Problem now is airfare to Manila from orlando, Florida where I live has gone up. I was lucky to book a ticket for $1035 including tax on continental to tokyo and ana to manila in may.
When I tried to book online it did not go through. Only when I called the lady was nice enough to get a seat on ANA. She said it is extremely difficult to get low priced seats on ANA from Tokyo to Manila because ANA normally charges almost $800 for that leg.
All other sites the price was around 1400-1700 for the same dates not including tax.

Sure this has been asked a few times so let me apologize upfront to those that would be offended. Lonely planet says:
"The Philippines' weather has become more unpredictable in recent years, but January to May usually brings the best weather to most of the country. However, this is also the high tourist season. Foreign arrivals are highest in January to March, while Filipinos hit the road en masse in April and May for their 'summer' holidays. Don't worry too much about crowds though; outside of a few popular beach resorts it's never very hard to escape other tourists in the Philippines. Low season is during the 'rainy' months of June to September, which in some areas of the country aren't rainy at all. Accommodation prices usually decrease during this time."
So that tells me very little. What do you guys think? Is this a bad time to go?
I've narrowed my trip down to Thailand and Philippines. Can I assume weather is about the same?

I hope to never hang out with anyone of you cheap guys. Complaining about a 1500 peso barfine. Asia has the cheapest sex with the most beautiful women in the world. Where else other than Asia can you sleep with a hot chick for less than $40? If ya'll want to complain about prices, you should move to Europe or the States or anywhere else other than Asia!
[quote=poopbunny;1241928]if you are not after fast food, my vote goes to swiss chalet[/quote]it's not cheap but worth every penny - c's italian, just about a 5 min tryke ride past abc hotel. it rivals many upscale italian places here in the us and where i live is full of great italian places.
Krum Lov I spent 20 days in AC last month for my cherry trip. The woman are awesome & the trip far exceeded all my expectations.
I am a 70 yo, fat, bald, retired guy from south jersey, USA, and enjoy good food. But I was there for the sex & not gourmet food, I did not try any of the Hotel or recommended specialty restaurants.
My best meals were at Margarita Station, fantastic omelets & burgers and Fortune Chinese on MacArthur Blvd (across from casino). Beware Fortune Chinese closes early, like between 9 & 10 pm, like most normal restaurants. The food is 4, I had incredible huge shrimp in a garlic sauce & my girl had jumbo shrimp similar to grandfather chicken w / some pepper flakes (my have been a Thai dish) also huge plate of excellent garlic broccoli.
The only other place I ate was at SM Clark – Krispy Kream Donuts, Pizza Hut, Sbarros, Kenny Rodgers & my all time favorite Philappino fast food – Joolibee (excellent fried, spicy fried or BBQ chicken). You can buy chicken or burgers without the rice or spaghetti.
Also had some good [email]snacks@Phillies[/email] Sports Bar – loved that place, live band between 10p & 2a every nite (my favorite a rock band called Free Play on Tues & Fr) , sexy philapinas playing pool, some freelancers, open 24 hrs.
