Rizal Park is built in dedication to the Philippine’s National Hero Dr. Jose Rizal. It is located in Manila, bounded by four (4) major streets - Padre Burgos, Taft Avenue, Roxas Boulevard and TM Kalaw Sr.
It used to be originally called Bagumbayan (New Town) prior to the American occupation.
This was an unplanned shoot. My intention was to go to watch Aliw Festival in Quirino Grandstand, and take photos there of a cultural dance competition held last April 25, 2009. I took several shots, but these are the better ones.

It was my first time to eat here. The food was good. I was entertained by the singing cooks and waiters and waitresses. I did know the prices of the food since a friend of my sister treated us.
I went home overly satisfied. Will surely go back there.

I have not been inside this unusual restobar yet. It would interesting to try out sometime.
I was in my adventurous self again. I went out walking along C. Raymundo in Pasig City to look for a new place to eat. It was just near from where i live though. Then i found an unknown pizza outlet named, 5th Avenue.
I only brought about 130 pesos in my pocket. I thought that amount was enough in this unknown pizza outlet. But when i looked at the prices. Oh, no. Anyway, i chose the food that was below 100 pesos. It was Crispy BBQ Fish Fillet, its a piadinas. Piadinas is an Italian origin flatbread. The appearance is like the Mexican taco. I brought the food home.
When I took my first bite, it was WOW. I really like the taste! The 95 peso price was worth it.
5th Avenue is Filipino owned. It is a New York inspired pizza company, just like the more popular Yellow Cab pizza.

I used to eat in Morayta regularly during my review days.
Found this at the Inquirer.net new site.
