    Nice channel and videos. Been watching you're vlogs. Guam and Philippines. Great show and information.

    Thanks for taking the time to show all these places. I never would have figured there was such a diverse selection in your place.

      We could use a few more. When the new Gaisano mall opens soon there will be more choices, I'm sure.

    Some of the places look very modern and stylish and just shows what a modern growing city you have there. Enjoyable vid

    Yes, that's quite a few alternative choices for one town. Excellent idea for a video, and well worth the trouble and time to upload. Your doing good! Cheers!

    I like the park& go bread and Chowking is always a favourite. There used to be a little restaurant boat just by the bridge. It was a great idea but too close to the fish port to make eating there pleasant. All of Samar is growing fast

    • @livinginthepacific
      @livinginthepacific  8 лет назад

      I like those bakeries too. Calbayog is growing almost too fast!

    Hi Randy, it's been a number of years since I've visited Calbayog. Watching your video I'm surprised to see far more choices of places to dine out. With all these new restaurants that have sprung up, and new hotels being built, it must mean the population of expats has increased in and around Calbayog and/or tourism is on the rise.
    Do you have any idea what the current population is of foreigners living in and around Calbayog?

    • @livinginthepacific
      @livinginthepacific  8 лет назад +1

      Calbayog has seemed to explode over the last three years with new construction happening everywhere. I personally know of around 25 expats here in the Calbayog City area, but estimates from the local BI folks here say upwards of a couple hundred in Samar Province.

    REBELITOS halo-halo is my fav since 1970's when I was still living in Calbayog. As a kid I cannot afford to eat halo2 bcoz its expensive, so every year from elementary to highschool, I always study hard bcoz at the end of school year if I become an honor student and get a ribbon/medal from our class, my late dad always give us a reward for studying hard, by treating us to Rebelitaos halo2....its just a simple joy but for a small kid, that was a big deal. Since then , every time I went back to Calbayog for a vacation. I always eat Rebelitos halo2 for the sake of happy childhood memories .. :-)

    • @livinginthepacific
      @livinginthepacific  8 лет назад

      What a wonderful memory. Maybe you can come back soon for your favorite halo-halo! Thanks for watching.

    • @hunterpinoy6075
      @hunterpinoy6075 8 лет назад

      during my childhood time in 1970's. in Calbayog , I think there are only 5 restaurants and Rebelitos is the only one that serves cold treat a halo2 a kids favorite...its comparable to kids favorite today the Jolllibee. In elementary I have to save school snack allowance for a week just to save and buy a Rebelitos halo2...bcoz my daily snack allowance is only 25 cents and halo2 cost around 1 peso and 50 cents ...hehe Calbayog fiesta Sept 8 I will go back there just to eat Rebelitos halo2. :-)

    • @hunterpinoy6075
      @hunterpinoy6075 8 лет назад

      haha that would be great.....anyways, If you visit Calbayog...try Rebeletos halo2 its much better than Chowking halo2.....the difference is Rebelitos halo2 have sweet mongo beans, this recipe has never been change since 1970's....and that distinct taste I always miss and craving for...hehe :-)

    Where do you get hip background music like that? I've wondered about this on other blog sites as well.

      Scour the internet for royalty free music. RUclips also has a good collection of free music.

    Gotta love Bo's Coffee. Spent many a morning there in Cebu City. Wonderful coffee, at least if the quality is across the board as I assume it is.

    • @livinginthepacific

      My wife tried to train the Bo's staff to make her coffee half-strength but she could never get it to sink in. They look at he like she is a bit off!

    Hows the seafood there?

    • @livinginthepacific
      @livinginthepacific  8 лет назад

      Seafood here can be purchased off the boat or at the market. Some of the large catch fish such as Yellow Fin Tuna, and other larger game fish can be up to 5 days old by the time it reaches market. Large fish catches are usually imported from Gensan City or other points to our south and are delivered on ice. Smaller fish species, crab, and squid are usually locally caught and are fresh daily.
