Party Animal = Barfine

Tourist — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 13:02:00 +0000

There is this saying Only in the Philippines. It's used whenever foreigner don't understand why Filipinos do things the way they do. One of those why-questions might me on Angeles City tourists' lips these days when they want to pay a barfine for a bargirl in bars along Fields Avenue. "Sorry Sir, no more barfine available." "Why?" "You can pay for party animal, same - same!". Okay, it buys a large bottle of coconut wine, but you can't take it out of the bar. However, the Pinay bargirl of your choice is free to leave the bar with her customer. Full story »

Up to You Lounge

Tourist — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 12:59:00 +0000

Recently, I emntioned a Santos Street bar: Honky Tonk opposite of Wild Orchid Resort. The bar has been closed in November 2011 for a few days and reopened under a new name: Up to You Lounge. It looks pretty much like before. Cheap drinks and a couple of friendly hostesses who are available for company. Unlike before they are not employees of the bar, but freelancers who work on their own behalf. Full story »

Road Construction

Road construction at night

As of March 2012 Angeles City and Barangay Balibago governments are conducting road construction on the corner of Fields Avenue and Santos Street. It's possibly a bad idea to try passing this bottle neck by vehicles this day to reach your Santos Street condominium, hotel or blow road bar at night time as it's closed. It's a pretty nice shot I captured from this non-parking sign in front of Kokomoz Restaurant and One Eyed Wench bar.

Gobbles

Tourist — Sat, 25 Feb 2012 16:37:00 +0000

One of the few mini bars on Santos Street: Goobles bar. It has a couple of GROs waiting for guests.

Another establishment on Blowroad Santos Street that has been closed down late 2011 for qualified trafficking. Recently, before the closure, Gobbles bar has been refurbished and renovated to attract customers from new Penthouse Hotel and Wild Orchid Resort. It was a small bar with round the clock operation and very friendly staff. Prices were very reasonable, but their rooms rather small and a certain stint. The open area bar had a very comfortable new sofa. Full story »

Honky Tonk Bar

Tourist — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 16:25:00 +0000

A pedestrian cross walk leads visitors of The Wild Orchid Resort right into opposite Honky Tonk bar. HT is the largest mini bar on Santos Street. It's busy in the morning and during afternoons.

Two waitresses from Honky Tonk bar. The Filipina hostesses from this bar are fairly attractive and have good people skills. Very friendly and easy going place for laid back visitors who enjoy cheap drinks.

Straight across the street from luxury hotel 'Wild Orchid Resort' there was used to be a Santos Street watering hole: Honky Tonk Bar. It had the cheapest drinks in town. A couple of easy to get along with women would site around and ask for ladydrinks. Once agreed they were willing to engage in guest relation services. Fort a small fee, rooms were for rent. However, Honky Tonk Bar was closed late 2011. It re-opened under the name Up-to-You Bar just a few days later. Same staff and prices, even same Blow Road furniture. Review will follow soon.Full story »

Kokomoz

Kokomoz restaurant and 24h hangout

Few years back there were just 2 large 24h restaurants on Fields Avenue: Margarita Ville and Kokomoz. They are both still in business althought many things around them have changed. Originally, founded by Canadian Dave Fischer, Kokomoz has become a very popular hangout by local and internet marketing. It hosted many parties and infamous wet-t-shirt contests in the past. Today, it's more of a hangout on the corner of Fields and Santos Street. Their cuisine is not the number one in town, but their snacks like Fried Potatoes and French Fries are delicious and prices are ok. Full story »

Rhapsody Bar

Tourist — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 19:04:00 +0000

While it's located on Santos Street, it's not a classic Blowroad bar, but more one of the glamor bars from Fields Avenue. The manager of this bar has been involved in many charity events giving underprivileged kids and people a new perspective and management has always been active in providing eduction to their staff about STDs. As for party people it's a place that is miss or hit. Some days it's hot, other days it's like a lake with dead fish. Full story »
