Tsiban Resto & Sports Bar

As I only had 1 beer at Te Amo Boss, I asked the driver to get us to another night place, if any, because, the night was young and so were we, but only God can make a tree! Hehe!

Then we remembered something we saw earlier when we entered Catarman. Some kind of a native style house that is a restaurant/bar somewhere near the Catarman Bridge.

So we looked for it and we easily found it... Tsiban Resto & Sports Bar!

WhoaMyGee! If Te Amo Boss had no people other than us, Tsiban Resto and Sports Bar teems with lively humanity it felt like the whole of Catarman was in the place haha!

This is a big restaurant with live bands entertaining diners. I could see that food on every table seemed delectable. But we already had dinner, so I aimed for beer. Oops, it felt a bit awkward that virtually all tables had Red Horse on them - even the students. Parang ako lang yata ang naka SanMigLight! Just like Cebu! Well, strict ang parents ko!

Then we saw that on the right side is a row of pool tables. Yes, billiards!

Aba eh, di nagbilyar kami - with lively band music for a background. Coolness!

Hep hep hep... don't ask for any more pictures. Wala! I didn't dare go on a shootout rampage, baka di na ako sikatan ng umaga hahaha! Puro Red Horse kaya ang hawak ng mga tao. Even that one on the billiards, I snapped it just quickly and secretly. Mahirap na.

Eto picture, I saw on a wall that they also have (new) videoke rooms yata. Good!

So those who want to croak themselves to death can do it privately. As for the rest of us who just want to listen to good music, the bands were doing it well. They're very good!

Nice place. I wouldn't be surprised if this place becomes the biggest thing in Catarman.

Fun!

Trapped In Oras, Eastern Samar

Image
Oras is a pacific-facing town up the northern portion of Eastern Samar. This town's name is not pronounced like the Tagalog word for time. No, not like that! It is [o'ras] where the stress is in the second syllable. The speed and tone is like how you say the English words "alight", "chorale", "amass" or "awash". Okay, that's good enough, I know you got it! Uu da, oke na da it! Asya it! Yesterday, I was in the area checking on some work-related matters. Stayed overnight in this town as I haven't yet heard if accommodation facilities are available in San Policarpo or Arteche (these are the 3 northern-most towns of Eastern Samar). This morning, I was on my way to other nearby places, but.. I got trapped (happily) by a parade! That long white bridge behind them is the only way out south... A youngish set of town officials, I must say. Oh, the girl in the middle is not a muse. She is THE Mayor! But by the looks of it, she migh...

Hinatuan, A Quick Visit

Image
Happy (and thankful) to have seen the center of this town, even if I did not at all dream of being in the place yet! I only wanted to see Tinuy-an Falls and Enchanted River which I thought were both in Bislig ! Only to find out that Enchanted River is even farther away than Hinatuan, from Bislig or Tinuy-an Falls! This place is out of the way if you come from anywhere in Bislig to the Enchanted River or vice-versa! So, how did I find myself here? Nag-detour? Well, I would like to think of this as some kind of a gift! An addition to my itinerary (at no extra cost), for lack of anything else to do and/or any place else to see! Why? Because we were moving too fast from place to place, because: I did not stay long at Tinuy-an Falls or Enchanted River.., because: there were just too many visitors that I did not enjoy it any longer! Whose fault? Mine! Lesson learned: DO NOT VISIT SURIGAO DEL SUR ON A HOLY WEEK! So.., because we were already done with Tinuy-an Falls and Enchanted Ri...

THE BOULEVARD, Surigao City

Image
Virtually everyone in Surigao City is related to this boulevard directly or indirectly! It's such a big thing , they even have a Surigao City Boulevard Development Program and a Surigao City Development Authority . I'm not joking. Those are for real. As in! Involved in it are not only their local politicians but also the chambers of commerce. What is it anyway? Foremost it's a 1.8 kilometer stretch of a highway along the seafront. The concrete pavement tells me it is still new. That is it! Walang basagan ng trip! It is an emulation (kumbaga sa Tagalog pa: gaya-gaya ) of Roxas Boulevard in Manila, or pwede rin Dumaguete’s Rizal Boulevard - and many other seafront boulevards. Aside from being a “park” for the residents, it is supposed to be an attraction in the city, showcasing whatever bla-blah-blah to attract tourists from everywhere on earth. While I was inclined to raise my eyebrows, it did attract me. I was a tourist, right?! So okay, without a speck of d...
