Manila Diary 2

Makati Business Districts view from my office


The fifth day, seafood dinner again but this time is fresh seafood. The crab and the prawn are all first class fresh, surpass our seafood market dinner two days ago !


The restaurant is near the US embassy seaside, called SeaWalf.

As promise, we headed to Makati city after the dinner. It is the business district of Manila where dominated by high rise buildings. The journey to Makati is a painful one. The short 10KM took us more than 40min due to the peak hour traffic.

The traffic jam at Makati city

However it is worth the effort because we got the chance to see the other busy part of Manila.
Makati city looks more like a metropolitan than other place of Manila. Many 5 Stars hotels and high class residential apartments occupying the area. We stopped at the Greenbelt malls and spent our time at one of the open air dining café.



We were lucky to witness the famous ‘Side A’ band performs at an open stage. I can tell you the main singer showing here has one of the best solid voice that I ever heard from a live band !
I love the live bands here !!!
