Services are good, as well as their products, they have unique styles of cloths and bags, where you cant find to other stores here in San Carlos.

Ambience is great, price is just right, the cakes are delicious but combined with super creamy iced latte didnt agree well with my tummy

Quiet, serene, beautiful views and a zoo is what you'll get a whispering palms. There's wi-fi, gym, and a mini zoo with monkeys and a crocodile. After dark all sorts of animals come out, giant millipedes, giant crabs to name but a few, and a short walk away is the beach and at night saw hundreds of crabs and starfish.

A few years ago I bought my Kawasaki 135 Rouser at Gaisano, picked up the bike at Du Ek Sam who serviced my bike after that for free. Owner and staff is friendly and helpful if they are not busy. I only can say good things about Du Ek Sam and would recommend them to anybody !

Probably the only place in town with a real Chinese heritage, Ama Tiya’s Restaurant has managed to retain its southeastern Chinese cooking all these years. A row of back-to-back booths along one side (ala dimsum houses) provides an intimate setting for a group of four to enjoy the house’s signature thick ‘lomi’ or steaming ‘hototay.’ Basically done in the Fookienese/Taiwanese style of cooking, the other dishes are delicious and flavorful as well. Crowd favorites are the sweet and sour recipes as well as the rice toppings. Introducing more options with emphasis on its ancient roots would be most welcome and more likely than not, arouse additional interest. Service-wise, the staff needs to be more welcoming and attentive to customers. At least, the restrooms are clean but kind of small and could use some more ventilation. With a videoke in place to cater to the beer-drinking crowd, it somewhat lessens the place’s appeal to family-oriented dining. Just across the street from BDO, Ama Tiya’s is a nice spot for merienda and some ‘barkadahan’ sing-along with cold beer and tasty ngoyong

It is so amazing to see the new San Carlos City Hospital in a very therapeutic place. The physical structure is very nice and huge compared to the old one where I had my first employment. I suggest that the hospital administration should adapt a good infection prevention and control program to be implemented. However, during my few visits as one of the construction workers working for us was confined. I saw practices and process that doesn’t met with the infection prevention control (IPC) standards, . I have to mention a few for improvement: there was renovation activities that was close to the patients wards and nurses stations- with out dust control or abatement. Dust may spread and cause fungal infections to patients with low immune system. I saw one of the housekeepers cleaning the ER, using a broom to sweep dust producing airborne particles that may potentially spread infections. I appreciated seeing healthcare workers working in ER with their masks on but some are kept hanging on their necks. I observed masks were not changed from one patients to another. PPEs should be used appropriately according to the transmission based precautions. Healthcare workers did not perform hand hygiene before and after touching patients. I strongly suggest that healthcare workers must be trained periodically. Posters of 5 moments of hand hygiene from WHO must be hanged in appropriate places that will remind healthcare workers. I hope they will hang alcohol hand rubs in accessible places e.g. in ER, patient rooms nurses stations and in designated places; if not possible in every patients beds to encourage hand hygiene and prevent transmission of hospital acquired infections. I saw that healthcare waste (previously known as medical waste) was not segregated properly and was placed outside the ER . This will expose the public with the waste and provide an easy access putting them at risk of its hazards. I did not notice that there was sharp container in ER or in the procedure trolleys. Sharps are the most dangerous healthcare waste as it cause a double injury. It can cause cuts and wounds and bloodborne infections e.g. HIV, Hep. B and C. Other hazardous waste e.g. chemicals and pharmaceuticals must be segregated and treated properly according to the national standards. I strongly suggest that the hospital administration must find ways on how to implement (IPC) international and national standards. Let’s save lives.

Nice place to hang out with friends for food trip and drinks, choice of food though very limited, met up with friends there at only 7pm, wa nay pangsugba!

Sirs, this is not a review but a report of an incident and I need your authority to correct. The 16-yr old son of Tomas Bermejo, named Edward, just hit the left eye of our dog that was inside our fence with his sling shot. I saw him, and asked him why he did this. He only said that he was shooting the birds inside our perimeter. Then the pedicab driver who was eating under the guava tree told me he hit the dog on the head. I went to their area and sought his mother's opinion why this son is destructive. She explained that he is mentally slow, and must be taking drugs. Can you please investigate, as I will also have a police blotter later. The other two guys who were sitting in front of their gate (around 10:45) told me that the behavior of this person is hard to explain, and that he is abnormal. Is there a way you can help to protect the rest of us from this neighbor?

Very relaxing place and unique from other spots, since there are only a few lake here in Negros. But as soon as you arrived the place, the caretaker approaches to tell you that it is not allowed to stay there since the lake is protected area. There is another second lake on the upper side, no restrictions & you can even fish but it's not that good.

Opening with a bang, Chef Nitoy’s Grille & Restaurant immediately captivated a lot of patrons with its good food and swift service in a relaxing courtyard setting. Many times did we enjoy the sizzling sisig, marlin and tuna while the kids favored the grilled chicken/liempo meals. Its ‘kansi’ was the tummy-warming order of choice before partaking of its signature ‘pancit canton’. The crispy ‘lumpia’ paired so well with the sub-zero beer. In short, it had all the makings of a preferred dining destination. But that was then. Fast forward to the recent and our two visits ended up being disappointments. Changes were made, but not with the desired result. Its once-open courtyard is now paved over – thus losing a natural aspect of the place. Moreover, a steel-trussed roof over it has caused a dampening effect on an otherwise bright portion. Just can’t help but feel that I’m in a basketball covered court. Additionally, the food quality has taken a dive while service has also followed the same route. Surprisingly, the ‘CR’s’ are still clean and functioning. Sayang naman. After all, it is in one of the better spots on the city’s famous food avenue and has solid fundamentals. Maybe professional make-over and management reform are needed to restore the luster of this once-rising star.
