Today we are in Bonifacio Global City (BGC) McKinley Hill in Taguig, Manila, Philippines. 🇵🇭 WE eat local dishes of TRADITIONAL DELICIOUS Filipino FOOD and go on a GONDOLA RIDE!?! Is this the Philippines or ITALY?
We were surprised by the beauty in the Venice Grand Canal Mall and enjoyed the MUST TRY activity of the GONDOLA boat ride! We also ATE our first REAL tastes of FILIPINO food! Our first tastes of CRISPY PATA, EMBUDITO NATIN & GINISANG SAYOTE! Watch and enjoy our Filipino food reactions to the delicious dishes we tried at JUAN'S BISTRO and make sure to watch to find out what WE REALLY thought about the popular filipino dessert HALO HALO.

you've actually just visited mc kinley hill, near BGC. better come back & explore the Bonifacio Global City with its street art & murals. maybe grab a bite at the uptown mall & uptown parade. stroll along the bonifacio high street up to serendra. then go to the skypark (roof deck garden) of sm aura (mall) for a view of BGC. end the day with cocktails & an amazing view of the BGC skyline at sunset &/or early evening @ the straight up bar @ seda hotel. enjoy!

Ahh yes thank you for the clarification! There are so many small cities and areas with in Manila that it can be confusing! We plan to visit high street and the areas that you've mentioned this week! I'll adjust the title and description to better reflect the correct area! We love street art and are looking forward to exploring the area. We've heard Tipsy Pig is a nice spot on High Street?
