Press Release Body = For most Filipinos, Makati and Ortigas are two of the best cities to check out, since both offer exciting spots as well as discoveries evoking human senses. Pasay City being one of the original four cities of Metro Manila and was famous back in the American era is still capable of competing with its neighboring districts.
It is bordered on the north by the country\'s capital, Manila, to the northeast by Makati City, to the east by Taguig City, and Parañaque City to the south.
What can actually excite visitors of Pasay City? There are at least five interesting finds visitors should not fail to experience.
Touring Pasay City via a Jeepney Ride. Riding a Jeepney is not only cheaper, and it gives visitors a taste of real Manila. A tour in Manila, particularly in Pasay City would not be complete without trying a Jeepney. Jeepney routes start from Baclaran to Taft Avenue, then from Taft corner Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue to Makati City, the country's central business district.
A Jeepney is a chrome-plated vehicle, known to be an automotive icon in the Philippines. Filipinos ride on this type of war-ravaged American military-inspired vehicle [a surplus from Second World War], but manufactured brand new by enterprising Filipinos to fit the Philippine setting. These vehicles with elaborate decors accentuated with eclectic colors, carry one-third of the city\'s commuters daily.
Witness the talents of Singing Cooks and Waiters. The Singing Cooks and Waiters combine Filipinos' love for food, music and socialization as they never fail to wow their diner-guests. For decades now, it has become a Manila institution as they serve their guests by serenading through metal platters as musical accompaniment along with the best Filipino cooked dishes such as such as Kare-Kareng Baka [beef in peanut sauce] and Adobong Pusit [squid cooked in stew-style].
The Ongpaucos of and their business partners of the Barrio Fiesta fame take pride in their 17 years of food business experience and are responsible for success of Singing Cooks and Waiters.
