Visited the Philippines and met up with members of RoadGuide Philippines community. They operate similar to what MSM does, and produces an excellent community map of the Philippines

Here is some pics of the EB ( Philippino term for GG ) held at Bacino's Wine Bar, Greenbelt 2 Mall, Makari, Philippines :thumbsup:

File comment: The signature dish Paella Vallenciana is quite a large serving and can easily fill up two people.The rice was flavorful and cooked with a charred bottom. Came with a seafood topping. It's the best paellas I've had in Manila.

Nice ... but ... Spanish food in the land of the Pinoy-Pinay? Should be having Crispy Pata,
balut, bagoong alamang, Inahaw Na Bangus. So, how are the RGPs? Do they face similar
obstacles as us here?
