The cebuano people are a proud people so better not be egoist coz they will get offended really if other people think they are superior..

when you arrive in Cebu via the Pier watch out for taxi drivers who try to rip you off..insist to use the meter or ride another cab instead. It would be better off to hire a cab on the streets rather than those parked inside the pier or on the sidewalks

this is rampant in manila "kontrata2 nya di pa jud for u alone ang taxi daghan pa jud mo" manila is worst when it comes to anomalies... grabe![br]Posted on: October 12, 2007, 02:11:25 AM_________________________________________________P EOPLE maybe we should give the person a much profound information, some of the stuff you talked about were also found in Manila like jaywalking, taxi anomalies, snatcher, etc etc whatever like that were infact much worst scenario in manila... She's not from a mountainous province, she's from Manila guys, remember that!

will here's mine, in Cebu if ever you're looking for a job from a well established companies, try to find your way to Cebu business park, or to Cebu IT park... and if ever you're much into Big companies they're usually located in Mandaue city...like San Miguel Corp., Magnolia, Jack n' Jill etc... just befriend someone who knows the flows of Cebu... you know a lot of Cebuano's are friendly if you only asked them nicely....

If you're new in Cebu, it's not advisable to ride taxi cabs, unless you're with someone more knowledgeable of the area.

best halo-halo Meltons in Pardo Cebu City South near Kingsmen; buwad in Taboan; Mangga in Guadalupe; Rosquillos in Titays Liloan; Inasal in Jai-Alai but in Perilos CarCar is the best! Chicharon and Ampaw in CarCar, SuTuKil in Opon;Ukay Ukay in Carbon and more!

Do try going to these places and enjoy what most Cebuanos enjoy! Don't leave Cebu without going to these places! Chow!
