“A good friend knows when to pour a glass of wine and talk it out. A great friend knows when to shut up and hand over the bottle.” - Anon

Days before our graduation day, we were thinking of pausing and just reflect about our college days. Indeed, college changed us in ways we could not imagine. 

We settled for a cheap spirit, some chips and wine (just a little percent of alcohol). We even had yogurt. But that’s not the point. We just want to talk about a lot of things that’s going on our minds, and our plans for the near future. We were afraid of getting drunk (which happens all the time btw) and ending up on an accident, not a good news for a graduating student. Anyway, we just stay sober and chill.

What I really like about this restaurant is the ambiance. I really like the thought that they actually used an old house - the typical Filipino houses that we see in historical movies, or  just like the ancestral houses of our elders. 

Our table was in the second floor of the restaurant/house so the photos are mostly taken there. 

According to a review by Poorprince,  Ms. Joy Angeli Uy aka “Shobe” is the founder of Dong Juan Bohol Branch. 

If you want that traditional ambiance and pinoy meal, go to this restaurant. Its address is  M. Parras cor G. Visarra in Tagbilaran.

I don't care. I don't care anymore. I don't like to hear negative stories. Not anymore. I don't like hearing shits. I'm starting to hate drama. I don't post sappy (like this one) status in my wall. Not anymore. I'm avoiding it as much as I can. I don't want to exaggerate things because I'm sad. Not anymore. I don't want to go crying out of desperation. Out of non-sense stuff. I don't want to go finding someone to complete me. Find my other half? No. I'm not a half. I'm whole.

You see, things changed. And a quote says "I'm doing changes in my life and if I don't communicate with you anymore, you're one of them." But I'm still glad that things have changed through time. You changed me. I became positive compared before. I want to do things on my own now. Do things on my own but for the benefit of others. Wow, you changed me.

Our place is just the right restobar for Cebuanos/Cebuanas, tourists, and foreigners who are looking for foreign recipes in town. It is located in the downtown of Cebu, Pelaez Street. It is near University of San Carlos - Law Building. 

The foods served are mostly of western influences but they also served Filipino dishes. Here are the price range of their foods: 

Take note that there will be a short delay in ordering because according to them, they cook their foods on the spot and fresh.

I ordered a Mexican Steak for lunch. I was with my Tatay and Nanay (both came from England). We went there on a Sunday, there was really a delay in their food because there was no chef on-duty. But it was okay because Nanay and Tatay invited their friends so we got to talk about a lot of things before eating. 

The ambiance of the place was so Westernized. But like it was like the golden times version.
