Cebu's World Class Guitar

Places in Cebu

Guitar is one of the most common used string instruments all over the world.  I just wondering where can I buy good guitars.  I used to play guitar since elementary and I can determine what is good and bad guitar.  I tried to search in google and it lead me to Cebu again.  Well no doubt  for it,  I tried to go to the downtown area particularly in Manalili St. near Carbon market and  there I saw different guitars hanging with various designs and forms.  Then I do strumming and it sounds good same as what John Mayer and Eric Clapton used.  The best thing is it only sells a very least price and I was really amazed.  I was not expecting that a world class guitar comes with a very cheap and affordable price.  Aside in Carbon ,  I heard that it can be found in Lapulapu and still part in Cebu.  Tourist and even known artist and musicians are also patronizing our guitar product.  In fact they use to buy and sell it to other countries.  They said that the secret is they do it with bare hands and no technology applied just the traditional way of making.  So Cebu is not only known for delicious food, beaches but it also known a world class guitar instrument ever produce.

Lechon Festival in Talisay City Cebu

festival in cebu
October 15 is the fiesta of Talisay City and known for their "Lechon Festival" in honor of Patron St. Sta. Teresa de Avila.  Lechon was introduced during Spanish regime and it is mostly referred to pork dish and eventually the main course for Filipino dishes.

Talisay City is situated south bound and one of the major cities comprises Cebu.  It was derived from "Mantalisay tree" which is abundant on the city.  It has 22 barangays and I live there for almost 3 decades now.

Now going back,  a lot of people are looking forward to buy lechon during the big day since this will be cut off almost half of its original price.  I remember that it took me an hour to lined up just to buy 100 pesos per kilo worth of lechon.  Even people who are not resident in Talisay are making reservations.
I interviewed most of them and they say that its not the price but its the taste that makes it different from others.

Cebu's Best Fruit

choose cebu

Before I go to the office,  I usually drop by on the fruit stand near Sto. Rosario Church.  I have notice various kinds of mangoes and I bought one and bring it to the office, it cost around 60 pesos per kilo.  Quite expensive but I tasted it and voila the best mango I ever tried.

They said that Cebu has the best mango to produce through out Philippines.  No questions on that since we can only find dried mangoes as one of the "pasalubong" .   My friends from outside Cebu always ask me to buy them one.  Indeed, it was also been exported to other countries since the quality and quantity to produce can be done here in Cebu.  The tropical weather and abundant land is the main factors why we have the best mango ever produce.

Why choose Cebu?

choose cebu
To begin with I would like to give you an overview of what is choose Cebu all about.  Well basically it talks more on what's inside Cebu.  This may pertains to culture, events, history, people, places, songs, food and etc. that can only be found on Cebu.  I am a pure Cebuano,  where I never been transferred to any places.  For almost 30 years of existence I was able to witnessed this place from a very simple way of living to a very urbanized well plan place , tall buildings , nice beaches, malls everywhere and good housing area.

Cebu is also known as the "Queen City of the South" because it is strategically located at the center of  the Philippines.  It is also accessible from North to South.  Major commercial activities happened here as well.

So to all viewers out there be a part of discovering Cebu.  It was indeed a great place,  choosing Cebu is choosing eternal happiness.

cheerio!
