    At Paseo the Roxas the sunset in Manila shows its beautiful colours reflected on the Manila bay.

    In the evening the boulevard gets crowded of people walking around, looking for restaurants or even for some nice spot.

  • Will tell u some of my favorite places in Manila/Makati/ Malate and around!
    Some restaurants, bars and discos!
    - Malate area try:
    . Cafe Havana, a latin bar, also full of tourists, or how they say here, White guys, lots of hookers as well, wonderfull food and music! Live band on saturdays night;
    . Cafe Adriatico (facing HAvana) offers good food as well;
    - Hobbit house - this bar is curious, all the staff are dwarfs! U have to take care not to hit them when they come near to give ur drink! :)
    Theres also the gay area of Malate, lots of bar, a really good disco that i cant remember the name now, and the most famous bar, Fidel.

    Mas y Mas, Baluarte de San Andres, Intramuros, Manila.
    Care to go to a rave in a dungeon?

    Anything goes, but Manila's party set likes to dress to the nines. No slippers, please.

    Hobbit House. This is a Manila institution which employs only midgets.It's been here as far as I can remember. It's basically a brasserie with local musicians playing folk music. But the highlight has to be the efficient and friendly midgets that run the place
    The hobbits.

    Neat casual. Nothing flash.

    Handsdown, the most happening place in Manila for night life is Malate - when I was there at least. No other place else I have been to have I seen such a concentration of people in such a concentrated area devoted to bars and clubs. Ok, perhaps not as concentrated as Lan Kwai Fong in Hong Kong, but Malate is bigger. All the clubs I went to were quite packed. The loungy, sit-down kind of places were always almost to capacity as well. Very lively. And when there was a street party, it was fun-o-rama!! Always had a great time when I went there. And at night, without the traffic, getting around Manila was surprisingly fast. I was staying in Makati, and still that was the place I went to the most on the weekends. If you're staying in Manila proper, then you might even be within walking distance to it! Definitely worth checking out. Suitable for practically all sorts, though the not-yet-legal and 20-somethings dominate. Lots of tourists and ex-pats as well.

    Depends on where you're going, dress accordingly. Club wear would be most appropriate. If you're a foreigner you can get away with anything though.

  • Interesting clientele, good drinks, good entertainment. Not as self-consciously upscale as the Makati clubs.

    Informal but chic. Too hot for jackets in Manila in general but designer labels much in evidence.

    Malate: By The Baywalk

  • Nothing really compares the experience if 'ur in Malate especially the Baywalk and Remedios Circle. One can simply take the options of enjoyment, from fine dining, street party, ballroom dancing, live bands and acoustic jam, ktv or watching the night passes-by while drinking the finest beers or wines with your friends.

    From formal to casual to rugged type, shirts, jeans etc....we're in a democratic country. As long as you can pay your bills, it doesn't matter anyway.

    Malate is the best place for going out. You have a lot of bar and pub, especially bars with live local bands, it 's a nice place to drink some beers and meet Filipino people.

    Some bar have dress code, but not a lot ask us dress specially
