I have been on business trip in cubao, metro manila. Suffice to say I would dislike to be there again. 2 weeks there was enough, I dont think I could stand for 2 years. Traffic was hell even at 6am. Food and expenses after currency conversion is just like malaysia to me.

After saying this last 2 years... I will be posted to Manila again for 2 months this year hahaha dem

Anybody know any low-mid range restaurants that can swipe AMEX card? Location makati.

AMEX wasn't popular in Philippine. If you have time you can try Mendokoro Ramenba, their pork is good. Average Spend per person around 500 Peso (Expensive XD)
Note: peak hours will need to queue for 2 hours + for your food. smile.gif

Wow, that must be hard for you to find food here. Most of the restaurant I tried doesnt accept Amex.

You may go "The Pantree" if you are looking for not so expensive & taste Ok food. (Normally I eat thai food there, budget around 200+-)

Inside Greenbelt 5 Level 3, there is one Toast Box (Singapore) if you are looking for Malaysian Food

You can download "Eatigo" app here too, it shows nearest restaurant with discount if you book with the app.

I am currently working in KL earning 7k and I was being offered 120k PHP for a role in Manila. I personally thinking it's way too low for me to move from KL to Philippines to have a 30% bump on Malaysia pay and planning to reject my offer (for a regional manager position).

Is there any experienced expat have any comments on this offer? I highly believed that I am getting low-balled by the company.

Edit: I rejected the offer and they came back to me offering me 3800 USD 200k PHP. Got low-balled so hard initially. Still the new offer after tax the amount will be roughly 11k myr, I think I'll search again.
