Manila 4

Casino: Located in the EDSA International Entertainment Complex. About the same size as Pit Stop. It is the most intimate. You're closer to the girls and have the easiest time 'contacting' them (if it is hard anyway). "Almost all of them were fine fine fine. I barfined 'L' and paid the 900P to the bar and 2000P to her for short time. That's the going rate. All I can say is WOW. This girl was the best lover I had on the whole trip, and was worth the extra cash. But not as innocent looking or acting as the AC girls, to which I am addicted. We did EVERYTHING, and I mean everything...and I was a happy camper." Niacin65. "There were a few cute girls in here but the GRO's were on us immediately. This always turns me off and I am ready to leave before my first beer." Mark T. "A great layout for the new and old. A rather easy place to relax, that is if the candy girl, chicken man, flower girl, photographer, and fruit girl don't make you crazy before you have the chance to ask bartender Herman (classy guy) for a drink. The mamasans are cool and have a good sense of humor. Video DJ is great and the gals dance to the tunes rather well. Small dance floor but effective. This club offers the highest energy among the clubs at the complex." Hollywood Harv (01/2002)

Jamilla's: Located in the EDSA International Entertainment Complex. Go-go bar at the location of the former Esperanza karaoke bar. "Great place if you like sloppy, overweight women. Even the air smells bad." Catmonman

"The EDSA International Entertainment Complex is situated on the corner of EDSA Extension and Roxas Boulevard. Inside are 6 girlie bars. It seems to go in cycles and in terms of girls different bars are hot on different nights." mjibbo. Opens at 6:00 PM. "A new bar (Jamilla's) has opened next door to Firehouse / Pit Stop, replacing the karaoke joint that was there. Opening night was Friday (1 SEP 00). Didn't have a chance to pop in as I had my hands full in Pit Stop, so to speak." F.A. "I was being quoted 5,000 pesos on P. Burgos street in Makati and 2000 short time at the EDSA Complex." Santini. "Manila-EDSA Complex P900 plus girls scam P1000-2000 and run out after first service." Perry. "Stick to these bars and (Chaos, Visions below) you'll get the standard P1000 barfine and girl tip of P1500 to P2000." Brent (02/2002). "We went to the EDSA complex and outside of a jap invasion the place was all business. Drinks were double the price. Many of the places had you buy a MINIMUM of two ladies drinks at double the Angeles prices. I watch my friend go into negotiations with his girl. Yes they wanted you to 'buy the package, instead of renting it'. Seeing guys fork out 2-5,000 pesos AFTER barfining I said no thanks, went back to the hotel and slept alone!" Sparticus (06/2002). "You can actually get them to serve your girl a 'Regular Drink' which costs p175, instead of that RIPOFF p295 mango juice. Just ask the girl, she will oblige in most cases. Most guys tip from p1000-p1500 for EDSA girls, unless you happen to be from Japan, or Taiwan that is, they have this 'thing' about paying more. Most EDSA girls are over at LA Cafe on odd nights off anyway. And there you NEVER spend more than p1500 TOTAL, usually p1000 net, net. Just dont talk money in advance. If THEY do, move on to the next girl. Slip their tip in their back pocket in the morning and what you give is what they get. Done deal." drummer (10/2003)
Juliana: "Located only one block from the EDSA International Complex towards the Baclaran subway station. Juliana is located on the third floor above a Korean Restaraunt (1st floor) Health Spa and Sauna (2nd Floor). Singing and dancing all night with professional and charming translaters in English, Korean, and Japanese. This establishment, like the Juliana in A.C. is a great fun and a safe alternative for entertainment in Manila. The price tag is rather steep, similar to Infinity or Pegasus, but if you got the bucks, go for it!" Hollywood Harv (01/2002)

Chaos: "Vixens then Axions now Chaos is inmho is still the best bar in Pasay. Sometimes there are about 200 to 250 girls, 80 of which are dancers. I say sometimes because Chaos is one of these bars that is very patchy in terms of girls. Sometimes you can go in there and be surrounded by a plethora of stunning women, other times it seems like the city kennels. You just have to strike it lucky on the night. The best time to hit it is about 10.30PM." mjibbo. "Had a great time in Chaos with the girls being a lot of fun." Mark T. "A good alternative if you're on Roxas and stuck in traffic." Hollywood Harv (01/2002). "Chaos is still the main attraction in Pasay City." Brent (02/2002)

Visions: "Another bar sometimes worth a visit is Visions. This is situated on the service road (same as Chaos) but on the other side of Buendia (now called Gil Puyat). Unfortunately this is not a patch on the old Visions number 1 in Ermita and number2 in the food and Karaoke complex. However there are about 50 girls here and sometimes you can find a diamond in the rough so to speak. INMHO it is worth checking out." mjibbo

Miss Universe: "Miss Universe is one of Manila's girls-in-gowns places, ala Lexus, Pegasus etc...Here's what I saw in my drunken state, so dont flame me if I got some the details a bit inaccurate: Entrance fee: walk in zero-170 pesos, taxi 250-500 pesos as taxi drivers get a commission depending on how much of a newbie they think you are. Ok, now you are inside: First thing they ask you is: Who is your mamasan? If you havent been there before, whatever you do, don't tell them that it's your first time. Just make up a name, or pretend you forgot and start describing an older generic filipina lady. Anyway, you are now shown to a table. Depending on your mamasan answer, you are in front, or way over on the side. This place is HUGE, about 3 times the size of Blue Nile. Looking at the stage, about 40X30 and about 2 feet high, you will now see 4-10 girls walking about runway style in gowns with number tags. Fridays and Saturdays you can expect to see about 350 girls there. As the parade continues they loose more and more clothes, accomplished by walking to the rear of the stage for a moment, and reappearing. Some get naked, some topless. After one or two groups finish this walking around, you usually see a more bold superstar. She is a show dancer, and eventually gets naked and does the spilts HARD, and other dumb ass moves that she thinks men like. Ok so now that you have seen lets say #45 and you like her, you can "table" her (call her over) for 600-990 pesos per hour or 90 minutes depending on her popularity and your mamasan, for conversation. If you REALLY like her, you can take her into one of the VIP rooms in the back. 4000 pesos, (2 hours?) and any funny stuff you negotiate with her on top of that. Barfines are 5000-10,000 depending on the girl. Models more, GROs less. Ok you get the general idea, so now if this is your THING, dont go there. Go to Lexus on Timog Ave instead. Ask for Mommy Christie. Better looking girls, cheaper prices, and no minmum charge for going to the VIP room if you have taken the girl you have tabled. Tabeling a girl is 750 for the first hour, 650 for additional for solo show babes, GROs are 650/550. The girl will ask a flat 2k for extra sevices in VIP. Barfines are 7500 pesos before midnight, 6500 after. They also offer, dot one, dot two, and dot three services for your VIP room experience. Dot-one: Girl wears a see-through outfit without underwear, Dot-two: Girl wears only panties, Dot-three: Girl wears only a smile.....but just take her there after tabeling her, and as long as you drink and/or eat about 1000 pesos consumable you wont have to pay any room charge. Ok, now you see at these prices, most guys that visit Angeles wont be rushing to go to either of these places soon, but it's worth checking out, if only you sit there and drink without any other "purchases". BTW, take a look around the room while in the club. Yes, that's right, it that Senator, that guy from San Miguel Beer board of directors, that actor what's his name, that DJ, and a lot of other official filipino dudes off-duty. Not to mention the plethora of Korean and Chinese businessmen with money coming out of their ears, or expense accounts." Drummer (04/2003)

ERMITA
"In general, Ermita is a dump. The streets and sidewalks are filthy and broken. Fields Avenue is like Rodeo Drive compared to Ermita. Beggars follow you and are practically everywhere and families sleep in the streets. Con artists freely roam the streets and stand right outside your hotel entrance to try to nab you, even to the point of following you for several blocks. Should you be foolish enough to let them lead you anywhere, you will quickly find your guide joined by several other male associates. Do yourself a favor. Avoid them at all costs. Don't even engage them in conversation. Just smile and politely say: 'no thank you' and continue walking. These hoods are not restricted to night-time, but are on the prowl even at 1:00pm in the afternoon." Norman (04/2003)

LA Café: 1429 M.H. del Pilar St. cor. Romero Salas St. Open 24 hours. Go after 10:00 PM when the disco upstairs is open. "Located on M.H. del Pilar, the old Lucy's Diner opposite the old Firehouse which is now a skeletal remains. No bar fine. Girls negotiate P1000 and up." Perry. "This has some nice sexy bar girls during the day. No bar fine, only freelancers. You can arrange a short time for P500 to P1000 for the entire evening. Not bad but the quality is poor." Brent (02/2002).

"The local meat market is the famous LA Café. This place is two floors, each divided into two large areas. They have great live bands that play regularly and really know how to liven the place up. The music is a perfect mix of classic rock and newer popular music, thankfully devoid of that annoying teenybopper techno-crap. LA Café is open 24 hours and is without exaggeration wall to wall girls. They are all freelancers and come in all shapes, sizes, looks, and age groups. There is something here for everyone. And the best part is, they are all hungry. There is about a 25 to 1 girl to guy ratio here. The stunners and younger guys usually pick each other up quite quickly in this place, but there is still plenty to go around. If you are looking for the same sweet, cuddly innocence of the AC girls, you might be mildly disappointed. The girls here are seasoned pros and are mostly about business. You will still have a great time with them and can experience a real sweetheart, but most are professional prostitutes who come there every night to pick up guys. You might discover the odd college/university girl there for the night to make a one-time influx of cash to pay for a new cell phone, but these girls tend to stick out and therefore are very choosy as to whom they agree to go with. It's a fun game to play. LA Café was so addictive, I found myself spending most of Friday night, Saturday, and Saturday night there. I never had less than three girls seated with me at any time, although if a girl just sitting and having fun with you spots another customer giving them looks that seriously shows he is interested in taking her, the girl will move on quickly. They are not here for a good time, they are here to make money. You can just park yourself on a barstool, lean back and observe the fun. It is poetry in motion to observe professional freelances at work picking up guys. They have four or five pool tables on both floors, that often get busy and very smoky. The asking prices for short-times are 1000 to 2000, depending on how stuck-up the girl is and is she likes you.. Long-times are mainly agreed upon by the 8 out of 10 looking girls who don't want a high-rotation. This usually runs 2000 to 3000 depending on the girl, and if she likes you. Drinks range from 60 peso to 200 for the pricier drinks. There are no LDs here. A word of advice; if you gush and slobber over these girls, the price will be higher if they sense you really want them. It pays to be somewhat stuck-up and aloof yourself. Giving them a taste of their own medicine seems to get you more respect. I watched a ten out of ten bombshell refuse a dozen guys, after which it so happened she sat two stools away from me at the bar. After all the guys gawking at her and myself ignoring her for 30 minutes, and myself refusing 6 or 7 girls who approached me, she finally slid over and started a conversation. Her discovering that I lived in AC and knew the ropes seemed to impress her, but I let her make the first move by asking me for a drink and eventually getting to the topic of where I was staying and when I was planning to head back to my hotel. She ended up leaving with me - no price or duration discussed, and stayed till the next late afternoon. She was quite a sight walking around with me in Robinson's Mall. Upon dismissing her, I asked her how much she wanted, to which she hugged me and replied the famous: 'its up to you', so I handed her 3000 (worth every peso) and she was very happy. She probably could have made double that doing a few short times the night before, but I guess I was just lucky. The staff in LA Café are very cute, but there is no policy on taking them out. I could have had one of the sweetest pool-rackers, but I would have to have waited till the end of her shift at 4:00am. Sorry, my hormones couldn't survive that long. I ended up staying at the Cherry Blossom deluxe room for 1800 or so peso including a light breakfast. I have read some bad reports about this place, but I personally loved it there. Nice clean deluxe suite, huge shower. The décor is ever so slightly dated, but I was very happy there. It's right beside Robinson's Mall and ten minutes walk from LA Café. You could also stay at the Swagman on Flores Street, but the rooms are quite shabby there for the same price as the Cherry Blossom. LA Café was fun as hell. I highly recommend it." Norman (02/2003). "LA Cafe was tons of fun and I will certainly be making a return there next time. I highly recommend checking it out. We stayed at the Iseya Hotel down the block and for 1100 pesos, it was fair. It's all you really need if your just in town for a few nights." Jimmy R. Regina (04/2003)
Amazonia: The old Firehouse, complete with the rooms upstairs.

QUEZON CITY
"If anyone's in Manila & up for something 100% safe & different check out Quezon Ave/Quezon City it's about 20-25 mins riding the MRT for around php15 from Makati. The last trip is around 10:00 p.m. so a good time to roll in... Just take the Quezon Ave exit then take a taxi for php35 up Quezon Ave let me tell you about the bars.

Note: All the bars on Quezon Ave are bunched next together so it's hard to miss them.
Stardust: Located at exactly 1182 Quezon Ave. Q.C. This place may look casual when you walk in but when it goes off it===>GOES OFF The bunnies are extremely cute so don't fall in love. When all the ladies hit the stage they all get fully naked, play with themselves or each other completely and stick their pussy in your face getting up on top of you and yes that is all for just being a customer so FREE. Of course they try to promote ladies drinks but how many girls does it take 2 stick their pussy in your face. Last night I had around 12 get ontop of me so well worth the money for the show. Entrance is php125 that includes a beer and beers after that are php45. This is probably the best show or most graphic out of all bars on Quezon ave. IMO So if your up for a show check this place out. (Kicks THE BOSS's arse in Makati along with anything on Pasay, Sariling Atin, Athena, Lexus 10X's.)

You and Me: 2nd choice place (New management as of last night) This is just across the street from Stardust Php75 entrance & php60 per beer. The bunnies are extremely cute & get fully naked including coming off stage & getting on top of you. Great show...The bunnies are extremely professional in this place. Lapdancing takes place off & on but not every 5mins like @ Stardust. Definitely a place to check out and if you want a BJ or the works you can pick a bunny out from the lineup take her in the VIP room 4 around php1000 and yes DO HER. (It happens all the time there.)
Mystique: This is located just a few bars down from Stardust & is a good show as well but not as good IMO as YOU AND ME however they have interesting shows here kind of twisted in a way for example. They have the cigarette contest where 3 or so bunnies get naked on stage and smoke out of their pussy, the first girl 2 finish her cig wins... Hey there is some talent in there.) Worth a check out but doesn't really go off like STARDUST but a good show. So if this is what your after something different for a night or possibly more because you can talk these bunnies into meeting you @ Padis Point around the corner on Timog Ave after. So as I was saying if your after a good show and don't want 2 spend a fortune doing it in a very 100% safe area definitely take the MRT that runs along Edsa to Quezon Ave and do the bunny hop show thing. The girls are higly rated in these bars. I hate doing comparisons bunny 4 bunny but overall I would have 2 say they are up there in the 8-10's or equivalent 2 a rare catch in Angeles... Happy Hunting." THE MATRIX (06/2003)

La Legende: "I frequented La Legende in Quezon Ave in January, once you get there forget the bar on the first floor and go to the second floor (massage parlor) and see Uncle Frank. The private room costs P1100 before 8:00 PM for an hour and P1500 after 8:00 PM. You will be taken to a viewing room where you can see all these cuties and make your selection of your "masseu". After making the selection, you will be escorted to your room and would be given a key to the lockable night table. Lock your valuables and keep the key within your sight as you will be given a shower. The model will arrive and immediately give you a shower after getting undressed. Use your imagination. When I was there, I never had a massage but always made the models moan. Tip is expected between P500-P1500 depending on the services and hospitality you received. As for me, I gave P700 to a newbie that didn't know how and claims to be a newbie and as much as P2000 to Vanessa who gave me the best around the world BJ and kept me hard for an hour. I find this place working out better for me as there is no string attached. No pasalubongs, no ladies drink, no bar fine, no text, no nonsense. Just a mere quick oil change." gonzaldp (01/2004)
