Food and Fukien

As San Carlos City has grown and expanded this past decade, so has the number of restaurants increased. With only a dozen or so back then, the number has about doubled since then. From the simplest fare to a full-course dinner, locals and out-of-towners alike are now offered a wider variety to choose from. 
Being the first of a series of articles about where to eat and what to expect, this writer will attempt to showcase what San Carlos City has to offer in terms of culinary delights from a layman's point of view.

‘Health is wealth’

Nahimong pagya sa usa ka customer sa usa ka hotel dinhi sa siyudad sa San Carlos sa dihang mi check-in kini siya. Foreigner lagi ug perti ka selan kini sila basta ang kalimpyo na ang hisgutan. Mipa-book ug dayun kining sulod sa iyahang kwarto. Sa dihang miguwa nahinabi niya ang tag-iya sa maong hotel dinhi sa San Carlos.

Meeting sa SP ug SCBI ra

Daghan na karon nga taga San Carlos ang nag-ingon nga ila na lang kuno pasulabihon ang bagyo kon itandi niining bahong baklag nga ilang gipanimaho halos kada adlaw ug gabie. Ang ilang rason kini kunong bagyo agi ra pero, kining baho sa tibuok San Carlos nga gikan sa ethanol plant halos matag adlaw ug gabie na. Ang dili lang makapanimaho kadto lang tingaling tawo nga walay lungag ang ilong.

Putting the public first

I was most surprised when some of our San Carlos policemen told me that they worked continuous shifts of 24 hours. I could not believe that they could stay alert and efficient for this length of time, even with periodic meal breaks. Either they must find ways of sleeping on the job or they must be like walking zombies by the shift end. The policemen complained that this was true and that it was not a system which had much support among the rank and file.
