Farnecio Eatery in Manila, worth the trip?

fmd_goodFarnecio Eatery · #food #eatery #manila
I'm visiting Manila in 2026 and Farnecio Eatery keeps coming up in food threads. What's the go-to order there and roughly what does a meal cost? Also, is it cash only?

Getting a liquor licence for a bar in Manila 2026

fmd_good1246 Bar and Restaurant · #manila #liquor
Moving over soon and hoping to open a small bar, but I'm stuck on the liquor licence part. Do I sort the barangay clearance and mayor's permit first, or does the liquor permit come before those? hones… Moving over soon and hoping to open a small bar, but I'm stuck on the liquor licence part. Do I sort the barangay clearance and mayor's permit first, or does the liquor permit come before those? honestly not sure where to even start with teh paperwork.

The order is usually barangay clearance, then mayor's permit, with the liquor licence handled by the city licensing office after. Budget extra time for the BIR registration and the zoning check on your address, since a bar near schools or churches can get flagged.

pretty sure barangay clearance comes first then mayor's permit, liquor licence after those, but id double check with the city hall peeps
