honestly check out the weekly run clubs around BGC, theyre pretty social and way easier to slide into than random events.

yeah the run clubs are solid, but check the Salcedo Community Market on Saturdays too. people actually linger and chat over food there, way less intimidating than showing up cold to a run

Stopping by Mouthwatering Food Center next month on a budget trip. Which stalls are actually worth it and what should I expect to pay in 2026? Any must try dishes I shouldn't skip?

yeah the sisig is solid but grab the lechon kawali from the next stall over, 150 pesos and worth it over the drinks for sure

Agree on skipping drinks but the turon stall by the back exit is 20 pesos and worth saving room for.

Good call on skipping teh drinks, they're overpriced for what u get. But tbh the sisig portion got smaller when I was there, so maybe grab the lechon kawali too. Budget around 120 to 150 for a full meal.
