Zeny's Fastfood and Restaurant in Manila 2026?

fmd_goodZeny's Fastfood and Restaurant · #restaurant #manila #ermita
I'll be in Manila for a week in 2026 and Zeny's Fastfood and Restaurant keeps coming up. What's good there and roughly what do I pay for a meal? Is it worth a detour from where I'm staying near Ermita… I'll be in Manila for a week in 2026 and Zeny's Fastfood and Restaurant keeps coming up.

idk bout zeny's specifically but ermita to wherever it is might be a trek tbh. maybe google the address first & decide if ur up for it

yeah the address matters more than the hype. last i checked zeny's is out in sampaloc, so from ermita that's a jeep + lrt ride, not a quick walk. a basic meal there runs maybe 80 to 150 pesos, carinderia prices.

sampaloc's right, the lrt drops u near espana so it's the jeepney leg after that eats the time, budget 40 mins each way

Fair point on the fare, but the jeepney leg will set you back another 13 pesos or so.

Googling it is solid advice, though the trek's worth it if you're already heading north on the LRT.

Manila dating 2026: where do people actually meet?

fmd_goodFe-Bulous Canteen · #coffee
I'm moving to Manila later this year and trying to get a read on the dating scene before I land. Is it mostly apps, or do people still meet through friends and work? I keep hearing about casual coffee… I'm moving to Manila later this year and trying to get a read on the dating scene before I land. Is it mostly apps, or do people still meet through friends and work? I keep hearing about casual coffee spots like Fe-Bulous Canteen as low-pressure first date places, so curious how that usually goes.

Fe-Bulous works because it's cheap and you can bail after one coffee without it feeling like a failed date. I'd say apps get you the first meetup but friends-of-friends still carry most serious introductions, especially in Makati and BGC circles.

from what i've seen visiting, a lot of people meet through church groups & running clubs in bgc, plus the whole "mutual friend invites u to a birthday" thing. apps are big but the serious stuff often starts offline. idk, felt more organic than i expected

Birthday invites, yes. Running clubs less so, they skew expat.

Bar trivia nights and hobby groups around Quezon City tend to break the ice faster than apps ever will.
