Maybe I caught them on better days these days or they've gotten a bit more life. For the most part it's the same, but seems a bit more lively. There were zumba classes and various other small shows in the central atrium which were fun to watch. I think the Sun Star Mall isn't a bad way to spend some leisure time though. Lots of small restaurant chains to grab lunch.

I spent a lot of time here. As soon as you walk into the mall, it doesn't feel like you're in the Philippines anymore. The canal was nice to see during the day and at night. You can even take a gondola through the canal. They also have an area where you can feed pigeons seeds. They have a lot of the stores and the restaurants that we have in the US. I was joking around saying that I traveled 7200 miles to eat at a Denny's in the Philippines. Lol. And you know I had to hit up the Uniqlo here! Will I be back? Of course. Especially if I stay at the same Airbnb. I'll see you when I see you Venice Grand Canal Mall!

The Venice Grand Canal Mall is a large lifestyle center located in Taguig, Philippines…read more The Venice Grand Canal Mall should be viewed within the context of a master planned development. Encircling this mall are apartments, condos and office towers. The mall offers a lot: a supermarket; bookstores; fast food and casual dining restaurants; a multi-screen movie theater; spaces for dance and play--and a lot of retail shopping. You can also buy tickets for a gondola ride or rent a swan boat. This location provided an opportunity for me to people watch; examine products and brands unfamiliar to me; and to price compare goods in the PHL, versus back home. It was interesting.

Glitzy Shopping Mall in Pasay [MANILA Philippines]…read more Across the NAIA Terminal 3 is the Newport World Resorts and this very nice mall with high-end shops for the high rollers and the jet-setters. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little bit but the stores do look fancy: Longines, Pandora, LaCoste, Tissot, Bocu, Marks & Spencer. Honestly I wasn't paying much attention to the shops but more of the restaurants like Wolfgang's Steakhouse. There is also a casino and a movie theater inside the mall. I like this mall also because not only is it pleasing to the eyes but it's less crowded. If you have a lot of money to blow by all means shop till you drop, otherwise, I prefer dropping my money at the Mall of Asia (or even Divisoria) LoL Instagram: @newportmall_ Review #3304

Prices are cheaper especially at the kiosks; you can find separates for P100 and shoes for P200. My favorite discount stores are American Bazaar and Japan Home Centre. You can find THE BEST money exchange here: no id required nor paperwork to fill out. It's located on the second floor at the back of the mall. They have a Little Free Library near the concierge desk, just look for the red phone booth (like the kind you find in the UK). There's paid parking and a transportation terminal that's across the street which is accessible by a foot bridge. Don't forget to check out all the restaurants outside at the back of the mall.

A very welcome change is the complex built by Robinson's Land collectively called Summit Ridge. Aside from the hotel, it's a very convenient stop as the shopping or mall area has several restaurants like Gilligan's, Razon's, Shakey's, Hap Chan, Starbucks, etcetera. There are also specialty stores at the second level for other needs. What I like most about Summit Ridge is that there's a supermarket (Robinson's, ofcourse) where we can get last minute or emergency stuff we fail to bring to an out of town trip. There's also several stalls (tiangge) in the open area selling an assortment of items from clothes, shoes, souvenir items and even delicacies. For those who do not necessarily intend to purchase anything and just need a toilet break, you'll be glad to know that theirs is quite spacious and kept relatively clean most of the time.

Seriously, where else can you get authentic Thai food for less than a hundred pesos? Sen Lek Thai in the foodcourt is one of the best Thai places I've tried. If you're more into Korean food, Arisoo is a restaurant towards the back that I was also able. My favorite though is the cold taho at one of the Japanese groceries here, I forget the name. It's basically cold taho with toppings of your choice, for around fifty pesos for a big bowl. It's my secret pick me up. Don't tell anyone, okay?

It's not a market in the usual sense. I haven't seen any wet produce like meat or fish, though I'm sure there's an area in there somewhere. What I have seen are stores selling clothing - mostly overruns or surpluses of major brands, stores selling shoes, stores selling appliances, and stores selling miscellaneous items like mason jars and the like. You also have, of course, the pet center, and the SM supermarket. The best part, I think, are the foreign groceries where you can get Japanese or Korean ingredients dirt-cheap.
