Coming of Age: Zamboanga City

It's about time. They are beginning to construct new buldings. They have neglected the progress of this city for so long and people are just relying on miracles to make development happen. With thoughts of a mall in most of everyone's wishlist. It is really still a way long long time before that happens. Meanwhile we just have to content ourselves with small successes.

Two years ago the first coffee shop hit the scene. People thought it will be a flop but since then coffee shops are sprouting slowly like orchids, rare but they are there.

Finally, a place serving gourmet italian and continental dishes. Pizza parlors have come and go. Fine dining restaurants have closed their doors. All because consumers are enslaved to the taste of jollibee and grilled seafood. Let's just say that was the taste of Davao consumers ten years ago. That is how behind the city is.

But bravo, one local restaurant "Country Chicken" have decided to reinvent itself by changing the menu featuring puttanesca, fabada, four cheese pizza. I don't know how long this dream will last. But hopefully it does for a long time.
