Kanakbai Resort in Dahican, Mati

I am not a beach person, but if I were to visit one beach over and over again, it would be Dahican in Mati, Davao Oriental. The reason why I’m in love with Dahican is the gorgeous yet relatively deserted beach coupled with the very modern amenities of Kanakbai Resort.

First, look at the shoreline…

So tranquil and quiet. And yes, a bit deserted. This is right in front of Kanakbai Resort. Only a few minutes walk away from one of the most exciting surfing spots in the country.

TGIF Celebrates 2 Years in Davao City

TGIF

TGIF

TGI Fridays Davao has been serving great food and hosting great moments for 2 years. And they are celebrating in a big way.

The tradition began in Manhattan in 1965 when Alan Stillman opened T.G.I. Friday’s. It was a ploy “to meet Pan Am stewardesses.” We all know it’s just more than that.

TGIF has became a place for family and friends to gather to have good food, drink up some exciting cocktails, and exchange chit chat. At lunchtime and afternoons, families go to TGIF together to celebrate birthdays, graduations, and other milestones. When the sun goes down, bartenders mix up the best concoctions for couples out on a date or groups of friends out to have a good time.

They have numerous branches all over the world, with 14 branches in the Philippines. One branch is here in Davao City at Abreeza Ayala Mall.
