Losing Cakewalker's

Several months ago, Lead Character and his friends found out one of their favorite hangouts, Pod5, had closed down. Pod5 was phenomenal not exactly for the karaoke but for one of its signature drinks, Blue Imagination. It was tasty and heavenly and so strong that halfway through a pitcher, one of you might start dancing to the beats coming from Formo downstairs, and another might be going on a drunk-texting rampage, and others might even start leaving to look for regrettable one-night stands.

Until now, Lead Character is still grieving it. There was news that went around, though, that Pod5 had transferred to Club Ultima, but that is yet to be confirmed.

The other day, Lead Character found out that another favorite hangout of his and his friends had closed down.


Yes, the coziest coffee shop in town, despite their so-so beverages and sluggish Wi-Fi, is no more.

What are they taking away from Lead Character next? This???

NO!!!!!

    Definitely not Numero Doce. It has a very strong niche market and brand position. Haha!

    Sayang ang Cakewalkers. Wala na pod ko mahuna-hunaan na cozy cafe.

    Oh, noooo! When did this happen? I used to go there all the time and just chill in the upstairs/loft area. This is terrible. All the baristas and even the owner were so nice to all the customers.

    I'm so sorry to hear it's gone. =(

    you were also a cakewalker, sitting pretty??? did you catch me and my friends there, by any chance? until now we're very curious about your identity. there was also one time, if i remember correctly, when we talked about you there... about your blog and your refreshing command of the english language and how we envy you... did you hear us talking about you then? :P

    Hahaha! Buang. Wala, oi! Wala ko kita nimo didto. Ambot. I wish we could've met, though. I've never met another Cebu blogger. =) But around the time leading up to when I left (March of last year), I didn't go there a lot. I used to go with a friend of mine, but he and I drifted apart, and so I would go there less and less.

    But yeah, around 2009 and 2010 I was there almost everyday. (Kung ka kita ka'g kiat nga babae na mag sige'g yawit bahin agnosticism and her latest infatuation, ug nag sige'g panigarilyo sa gawas, ako to. Haha.) There and the Bo's right near it, and at one point also the Gloria Jeans across the street. Is Gloria Jeans still there?

    Anyways, glad you're back to blogging; it's been a while! =)
