FOOD TOURISM

1. SAY GOODBYE to the OLD MANOKAN COUNTRY (Relive old memories and good times)

Manokan Country has said farewell to its heydays. In the 1980s, the Bacolod Government built a complex in a once serene seaside area. The reclaimed land  soon became a magnet for people who wanted to eat at the various stalls. It was the birth of of the authentic Bacolod chicken inasal industry that would spawn a festival. However, as time moved on, the place was left unimproved and deteriorating. The Bacolod government is back once again not to demolish it but promised to modernize it with the help of an external partner. Facing many oppositions, the project stalled. Soon, the city government signed a Moa with SM to rehabilitate the place with modern structures. As the mall is just adjacent to the Manokan Country, the two will be a synergy of complexes and business opportunities:
