Hey Jay, just a suggestion: try riding a jeepney or a tricycle to get around when you’re outside BGC and saying what’s up to the locals. Maybe practice that Tagalog with them! When you get to Intramuros, swing by Saint Agustin church and museum and ride a calesa through the district. Also, check out the Rockwell Center in Makati if you get a chance. Thats where my family and I stay whenever I’m in town. The Power Plant mall there is pretty swanky.

[@Jaycation]

Love rockwell. I stayed by powerplant in 2018

[@azzurrin889]

The thing that's cool about the Philippines is how much they love traditional malls. Wish they were still popular here in the USA>

[@Jaycation]

I love malls!! Haha

[@apinezstats2237]

Malls in the Philippines are a one-stop shop. It has everything from churches, barbers/salons, arcade to groceries and department stores, to name a few.

[@edwardsantos9517]

Great video, Jay. Thanks for always putting them out. I know it's a lot of work, but I've been following you for almost 6 months and love it.

[@Jaycation]

I appreciate you watching and sticking with me!

[@momcation9786]

Venice Mall, Uptown Mall are so cool! Love all the restaurants & shops there. Thanks for showing us these wonderful places in the PH. You’re the best Jaycation! Thanks in advance for ur pasalubong!❤️🥰

Zzzheqs

[@latruce]

Bread Talk was my favorite.. I remember it as an 85°C type of store

[@Jaycation]

Haha ive never even thought of trying it

[@whimsicalhamster88]

Seems like they built a little America in The Philippines. If you told me this was Chicago, I’d believe you.

[@Jaycation]

Good call

[@jicalzad]

i haven't been back to the Philippines since the early 90s when i was a kid. Back then, i recall the traffic being a nightmare, and no one seemed to drive in any one single lane. Turning on almost any road also seemed like a "free for all." From the looks of things, the traffic is probably one of the few things that's stayed the same, lol.

[@Jaycation]

Nothing has changed lol

[@bobblebunny219]

Awesome 👍 you had me laughing when you said the pig in a hoodie looked like your little bro 😂 great exploration video. Like mommy G, like son with that facial, looked good.

[@Jaycation]

Haha i wish i had that pic of brocation

[@Firestorm550x]

Hi Jay great video! One of my favourite parts of the video was watching you eat fish and chips, that battered fish looks so good. Here in England a lot of Brits will have that every Fridays for their dinner. Furthermore, I hope Momcation will like her Miniso pig. The Miniso pigs are so cute! Thanks for sharing Jay❤️

[@Jaycation]

Gelo pig is cute haha

[@yvonneacosta2539]

Those malls are really nice. Wish out malls looked like that. Think I want to move there thanks to Jaycation. Mango is my #1, peach is my #2. Had no NH idea Kenny Rogers Roasters still existed. Wow! Facials are very relaxing, usually.

[@johnnier.o.d4746]

you should watch "momduty vlogs" .... i think she's a mexican american married to a fil-am guy,they lived in bgc ..... you might get a lot of ideas since she vlogs over there .....

[@Jaycation]

Haha facial was worth it

[@sharhodz]

The model/Actress is Anne Curtis and she is married to Erwan Huesaff! Great Video!

[@Jaycation]

Oh schnapp i know those names 🤣

[@carrel85]

Uptown Palazzo / Uptown Park Suites 2 is where i will be staying next month! Super Stoked for it!

[@Jaycation]

Get ready for it

[@amyshaffner]

The malls are so nice, modern and clean. Your skin looks great! 😎😃

[@Jaycation]

I appreciate that!

[@TyraTyra-xh5wd]

Wow nice place jay.. theres a lot of good places in the philippines.

[@Jaycation]

So many!

[@jessicaduyan7661]

Oh woooow...🎉🎉🎉 visit also Century Mall in Makati Ave...theres Trumo tower there hahaha

[@MASON90813]

The glam spots are great. I suggest gettin to showcase some of the street food carts/ carinderias…spots were locals eat. Great value and 100% more authentic. 🤟🏽

[@Jaycation]

Great suggestion!

[@teddyprieto676]

Hi welcome to Manila, so good to see you here. Btw, you can also check out a newly opened mall in Greenhills San Juan MM. enjoy your stay

[@Jaycation]

Just went today!

[@rickmiller8614]

I’m watching all of you vlogs and hoping you’ll get out to some of the beaches. My friend golfs there and says the beaches can’t be beat.

[@johnnier.o.d4746]

i'm spoiled 'bout white sand beaches plus warm weather bcuz the island where i grew up in p.i is known for white sand beaches & a little bit of nature ........ but it got crowded now bcuz it became a touristy place since the 2K era began rollin' ......

[@Jaycation]

In due time

[@Jaycation]

Yup

[@MegaworldLifestyleTV]

Hi Jay! We hope you enjoyed your visit at Venice Grand Canal and Uptown Mall :)

[@Jaycation]

Love these malls! Im also currently in Boracay Newcoast!

[@Hicks-g1m]

I've been there before it's a really cool place 😎 I didn't know it was 3 floors I need to go back there when I go to Manila again

[@carrel85]

Suggesting Poblacion in Makati. More of a Filipino local party scene with lots of bars, clubs and of course restaurants

[@Jaycation]

Partied too hard there i 2018

[@TheOnlyOneStanding8079]

This mall is good enough to have a wedding reception party in🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@ElmerAgcaoili-z2n]

what a place bro?immaculate,that's what it is?

[@Jaycation]

?

[@sleep.machine]

Jay, check out Mitsukoshi mall if you circle back to Uptown! Also try using a face cleanser with salicylic acid in it a couple times a week to keep them white heads at bay. 😅

[@Jaycation]

Thanks for the tips! Def will check out the japanese food hall

[@jamesanthony7013]

I def gotta go here

[@Jaycation]

[@TheHost345]

You should show them the choco butternut at dunkin 😍

[@Jaycation]

[@snowtyboy]

Can't believe they got buffalo wild wings there where you can only find them in the US.

[@Jaycation]

[@latruce]

Bench! Haha they told me to audition to model for Bench when I went lol

[@Jaycation]

Did u?

[@pat75]

How much is rent in BGC? Which place was built first? The Venice canal mall in BGC, or the Grand Canal Shops in Vegas? 🤔

[@traveling_emptynesters]

Rent varies from PHP 25k-200k+

[@Jaycation]

Haha good questions

[@Jaycation]

Not bad

[@GTX311]

Not sure if you know this but *BENCH/* or *bench/* of the Philippines (with slash) and *Bench.* of the UK (with period) are two different companies and brands. The Philippine company was founded 2 years before the UK one.

[@rodolfosoloria5730]

BGC before is part of Makati due to land disputes it was awarded to Taguig in the year 2022,McKinley is Taguig since the old days.The land disputes starts 1993 and finalized in the year 2022

[@frankiefernandez9225]

TAGUIG 👑👑👑🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🏆🏆🏆

[@Jaycation]

[@boltonfrayre19]

[@Jaycation]

[@nja_pda]

Hey Jay Can you try to go to Mega Mall in Ortigas area

[@Jaycation]

Passed by it today!

[@nja_pda]

@@Jaycation awesome

[@xericxonyoutube]

Remember back in the day, maybe 2008, we would go to Embassy @ The Fort (now BGC area). We got bottle service, table next to the DJ both and the bottles were only $40 or $50 each, we got so hammered. 😂

[@Jaycation]

I wish bottles were only $40-50 haha

[@awesomeadamfrom2099]

Awesome job jay drop a line

[@Jaycation]

My guyy

[@KhunPamela1963]

I stayed nearby the Venice Grand Canal Mall last October for one week so I ate here a lot. I wasn't that impressed by the shopping but it was beautifully decorated for the holidays. FYI St. Luke's Medical Center is recognized as one of the leading most respected healthcare institutions in the Philippines and are at par with the most advanced hospitals around the world. It is our designated hospital when we have duty travel in Manila. I think it's actually better than the hospitals we have in Hawaii.

[@Jaycation]

Yeah the shopping isnt that great there but tons of food

[@latruce]

Filipinos love Popeyes, I think it was voted best chicken over Jollibee

[@latruce]

Wait actually, it might have been KFC

[@Jaycation]

I prefer popeyes over jollibee

[@Jaycation]

Haha kfc bomb too

[@Bishop2g]

What kind of fish was that? Cod?

[@jeffboyrdeee]

Philippines content is no joke 🫰🏻🤌🏻

[@Jaycation]

Not messin around!

[@carrel85]

Xylo is a super upscale club that will feel like a Vegas club like XS Tryst etc.

[@Jaycation]

Nothing beats XS

[@omarsharriff9161]

Everything you see in the West and Europe , is here at BGC , Philippines . now open for business like Condos , apartment , hotels , mall , restaurants , sport center . etc . etc . thanks for the authorities of BGC , the Cayetanos .

[@GeneCampos]

I could tell before facial job and after wa-lah!😃

[@Jaycation]

It was great!

[@1takesituation]

Shakey's represent!

[@Jaycation]

I gotta have shakeys just to say i had it again lol

[@SLCJRG74]

hey Jaycation, love all your videos. the question i have is about the camera you used for this video, it seems it goes in focus and out of focus alot. just wondering if you notice too or its just the way you like to shoot the videos. thanks and keep being awesome>

[@dollyC18]

Hey Jay you should try some street food and some real Filipino food. I would love that content more. Thank you! Much love!

[@Jaycation]

Maybe

[@twoweeledsoto6072]

How are the prices in those mall restaurants? Looks interesting.

[@Jaycation]

Depends on what part of the mall youre shopping in! U can find some deals there though

[@MR-jt2rh]

Hi Jay, how’s the weather over there?

[@Jaycation]

Not bad! 78-91 degrees

[@trismaster]

1:00 "They try to tell us we're TONG YANG..."

[@Jaycation]

[@daisygonzales4923]

[@TheHost345]

[@traveling_emptynesters]

You can catch a FREE bus ride from Uptown BGC to Venice Grand Canal Mall!😁

[@Jaycation]

Pretty cheap

[@Jaycation]

Good tip!

[@manangjen]

I got food poisoning from a Shakey’s in PI before. I was in the hospital for 3 days. I never ate it eversince. 😂

[@Jaycation]

I got food poisoning from jollibee once 😭

[@miggymanuel8041]

I’m going to visit in May 2025

[@jakexake2940]

Sadly, in very advanced countries like the USA, Western Europe and Japan, malls have died out. Online ordering took over. This is because in these advanced nations time is money, further, they have a very well established TRUST worthy mailing postage system that ensures your order is delivered to you un-tampered.

[@iris089]

It's the mall going culture that makes the malls alive. Shopping in person, dining in and watching movies is a past time in the PH.

[@harleymarie3954]

psst. the real venice isnt in las vegas :D

[@theultimate1221]

I find it funny--and cringy--to see vlogs by foreigners getting supposedly mesmerized by the beauty of BGC when many of them came from far richer countries with more impressive skylines and central business districts (CBDs). Is it an example of Pinoy-baiting? Or they just set a very low standards for the Philippines being a poor country so they act as if pleasantly surprised and impressed by BGC or other CBDs in the country?

[@pingyu5141]

get out of your low life.
