A nice place to go shopping with everything you would need under one roof.

A very good Supermarket, Department and Specialty Stores and many good restaurants and other places to eat. An extension to the mall has recently been opened.

TIP For foreigners wanting to purchase imported meat such as lamb and steak there is a freezer just across from the fresh meat section in the main supermarket. The selection varies from time to time.

In this fish market area you will see other process sold like meat, fruit and vegetables. From what I have observed this is the biggest food market in Tacloban

BUYING FRUIT

You will see fruit stalls all over different parts of Tacloban City. As I live out of the city in the Dulag area I have been purchasing fruit at the Love Renz Fruitstand for quite some time. I see some of upmarket hotels in the Tacloban buying fruit here. The location in Campetic on the way to Palo town proper. There are many fruit markets around Tacloban that are also very good.
You can eat healthy in the Philippines
