Oops! I am not the bad influence here because I’m not the one who suggest the drinking session activity right after a practice they a had as a band at Area001 Studio.

Since most of these younger friends I had were still at their 19′s and 20′s, I was the only one eligible to buy a liquor. Seems every place we went to were abiding the rules. They were asking for ID’s to verify if we were at the right age.

“Dong! Strikto man gud ron. Kinahanglan man 21 up ra among baligyaan kay mao man gud ang naa sa city ordinance. Mag roving nya ba maka multa man gud mi“. (Boys! It’s really strict now. We only sell alcoholic drinks to 21 years old and above as what the Cebu City Ordinance states. It’s really hard if we will be caught and face the sanctions.)

We move on! Still looking for a place and still the same statements we got. We went to Route Stop, if my memory serves me right on the name of the place. The lady told us still about the Liquor Licensing Code of Cebu City.

“Kung masakpan man gud mi makamulta man gud mi ug Php5,000.00.“,the lady explained. (If we get caught that we serve minors alcohol drinks, we are sanctioned to pay Php5,000.00).

Reading some news online, this is true! It even closed the place near University of San Carlos.

Bakak Resto Bar Ltd.’s most serious violation is selling alcoholic beverages to minors or those under 21 years old, which is prohibited under the Liquor Licensing Code of Cebu City. Secondly, they found out that it is operating without a business permit and a special permit to sell and serve liquor within a 100-meter radius from schools.

Personally, I would say that it is good to know that those places we went to were abiding to the said Liquor Ordinance of Cebu City. At least minors are now controlled to drinking sessions and are informed about it when they get to the places.
