Bamboo Bob’s Pizza

Hey all, a few changes being made, there has been a lot sh*t going on behind the scenes.....got to love expat life hey, the changes will be for the better, gonna filter out some of the customers, move to changes we have always wanted.....all will happen over the next week or 2 but it will be open starting tomorrow for pizza and basics whilst changes are made.

 

That are excellent news.

 

For me as well.
And why to close the whole restaurant if you only want to get out a few people ?

Anyhow, I hope it will be open soon again. I love the place, the food, the environment. I really do.

 

We went yesterday just after 11.30am but gate was shut and couldn't see anybody.
What are the opening times ?

 

Should have been open from 11, will ask about this today, but, as of Wednesday, fully open from 11am til 10pm, will stay open later if still busy. Will be a new and improved menu and style of restaurant.

 

Is this the place that used to be la fiesta?
Hope the aussie family still there as they nice people

 

When this place was La Fiesta it was owned and run by German Ralf and his wife, then Bob had taken it over hence the name, after Bob it was Larry who may have been Aussie? But now it is owned by a guy called Mark who is an Aussie, (he likes to boast about how much money he has, which suggests to me he has reinvented himself?) apart from his Pizza which I think is really good the rest of his food in mediocre to me and overpriced, service is not all that good with a long gap between the first and last meal to be served to even just a company of 4 people, if you care to look on trip advisor they have a couple of sh*t reviews done by myself, I do believe in more recent times he brought in a New Chef, if that is true the food can only get better? I think I heard they may have dropped the Bob from the name now?

 

The place id called Ruby J's now.

Lynn and Larry are out, and Mark and Ruby took over.
Same staff and chef what I understood.

That's what I found on Facebook:

Hello to all of Bamboo Bob's friends, family and customers! We have a very important announcement to make!

It has been a fantastic adventure the past 17 months! Lyn and I have made so many wonderful new friends! Our plan was always to do our best to provide the same type of restaurant that Lyn and I had been looking for, for over two years! Great food, great staff, and a relaxed atmosphere! We believe with our amazing staff, and your help we hope we have achieved that goal!
It has been the best 17 months for both of us, meeting new friends, and welcoming old friends to Bamboo Bob's!
Together, with all of our amazing friends and staff, we hope that we have established Bamboo Bob's as one of Dauin, Bacong, and Dumaguete's best restaurants for good food and a friendly environment to enjoy a great dining experience!
It has been a fantastic ride! Thank you all so very much!
Starting next Wednesday, we ask that all of you please welcome, and show the same kindness and friendship towards Mark and Ruby, as you did to all of us! They will be officially taking over Bamboo Bob's next Wednesday!
Mark and Ruby understand that Bamboo Bob's has the best wait staff, and cooks in our area! Rest assured all the same fantastic faces in the kitchen and wait staff will remain the same!
This is not Mark's first restaurant, in fact he owns two other successful restaurants, one in the USA, and the other in Australia, where Mark is from.
Mark has many great ideas, and a few food dishes up his sleeve that sound amazing, we can't wait to try them out!

Lyn and I will still be dropping by often, and look forward to sitting down to enjoy a great meal and conversation with each of you! It will be nice to be on the other side of the bar for a change!
Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts!
We will see you soon!
Lyn and Larry!

 

Pretty sure that post is old news...from when Larry and Lyn left and Mark took over. First I've heard about the new name though...maybe part of the new look and changes Mark was talking about.
