    HP sauce in Cangs & Monterey meat shop, other than that you're sh*t outta luck, unless you import it in a Balikbayan box, for sure Manila, maybe some in Cebu, but doubtful.

    Occassionally you can find some Brit stuff in Hypermart but it's a bit hit and miss. Campbells condensed soup (as long as you like mushroom) is in Robinsons, along with HP sauce but not much more. If you are going to Manila let me know before hand and I will let you have my discount card (10%) for the British Shop, near the Embassy. Colemans mustard, marmite, Fray Bentos steak and kidney pudding, Ambrosia rice pudding, etc. and not forgetting Heinz baked beans, a.k.a. musical fruit. :p

    Actually it's now in Alabang, Muntinlupa. But it's very easy to get to. The Union Jack Tavern. More than 300 lines of Brit products, plus a restaurant. Fish and chips with mushy peas, roast lamb, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, Paxo plus Guinness, Murphys, Boddingtons, Woodpecker, Scrumpy Jack, it's almost orgasmic !! :wink:
