    Hi
    I was very disappointed with not seeing nice fresh vegetables and herbs on my first visit. Is there anywhere to buy in DMG? In particular basil and lime leaves for example. Tks

    you may want to try lee super plaza or fortune mart. these herbs are not really a part of the daily filipino cuisine that is why you do not find them everywhere. or maybe we do not even sell this. foreign owned restaurants use them maybe they can help you find them.

    If you have enough room on your lot....try growing your own too. We've just got an average size home here in Perth and I'd say we grow about 70% of our veggie requirements without even trying hard. Costs almost nothing and great way to get a little exercise and spend some time. Looking forward to doing it in Bacolod as well...
