    Make of it what you wish.

    Hey all, it's 3am..... unfortunately due to events that unfolded tonight. Bamboos will be closed indefinitely. Please respect our private space and let us work through this difficult period.

    I don't know.
    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?

    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.

    When i was in there last (march 2022) for few beers so no comment on the food, it had just been taken over by an Australian couple, Man and wife I believe?

    They had been waiting 2 years to get over to pi due to the scamdemic and start a new life, I dont remember there names but they brought their kids with them from Australia ,, So I am guessing this has now changed again to new owners,,

    I remember it well when ralph owned it and i used to enjoy a beer or 10 in there,, Living in Dauin at the time it was on my way to town and on way home :smile:

    Doesn't sound good.
    For me it looks like another bit the dust.

    It's really a pity. I like this place, the food, the service, the environment at the way it was driven by its owner.

    Fingers crossed they will open again.

    They also have their menu at the Hillside in Valencia and, I believe, a second location at the Flying Fish in Dumaguete. Never been to the one at the Flying Fish but the food (I only tried the pizza) at the Hillside tastes the same as the location in San Miguel.
