That's why it's called a soft opening. Usually no advertisement of same. Just trying to work out any kinks before the grand opening usually with friends and family in attendance to give constructive feedback and possible improvements etc... If I may suggest, in the future try to time your visit of a new establishment after the grand opening to really experience what the restaurant or venue has to offer. Just offering an opinion![]()

Bacong needs a good snack food/restaurant. There is only a couple of options: La Fiesta (in San Miguel Barangay great food, but extremely slow, I suggest ordering dinner at noon), Bambulo (great environment, great Sushi all you can eat Buffet on Friday nights) and Takkries French snack shop on Highway... (Good food, small portions at small price... best homemade Ice Cream you will find in Bacong.) Keep us informed as to your location and good luck. Soft opening is a great way to start, but let people know you are experimenting and would like any suggests they have for improvements... make you customers part of your business family. They will stick around you family home.... lol-

Just at the *soft* opening if will. Small little more so snack food place focused more on things like shakes, halo2x, burgers, and fajita's. I have plans to add fairly quickly some rice meals but haven't sorted that out quite yet so probably be a couple weeks in.
But on a sidenote a proper *healthy* serving of rice is about 1/2 a cup of cooked rice and better if brown rice. Try getting any Filipino to believe that thou!-

I guess you must be aiming at the "expat without wives" market as all the wives will talk their husbands out of going if there is no available rice.-

Assuming this isn't just a figment on someone's imagination...
The rule wouldn't require that you have rice with your meal. The rule would require that when serving rice, you make the option available of serving a half portion rather than a full portion.-

That makes sense. The rule is to allow serving a half portion of rice rather than only offering a full portion.

I'm also bet that at least one city council member has a share or two in company that supplies rice.
