When it comes to chicken barbecue, the Manokan Country is the ultimate destination. It's a street lined with food stalls and restaurants with the sweet smell of grilled chicken filling the place. At lunch time, people flock here for an appetizing meal of chicken barbecue and sea foods like oysters. The food is so great that some people use their fingers for eating. Most of all, the food are really very, very cheap that you would be surprised of paying so less for a food that is so good.
At night, Manokan Country is converted into a beer place as men come here for a drink. With a bottle of beer in one hand, the other hand dips the grilled chicken on sweet and sour vinegar filled with chilli and other spices. Some restaurants have videoke machines for those who have the appetite to sing and do some merrymaking.
My favorite hang-out place in this restaurant row is the Lion's Park, owned by the family of my friend. It is a bit different from the rest because it is found at the corner which has a different architecture type compared with the rest of the stalls.
