Bonifacio High Street (BGC, Taguig) – Taguig’s “Instagram vs Reality” Promenade
Bonifacio High Street: Where Your Bank Account Goes to Die Beautifully
The only place where people pay ?250 for avocado toast while complaining about inflation. Here’s your 15-point reality check:
- The “High” in High Street: Refers to both the altitude and the prices.
- Dog Walker Central: More pedigrees here than in a Kennel Club show.
- Outdoor Escalators: For when you’re too rich to walk up slight inclines.
- Instagram Alley: Where every wall is a background and every meal is a photoshoot.
- Yuppie Safari: Spot the species in natural habitat (Samsung-toting, AirPods-wearing).
- Weekend Stroller Traffic: More congested than EDSA during rush hour.
- ?500 Artisanal Burgers: Because a regular cheeseburger is for peasants.
- The Great Dog Poop Minefield: Watch your step (and your Gucci loafers).
- Christmas Decorations: Start appearing in September because capitalism.
- Fitness People: Who walk 20,000 steps then eat a 3,000-calorie brunch.
- BGC Buskers: Playing Ed Sheeran covers to uninterested finance bros.
- Corporate Events: Where free food attracts more people than the actual program.
- Secret Starbucks: The one in Fully Booked where writers pretend to work.
- Park Bench Philosophers: Usually just people waiting for their Grab.
- Reality Check: That security guard makes more in overtime than your starting salary.
Final Thought: It’s not a lifestyle – it’s a carefully curated illusion.
