With a listing of over 4,000 bars and restaurants and the comments and feedback of thousands of foodies in the city, Spot was the indispensable guide to the best dining places in the city. But as Spot grew, the clamor for topics beyond dining could no longer be ignored. With Manila being such a dynamic and interesting city with so much to offer, SPOT.ph has grown into a full-blown urban and city news guide. Relaunched with former Marie Claire editor-in-chief Myrza Sison at the helm, SPOT is the authority on life in Manila.

While users can still upload their reviews in the Community section, SPOT now also offers well-written features and insightful commentary on the latest happenings in and around the city—life and leisure, art and culture, music and movies, politics and gossip, style and shopping. SPOT also features the blogs of some of the country’s best and bravest writers: Lourd de Veyra, Jenny Orillos, Ria Limjap. SPOT’s The Feed offers short bits of gossip and juicy news as they happen. SPOT will continue to be the authority on all things food, but more than just a phone directory, SPOT now also has comprehensive movie schedules and reviews and a jampacked event calendar and guide to what’s on. Now there’s more to read, more places to go, things to see, do, buy, and talk about in SPOT. Says Sison, “Spot will give you the scoop, the dish, the blow-by-blow, every single day, throughout the day.
