Short on time but craving quality? Beginning 2026, Burger & Lobster will be your fast, flavorful errand-day fix.

Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53).

Ancestor's Home in Cabanatuan, Philippines

The ancestor’s house remains where it is being taking cared of a relative as your caretaker and this happens to a lot of people who have reached a retirement age having a home so big it is hard to manage here in the Philippines to pay someone to take care of your home is inexpensive compared to other countries.

No matter if you’re earning more than the Philippine currency you can afford the living expenses and the expenses that come having an ancestor’s home.

What happens when none of your siblings don’t want to migrate and retire back in the Philippines, they are content with their life abroad? Most people end up selling their ancestor’s home due to the life situation they decided upon and the share of how much with its value gets divided by equal share of each sibling and in any case, you have a sibling who no longer living and decease their share goes to their children to inherit.

Of course each sibling needs to pay equal share of the expenses made during the process and help pay the daily expense to take care of their ancestor’s home and to pay the property taxes to make sure the bank doesn’t get a hold of it in the future.
