Starting today, July 2, Cebu’s famous Larsian barbeque strip will be closed for two months as it will undergo a rehabilitation and repair works.
Larsian Administrator Joey Herrera said that stall owners will temporarily be relocated to a capitol owned lot in B. Rodriguez Street, a few meters away from the original location.
The P1.8 rehabilitation and repair works, according to Herrera, will address the drainage and sanitary problems in the area.
