Ricky Davao in New York!

Take a bite out of the Big Apple as Ricky Davao explores the place where people claim New York as "a city so nice, they named it twice!"
Published Oct 5, 2007
Ricky says about this restaurant in New York, "If you've seen [the movie] You've Got Mail, 'yan 'yong restaurant kung saan nagmi-meet sina Meg Ryan at Tom Hanks. Ang tawag diyan is Café Lola." (YES! November 2005 issue)

Fresh from the success of his critically acclaimed indie film Mga Pusang Gala (2005), Ricky Davao flew to New York, U.S.A., to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from Fanclubx.com, an organization of young Filipino-American actors and filmmakers.

The 44-year-old actor was the first to wonder why he was getting an award usually given to senior citizens. Ricky recalls, "Sabi nila, kasi daw, I inspire them. Tiningnan daw nila ang aking body of work and nagustuhan nila. Siyempre, nakakatuwa, di ba?"


In the movie, Ricky is cast as Boyet, a homosexual who accommodates stray cats (and even stray humans) in his apartment complex.
