Cebu is lechon and Crowne Regency

Edge coaster
 
The only ride we've loved at crowne regency!
It'll be a problem for those people who have fear of heights. But you should not miss this for experience.
 
Imagine, you're on top of 38th flr... On the edge, tilted.
But if you can't handle your fear, you can control to straighten it.
 
And congratulations, you'll receive a certificate, brave one. :)
 
Skywalk: Mission accomplished!
 
This is another thrill we've done on 37th flr.
The thing is, you will walk on the floor. That's all.
I guess they should've change the floor into a glass so we can see what's down there. Right?
 
 
Excited hubby :)


 Cnt Lechon
1/2 kl for 180Php

In a sunny afternoon lunch, people are crowded dining here at Cnt Lechon. Some do takeouts not just 1 box (1kilo) but 4 even 6 boxes! I also witnessed a family seems having a party to their house ordered 6 whole roasted pig. "Ganun kabenta at kamura sa Cebu"  I said.

The place is not too extravagant, in fact it's like a canteen. Though.. hot. Really hot.

Anyway, moving on to their delicacy. Lechon.

To be honest, I don't eat pig skin, even crispy pata. To be exaggerated, I disgust those food. Fortunately, Naga's Bob marlin's crispy pata changed my taste. "Ang sarap!" with matching twinkling eyes. 

At Cnt, people ordered 1kl to dine in. No people EXCEPT US ordered 1/2kl haha. "nakakahiya naman" I said. :)

You know what, their food brightens my day, I totally love their pig skins that doesn't need any sauce, though for the internal meat, you prolly need those. (rhyming words! haha)

Another famous lechon I heard are Zubuchon and Rico's lechon which we will try next year :)



I don't know why in Manila's lechon doesn't taste so good for me.

You know what they say, "Authentic food comes in the street of the origin".


Ta-ta!

Long weekend at Baguio City [Part 2/ Pizza Volante]

As we arrive at Pizza Volante restaurant at around 10:30pm. Seats are almost fully-packed! But still, we managed to find a table for us and we assume that the restaurant's food is that great.


Here's what we've ordered,


mussels in red sauce with wine
117Php



I like this dish so far, the sauce is thin because of tomato & mussels juice. Liquid-y as you eat it, you know, sauce is spattering as you slurp the pasta :p



Kenny George 8" pizza
162Php

For this specific flavor, this one is average for me.
Anyway, we'll surely try other flavors and might blow us away :)




Waffles
75Php

Creamy waffles. Simple yet yummy.

 
Others: Chicken fillet Corsican rice 120Php
            Vanilla milkshake 46Php

Tasty chicken, not too salty aaaannnd Vanilla milkshake for the win!  So addicting.

Overall rate, we'll surely get back here again, imagine, all the food I've mentioned above costs us around 500Php.
Very affordable and the food is simply great.

Long weekend at Baguio City [part 1/Vizco's restaurant and cake shop ]

Everyone is happy because it's looooong weekend (Aug 18-21)!

August 18 Saturday
August 19 Sunday
August 20 Eid-al-Fitr (Holiday)
August 21 Ninoy Aquino day (Holiday)

That's why :)


Moving on to..... Baguio! Yay.

Vizco's restaurant and cake shop

Before hubby and I check in to our hotel, we stroll first by walking from victory liner to session road. Well, I guess to save fare..maybe not. :p

Baguio City is really small that you'll be able to memorize every corner of the place. As we walked to session road, there are lots of restaurants to choose from, italian/filipino/chinese cuisine, cake shop and many more.

But Vizco's caught our attention so we tried this out.

Gambas rice
225Php

This dish is one I really like! A combination of pesto buttery sauce in a very tasty shrimp that can't go wrong.


Chap chae
 [*from Ocha restaurant menu]
210Php

*Ocha and Vizco's owned by the same owner where you can order some food from Ocha's menu even if you're in Vizco's, vice versa.

Hubby's favorite. I normally don't eat chap chae, I don't know, maybe it's just odd for me to eat sweet noodles. Except for this, I like the balance of sweetness and saltiness of the dish which made me eat this. Unfortunately, due to recent adjustment of my dental braces, I can't chew comfortably. Wrong timing. Maybe next time!


Choco mudpie
[based on my receipt]
90Php

This dessert.. it was frozen! Confused a bit for this dessert, the usual mud pie I know is that, chocolates are swimming around the cake. Choco mousse with banana Or Banana choco mousse (Yes, it's banana, the yellow thingy above) is more appropriate I guess.


Mango cake
65Php
I like what I ordered a slice of mango chiffon cake. For the price it's really worth it. The icing and mango cream layer did not fail on me.



They accept credit card

They do delivery!
