Baguio: Food and Events

By Celine -
We were in Baguio for my birthday last November 8. Aside from celebrating my birthday in my favourite city in the Philippines, +Jomar and I were also speakers for the Google community Baguio events last November 9. He will be speaking at +GDG Baguio's Devfest while I will be sharing about Google+ and Google Search for Education for +GBG Baguio's gDaysXBaguio.

The morning started with a round of breakfast from +Azalea Baguio. The joint morning program happened while we moved from one room to another and we also visited the ongoing launch of +GEG Philippines in +Berkeley School Baguio. We had lunch at Canto in the Ketchup Food Community.

Delicious food from Canto!

After lunch, I was running going to my session which was supposed to start by 2:00 PM. Lunch for the event was late, and thus all the talks were delayed by around an hour.

After the event, we all had a pizza-pasta buffet lunch at +Tradisyon Coffee Shop. I was full. Be sure to try the Tiramisu as well in the dessert buffet - very delicious.

The Pasta Man! He prepared the pasta for the customers.
You have to choose whether red, white, or oil-based sauce and
you could pick from the different pasta they have.

The picture looks like a ghost pizza movie. LOL!
They have five different pizza, and you could get as many as you want.

I can't wait to come back to Baguio. Thanks to +Vince and +Reymart for taking care of us and congrats to them on the hugely successful event.
Location: Baguio City, Philippines

Last October 2013, I was able to visit the City of Naga and below is my food trip in CamSur. Casa Moderna Freshly baked bread on a huge brick oven and some Pancit for snacks on a lazy afternoon. That's how I enjoyed the soft pastry and meaty Pancit in Casa Moderna. Currently, they have five branches all in Naga City. Be sure to visit at least one of them. Meaty Palabok

My first Philly Cheesesteak from The American Cheesesteak Co.

Growing up in the Philippines, I only heard of the famous Philly Cheesesteak in movies or when watching Food Network. Thus, it shouldn't come as a surprise that last Satuday was the first time I tried a Philly Cheesesteak from The American Cheesesteak Co. in Vancouver. I have an uncle and cousins in Philadelphia and when I visit my goal is to try a Philly Cheesesteak while in Philly. The same way I was so estatic to eat Japanese Katsu Curry in Japan and Vigan Empanada in Vigan. The American Cheesesteak Co. Jomar and I went to St. Paul's Hospital for the last weekend of Lights of Hope and decided to have dinner here. Why? First, it's close to Granville Street where we will take the bus going home and second, I remember seeing the You Gotta Eat Here episode featuring them. Therese and I are attempting to try most of the restaurants John Catucci went to. Here's a map of restaurants the show visited in BC as of Season 5. The Philly VS New Yorker Since it's

Food Trip near La Salle Taft: Exile on Main Street

+Joshua  has been raving that we try this restaurant along Leon Guinto Street, walking distance from De La Salle University-Manila. Last August 16 (Saturday), we (+Jomar, +Wayne, and Mitch) gave it a shot. We went there a little before 6:00 PM, and thankfully, we arrived at that time! There's a board games night (every Saturday from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM) organized by a group of people so the place could get noisy and crowded during Saturday evening. According to Josh and his friend, it's not usually like that. The Service The service is okay. The waiter who served us didn't smile at all. He also looked tired and impatient. At first, I was a bit disappointed by that, but I just told myself that it's okay. I mean, I could imagine how tired he might be running around getting and serving orders from all the people inside such a small place! Still, the service could have been better. The Food What it lacked on service, it compensates with the yummy food.  +Wayne  h
