Baguio Food Diary: 50’s Diner, Good Taste, Happy Tummy and More

May 12, 2014

It’s been over a month since I went to Baguio, and I admit I’ve been lazy to finish my posts about it. Some would say that it’s an overrated travel destination, but I loved our 3-day stay there! The cold weather plus the festive atmosphere during February made our visit quite memorable. We loved it so much that we’re already planning to go back next year.

Iris, Eunise, and I are not just travel buddies, we’re also food trip buddies! I swear, we ate a lot in Ilocos, and we did the same thing in Baguio. Most of our travel budget went to food, and I don’t regret it one bit. I love to it, and I’m pretty adventurous when it comes to eating. I don’t have any qualms to try my hands on anything, even when it sounds exotic to some.

Anyway, I’m pretty sure some of you are planning to go to Baguio some time soon. After all, it’s summer in the country and it’s just annoyingly hot in Manila and even in Laguna! I think it’s not that cold in Baguio these days, but I’m also pretty sure that it’s not as hot as in Manila.

(Note: This isn’t a complete list of the restaurants we tried in Baguio. Our first meal was in Cafe Sabel, which I already blogged about here.)

50’S DINER

I am happy to report that 50’s Diner didn’t disappoint. It’s one of the main reasons why I wanted to go to Baguio! I heard such good reviews and almost everyone I knew who went there ate here. I know they’re famous for the pancakes, but when I saw HOT AND SPICY CHICKEN on the menu, I just had to get it.

I loved it so much, I almost cried.

Eunise and Iris had Guys on the Hood which is fit for big guys. It has chicken, pork chop, a slice of pizza, garlic bread, spaghetti and fries, and my friends finished them all. They may be petite but they eat like a man hahaha.

You can find 50’s Diner at 92 Upper Gen. Luna Rd. cor Brent Rd.Baguio City, Benguet. It’s within walking distance from where we stayed but we got lost! It was so cold (around 15 degrees celsisu, I think?) that I wanted to cry. We were so happy when we found it. We asked directions from the students we met on the way. It’s actually quite near and along the high way. But I don’t think I can direct you there. Heh.

BenCab Museum and Cafe Sabel

March 11, 2014

Let it be known that I am no artist. In fact, people are quick to judge my draw stick figures and my lettering. Also, every piece of art is good to me. I can never distinguish which is good or bad, but since it’s subjective, I want to console myself by saying that it doesn’t matter. I am very easily pleased and very easily awed by the beautiful.

Suffice to say, I thoroughly enjoyed BenCab. It’s our first stop in our short Baguio Weekend, since we figured it’s quite out of the way. It’s located less than 30 minutes away from Baguio, and it’s definitely worth a visit. The museum is overlooking a valley and a well landscaped garden. There are works from different artists, and of course, Sir BenCab’s works. I’ll stop talking now, because no words can ever succeed in describing art. (Also, it will only sound presumptuous coming from me. Heh.)

Korean Night: Top Dish and Caffé Bene, Makati

January 31, 2014

KOREANNIGHT

There are three reasons why that night couldn’t be more Korean. One, I ate dinner with my Elementary Korean 1 classmates, along with our sonsaengnim. Two, we had dinner at Top Dish and coffee at Caffé Bene. And three, we spent all night talking about Korean dramas and our oppadeul. So really, I can’t think of any other adjective to describe that night. Well, very fangirl-ish comes close. But we’re not all girls, so there’s that.

Even though our Elem 1 class ended last December, our class still talks online from time to time, and we still plan on seeing each other again. We won in the video-making contest at KCC last term so we have a few more GCs to spend. [Read more…]
