UPDATE: The Venizes (Cafe Veniz & Veniz Grill)

It has come to my attention that I never really left that many pieces of information about the sister restaurants at Hotel Veniz, whether it’s about the cafe or the grill.

I just mentioned that the Venizes is where my P3 posse and I hung out the most since:

  • it’s right smack in the middle of the central business district,
  • they’ve got a variety of dishes to offer,
  • and the lot of that, all for a reasonable price.

Between the two of these places where to eat in Baguio, the most photos I have from the early beginnings of the Baguio food quest are at Veniz Grill.  (Oh, how we love their Mongolian buffet spread … I’m reminiscing now about all the hours we spent there just satisfying our hunger, relaxing and having fun after a hard day’s work.)

I thought all those points would be enough to inspire you, my fellow Baguio eatsplorers to make Cafe Veniz or Veniz Grill one of your food destinations while in the City of Pines and considering that’s my first post about a Baguio restaurant ever, I hope you forgive me.

Anyhoo, it’s a deficiency that’s easily rectified. So here goes, Veniz Grill vs. Cafe Veniz (in pictures).  (“,) Read More…

Baguio Greatest Hits for Good Food

Strike three (and we’re IN \m/) for Baguio restaurants that need no introduction or any kind of commentary!

(We were supposed to case out Star Cafe but we’ve come upon it with its doors closed … again.  Ahey, I didn’t know they closed so early.  But oh yeah, I’m learning. *hihi)

Notable Edibles #2 – Street Food (Bonifacio Street)

Street Food (Bonifacio Street)

Street food, it forms a huge part of the dining scene probably in every country and in every city in the world.  In the City of Pines, these little snackables are mostly found near schools.

Walking along Mabini Street just recently, I noticed that the area where the stall of Aquino’s used to be had been fenced off.  (Probably another “on this site will rise” a commercial building *sigh.)

(I hope Aquino’s wonderful store of tokeneng, mango halves that you “use” like a spoon for the shrimp paste and palamig/coolers just moved someplace nearby … if they did, UB people please give me a heads up about where I can find them . Thanks, guys! I really appreciate it. (“,))
