Achieve Inner Peace through Lotus House Chinese Food (Ohhhmmmm)

Chinese restaurants abound in the city of Baguio (and in the Philippines).  And why shouldn’t there be lots of them when Chinese food is so good?  (“,)  As promised, we’re doing a feature blog on the Lotus House restaurant at the old Hotel Supreme.

It’s right where the old Ivy’s Grill and Restaurant used to be and they’ve renovated the place so that it’s not as ominous looking as it was the first time I saw it.  *shyeeew.  Ivy Grill has been transferred across Lotus and it’s also known as Café Palmera.
