Baguio Dining A La Carte – Keeping Up with the Food Quest

At least trying to. =))

Whoa, are our gobs so busy chomping!

I’ll divide the menus in subcategories: Newly checked off (which might be newly opened restaurants or just some place I’ve never tried before *hee), updated menus, menus of places in limbo (for me. Dang, not again!) and one we’ll put under a “seen but not yet tasted” category. *hihi

Newly Checked Off

Let’s get things started with the biggest wave maker. =D

Update on an UPDATE: Green Pepper Gourmet Stop

Stepping out of the shadows and into the spotlight, Green Pepper Gourmet Stop revealed itself to be a star among the restaurants at the Ketchup Food Community and also great food establishments around the City of Pines.  Reinvention (not just one but two) seems to have paid off and glad I am to have returned.

The Green Pepper Scene

  • Weather proof dining.

The new Green Pepper scene.  As you can see, it’s more weather proof now.  Wall paneling (Home Improvement like fencing. Let’s do the Tim “the Toolman” Taylor grunt!) on what used to be open sides where diners could get wet in rainy weather.  The wall inside is prettier also. (Wah, reminds me of Batanes. Oh to return to where the hills are alive and rolling =D).  Take a look at BEFORE.

It Takes a Ketchup Food Community to Make a Happy Tummy

Or is it the other way around? ^^,

No matter.  But just so you know, before any of the other eating places at the Ketchup Food Community came to be, there was Happy Tummy.  A Thai restaurant opening for business at the most opportune time (when people became more receptive to Thai cuisine), they serve pad Thai, chicken pandan, fried tilapia in tamarind sauce, som tam salad, Thai iced tea and more.  What with the mega flavors that their offering of Thai dishes have, you can order up something as simple as eggplant salad and eat it viand-like with bagoong rice or maybe the more downplayed salty flavor rice – Thai rice.  A good and filling meal for a happy tummy.  (“,)  That’s what Race and I did the first time we visited this restaurant.  Hanging out in one of their dining tables in a hut, we had happy tummies in no time.
