Ki’kan – Food Adventure at Lights Out (1st Installment)

It’s not just the lights actually, but the electricity for the city.   (It’s easier saying it in Tagalog.  “Walang ilaw covers the lights, and anything that has to do with current and voltage. =D

With the lights out for the better part of the day, I thought of going on another eating binge where a couple of restaurants could be checked off from the list.  The first stop was Ki’Kan Restobar.  (It should’ve been another Star Café visit with me and my brother making like members of old Baguio hanging out with coffee and evaporated milk as creamer, but the cafe was closed. *hihi)  Up we went on Session Road to Governor Park Road.  What I was going to have there was going to be breakfast and for my brother, it’s a snack.  He ate breakfast before we went out.  (Ahh, the men and their stomachs. \m/)

Route 55: Good Food Bringing a Dead Zone to Life

Legarda Road is a long road starting off at the Heritage Mansion and ending at the intersection of Marcos Highway/Ben Palispis Highway.  When there are lots of shops, hotels, restaurants and other kinds of businesses in the first part of the road; the latter part is mainly a dead zone of sorts.  Just to prove my point, a huge building that has never been finished stands in the vicinity as a marker.  Passing by that section of Legarda at night, it even seems as though the street lights are dimmer and the air colder. *whoooo =b

With the opening of more businesses in the dead zone, this area of Legarda Road is slowly being brought to life.  Read More…

It’s a new day!

Let’s pick up where we left off with bashing Baguio restaurants (that didn’t serve good food or had bad service in our visit).  So where were we?  We ended with Mile Hi Diner yesterday and today, we’re going to start with the restaurants in Pines View Hotel.  Let’s just get this over with so we can get back to the good stuff the city has to offer.  (“,)
