UPDATE … to Tea Time at Cha Tien
An update post about my favorite tea shop is long overdue. It’s even more pressing that I post an update now when they’ve got more than Blueberry Alevosia and their other concoctions with a kick added to the menu. (Take note of that word, ‘kick’. I’m going to get back to that in a moment. =D)
There’s no doubt about it, Read More…
Baguio Greatest Hits for Good Food
Featuring another Baguio food establishment that needs no introduction. As for commentary, I’ve got lots to share about this place so …
5. Mandarin Restaurant
It’s been bugging me a lot seeing the Baguio restaurant list, running through the names of places where to eat in Baguio, and there, right beside Mandarin Resto is a “CHECK!” and a “no pictures” notation. I’ve been to Mandarin a few times but in those days, the digi cam wasn’t readily available yet (or it was, but I didn’t have the moolah to get my own =b).
So when Race was thinking about a tofu themed meal and I was stumped where to go (yes, I have those days too; san tayo, san tayo? Mai-aw-awan moves *hihi), Mandarin, a Chinese joint seemed the most logical choice. Off to town, to Session Road, up the first flight of stairs in the NetGear building (Shout out to Sir Lambert! (“,)) (Note to self: Must see what that building’s real name is) … and into the restaurant that is one of the City of Pines’ greatest hits for good food, we went.
The first items in our meal. Lots of calamansi, aw, thankies, Mandarin! Our drinks, coffee and guyabano shake. The latter was so good, I had to have another glass … also because … wait for it ….
Notable Edibles #4 – Tuvera’s Longganisa
Seeing that I started July with a blog about a notable edible in Baguio, I’m going to follow through and make the last post of the month about another noteworthy viand.
(It would also be good to have a short-ish post today because my internet connection has been moving at snail’s pace ever since that lightning crashes and torrential rain last Friday … It will stop me from picking my monitor up and smashing it on the ground in annoyance. *hee
As for the benefit to you, my fellow Baguio eatsplorer, you’ll still get some info about what to eat in the City of Pines. Win-win. \m/)

Longganisa from Tuvera’s Meat Store
Y-U-M! (“,)
Talking about longganisa from Baguio City, the first thing that comes to many people’s minds is Alabanza’s version. That never really registered for me (and my family, I’ll explain about that in a little while) until they started setting their booth up at the Panagbenga Festival. (Going on early morning Session Road in Bloom walks, my furry friends never fail to stop and fill their nostrils with the scent of these regular and garlic flavored sausages cooking over portable cooktops. =b)
