‘Tradisyon-al’ Breakfast Dining Experience at Tradisyon Coffee Shop

Tradisyon, simply translates in English as tradition.  By definition, this is a long established custom that has been passed on from one generation to the next.

At Tradisyon Coffee Shop, they didn’t just offer us traditional fare (Pinoy comfort food as they like to call it =D) for our breakfast buffet.  Actually, they had a wide range of options for us that day (pancake, eggs, vegetables with dressing choices of Caesar dressing or strawberry dressing, fresh fruit slices, loaf bread and various jams, etc.).  What I meant by a traditional experience relates to the kind of service we got from this establishment.

Filipinos are known for being a hospitable and warm bunch of people.  That’s just what I saw and felt dining here.  (“,)  (And here I thought, the pure and true Philippine hospitality is dead.)

Our diner dash competition for the best Baguio diners continues.  Introducing the third and final contender, Future Diner.  And their off!

The Third Contender: Future Diner

Race and I found ourselves on the opposite side of town when we planned to check out what gastronomic delights places like the ones found in Hotel Supreme could offer.  Getting off in front of the old building of Hotel Supreme, the Ivy Grill and Restaurant and what was known as the Orchid Bar was all dark, ominous (woooohhhhh) and deserted.  We had question marks in our eyes thinking that we made the trip out there for nothing but then turning around, we saw that the new building of Hotel Supreme had other restaurants.  One particularly noticeable establishment was Future Diner.
