An Enjoyable and Leisurely Food Trip at High Point Restaurant
Baguio has become a very saturated city. It’s more so during the holidays and festival season like the Panagbenga. It’s a hard fact to swallow, but what can we do? There really are so many people in the world today. *shyeew.
Dine in peace. =)
It’s at times like these, I put Read More…
How Things Changed in a Year …
Okay, a ton of things have changed in the city’s dining scene since I started this Baguio food blog *hihi, but I’ll just be featuring the most recent ones I noticed for this post. ^^, Ready for the ch-ch-ch-ch-changes?
1.) Forest Lodge
Used to be The Suites (the hotel/accommodation that stood in the shadow of The Manor and maybe one reason why it sounded so unreachable before was because it was exclusive to shareholders/tenants). Oh yes, it’s fair game now. *heehaha Le Twist (its inhouse resto), we’ll be having a food adventure in your dining area soon! Weee!
A few of the goings on at the lodge’s anniversary party.
Theme: Back to the 80’s.
They called in the DJs from the old Spirits Discotheque to get the people pumping and grinding on the dance floor – which turns out to be the new 19th T(ee). (I used to have an ice cream scooping stint in the old 19th Tee, not really in the 80s =b but boy did that get me reminiscin’. Missing Myrtle and Biang now.) Cue Life Dance! Yeh!
Before the party officially started at 8:00 p.m., Forest Lodge served Le Chef made little munchies and cocktails (which Race and I missed the better and more scrumptious selections part of due to the weather, dang!) But Race, their highnesses, their friends (It was nice to meet you Kariza, Nikki and hubby. (“,)) and I got to top ourselves off with pulutan/finger foods once the party got hopping. *nomnomnom pulutan. =))

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)
