Our Visit to Baguio

    My family and I recently visited Baguio ironically when it was rainy and the weather was really bad. That’s how crazy we are sometimes and no wonder my husband and I are still together until now! Hahaha!  So we visited places such Burnham Park, Club John Hay, Mines views, SM Baguio Mall, The Market and the night life in Nevada Square. We had 5 days vacation in Baguio so we really made an effort to explore their tourist spots and foods. We stayed in Hotel Veniz which is strategically located at the heart of Baguio (well for me) because it is besides the market, session rd (downtown), Burnham Park, Malls and many more. Of course we had breakfast in the hotel because it was free, and BUFFET! Our Favorite! Then after that we decided to go out and visited places. My son really enjoyed running in Baguio’s fresh and super green grass. The can even smell the pine trees! Unfortunately it was raining really hard so we went back to the hotel early. We had dinner at The Sizzling Plate and although the food was great, the place is not.  There are so many cockroaches all over the place, and it was scary because even their ceilings are full of baby cockroaches (which are worse than big ones because it’s harder to notice if it’s already in your food!!!) This is not my first time to visit the place so I was really surprised that the restaurant is almost falling apart. My favorite sans rival was still great but their steaks (porterhouse and t-bone) are not that yummy anymore. We even changed table 3 times because of the roaches. Then the second day we partied at Nevada and we were also disappointed because the place is not the same anymore as it was before. It was too crowded, not of people but of establishments.

     Then we went to this place called Kamalig Comedy bar, it was funny and the gays are really hilarious but not to be compared to Manila’s Comedy bar because it is still Novice. The next day we visited 50’s diner on its new location and to my surprised, although almost everything changed, the food was still ok. The servings are still big and the vanilla shake was still awesome! The last 2 remaining days of our vacation was spent inside the hotel because there was a typhoon, it sucks but we had some quality time together so it turned out great. Then before going to the bus terminal, we decided to have lunch in SM Baguio and we found David's Tea House. The servings are huge and the taste was phenomenal. But if you are in a hurry to eat, I will not recommend this because it took a while for our order to be served. We ordered Pata tim and some dumplings.
