TAGAYTAY ROAD TRIP

since it was a long weekend, we decided to have a little family bonding. we left for tagaytay around 9:00 a.m and luckily there was no traffic.

first stop: corn vendor along the way. lolo wanted to eat native corn.

second stop: pink sisters convent. i wanted to say a little prayer before we go on our trip plus to get some yummy pasalubongs like sampalok and polvoron (which by the way, my nephew loved!)

sepi with yaya - eating the polvoron under the tree :)


third stop: mushroom burger - my uncle insisted that we make the stop. haha! he loves mushroom burger. well, i ordered 1 for each of us and we all loved it :)

fourth stop: bag of beans - a well known coffee place in tagaytay. too bad they don't serve alamid coffee anymore (civet coffee). i wanted to order one for my uncle so that he could taste it. they said that it's made of something that you woudn't want to know anymore. hehe :)

i love their sheperds pie and black forest iced coffee :)


they do have nice tables down stairs like this day bed where you and your family can lounge and relax.
fifth stop: palace in the sky. so beautiful. well not really the place because it looks like it was abandoned already but since it's the highest point in tagaytay, the view is breathtaking plus the coldness of the air! i lav et! :)

we had to ride the jeepney already because after a short walk, my 91-year old lolo gave up. haha! my nephew enjoyed the short jeepney ride. it's P40/one way, regardless of the number of pasaheros.

sixth stop: good sheperd - bought some pasalubong. i haven't taken pictures of their yummy ube halaya (s - P125/ b - P180) and tawilis in olive oil (P80 per bottle). yum yum!

seventh stop: flower shops along the street. we bought flowers for our departed ones.
eight stop: rose and grace bulalo house in sta. rosa. we just had to have our once in while dose of bone marrow! :)
