I never thought that I could enjoy our trip yesterday. I must admit that, somehow I saw some inevitable imperfections; however, generally, the trip was awesome! Well, you have to devise ways on how to make something enjoyable no matter how uncomfortable you seem to be. :)..
Okay! Enough of mushy stuff!! I have got here the short list of our itinerary yesterday. I had so much fun that I inputted a few notes and addresses so that if you (crazy reader of this blog :)) would need it... Then you can see it. :)
We left Manila at 10:30 AM the least. I was sooo worried about him since we traveled with two of their company’s highest ranking officers here in Asia. We went with their Country President, to whom they were fond of calling “PhiTap”, and their Regional Marketing Manager, Vivian. We came to the meeting place, an hour or so late!! I wasn’t able to gather their complete names but... I’ll do my best though, in order to preserve the memory of this trip. Anyway, I‘ll have a separate entry for the “feelings and cheverlooo” on that day. I swear I was so happy, but not until I truly saw and realize the something that I have been always dreading about. But as I have said to numerous people already, we should not waste a very fine moment. Learn to enjoy every step of the way!!
Take a look on the notes I put below:
Bag of Beans – Pity because we have stayed here for just a short while. The place is neat; and very nature friendly. They have bird on cages; and like most of the places in Tagaytay, they have numerous flowers. What I like most here, is that I have displays of very old things like, clock, old TV and teapots ranging from 1880’s to 1920’s, the least (wicked!!). I have a feeling that it looks so dramatic at night.
The Boutique, Bed and Breakfast – owned by Melon Santiago, Allana Montelibano and Happy Ongpauco (Heart Evangelista’s Sister), this very idealistic restaurant, located at #45 Aguinaldo Highway, Silang Crossing East Tagaytay City, offers very healthy cuisine topped with the luscious view of the Taal Scenery. They also have one of the finest accommodations, whose names are “I desire”, “I lust”, “I dream”, instead of the usual “Suite 1” and so forth. I highly recommend this for couples... (I’m gonna also try this myself!! A big woof woof!!) mailto:theboutique.bnb@gmail.com

Caleruega – Church tripping have never been one of the things that I fancy when I go on tours, but not until I went to the St. Anthony de Padua at Upper South of Catbalogan, Samar. Yesterday, I had the privilege to go into one of the most romantic church there is. This church, is very Hispanic, and exhibits elegance in the same manner that it mirrors the ages that it had been through. Located at Bgy. Kaylaway, Nasugbo Batangas, check this artistic scenery! http://www.caleruega-philippines.ph

Paradizoo – Place for fielded animals… where you can find lots of sorts. Peggy, PBB’s favorite pig is also here. I enjoyed the sight of these animals. Pity I missed milking a goat!! Love the sights of butterflies though. FYI: adult butterflies have a life span of 7 days!(Seven days!!? Seven days to be beautiful? That’s crazy!!)

Sonya’s Garden – this place is loaded with lots of beautiful flowers. They also offer pampering services like massages and body scrubs. Shame that I didn’t get to enjoy the place that much. We just sat at the place’s cafeteria (too grandiose for a “cafeteria” eh?) and talked together with Tin and Jorge. And BTW, this is the home of the finest Cheesy Hopias that I have ever tasted!!! http://www.sonyasgraden.com

Gourmet 1977 – this is the place where we took our Dinner; kinda Tagaytay’s version of Chef Donatello or Sbarro maybe. I love the place’s cozy ambiance; topped with the serenade of their very talented pianist…OMG!! I considered it a very romantic place for pasta-fanatic couples like us!!! FYI... I love their seafood combo pasta!!
Breakfast at Antonio’s – for those of you who are crazy about great sceneries while having breakfast, this is the perfect place for you, ma’ hommies!! Quite a classic yet serene place for a dreamy breakfast. They serve great sausages and crepes too!!

Good Shepherd Sisters – this is the last of our destinations. We came here to buy pasalubongs and I think they also bought something for Vivian to bring in Singapore. I bought a small bottle of Strawberry Spread myself, and a 990 gram pack of specialized Ube Jam. BTW, in every purchase that you make, you help a child in order to pursue his education. Quite a catch!!
I hope I didn’t miss something. I really would like to share what I enjoyed and what I saw. The great news is that, there are a lot more other places to visit!! Im looking forward to my next visit here and that I hope I’ll get to give you more hints and tips when you go here in Tagaytay!! Hooray!!
