Kruhaaay Antique Heritage Tour Day 3

Enrico Dee Leave a comment

It’s the last day of our tour in Antique and I am pretty much excited to try new stuff while here! We we up a little early again, for our coffee, and breakfast of corned beef and sunny side up.  It is our last day in Antique and we made sure to save the best for last!

After breakfast, we went to the Tribal Adventures facility to try the whitewater kayak experience. I have tried the whitewater radfting in Davao before So more or less I have an idea of what to expect. 

And before we go out in the river, we had our safety briefing first. Tribal Adventures has been operating the whitewater kayak in Tibiao for quite some time now, but it is only recently that it came into spotlight when Katahum Tours started to market this activity as part of their tour product.

It’s Day 2 of our Antique Heritage Tour, and I’m excited to explore the rest of the province!  We woke up a little bit early for our cup of coffee. We spent our night at the Zipline Inn. It was named as such because it is adjacent to a Zipline facility. 

From our accommodations, we were then shuttled to the beach where we Had our lambaklad fishing the previous day for our breakfast.  We had the usual Filipino breakfast but this time, by the beach!

Fact: I grew up in Bacolod City in the Province of Negros Occidental, and oveer the years, I was able to explore the other Provinces of Western Visayas, namely: Iloilo, Guimaras, Aklan Capix, except for one: Antique. 

I did made several attempts to cross the border between San Jaquin Iloilo going to Anini-y Antique but nothing came it. All plans failed.

Day’s Hotel Iloilo: My Home in the City of Love

Enrico Dee Leave a comment

Tis is not my first time to try staying at the Days Hotel in Iloilo City. In fact this is one of the reliable hotel brands that I recommend to friends who are visiting the City known for its Dinagyang Festival and La Paz Batchoy.

My first experience with Day’s Hotel Iloilo was in 2010 when the hotel was one of the major sponsors of Visayas BloggingSummit, and the Philippine Blog Awards – Visayas.

And just a few weeks back, I found myself sleeping in one of its rooms again.  (...)

Have you been to the Mom’s Shack Burgers in Bacolod City?

Enrico Dee Leave a comment

It all started out as an afternoon weekend snack for the family of HS school mate, Owen Bayog. But their burger is too good ot to be shared to others. Soon enough they grilled burgers for friends during special occasions. But after a few more convincing from friends, they finally decided to open the Mom’s Shack Burger House. And just as what they say… The rest is history.

Flashback, Bacolod is one lucky city to enjoy locally made honest to goodness burgers. During my youngers years, we would normally go to the downtown area for our burger fix at Popeye’s.  Any Bcolod of my age,could still vividly recall this food joint before.
