The Purple Slippers | Travels and More

I have lived almost half of my life in Iligan City and we have been crossing Lanao del Norte ever since I was born. My dad is from Misamis Occidental and my mom is from Misamis Oriental. We live in Marawi City and then Iligan City. Lanao is always a beauty. Before we reach MisOc we pass by Lanao del Norte municipalities and haven't really visited and discovered secrets and beauty in each of the Municipalities. Many groups attempted to conquer Lanao del Norte and it's municipalities because of its beauty. Good governance plays a big role. As far as I can remember since the Dimaporo's governed the Province, there's peace and order in place and recognizable developments. Lanao del Norte, I mean Mindanao as a whole has been suffering from this stigma of peace and order issues ever since. The recent siege in Marawi (although it's in Lanao del Sur) greatly affected the entire Mindanao most especially Lanao del Norte. My recent visit was amazing, and I hon...

I heared about Lantaw Restaurant from my blogger friends in Cebu. And even if I have been here in Cebu for a long time, I haven't been here or dined here either, not because it's something that I can't afford? but because it's quiet far and I don't have a car to go uphill.

The Magsaysay Park has been known to many because it’s the favorite place of durian and mangoesteen lovers in Davao City. They may not be serving the cheapest durian fruit and candies but it became a landmark of Davao City, that when you are looking for a durian haven where you can eat and go, then it’s at Magsaysay.

Toryano’s Chicken Haus is one of the oldest landmarks in Davao City. According to the host Davaoeño who brought us there, the place is one of the oldest food place in Davao. They are known for their Native Chicken barbecue meal. It has been an all time favorite and a must try when you are in Davao City .

Majority of the food places here in Iligan City or probably in Mindanao and Visayas is more of grilled food. For some reason, majority of must go to places here are offering grilled food, and Dear Manok is one of the most visited and must try here in Iligan City. Before Mang Inasal came into picture Dear Manok is already in the market and serving the tastiest original Chicken barbecue here in Iligan City. It has the tastiest chicken barbecue I ever tasted, no bias. I prefer it's taste over Mang Inasal and Tita Fannies, this two has their distinct taste that are also well loved by people.

Unlimited rice, viands and desserts! That’s what eat all you can is. It’s literally eating everything until you still can or consume all you want kumbaga. It’s usually priced between 199 – 699 pesos. While I was still in Cebu, me and my team of call center agents and office mates always goes to Eat All You Can restaurants to consume all we want lols most specially during paydays. It’s like treating yourself after a tiring day at work.

If you’re fond of eating seafood or you treat seafood like heaven, then this will definitely drive you nuts. A serving of crispy squid, baked tahong, garlic shrimp, half serving of kinilaw, a serving of grilled tuna and steamed veggies will surely make you overdose with anti-histamines. I mean seriously, this bilao good for 3 to 4 people is actually just good for a 1 hungry juan. And indeed this is absolutely heaven.

Tita Fannies Liempo and Chicken house is one of the Platinum sponsors of the first Waterfalling Adventure Tour hosted by the Iligan Bloggers Society Inc. Tita Fannies shouldered the food for dinner at their Consunji Branch. It is the second branch of Tita Fannies which is located just outside the Gaisano Mall of Iligan.  Tita Fannies tasty pork barbecue Tita Fannies is one of the homegrown restaurants in Iligan City which started 1998.

I was in Cagayan de Oro City for Mango Opening at Centrio Ayala Mall. Right after the event my siblings came for dinner. We checked out the new opened Bigby's Cafe branch in Centrio Ayala too.  We ordered an meat and seafood platter since we are meat lovers (halata naman diba? lol). This platter has grilled pork belly, grilled chicken, Calamares (squid) and rice. Look at their happy faces. Haha it's priceless! Siblings time is LOVE. How about you? How often do you spend time with your siblings? Are you planning to visit Cagayan de Oro City soon?
