This has been an abandoned gas station most of my life, but it’s now a great little market, and it’s quickly becoming a fun neighborhood spot too.

Sunday brunch at Crisostomo: A nostalgic feast for the family

I always look forward to Sundays. Aside from being a day of rest from my usual work, it affords me with some precious time to spend with my family. Hubby and I usually take advantage of this day to take the kids out for brunch after Sunday mass and we are always on the lookout for fresh foodie experiences to share with the fam, such as our Sunday brunch at Crisostomo. Location: A Quaint Haven…

It's time to wrap up my Siargao trip posts. I realise these entries are lengthy and may seem somewhat uninteresting, but I really like to record mostly what happened that day before the tiny details fade away. The brain is a fickle thing, y’know. That's why I like to jot down everything here on my blog, thus the URL — thememoriesarchive. Anyway, I'm looking forward to revisiting this blog in the coming years to read these adventures; I just hope Tumblr sticks around.

Day 7 - May 3, Wednesday

It was time to buy pasalubongs! At 8 am, we grabbed breakfast at one of the carinderias near the local market, then we went to buy dried seafood and local vinegar. Unfortunately, the vinegar was not allowed inside the aircraft, so it was such a waste. We also went back to White Beard Coffee to grab our coffees—this place was always packed! Anyway, we booked a massage appointment at Siargao Island Villas resort. It was soooo so good. Asis mostly enjoyed it; I even heard him snoring! Lol

As soon as we finished, we headed to CEV: Ceviche & Kinilaw Shack, which was what I had really been looking forward to that day. If ever I return to Siargao again, this place would be at the top of my list. And that’s about it – we explored around, making the most of our remaining time and our scooter rental.

That day was also a celebration of our 8th-year anniversary. Although initially planned for the actual date, yesterday (May 2), we decided to celebrate it on the second-to-last day of our stay on the island instead.

Day 8 - May 4, Thursday (The last day)

On our last day, we went back to the Lokal hub to grab breakfast and, again, to White Beard Coffee to get some fuel for the day. We returned to our place to pack our bags, making sure we didn’t leave anything behind. Around quarter to 1 pm, we were already at the airport, waiting for our flight. Maaaaan, I was really hoping to see President Nadine around Siargao, and I was losing hope. But lo and behold, she was on the same flight to Manila, and even Andi Eigenmann’s daughter, Ellie, was in the same flight and the same row as us. It was unexpected. I wanted to have a photo with Nadz, but nope, I didn’t want to bother her and invade her privacy. So, yuuup, we arrived home around 6 pm, totally exhausted from our trip back. It was so not nice to be back in the urban jungle.

To wrap up this Siargao trip, we really did have a great time. To be honest, though, we didn’t want to think about our expenses during our 8-day stay because everything there was overly expensive, and we thought it was not reasonable. If you were to ask us if we would like to return, of course, we would answer yes! Because the island is just beautiful, and we really haven’t explored it all—Taktak Falls, Alegria Beach, Corregidor Island, Bucas Grande. But if we consider the expenses, we would say no, not in the next 5 -10 years. It was enough for us that we had the opportunity to visit the island. So yea, I’m finally done with the Siargao trip posts. It was such an adventure. I can’t wait to visit more of the Philippines. Until next time!

Bangus is often considered the national fish of the country, since an estimated 3 kilos of bangus are consumed per person every year*! Its white, flaky flesh is tender when cooked, and although notorious for having so many bones, fishers have long found ways to remove them & make them easier to eat.

A common preparation of bangus is splitting it from its dorsal side or back, and opening it to reveal the fatty, bangus belly “center.” Whether you have tinapang or smoked bangus, marinated bangus, dried, fried, or even fresh for bangus kilawin or kinilaw… bangus is best split, and shared :) Printable: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1420966942/bangus-in-baybayin-filipino-food Artprint: https://society6.com/product/bangus-in-baybayin_framed-mini-art-print *Philippine Statistics Authority, 2018

If you were a culinary historian who wants to be banned from most of asia & latin america i implore you to get to the bottom of the spanish-portoguese trade complex & its relation to sushi, fish sauce, kinilaw, ceviche, escebeche, fermented fish dishes in the polyesian & micronesion regions

Tuna Kinilaw #LutongMariaClara #TunaKinilaw

Sabang Village is pleasantly situated in Bry. Cabayugan in Puerto Princesa, and is best known as the jumping-off point of the Puerto Princesa Underground River in St.Paul's Bay. While most tourists often leave Sabang immediately after the underground river tour, there's more to this quiet village. Adding up to its raw appeal is the bountiful Sabang Mangrove Forest hidden nearby.

Sabang Mangrove Forest is one of the eco-tourism destinations in Puerto Princesa. Like any other mangrove forests in the world, it plays an important role in our biodiversity; serving as nutrient-rich habitats and breeding grounds for a variety of birds, snakes, monkeys, reptiles, fish, crabs, and other marine organisms. Another importance of mangrove forest is its climate resilience, as the mangrove roots above the ground slow down water flows and encourage sediments deposits thereby helping prevent erosion. Their roots also filter pollutants in the coastal waters, and they protect coastal communities during typhoons by absorbing storm surges and flooding.

In order to further protect the Mangrove Forest, the Sabang Mangove Forest Paddle Boat Tour was founded to empower local communities, provide additional income to residents, foster environmental awareness, and provide sustainable tourism activity that minimizes negative impact to the environment.

After our Sabang Mangrove Tour, our boatman excitedly showed us how to get the famous Puerto Princesa delicacy called tamilok (woodworm). It's actually a species of salt water clam called Teredoi navalis, nicknamed naval shipworm because it makes its way to the wood. Tamilok in the Philippines thrive on mangroves, mostly found on dead submerged mangrove trees. Our boatmen split the rotten wood open, and carefully examined the creases of the wood to look for tamilok. Then, they cleaned it with saltwater before finally cleaning it with tap water. Tamilok is typically served like kinilaw (ceviche). It is cured in vinegar, salt, lime juice, and chili, then, you can swallow it whole.

Seeing the tamilok prepared raw from the opening of the deadwood to the cleaning and curing is truly a unique experience. They look weird, but trust me, they are delicious!
