FOOD TRIP IN SAGADA

When in Sagada, it is almost impossible not to do the one thing that every human in this world needs to do; to EAT. And Sagada is the perfect place to just chill and unwind and strip that "DIET" out of you. With all the physical activities one has to do in a day while in Sagada, eating is such a sweet reward.

Let me guide you of the places you may want to visit while staying in Sagada.

1.) LEMON PIE HOUSE. The name itself you'll understand why. But it's not only all about Lemon Pies. They also serve breakfast, lunch and dinner at a very affordable prices.

A pie slice (Lemon Pie/Egg Pie and their seasonal pies) costs P35. While main courses which includes rice starts at P100-150. Affordable?! Oh wait till the food arrives at your table. Then you can say that at the portioning that they're serving you, the price is way too affordable. It is cheap!

The atmosphere is so warm and cozy. The interiors were well lit but not too bright. Just nice for the theme. Rustic, country house theme with traditional spears and gongs and such as decorations. Once you step inside you will feel that you've been transported to another country.

For take home pies, please be advised to order 1 day prior departure. This ensures that you pie(s) are freshly made. They open at 6am, just nice for you to grab those pies before heading to your bus going back home.

2.) THE YOGHURT HOUSE. And by the name of this joint I should say you'll understand why and know what's the special of the house. Yes! Yoghurt! But they also serve other varieties of food for breakfast, lunch and dinner although the variety is not so much.

Recommendation?! Try their HIKERS BREAKFAST & TAPSILOG. They also serve traditional chocolate drink from the cacao and not just "MILO" as hot choco which made me so happy. Portions size, again, it's super size. Don't ask. I was beginning to think that in Sagada, this is their "REGULAR" portioning. Quite disappointed with the egg though. I've always like my sunny side up eggs runny. Mine was cooked to well done. Sigh.

Thumbs up for the laid back, rustic, country look of the house. Cozy & very homey. At first we thought that the place was an inn coz there were so many people the night before when we passed by trying to find a place to eat. It turned out not. The place was just that "popular" I guess with all the mentions it got from all over the blogs.

Price ranges from P80-P180. Very affordable price for such delicious grub. Treat yourself once in a while and let go of those "diet" woes.

Service however was not so great. I don't know. Probably because we're locals and not foreigners?
3.) SAGADA PINE CAFÉ. The perfect place to chill after a long day's activities. Relax and unwind. They however only served drinks.

The place has this really unique sense of decorations. Very Rasta/Reggae vibe. Makes you just want to chill.

Drinks averages from P50 for beers to P180 for hard liquors. Plus you can smoke inside and play poker. Whatever floats your boat. But don't pick a fight guys!
4.) VINCENT'S RESTOBAR. Another Reggae inspired. The food were great! Again, portions were huge leaving you so stuffed. I love the way they decorated the restaurant. So simple and yet very eye catching.

Prices are very affordable. Ranges from P60 - P180.
5.) KIMCHI RESTOBAR. Talk about recycling, Kimchi resto bar made sure that they're one example to follow. The mosaic walls were all decorated with the tins from soft drink/beer lids. Empty sake bottles for display. And a whole lot more. You've just gotta visit to see it.

From it's name, one can tell that yes! They cook Korean Cuisine. The owner had worked in a korean kitchen in Korea thus mastering the art of Korean cuisine. They also offer Filipino Cuisine too.

The ambience was very cool and reggae feel. It's also one of those chill out place to eat and drink.

Prices are from P100 - P180. Affordable isn't it.?!

ENJOY!!!
