Cafe 1914, Camiguin Islands

>> Friday, April 15, 2011



My cousin had been telling us about this cafe that serves the best Halo halo in Camiguin. We brushed off the idea because it had been raining since we got here.  But yesterday, it was so warm and humid.
So at three in the afternoon, we decided to go there. But we were caught with a few other matters. Plus we waited for my cousin to finish office tasks.. So at five in the afternoon, our quest for the island's best Halo-halo resumed...

Yesterday we went for Halohalo and Siopao at Cafe 1914. It is said to be the best source of Halohalo in Camiguin Islands. So instead of thinking about my tasks and looking for the best data backup software, or finding all sorts of information I was trying to search for, I ate Halohalo and Siopao at Cafe 1914..

I was told by the attendant that their ice cream is home made. They order it from someone from the island.. It does not taste good alone, but the ice cream with the Halo-halo mixture tastes wonderful.. Not too sweet-- just the right blend.. 
A serving of Halo-halo costs P 60.00 only.. It has lots of fruits and the milk they use is Alaska... Then their Siopao was introduced too.. 
 I love how the meat and the dough tastes.. One Siopao will cost you P 23.00 only...

Food Served in Pangyawan

>> Wednesday, April 13, 2011



We went to Pangyawan as per invitation of my cousin's half brother and his family, who were generous and  hospitable towards us.. When we arrived, we were welcomed by freshly harvested Buko from the coconut trees in their own yard...

They also cooked Kamoteng Kahoy and we enjoyed how naturally sweet they were..


After that afternoon snack, we went to the seashore and decided to take a plunge and go boating...


My cousin told me that at that very shore, fishermen would sell fresh fishes direct from when they have arrived from fishing at the deep waters... They are fishes you would normally find in the market, that shall already be priced high and perhaps be preserved using ice..  But buying from there would mean that the fishes are yet fresh, un-iced and cheap..If the fisherman is a friend, you can even get them for free... 

My cousin told us that in the morning she will buy some fresh catch for us to enjoy... so yeah, in the morning, we were served Tinolang Nucos (Squid) and Bisayang Manok sa Gata (Native Chicken in Coconut Milk) for breakfast... Yummy.. Both, chicken and squid were fresh...
I bet this is your first time to hear of Tinolang Nucos or Stewed Squid as it is usually cooked Adobo style. Tinolang Squid is much similar to cooking Fish Tinola as fresh squid is cooked in boiling water with lemon grass as primary herbal ingredient... It tasted sweet, and has no odor.. 
Before we started breakfast, I saw two other foodies coking in the kitchen with another Squid recipe, and the Native Chicken in coconut milk continuously boiling...
 They used "Dahon sa Sili" and Malunggay as added ingredients...
 Boy, it was sumptuous and delicious, no matter how simply they were prepared....
