went to Vigan, Ilocos Sur 2 weeks ago for a much needed?... scrapped that i think DESERVED is the more likely term... R&R session with friends!!! i forgot how fun it is to be carefree.. to not be worried, to not be checkin' emails, phone... to just forget about everything & everyone.... TO JUST NOT CARE... i know that the vacation was not that long but still... but it was FUCKING WORTH IT!!!
Vigan, is trully a magical place, its super old school, but then they have adapted a bit to the modern culture & the food is like AMAZING!!! (hahaha i sounded like michael, i kinda missed him... hehehe). we stayed at the very cozy
Grandpa's Inn near the plaza & Heritage which is where the heart of Vigan is.
Food was on top of my priority list, first thing i have to try was the Vigan Longganisa.
Longsilog (Longganisa - Sinangag - Itlog)
i actually didn't like it, it was a bit salty & it certainly don't look appetizing at all.
then we went for lunch at La Mirada (the food, ambience & service was much much better compared to the famous Cafe Leona)
Mandy's Lethal Combi: Bagnet & Poqui Poqui (Grilled scrambled Egg & Eggplant)
this is the perfect place to have bagnet!
we also tried the fried Ice cream, it was soooo good we came back again the next day for it.
we also had the Bagnet Pizza in Cafe Leona
it was ok, inventive.
Pizza was serve in a pizza plate, as in Plate with a Pizza printed on it hahaha
then we tried the very famous Empanada & Shrimp Okoy in the town's Plaza
this was what it looks like before frying (Longganisa, Veggies & Egg Yolk)
Vigan's Empanada
it was super yummy, i love that the egg yolk was half cooked, but Mandy prefer it to be well done.
Shrimp Okoy
i was not a fan of this, it was a bit too oily for me.
Current Obsession: Vigan Empanada... I WANT!!!!
Current Addiction: go to the BEACH... w-o-w... HIMALA!!!! hahaha
