As an offshoot of the very successful (despite naysayers) Davao Food Trip, The Usual Suspects is now preparing for the Davao Food Appreciation Tour, fondly called Davao FAT!
The Davao FAT will be a three day tour of Davao City that will center on food and eating. This will be held from March 14 – 16, 2008, in time for Araw ng Davao. Most meals during this event will be for free for all registered participants. It will surely be a yumtastic experience for bloggers from around the Philippines.
By 2009, Holiday Oceanview Resort & Spa will open its doors to the public. Holiday Oceanview Resort & Spa is a project of the Bangayan Group of Companies which counts among its businesses Holiday Taxi, Holiday Spa, Venue, Wheels n More, and the Center for Asian Culinary Studies in Davao.
Holiday Oceanview Resort & Spa is a PhP300 million project in Samal Island which includes a hotel, a condominium complex, a marina, and a subdivision. The project is sure to boost the tourism industry in the Island Garden City of Samal, and consequently, Davao City.
The Holiday Oceanview Resort & Spa has already started selling lots during this year’s Davao Travel Show held at the SM City of Davao.
While searching for a new place to have some desserts, the MDC Team stumbled upon Sugar Munch. I was also eager to try it out so I can include it in my directory of local cake makers for my Wedding Coordination business. We were not disappointed when we saw the giant ref full of mini and full-sized cakes.
I am not a fan of bangus (milkfish). I don’t hate it, but I don’t eat it if not forced too. But the moment I tasted Avenida‘s Bangus dish, I fell in love with it. The fish was not dry, it was flavorful. The tomatoes, onions, and other vegetables on top were delicious. YUM!
I recently went somewhere in the Marilog District for a work-related event. And I was mesmerized once again by the beauty of the flowers that are bred and sold there. You’d think these flowers can only be bought from abroad, Baguio, or Tagaytay. But locals, in fact, breed and sell them for very low, low prices.
