Greetings! It has been a while since I had posted a blog on my food trips. Honestly speaking, I already had several food trips this month, but had no time to write about them.
Last week, we went to Bohol to attend a friends wedding. Taking it as an opportunity to go on a tour, why not have a food trip on the side line? On our first 3 days in Bohol, we stayed in the resort Bohol Tropics. What struck me me most in that resort is that they had a BIG bathroom. Imagine your self taking a bath with 3 persons on queue behind you. As for their breakfast, you will have the option for American or Filipino breakfast. A must try when staying in Bohol Tropics is their Mixed Seafood soup. I was surprised to see coconut in the soup. Maybe it was an extra flavor which helps heighten the taste factor of the Soup.
On the second day, we went to Sagbayan Peak. Sagbayan is one of the chocolate hills which is open to the public. They have a restaurant there which served us a delicious Pancit. Which among the Pancit varieties which was served to us is still a wonder. However, we were surpised to enjoy that certain kind of Pancit without even a drop of Calamansi. Hope you get to try it too.
On our third day, we took the Tour of Bohol. We visited the Chocolate Hills, this time it was Carmen hill. It is so nice to take pictures there. If you have the time, why not go and take a picture of yourself riding broom over the Chocolate hills *for a price*. Next, we went to Loboc to have lunch aboard a boat cruising in Loboc River. I must warn you, the food does not taste THAT good. Just take it in as a feel-good experience. Also, in Loboc, I got to see a Tarsier. Reminder, do not take pictures with flash when taking shots of Tarsiers. They are nocturnal creatures and are sensitive to light. We also took a stop at the Bohol’s largest Python. Tourist advisory: Buy your Tarsier magnets here, they sell them for P25 each *the cheapest I found so far*. For our last stop, we went to Panglao island to enjoy the white beach of Bohol.
For those with tight budget, book rooms at Dumanglao (i think this is the name). It is cheaper to book a Beach-front here. For those who have cash to spare, book rooms at Bohol Beach Club, it has a nicer beach. Their beach have a more Boracay Feel with their hammocks and well combed beach. In Panglao, why not try Dumanglao’s Cashew Shrimp.
Sorry, I did not take picture of my food trips. My hand was too sticky from the Lansones we were eating. FYI, I do not touch my Techie stuffs when my hands are sticky with food. :p Hope this is a good guide for your Bohol vacation.
