2 Day Singapore Trip

Off all my trips to Singapore. This is probably the shortest. It won't be even a 48 hour trip.


Day 1-August 19


Our flight PR 505 left on time (740pm). Food served was a choice between Chicken Estofado and Fish Curry. I chose the Chicken Estofado which I did not like. The fish would probably have been a better option. It was served with a dinner roll, a salad and dessert from Bizu (Mango Pannacotta).

Chicken Estofado with Roll, Salad and Pannacotta

Fish Curry

The film they showed was The Bounty Hunter, a lousy film by Jennifer Anniston and Gerard Butler, no wonder it was a flop at the box office. The plane landed a bit ahead of schedule (11pm, schedule was 1115pm) and in less than 30 minutes we were in the taxi. Getting to the Apartment was Fast! Fare amounted to SGD16. Did not sleep until 130am.

Day 2-August 20
Woke up at 6am. It was raining in Singapore so just stayed at the Apartment. At 1030am we had a nice brunch of nasi lemak, char siu pork and another pork dish similar to our lechon kawali. At 1230 we left the Apartment. Took Bus then MRT to Plaza Singapura. Will check spotlight if they have Shower Curtains there.



Had some luck at Spotlight. Though not nature themed, it will do for the meantime. Got some snacks at Snack It, taiwanese chicken and mushroom with spice. Then we took the mrt to Novena Square to get some drinks at Gong Cha. Iced Milk drinks seem to be the craze everywhere.


At 250pm we are already back at the apartment. Dinner at the Apartment 8pm. Dinner was fried thai pork, pork tinola, beans with baby shrimps. Went to sleep around midnite.


Day 3-August 21
Woke up 6am. My sleep was a light one. I constantly woke up, to pee and to scratch my itchy body haha. 730am left the Apartment. Took bus 124 to City Hall MRT. Then MRT to Changi Airport. Took Shuttle Bus to Budget Terminal. Line at Check In was quite long. Took around 40mins to finish.

Aling Pining's Crispy Pata (La Loma, Quezon City)

Image
One of Metro Manila's BEST Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage. I found about Aling Pining's Crispy Pata in a FB Comment a few months ago. The Commenter just said the best Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage in Halcon Street in La Loma. With Just Halcon Street as the address we went to La Loma 2 weeks ago in search of Halcon Street Crispy Pata. When we arrived at Halcon Street we just asked the people there where we can buy Crispy Pata. We passed by it already it turned out. It was indeed just a garage. It had a small sign. Halcon Street Crispy Pata was Aling Pinings Crispy Pata.  An Old Lady was the one frying the Crispy Pata. While a middle aged woman  was the one accepting orders. We bought a Crispy Pata (P400) and we were on our way. At home we were eager to finally taste the Crispy Pata. It did not disappoint. The trip to La Loma was worth it. Is it the best? My mom said the one in Marinduque is still the best. For me? Well i need to go back to

D' Original Matutina's Seafood Restaurant (Dagupan, Pangasinan)

Image
The first time I heard about Matutina's was a few years ago when it was mentioned in the Inquirer that it is a favorite Restaurant of Former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Since it was a long drive just to sample their food I had a hard time adjusting an open schedule just to go all the way to Pangasinan.  This morning we were able to finally find time to go all the way to Dagupan, Pangasinan to sample Matutina's. The one we went to is the D'Original Matutina's in Tondaligan, Dagupan, Pangasinan. They have another branch in Urdaneta Also. There is a Matutina's in Tarlac City but i guess this is not connected with the Matutina's. We Ordered the following: Sizzling Bangus - This was just Delicious. The Bangus was Milky. Meat was just perfect.  Inihaw na Pusit - Grilled to perfection. The Squid was tender. Buttered Shrimps - though it was not the buttter shrimp i wished for, the freshness of the shrimps made it good enough

Gaston Mansion @ Hacienda Sta Rosalia, Manapla, Negros Occidental

Image
The Gaston Mansion in Hacienda Sta Rosalia located in Manapla was used as the Mansion of the Lorenzo's and referred to as Hacienda Lorenzo in the 1980's Film, Oro Plata Mata. The Gaston Mansion is not as opulent and ostentatious as the other Ancestral Houses in Silay or Talisay Cities. The rooms are small compared to the other Mansions in Silay or Talisay. It definitely was a Countryhome for the Gaston's. --oo00oo-- Facade of the Gaston Mansion at Hacienda Sta Rosalia Eversince I saw this Mansion in Oro Plata Mata i was intrigued as to where this Mansion was. I was in luck as it was in the list of Tours Offered by Next Stop Negros. Price for the tours is P2000 a Person, this includes a Buffet Lunch inside the Mansion and served in the Dining Room of the Gastons. It is P1500 a person if you have your own transportation. Aside the tour of the hacienda, you will also be brought to the different Ancestral Houses which are open to the Public in Silay and
