Laguna's Hidden Paradise in Panguil (Panguil River Eco Park)

Every time we go to Laguna we pass by Panguil but we did not know that there is a Hidden Paradise in this small town. It was only when i read about it in the June Issue of Cruising Magazine that i got to know that there exists such a Paradise in Laguna. 

To get to the Panguil River Eco Park do not take the road going to Panguil Town Proper, instead take the Highway. There is a sign that says Panguil River Eco Park along the Highway, do not be mislead by this sign as they placed it on the wrong spot!! Take the road just before this Sign if you are coming from Rizal and after this sign if you are coming from Laguna. 

In a few minutes after turning left or right depending on where you come from you will arrive at the gate of Panguil River Eco Park. If you have a Car with you, park it at the Parking Site just before the gate. Parking Fee for cars is P20.00. You will need to pay at the Admin Office an entrance fee of P42.00 a person, if you want to go to the Ambon Ambon Falls that is another P60.00, if you want to rent a Hut that is P200 for the small one and P400 for the bigger one. They also have camping grounds here.

You will need to cross a Hanging Bridge to get to the River Eco Park, same as Daranak's. The Panguil River Eco Park is very well maintained. Though there are some litter on the flour, these are few unlike the case in Daranak Falls. The Laguna Provincial Government as well as the town of Panguil should be commended for maintaining the place.

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
