An Essential Stop: Balai Palmera Restaurant and Pasalubong Center

My affinity to Tagaytay and its nearby towns stem from property and family we have in Silang, Cavite. I also love the weather, especially when it's cold. There's also lots of places to go in the area where family, friends, your solid peers could take refuge, unwind and go home after a few hours because of its proximity to Metro Manila.

But when you're going back home, it's a sin to not pass by a shop or store that sell local produce, for what we call pasalubong, something that's always innate with Filipinos. We've found a new spot called Balai Palmera Restaurant and Pasalubong Center located along the Tagaytay-Sta. Rosa Road in Barangay Pasong Langka Silang, Cavite.

Check this new dining destination at the Sta Rosa Tagaytay Road in Silang, Cavite. It's called Balai Palmera Restaurant and Pasalubong Center. The restaurant sits at the back and serves really good Filipino food. The interiors and views are amazing! #balaipalmera #balaipalmerapasalubong #balaipalmerarestaurant #thebestbukopieinsilang #ibasasilang

Thank you so much to the wonderful people of Balai Palmera, I will be back there soon! If you want to call or contact them for orders, it's 09458695392 for the restaurant and 09275017616 for the pasalubong center. They've got a mean on at the pasalubong center which you should definitely visit. Don't forget to take home the coveted BUKO PIE which makes this place legendary! The Chef says they do quality assurance in the buco meat they use and have researched well about the flaky pastry they use for it. There's also the Raisin Bread which I loved as it was freshly baked that same day.

It's Filipino... with a flair, and it made my trip there worthwhile.

One Good Sunday

This Sunday I will be trying my luck not to get too tired because I will be having a party over at a friend's house in Laguna. Judging from the looks of it, I have to make an effort to at least not pass out since I am going back to QC later in the evening so I could work. Yeah I know how it feels to be in the office at Sunday evening, it's just going to be a big tiring day since Laguna is hours away from Quezon City. Aside from that, I would need a couple of things done at work for reports and all. I guess I am thinking of a way to analyze most of the data I send to the US office so it would be better taking a look at it when Managers from that end read it. I am not going to do something major but I would like to make whatever I do more attractive and important. I guess it is just me.

Oh by the way I would like to congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Bernal for having a cute and cuddly baby girl. With the things we have been doing in college, it is pretty much automatic we are going to be part of each others lives. Her Christening is going to be this Sunday (main reason to go to Laguna). I hope I get to have one of my own sometime soon too. Here's a photo of her:

Cute kid! ^_^

Again, congratulations Pare! Sana dumami pa yan hehe!
