Wonderland: My Food Haven

Wonderland or Delish Treat? Delish Treat or Wonderland?

I personally believe that this post is both promoting a wonderland and at the same time relishing sumptuous treats for a foodie like me. This is a wonderland and delish treat rolled into one... hitting two birds with one stone. 

In my previous post entitled, Wonderland: Subic (click to read), I mentioned that Boracay's tranquility and Subic's adventure and shopping spree gave these two a spot on my list. Today, I am adding three wonderland to my list because they have been a certified food haven for a big foodie in me. 

Iloilo. Seafood lovers got to be in this place. Their wide variety of seafood are fresh at Cabugao and Breakthrough restaurants. Aside, from seafood, Iloilo is the home of the famous Ted's Lapaz Batchoy and dessert hub, Dulgies.

Bacolod. The City of Smiles is not only known for the Masskara festival but it is also popular with its tasty chicken inasal, paella and other Filipino delicacies. Just like Iloilo, Bacolod has a good variety of seafood too. When in Bacolod, it is worthwhile to visit Bob's for their pancit molo and giant burger, Aida's Manokan for chicken inasal and pala-pala place at 18th street.

Tarlac. I am just proud to say that when in the sugar capital of Luzon, we do not need to be in restaurants to consume sumptuous food  because we have the best cooks in the family. So, except for the kakanin from Betty's, everything is home made. It is surely made out of love.

Healthy food nourishes the body. It makes us strong and helps us get by our responsibilities and functions. Moreover, food made with of love and shared out of generosity nourishes our relationships. It brings solidarity and fulfillment as persons who live with and for others.
