Maybe it’s the chill in the air, but everything seems to put me in a cozy mood that our inner “ferson” demands a staycation! Feeling the same way? Why not try out the city’s newest accommodation option, the Lotus Blu Hotel Naga!
Almost immediately after the Peñafrancia fiesta high that kicked the city back into a sense of normalcy, LCC Malls launched their grand opening for their newest branch in the city.
On the hunt for that sweet and tangy mix that a frozen yogurt can offer? There is something about it that is just perfect during these hot bouts of weather. If cooling off is your aim, then a refreshing llaollao frozen dessert is what you need!
It can be difficult to find dependable and reliable Filipino food sometimes. You crave for a classic that’s made just right and yet it’s something that you’ve never had before. A contradiction you say? Not at Mesa!
The Peñafrancia festivities are right around the corner. The hustle and bustle of the city is kind of nostalgic in a way. The energy and excitement is palpable. You have to understand, it has been a while since we got to celebrate Ina in all her glory ever since the pandemic started. Though the celebrations have waned, the Pilgrims of Ina haven’t, and they still frequent notable and significant sites during the Peñafrancia season. One of these sites is where it all starts for the Peñafrancia festival: the Peñafrancia Shrine, the original home of Ina.
We don’t know about you, but sometimes we’d like to indulge and treat myself to a fancy bagel breakfast. Problem is, it is so hard to get a hold of some. But not anymore! If nobody got me, we know that Chef & Baker does!
As a young lad wandering the streets of Taft, I’d always see restaurants dotted along the avenue that I wouldn’t normally see back in Naga. I would envy my friends who lived there as they would have access to a whole plethora of food places and bars and lounges. But now, things are certainly changing. Gone are the days where you had to make the trip to Pasay just to get a taste of a J.Co, a Zarks, or even Starbucks for example. Big companies are looking toward the Bicol Region, especially Naga, as prime real estate for new business ventures and experiences (just like Filinvest and their Futura Monte project). But one of these new arrivals is one that I never expected: Domino’s Pizza!
In the many churches that can be found in the city, there must always be the one place you can trace where it all began. Such a place exists in the city, one that you might be inclined to visit, with its deep history and roots ingrained, with it being one of the first cathedrals ever built in the city after the then Diocese of Caceres was founded. This is the Naga Metropolitan Cathedral.
There is something to be said about laying back and sipping wine out of a fancy glass. That very act alone speaks to us a lot; craving that unique wine feeling. It makes us feel fancy, luxurious, and that signature buzz that wine tends to give off. So if you feel like sipping wine with a pairing of delicious dishes, come on down to the Cellar Bar, Kitchen & Deli!
A lot of home kitchens have been popping up recently. The pandemic has given a lot of people free time. Time to figure things out, learn new skills, and find new passions. And with that in mind, Chef Artist is definitely born from that spark of being able to do something new.
