Baguio Bliss
Baguio
Even as a child, I always had this affinity for Baguio. My family and I would spend the New Year here and there just came a point where many preferred celebrating at home. I continued on with the tradition and made sure that when I have the luxury of time and extra cash, I'll get the next available bus ticket and find my way back to Baguio.

Vizco's is Strawberry Cake heaven. 🍰For less than 100 php, you already have a slice of their bestseller. People literally flock to their branch along Session Road just for this precious dessert.

From streetfood, to rare finds from their ukay pile, the night market along Harrison Road is home to quality cheap finds. The later you arrive in the area, the more stalls are open.

When one speaks of Baguio, Good Taste is always in the picture. Serving you Chinese and Filipino food is what they do best. The place is always packed, but it takes a little patience to get a table because their branch along Otek St. has two floors!

All book lovers should make Mt. Cloud Bookshop a part of their itinerary. It's a quaint space for anyone who's interested to get their hands on a local gem or maybe a rare book. The last time I visited Mt. Cloud, they even had some old New York Times magazines and print ads!

There are tons of branches of Dencio's in Manila, but this one in particular feels extra homey. It's probably the cold weather mixed with warm Filipino food. ❄️🏡 I just love the vibe here!

Their traditional blend is perfect for the typical Baguio weather. Be prepared for a stronger taste than the usual instant hot chocolate drink, because their mix is made from real cocoa. They also have classic Filipino desserts like Bibingka and Champorado with tuyo, freshly served. ☕

2Food is good, but I go here for the milkshakes. 🥛🍓 They're super thick and creamy, just how a milkshake should be. Their flavors range from strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla.

2The last time I was here was during their opening. Literally the whole gang (even the Rana kids) went with us. I'm not quite sure how much this place has changed since 2014 but I do remember tasty flavored beers, great views, and heaters surrounding the place.

When my band friends went on an album provincial tour, this was one of their stops. Old Baguio Boys reminds me a lot of Mow's Bar in Quezon City because of its underground setting. One for the books!
