Fat Summer In The North

052612~ DAY 1

Weeks ago we were invited by our friend Osio to go to his hometown in Bogo City, Cebu for his post grad celebration/summer getaway and feast. Bogo is a small town in the North 3-4 hours away from Cebu City. After weeks of planning and organizing this trip, only 6 of us made it. Whatevs, it was still fun. :)

We left the city at around 11AM already. We were late for some reasons.

Then along the way, we had a side trip to San Miguel to drop off Elvis’ mom and his niece. The place was pure nature. So peaceful.

Then finally we arrived in Bogo at around 4PM already. We went straight to Osio’s house to have late lunch. They were expecting us to arrive at lunch time so they prepared the food so early. Again, for some reasons, we were very late. :P

Then we checked in at Hisoler Beach Resort. It was just a small resort but it’s pretty. :)

We went night swimming in the pool after dinner and made friends with the cute grandsons of the owner, Keon and Khaz! I have no pictures of them whyyyy.

Then at 8PM, Jett and Kristy arrived! Jett had culinary class the whole day and Kristy got off from work in the morning so they came really late.

It was the bisperas so we went to the pier to chill and hang out with Osio’s friends. There were so many people it’s crazy! Cars could hardly get through!

And to end the Day 1 post, here’s an epic candid shot I’d like to share. :)

Will post Day 2 tomorrow!!! It was 3x more fun! :D

WE WERE SO HUNGER GAMES THAT NIGHT

052112 WAS ALL ABOUT GETTING FAT…….. FOR FREE. HA!! :)

Thanks because Elvis was bored again and he had lots of money (and he still has) and he wanted to share his blessings. With us. Awwee. So he called at around 9PM and that’s where it started. He was with Ralph and then they picked up Mara and then me. THEN WE STARTED EATING.

First, we went to Dolce Cafe. Located at Lahug, Cebu City, near Anzani Restaurant before reaching Marco Polo Plaza. It was my first time there. First impression was, “Is this a place for conyo people??” We were kinda hesitant to go in but then, “Nope! Not really.”. The place looks really nice and clean but too bright!!

dolcecafebellefleur was their wifi password. I don’t get it. Sweetcafebeautifulflower??? How did they manage to put all these words together? Doesn’t make sense but yeah ok, fine. Haha!

We tried this one! Well, I don’t know how to write a review about food and talk about the details like the texture and sweetness and moisture and etcetera, to be honest. All I know is that there’s food that tastes good and there’s food that tastes bad. And some are just okay. I’m not a cake person so for me, the Red Velvet Cheesecake was… okaaaaaay :)

Next, we went to another pastry shop. The Sweet Little Things. I never thought I’d come back after Mara, Ryan and I broke 2 saucers the first time we went there. I’d rather not tell the whole story but anyway, doesn’t matter, I came back and I was happy eating my one and only favorite cupcake!!! :D  

Mudpie cupcakeeeee yeaaayyyyy :))))) IT’S REALLY REALLY DELISH~

Sweet Little Things and Sprockets Cafe are neighbors, LOL, and they’re friends. So we were allowed to buy Milk Teas from Sprockets and bring them over to SLT. Btw, you can visit SLT at… nah just Google it.

HEY IT’S ME

Moreover…

We wanted something salty so we went to a Convenience Store in IT Park to buy Lays and Dingdong. Lol

AND I SPOTTED THE YUMMIEST OF THEM ALL SITTING ON THE MAGAZINE RACK. EVERYTHING WAS IRRELEVANT THAT VERY MOMENT I LAID EYES ON THAT PICTURE.

After finishing the junkfoods, I thought we’re good already. BUT HEY NO.  

Went to McDo IT Park and was shocked to see Elvis buying all these. WTH? SRSLY? But we had no choice. We couldn’t say NO. But srsly???? #gluttony

And that’s it. Nothing much happened. Yeah yeah. Hahaha. But really, thank you so much Elvis, Ralph and Mara for this night!!!! Especially to Elvis, our ever dearest friend, for adding few more pounds to our weight! Amaaaaaazing hunger games night! :D
