Almost Tagaytay
FINALLY!!!! SEMBREAK!!!! I am so sorry for not being able to post for a long time. J School kept me busy but it did not stop me from going different places and trying new stuff –food. J
Last, last month my family and I had a long weekend and we intended to spend it in Tagaytay [known for cool weather and the Taal volcano]. Our family enjoys going to Tagaytay because of the wonderful scenery, light breeze, and delicious foods. This particular long weekend was due to a holiday, and so most people were also out and about. The traffic was really heavy going to Tagaytay but we kept going till it was an hour past lunch time (12 noon). We were hungry and we wanted to get down since our legs were cramped in the car. Luckily we stopped by this wonderful new place: Nuvali.
Nuvali was like a new city being built it was such a pretty place… so we stopped there for lunch. There were so many new awesome restaurants there but we went to John Bamboo. They served yummy Indonesian dishes. For our lunch we ate Tumis Kangkong Dengan Tempe, Beef Empal with Balado Sauce, and mixed Satay. The first dish I did not eat because I am allergic to soy products [bummer!]. But I did eat the Beef Empal and the Satay. They were booth spicy but in a good way. The beef was tender and juicy. J I loved the satay because the presentation was cool [they served it to you in a rectangular brick that had coal in it]. It looked like a mini barbecue grill. I also loved it because the seafood, chicken and beef were juicy and tasty and these are qualities that sometimes lacking in barbecued food. For dessert, they gave us a complimentary apple pie J [thank you John Bamboo].

After lunch we explored Nuvali [we decided to just stay there since traffic was still bad]. There so many things one can do while there. They had fish feeding which was so fun and wild [yes, even fish feeding can be wild J]. They also have bike rentals if you want to bike around the place. One of their main attraction was the boat ride, where they let you ride a boat in their man-made lake J.
