Food trip at "Santander, Kainan ng Bayan, Inato lang, Ihaw-ihaw"

 Last July 14, 2012  Davao Bloggers  in cooperation with Davao City Tourism Office held a day tour entitled "DAVAO LIFE IS HERE DAVAO BLOGGERS DAY TOUR". Participants were divided into four groups and I was able to join  "The Calinan thrill -seekers" group composed of 10 bloggers and  photographer. Here's the last   part of my blog:

Before we headed back we had our last stop at "SANTANDER, Kainan ng Bayan, Inato Lang, Ihaw-Ihaw" owned by Barangay Captain of Tugbok Mr. Angelico Santander. They served different dishes of Hito (Catfish) and native chicken at a reasonable price. All you have to do  is  buy live Catfish  per kilo and have it cooked.  You may choose from their variety of dishes like Deep Fried Hito, Adobong Hito, Sinigang na Hito, Ginataan na Hito, Grilled Hito, and Paksiw na Hito.

DAVAO LIFE IS HERE: Sul Orchids and Malagos Garden Resort

Last July 14, 2012  Davao Bloggers  in cooperation with Davao City Tourism Office held a day tour entitled "DAVAO LIFE IS HERE DAVAO BLOGGERS DAY TOUR". Participants were divided into four groups and I was able to join  "The Calinan thrill -seekers" group composed of 10 bloggers and  photographer. Here's the second  part of my blog:

After we visited the japanese historical sites our next stopover was at "SUL ORCHIDS" a five hectares orchid farm  located in Tugbok, Davao City. To those who loves orchid it is a place you must  visit here in Davao City. They have many varieties of orchids like Vanda Strap, Mokara, Denrobium and many more.

Lunch was served at  "MALAGOS GARDEN RESORT" located in Brgy. Malagos, Baguio District, Davao City. After a sumptuous buffet  lunch  the resort gave us the opportunity to tour around the resort. We made a visit at the Goat House, Fed the birds, released some butterflies and made an ocular inspection to their cottages.
