    On our second day in Palawan, we had our breakfast on the top level of the pension house. They server different meals per day so you have to ask or check for the menu in the lobby. For that day, I think we had the option of vegetable omelette, continental breakfast and burger and chips.…

    Our family’s first day of Palawandering! Hahaha. =) We came in 2 batches since I can’t book 17 pax online. I even made a mistake while booking only to get the lowest fare price. Eventually, I learned that all I have to do is call someone from the airline’s call center and I can book…

    “KaLui Restaurant – The most famoust and best value restaurant in Palawan!” – that’s their tagline which I definitely agree! They have a native wood ambiance with colorful art decors and native stuffs. You can see shells, masks, water bins, paintings, fruits, flowers all over the place.

    Since it was our last day and no scheduled tour for us. This is a day for shopping of pasalubongs and souveniers. The locals told us that we should be buying in the market instead of going to souvenir shops like those in the “Tiangee Tiangee” because it’s cheaper there. However, if you don’t like…

We had crocodile adobado (Php 300) for dinner and chicken teriyaki (Php 140) in case we don’t like the taste of the crocs. It turns out that…
