San Vicente's Local Food and Drinks Fair

-
The LGU-SAN VICENTE through the Office of the Municipal Tourism initiated an activity which gathers its local chefs, cooks or those who are into cooking and/or into preparing beverages to not only sell their products but to create local dishes (main ingredients are just found in the vicinity) and drinks that could be called  their own; something unique that is NOT FOUND in other places, and could be eventually marketed and be part of its Food Tourism.
Competition in different food and beverage categories were very interesting and exciting as the participants  showcased their very own recipes in the public.  
Check out these dishes during the first day of the fair:

APPETIZERS:
MAIN COURSE 


     Fisherman's Red Catch

 
    Seafood Rice in Bamboo
  DESSERT 
       
        Banana Sticky Rice

Looking forward to different beverages tomorrow! 😊

Inandeng River

The name Inandeng is from the name of two sitios in Barangay New Agutaya, San Vicente, Palawan, where Inandeng River traverses; Inarayan and Landing. It is 2.5km long, navigatable by smalls boats and kayaks, but only 1.9km is most often navigated by the locals, particularly the fishermen in the bgy.  The end of the river meets the Long Beach, the longest white-sand beach in the Philippines.  What attract me the most about the river are the mangrove area which is believed to be one of the big help in the barangay especially during the super typhoon Odette and the coconut trees that added beauty along the wider area of the river.  Sadly, a lot of the mangrove trees in the area were devastated during the super typhoon, probably the really old ones. However, it is fortunate enough that there's enough left for the people to adore while navigating the river. The LGU-San Vicente has already a plan to develop a River Cruise in the site, where every tourist can enjoy the river and...

Bato ni Ningning

                  📸 Chuck Maquiso Trivia:  In 2015, while I was on my recovery period after my surgery, I only stayed at home for months. During those days, I got nothing else to do but read books, watch movies and for the longest time, watch TV shows.  Because of the daytime series, "Ning2x," on ABS-CBN that time, I started to wonder where they filmed the pilot episodes of the show especially the site where there's a huge rock on the top of the knoll. I found the view really lovely!  Unexpectedly,  after a year and 7 months when I could travel again, I visited my friend/colleague in San Vicente whom I hadn't seen for a long time. She told me that we were going somewhere where it was one of the shooting locations of a television show. That's all! No other clues! hahaha   Can you imagine how I felt when I saw the place I dreamed of seeing but not knowing its location? hehehe It felt so surreal! I was overjoyed. ?...

Puting Bato @Lutopan, Toledo City, Cebu

Mountain climbing is something I got interested in when I first overcame my fear of heights. But our climb to Puting Bato was an unexpected one, that we were not able to wear even a proper footwear. 👣The ascent After about a 25-minute trek from the national highway, this was still pretty okay for the knees. 👌    But then..... Surprisingly!  Still thinking of backing out or not? 😂        Go go go! 💪      We (only 3 of us) never thought the climb would be like that.       No retreat, no surrender!             💪 😅      Finally reached the peak!        Down below 👇  When you're on top, you can see the mining industry in the area, Carmen Copper Corporation (CCC).        Relaxing on top while          ...
