Burnham Park
We headed out to Cafe By The Ruins for dinner at 7pm. There was already a long line of people when we got there and when I tried to reserve a table, I was told that reservations was already closed. We decided to just eat there at breakfast the next day. Since it’s holiday and there were lots of bakasyonistas from Manila, the other restaurants like Good Taste and Sizzling Plate have long lines of people waiting for dinner as well.
I don’t know how we got to Burnham Park but we did. We strolled around and took photos while thinking of a place to eat.
We strolled some more and took photos until we saw this line of Ihaw-Ihaw Stores across the park.
That’s where we had a dinner of Grilled Pork Belly, Papaitan, and Grilled Fish.
OOTD
I know she should’ve worn this while picking strawberries from Strawberry Fields but she already had an outfit the next day. It was bought just that afternoon at Mines View Park.
It has a terno strawberry wallet too!
Tambay at McDonalds
Since we weren’t able to eat at Cafe By the Ruins for dinner, we made sure to be there early to make sure we have a table for breakfast. The thing was we were too early, and Cafe By The Ruins was still closed. It was really really cold that we went to nearby McDonald’s to have hot chocolate while waiting.
Ykaie decided to have a Happy Meal Pancake breakfast instead of just hot chocolate…. She got the Tom Egg Cup toy to go with her meal.
On the way to Cafe By The Ruins….
Strawberry Fields
After a satisfying breakfast, we took a taxi to Strawberry Fields. One kilo of Strawberries costs ₱150 – ₱170 but if you’re picking it, it jumps up to ₱400 per kilo.
Ykaie wanted to pick her own Strawberries so sis took her to the field while peanutbutter♥ and I checked out the veggies and other items being sold in the nearby stores.
Ykaie had a lot of fun picking out her strawberries…
Check out this odd shaped one…..
A kilo of carefully chosen strawberries….
Oh how I wish Strawberry Fields is just nearby! I would have loved to eat strawberries every single day…
Did you visit the popular Sitio La Presa? Just curious. Haha. I heard super lamig daw sa Baguio recently. Brrrrrr…. 🙂
Super lamig nga! Naku, we weren’t able to go to La Presa kasi kulang na kami sa oras!
So cool to be picking strawberries directly from a strawberry patch. I’ve yet to try doing that with the kids.
It’s really a nice experience.
We were there last week, super lamig.
Oh, I want to go back nga.
Love the experience, and thanks for sharing! I’ve been dreaming of going to Baguio. BTW, your kid is so cute.
Thanks Kristine.
I wanted to experience strawberry picking but every time I go to Baguio, strawberry are not yet ready for harvest. What is the best time to go there?
During January and February sis!
This made me want to go to Baguio even more! How cute naman the strawberry hat and wallet!
heehee.. ang cute nga!
As usual, your post made me go crazy over Baguio and strawberry picking! The last time we went there was…….. can’t remember anymore! Already that long! hehehe.. Maybe, summer. If funds and time permit us! 🙂
I really hope you can go there this Summer.
Great photos! The last time I’ve been to Baguio was 1986. I think we really have to visit Baguio again, together with our kids. Hopefully, we can go there this year.
WOW! ang tagal na. You should visit this year.
Wow strawberries. I hope we can visit Baguio one of these days. I wish I have more free time 🙁
I’m sure you’ll find free time in the Summer.
Haven’t been into Baguio. Oh how I so love to visit the place with the whole family. Great experience for sure.
It is a one of a kind experience.
would you believe that i have never been to baguio my entire life? this one is in my bucket list! how i wish hubby and i will have time to go there this year. gusto ko maranasa. gano kalamig don!
Go during Deember to February,, super lamig.
Traveling with family is really the best! Baguio is one of the places I want to take my children to. My husband and I went there before we got married and I would like my children to experience and enjoy Baguio with us too. I really hope I can convince hubby though. He is such a kuripot, it would be quite a challenge to get him on board!
I’m sure if you earn enough budget, he’ll take you there.
I bet your kids had so much fun picking up strawberries, I love all the pictures you shared and it look like a wonderful time with family.
We had a wonderful time, Melgie.
When we went to Baguio last March, I wanted to pick strawberries. Thanks for these tips. I want to try those cafes that you mentioned. We ate fastfood (I know! gasp!) when we were in Baguio.
You’ll love Cafe By The Ruins, I’m sure.
Oh I miss that place. When I was in college, I always visit this place every year because I get to attend different seminars.
It’s time you visit Baguio again.
Your post makes me more excited to go back to Baguio! My family and I are going there this holy week for a fellowship. 😀
I’m sure you’ll enjoy the pasyal on the side.
I want to go to Baguio and pick fresh strawberries too.
I’m sure your son would enjoy it.
Baguiooooo! I so love that place! I could probably spend hours in the Strawberry Fields just picking strawberries and basking in the sunlight. Nakaka-miss!
We love Strawberry Fields!
Baguio!!! The last time I was there was 7 years ago. Hubby decided not to bring a jacket (since he said he doesn’t think it can get cold in the tropics) but he was welcomed by a 7C temperature. Ayun, nilamig ng husto.
This post makes me want to go back – with the kids this time. 🙂
Baguio is really a nice place to take your kids to..
The picking of Strawberry look so fun and I’m sure my kids will love to experience it. You got a really photos Sis. Thanks for sharing your fun moments with family.
Thanks Melgie.
Your daughter’s OOTD is so cute! I love that Strawberry Hat!
Thanks!
