Ihaw-Ihaw and Coffee

All that walking made us hungry, but it was too early for lunch. The bigger problem was that we did not plan where to eat, and we were not familiar with the place. I picked a restaurant. I failed to mention to them that it was out of the way. But we got there and it was under construction. HAHA

Job realized that it was just the drive-thru. The main resto was just nearby. JV parked the car and checked it for possible leaks. We bumped into a rock while driving away from Mt. Kulis. 😭 Thank God, everything was ok! 👍

Eventually, we decided to check out another resto, Isaw Haus, one of the many restaurants we passed by.

Lunch at Isaw Haus

They had the ihaw-ihaw that we were looking for. And yes, it was cheaper here than the previous we considered. And so we ordered food, and ordered more. Except for the fishies, because it would take 20 to 30 minutes to prepare those. We missed our team mates who finish our food.

Sorry, not a lot of pictures again. Here's the aftermath

Next up, coffee. We needed to choose again so we thought it was probably better if we had some sort of system, like picking a random number and choosing the cafè based on that number. So sophisticated. Ok, 3. So we go to the third cafè, and if we don't like it, we go to the next third cafè.

HAHA. This time, our choice was perfect 👌

The straw was not made of plastic. Not sure if it was pasta but I had a hard time using it with the ice-blended coffee. My friends got iced coffee, and no issues for them.

Birds-of-paradise. The plants are big and look healthy.

Kape Natividad reminded me of the cafè we visited in Tagaytay. My friends ordered iced coffee, while I got the ice-blended version. The three of them started talking about how to interview for new team members, and so on. My mind was still busy with the many parallels between this trip, and the Tagaytay trip two years ago.

On our way home. We only missed one u-turn. Yey! Also just to kill boredom, we had strange Q&As, like what role you would have if you were stranded on an island with strangers. 🤣 Hmm.. JV blurted out that I don't know how to do anything. I had no clapback for that. Acceptance made things easier.
