Oh My Gulay! What a Surprise in Baguio!
On September - 10 - 2010
From the BenCab museum, we took a break before finally proceeding to Oh My Gulay restaurant that evening.
Located in Session Road at the topmost floor of La Azotea Building, it is a vegetarian restaurant owned by Filipino artist Kidlat Tahimik. He wasn’t there when we visited, but the surroundings easily made it obvious that it was owned by an artist.
Oh My Gulay’s location gives you a good view of the Baguio skyline–yes, even SM Baguio’s in view.
It was already around 7:30 when we got there. We were quite lucky because we didn’t know that the restaurant closed at 8:30 (Oh My Gulay is open from 11am-8:30pm). Good thing we still managed to order food especially since we were already starving at the time.

BenCab Museum – More Than Just Great Artworks
On September - 1 - 2010
First, another excuse (remember the first one?). I got neck-deep in work during the latter part of the week last week after relaxing at Astoria Boracay (we’ll get to that in the future).
Now we return to regular programming.
After our quick trip to the Mines View Park, Trish and I headed to the BenCab museum. Okay, we passed by SM Baguio first but there’s no story there so we fast forward.
The BenCab Museum is a museum owned by National Artist Ben Cabrera, better known as BenCab. Many of his works are displayed there, but there’s more to the museum that bears the artist’s name.

Mines View Park – Chevy Impala and Tourists Galore
On August - 25 - 2010
Picture, picture! Some of the people who had their photos taken at the Mines View Park.
The place we stayed in was just a few hundred meters from the Mines View Park so we decided to check out the place for some ‘pasalubong’ (presents and whatnot) to take home to Manila.
Stores near the Mines View Park.
But instead of checking out the usual fare of peanut brittle and other sweets, a red Chevy Impala (I reckon an early 60′s model) immediately grabbed my attention.
