Since we were all there together, we decided to have Christmas dinner and do our Secret Santa gift exchange there. Our usual Baguio haunt is Cafe by the Ruins but this time, we decided to try Hill Station at Casa Vallejo instead.
What we ate:
Complementary bread with olive oil and dukkah
Chorizo with bread...mmmmmmmm....super yum.
Tuna Tataki
Spinach Artichoke Dip (Good but I've had better!)
Our Mains:
Sarah and I had the Cocido Mexicana, a hearty beef stew with cinnamon and fried bananas on the side. It hits the spot when paired with mashed potatoes!
Abdul had the Short Rib Ragu with Fettucine---with shaved bittersweet chocolate on top.
Margaux had the baked salmon
Sorry, we started eating after and I didn't get to take any more photos! haha! The food was generally good, although service was a bit slow, considering the place wasn't even packed. I liked the whole look of the place- it fit December in Baguio perfectly.
The rest of the time, we:
Exchanged Secret Santa Presents!
Went to a pre-Wedding Barbeque
Went Ukay-ing!
Went to Andrea and Darwin's wedding
Group photo!
Baguio again in January, but first, Sydney for the Holidays!
