There is nothing wrong in showing care for someone

What’s wrong is expecting them to do the same.

Monaco Suites de Boracay

You think I’m happy because there are so many emotions I choose not to show.

Nonetheless, I was a happy pauper who found sanctuary in contemporary Mediterranean-inspired villas with a dolphin-shaped pool and a live cinema of water sports adventure fit for a prince.

Happy New Year!

Pangihan Cave

“They know where happiness lies, not in a cave,
but in love and the freedom to give and take
what has been there all along.”
- Amy Tan

With stalactites, stalagmites, crystals and a plethora of bats, every chamber of Pangihan is a world of wonder.

From Caticlan airport or jetty port, Pangihan in Malay, Aklan could be reached via 15 minute tryke ride (P100). Entrance fee is P50 and hiring of tour guide costs P150. Spelunking in Pangihan makes a good prelude to your Boracay escapade.

Tourne by Chef Sandralyn Hataway

Tournée (pronounced tour-nay) is French for the word "turned." The term refers to a method of cutting and peeling root vegetables into oblong, seven-sided football-like shapes. Aside from its aesthetic element, the classic French technique helps vegetables to cook evenly.

Dear Chef Sandra,

Most of the time, I use carrots and potatoes as main ingredients whenever I cook, but I never tournee-d them.

I love the whimsical feel of your place, the eye-candy writings on the wall, and the clean open kitchen. I love how you and your team painstakingly prepare and arrange the food; they not only made my palate merry but my eyes, as well. But above all, I love how you unabashedly showed love to your staff. I was secretly watching when you gave them presents and I saw how such small gesture made them feel happy.  

I was there a day before Christmas. And I didn’t regret that a few hours before my flight for my holiday break, I chose to spend it at Tourne.

They say money can’t buy happiness. But it can buy your red velvet cake and that is like happiness.

Sometimes, you need to forget people you love just so you can go on living

“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things – to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.”

- Mary Oliver

Balay Dionisia

A cozy place with crystal clear swimming pool, jacuzzi, and amoy-simoy ng Pasko na hangin, Balay Dionisa is ideal for romantic get-away or intimate private party like our traditional PPRD Christmas Party.

In behalf of PPRD, we thank the generosity of our hosts, Nicole, and Mr. and Ms. Pangilinan. The place is cute and the food (especially alimango, hipon, tionalang manok, chicken inasal, tinapa, buko pandan with lychee and Tequilla Rose) made us all merry-full. Happy holidays!
