These are the pasalubong that I bought in Bohol to bring with me back to Manila. Not included in the picture are the calamay of which I only bought two because they were really heavy and these didn’t even make it to Manila.

Back in Cebu from my “backpacking” in Bohol, I left my luggage with my sister and having the day all to myself (my sister had to work that day), I decided to have lunch at Casa Verde at two in the afternoon. Having heard so much about it, well, recommended by friends and the high-praises, I decided to finally go check out the place.

This is a totally separate post because I want to highlight the buffets at Boracay Regency. It was definitely a feast. We availed of their 3D/2N package and translated, that meant that we have 2 free buffet breakfasts and 2 free buffet dinners to go with the package. Read that? Free! Enough of me grinning, I’ll let the pictures do the talking. Prepare to drool.

Dinner was the first buffet meal we had at Boracay Regency. Truth be told, I was hesitant to take pictures at first thus the quality of the pictures. Just click on the image to enlarge.

I was in Boracay (my first time) last August together with my bf and we stayed at the Boracay Regency. By far, it was the best resort that I’ve been to (Just shows how much I have yet to see!). It was lean season that time so the rates were on a promo and on top of that, they also had a locals package which we availed of. This already included free round-trip transfers, welcome drinks, and buffet breakfast and dinner for two. By far, among the resorts that I’ve checked and canvassed (I spent a lot of time researching this), Boracay Regency offered the best value for money. It sure wasn’t cheap but it sure was worth it. I had lots of pictures of the resort, the food, and Boracay in general that I just have to break these down.

Immediately after landing at the Caticlan airport, there was a Boracay Regency representative waiting for us at the arrival area and ushered us to their waiting van. It was the driver who carried our luggages for us. The van took us from the airport to the port which was actually just several hundred meters away (walkable), didn’t even take 5 minutes to get there. We got off to move to the bangka which will take us across the sea to Boracay. They had mineral water and wet wipes waiting for us.

It was nearly 6:00 p.m. and I had the evening all to myself. I decided to go out, see Tagbilaran City, buy some essentials at the nearest supermarket, and grab some dinner. I asked the receptionist where the nearest supermarket was and she pointed me to Alturas Supermarket. Armed with my Bohol EZ map, I set out on foot to find where this Alturas Supermarket is.
