Iloilo – Breakthrough vs. Tatoy’s

Though far from the city proper, we went to these two famous Iloilo restaurants to enjoy the food!

Lunch courtesy of Tatine and company (thanks so much!) at Breakthrough, with wine to add an elegant touch to the loads of food. It was also Ninang’s early birthday celebration.

For dinner, we went to Tatoy’s, still around “Norte” (according to
Journey who I met along the beach earlier at lunch). Food in Tatoy’s was much more delicious and more reasonably priced, but view in Breakthrough was better.

Kids from Norte down south ;)

Ronald, the younger kid and only eight years old, is the more outgoing of the two. I told him I'll upload their picture in the Internet. He said that they have a computer but without an Internet connection. But when he grows up, he can have access to this virtual world and he'll search for his picture.

Taken in the beach along Breakthrough restaurant in Iloilo, sa lugar na kung tawagin ay "Norte," sabi ni Ronald, from my recent trip to Iloilo (and Guimaras), on September 1, 2008.

Really beautiful!

Let me make this an introduction to documenting my recent Guimaras trip. A shot from a fast-moving vehicle, there's a rainbow over the field.

What a wonderful world ;)

Over the next few days, photos and text on The Guimaras Trip, August 30 to September 3 (and 4), 2008.
