On October 31, the 34th edition of Milo Marathon will be held in Puerto Princesa City.  You can run 3K, 5K, 10K and 21K. It would be better to book your tickets now and plan your trip. A 3-day vacation is Puerto Princesa City is a must for every Filipino. I'm doing an itinerary for those who are interested to join the race in Palawan. Just revisit the site for more details.

For starters, let me share you some food-tripping (carbo-loading) while in paradise.

10 Masabor (Yummy) Foods in Palawan

Food tripping in Puerto Princesa City? Coffee? Breakfast? Lunch? Merienda? Dinner? Booze nights? Talk about healthy, cheap, fresh and "masabor" (delicious and yummy) food in Palawan. Value for money and Chill-axed ambiance.

10. Tuna Pandesal at Baker's Hill- A nice breakfast with the view of Honda bay at Mitra's ranch. You buy some bread and drinks from Baker's hill, eat ad enjoy the seascape at the Ranch. Entrance to both is free. Pandesal, P12.

9. Curry Pasta and Pizza Sosyal at Neva's Pizza- A very cozy and nostalgic place to have your lunch. Painting and house music would give you a relax feeling. Dine at the 2nd floor. Pasta, P70; Pizza, 70-140

8. Chao Long and French Bread at Bona's- A Vietnamese treat at Palawan. Rice noodles with beef stew partner with French bread (available in pork, chicken, beef, and etc.). Chaolong, P40-P45; French Bread, P25.


7. Garlic Crabs at Badjao Seafront- Best enjoyed during the sunset. They have a a great list of fresh seafood dishes. What a great way to feast on the food while the sea breeze refreshes your face. Come there before the sunset for a romantic dinner. Crabs, P200-250 (good for 2-3).


6. Kare-Kare Seafood at Bilao't Palayok- I love Kare-Kare so I would definitely know what's unorthodox and not. Shrimps, clams, squid, fish in a peanut-base paste is a feast to my eyes and tummy. Do I need to explain more? Let's eat, no let's feast! Eat like a king. Kare-Kare, P250 (good for 2-3 persons).
