Flip-It Burger - A Must-Have Burger Experience in Imus, Cavite

Hungry? Casual dining with burger-fan friends within the neighborhood? Flip-Eat Burger is the one for you. They have the best tasting burgers in this side of town and one of the very few burger places I can highly recommend.

I have tried Flip-Eat Burgers only for a couple of times and I really enjoyed every visit. The patty is thick and 100% pure beef and was cooked perfectly! Well, finally a good burger!

So, for my 48th birthday last October 2015, I decided to celebrate the occasion with my office friends from SM and take them out here where I am sure they will enjoy and have fun with exclusivity. The staff as well as the chef/owner, Chef Patrick, were more than delighted to reserve the entire restaurant for us.

The outlet is so small that we were fortunate enough to be accommodated on a Sunday afternoon. It was a delightful birthday celebration spent terrifically with good music, some funny games and trivia quizzes, and of course, the great tasting burgers, not to mention their delectable pasta dishes. You will definitely leave the place satisfied.

To the wonderful and friendly staff - many many thanks for the little surprise and simply, providing us with great burgers and time.

National Cultural Treasure Series - OUR LADY OF THE ASSUMPTION PARISH CHURCH, Maragondon, Cavite - PH-40-0002-NCT

The Our Lady of the Assumption Parish Church (Iglesia Parroquial de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción), commonly known as Maragondon Church, is the only heritage structure in the municipality of Maragondon, Cavite, Philippines declared by the National Museum as a National Cultural Treasure. Of 17th century vintage, the church was built by the Dominican friars. It has a large convent made of different antique woods and bricks.

Maragondon Church is unique among Jesuit churches for its proportion. The façade is narrow but tall, not squatty as in other churches. To the left of the façade is the taller bell tower with no clear divisions between the stories. It is a single quadrilateral shaft tapering upwards ending with finials at the four corners and surmounted by a rounded roof. The façade is chastely ornamented with the tapering buttresses supporting it. (Wikipedia)

LakbayLoyd Lighthouse Series 02 : FARO DE ISLA CORREGIDOR, Corregidor Island, Cavite

My experience with this lighthouse is that, I never knew that this is a lighthouse. All I know is that it's one of the a war monuments in Corregidor Island, with a view deck for tourists to get a glimpse of  the bay surrounding the island, a museum and souvenir shops for visitors. I also thought of it as a church's bell tower because of its cross-shaped windows, and that's it!

Until I read about it in one of the fellow blogger's site, I finally realized that it is a working lighthouse, to my surprise haha!

Yes, this lighthouse is historically relevant. It was built n 1835 to guide ships entering the Manila Bay. It was damaged, though, during the World War II and was rebuilt using some of its original components from ruins (good job!). Probably the most unique in terms of design, the lighthouse's main octagonal tower stood right in the center of the 12-sided base.

The Corregidor tour costs around 2,000 pesos inclusive of buffet lunch. The tickets can be bought online from Sun Cruises Tours or directly from their ticketing office at the CCP Complex.

This is my first visit in Corregidor Island as an adult and never knew what this structure's significance to the history was. Maybe the tour operators might need to include explaining the importance on this Spanish historical landmark - aside from the American ruins and Japanese invasion orientation for that whole day duration of the packaged tour.
