A few hours in Vigan

Day 4
Feb 11, 2013
Vigan

The next morning, we ate breakfast at Cafe Uno, a small charming coffee shop found right beside Grandpa's Inn. I ordered longganisa and hot chocolate since these were highly recommended by a few blogs I read about Vigan.

The rest of the morning was spent by my friends in Calle Crisologo to buy pasalubong  while I stayed at the hotel to rest. Later in the morning, we visited St. Paul's Cathedral, a major religious landmark, before heading to Cafe Leona for Vigan Bagnet and embutido.

And then, we are back in Manila later that evening... 3.5 days were definitely not enough to enjoy everything Ilocos has to offer - we did not even have time to enjoy Pagudpod beach. We will definitely be back in a year or 2... or 3. I already miss the food while writing about this trip...
