Fiesta in Batangas Cavite is very close to the province of Batangas known for their heavenly brewed coffees and mouthwatering pastries. Luckily i got an invitation to attend a fiesta that day. After all its a Sunday i deserved a break right? For your information Philippines is often dubbed as the islands of thousand fiesta and every fiestas has two necessary ingredients: danse and food. On our way to the city of Tanauan Batangas, we encountered the street dancers. These are normally old woman doing a promise to their patron saint. The dance starts from the church and ends back in the church. What is nice during these fiestas is that everybody is welcome to eat at all houses even if you dont know anybody. We started by dropping by at my friends house...after which we were invited by their neighbor. Unfortunately my french eating habits have affected the size of my stomach, because i was only able to eat at the 4 first houses...too bad! But what is truly nice during fiesta, not only the good free food but the happy ambiance and most espeically the true warm hospitality of filipino people. Next time you drop by in any city in philippines check the calendar we might be celebrating a fiesta! Comments hum....
