It’s my second morning here in Liliw and for two days in a row, I’ve woken up early. Right now it’s 6 AM, I usually wake up in Cebu at 8:30 AM or later. Lol.  =) The town comes alive at an early hour. The mamang magpuputo just passed the side of our house,putt, putt,…

March 24, 2011 By Cille Anne 5 Comments

Cafe Arabela Liliw

One of our earlier dates, titus & I, was in Arabela’s Café in Liliw, Laguna, with my chaperon/brother nicko hahha. Arabela Café serves pastries, steaks, pizza, cakes & coffee in an intimate setting.

SHOEDOWN: Carcar vs Liliw Espadrilles and Sandals

And if I compare the produce of these two towns, when it comes to any abaca laced sandals or wedges, I have to give it to Liliw made.

Liliw ladies espadrilles’ price range is from P230 to P300 comparable to that of  Carcar made espadrilles.

Carcar famous espadrilles!

I am a proud Cebuana but I just have to lament the fact that Carcar produces so many cheap sandals that easily disintegrated, these are the ones you see all
