Bahay Pastulan: Good Shepherd Goodies

by cyndymc

Bahay Pastulan is the retail outlet of the Good Shepherd Maryridge Convent. People who miss the goodies of the Baguio Good Shepherd Convent don't have to be in Baguio to buy them. Although packaging may be different, quality is the same. The ube jam doesn't taste exactly the same though; the nun said the difference in soil of Baguio and Tagaytay determine the taste of the ube. Oldtime favorites Strawberry Jam and Ube Jam are also available in Tagaytay convent. Whenever you are in Tagaytay, you can have these, plus the other goodies like ube dimples, ubepuno (ube jam topped with macapuno preserve), unsweetened strwberry jam, chocolate crinkles, peanut brittle,etc. They also sell native delicacies (like candied tamarind, toasted peanuts,etc.), pies & empanadas and other pastries, even tawilis sardines in olive oil. Depends on what you buy:*Ube Jam - P120 for 550 gms and a little bit more...

Rowena's: The Best For Your Sweet Tooth

by cyndymc

Local and foreign tourists go to Rowena's , Tagaytay's icon for mini-sized homebaked tarts and pastries. Though the shop is always filled with people, it remains to have a cozy atmosphere, an inviting place to rest and eat or have coffee at their adjacent cafe. They have ample parking space at the side of the store, and it is manned by alert security guards tasked with ensuring safety of customers and their parked vehicles. You can choose from their homebaked tarts (available in buko, mango, apple, ube and pineapple), blueberry and strawberry cheesecake, sylvannas and other pastries, provincial delicacies, preserves, and various "pasalubong" items.My present favorite is their mini "buko" pie and sylvannas. I loved their cheesecake and blueberry tarts, but I find them quite expensive now that the blueberry & cheesecake filling seems to be less than what it used to have. Less than...

Robinson's Supermarket: New Supermarket in Tagaytay

by cyndymc

Now, there's a supermarket in Tagaytay you can go to. This time, Robinson's beat SM! The Robinson's Supermarket was opened ahead of any SM outlet in Tagaytay. Strategically located at Aguinaldo Highway within the Summit Ridge Complex, Robinson's Supermarket is a convenient place to buy picnic items. Robinson's Supermarket is a good pit stop. There are restaurants beside it where you can order food-to-go so you need not go through the hustle of cooking food early in the house. There is also a Coffee Shop nearby to grab a cup of your choice of "wake-me-uppers". Most importantly, they have many restrooms which are very clean and spacious. groceries; mineral water, beverages, chips and other snack items for picnic The grocery items cost the same as Manila prices.

Mr Moo outlets: Fresh Milk worth every buck

by iclee

It is a small MMDA pink hued outlet found in the road if you take the Sta Rosa-Puting Kahoy route. You'll see this on your right side heading up to Tagaytay right before the multitude of fruit stands on your left (perched on the ravine planted with rows of pineapples). An english pie shop stands beside it and a Colette coconut pie across. One liter of refrigerated fresh carabao's milk is PHP150. They also have cows milk, goats milk/cheese, pastillas and soaps. I once tried the goat's milk soap that is chocolate flavored. It was ok but I needed the moisturization provided by Dove soap. Carabao's chocomilk PHP150/liter

The cheapest place to get your pasalubong is at the Mahogany Market. Fruits, vegetables, peanut brittle (panucha), etc. Panucha can be purchased at 6 pcs for 100 pesos. The fruits and vegetables are cheap too.

Good Shepherd Convent (Bahay Pastulan): Ube jam, Angel Cookies and other delicacies

by JaneCajuguiran

If you like Yam jam (Ube jam), Strawberry jam, macapuno, angel cookies, buko pie, etc, you can purchase them at the Good Shepherd Convent. This place is run by nuns and their scholars. They also sell halo-halo in a box. for 50 pesos you'll have one of the best tasting halo-halo. It has ube, macapuno, leche flan, beans, camote, nata, strawberry ice cream, and some other things. The thing is that they have no place for you to eat. That's why they come in boxes anyway. Buy your pasalubong here. They also sell religious articles such as rosaries, figurines, wood craft. Dependin on what you want to buy, but for about 300 pesos you can have a bottle of makanata (macapuno with nata de coco), ube jam and a pack of angel cookies.

Roadside fruit vendors: Fresh Fruits

by JaneCajuguiran

Fresh fruits are available to buyers and visitors. But you have to be aware of how much these are sold in your place of residence since you could end up paying the same and having the trouble of bringing them around. Although some fruits are cheaper indeed. The senorita bananas - sweet and not so expensive.

Amira's Buco Tart: Pasalubong

by asianbelle

Buco tart is a miniature variation of the popular buko pie of Laguna. While buko pie can be shared by 6 persons, a piece of buco tart is good for one person only. According to sources, Amira's started their buco tart business by providing for the requirements of religious/retreat houses in the area. Their buco tart became a favorite among retreat participants and by word-of-mouth, even non-retreat goers started looking for it. It is when the owners decided to put up a store to cater to locals and tourists. Contrary to its name, Amira's does not only sell buco tart, but other local delicacies as well. There is blueberry tart, mango tart, apple tart, among others. They also have cookies, cakes, breads and other "pasalubong". Definitely, you must try their buco tart! The tarts come in boxes of 6 or 9, depending on the flavor. A box costs between P100-P150.
