Probably the best thing I missed about home, my Dad’s version of KBL — Kadios, Baboy (Pork), and Langka (Jackfruit), made from fresh Kadios ang Langka. To taste is to believe!

Lou Franz Beach Resort, Tigbauan, Iloilo
If you’re looking for a beach resort along the coast line in the southern part of Iloilo, Lou Franz Beach Resort is definitely worth a try. It’s situated in Brgy. Barroc, Tigbauan, Iloilo, so it’s very much accessible if you’re looking for a resort somewhere in the vicinity of the towns of Oton, Tigbauan, Guimbal, or Miag-ao, for family or barkada gatherings and/or events.
Amenities in the resort include pingpong table, videoke, etc.
I’m not particular with the rates yet, but for anyone interested, do drop a line in the comments below and together we’ll know the details.

Tigbauan Church
The Tigbauan church was just featured in Explore Iloilo. This is not the first time that Tigbauan was featured in that site. But this time, the pictures are just simply awesome!
I wanted to repost some of the pictures here, and I hope the people from Explore Iloilo won’t mind. Anyway, it has watermarks on it.
I really encourage everyone to visit the site and explore the beauty that is, Iloilo!
Tigbauan and the Feast of Sto. Niño
Yeah I know, I almost forgot it until Franz in his comment reminded me today.
Anyway, on Sunday, the 21st of January 2007, Tigbaun, Iloilo will be celebrating the feast of Sr. Sto. Niño. You are invited to come to our house, which is at Tupan St., Barangay 3. Lunch will be served at around 12 noon. Just look for me there! Bwehehehe.
Or if you want, you can come to Franz’ house at Leonardia St. Barangay 9, Tigbauan Iloilo! (LOL!)

The Beauty that is Tigbauan
Tigbauan, my beloved hometown, is a municipality in the province of Iloilo, Philippines. It is located 23 kilometers southwest of Iloilo City.
It acquired its name, like the majority of town centers, after a topographical distinction unique to the region – in this case after the Tigbao, a local name for a type of grass that used to swarm the countryside.
Tigbauan, a coastal town, was one of the landing sites for American Forces led by General Douglas MacArthur in March 1945 for liberation of the Philippines from the Japanese in World War II.
