If you are looking for a place to dine in with you family, friends or your partner, you can consider this place. The Food Village Park is located at Tiongson Street, General Santos City just in front of Lagao Baranggay Hall for google map click here . To get here, if you are in the city, you can just ride a tricycle for 10 to 15 pesos. Upon entering, health protocols are strickly observe.
This place has a live band very night and the music is sweet and not so laud so you have a good conversation with your family or friend while having a cozy dinner. You can even request the singer to play your favorite song.
This place is clean and the staff are accommodating. I love how the colourful hanging umbrellas on its hallway. It makes this place instagrammable.
What I love in this place is that you can have a lot of food to choose. It has a lot of shops the sells different kind of menu. Murakami is a shop where you can have your unlimited grill for only 195 pesos (prices are subject to change withour prior notice). They offer meat, fish & seafood for you to grill. This kind of shop is famous in Thailand too but Thailand has a unique cooking pot for you to grill your food. They call it "mookata" you can visit this page for more information.
They have also pizza, salads shops and milk tea shop. We have tried different kids of food from different shops. As you can see on our photo below. We got pizza, fried chicken, fries, vegetable salads grilled fish, kinilaw (malasugi) and tinolang isda (malasugi). I have more photos on my fb page HelloWifey. The food wasn't really expensive and the taste is average. At some point the Malasugi soup is a little bit salty for me.
We have a nice chitchat here with my highschool barkadas until past 11 in the evening. Before we say good bye to each other we took a lot of photos.
Alta Vista De Gonzaga Alabel Sarangani
Monday, August 30, 2021
Probably the most famous tourist destination in Alabel, Sarangani Province is just an hour away from the city of General Santos. Alta Vista De Gonzaga is also known to many as Alta Vista. It is located at Barangay Bagakay Alabel, Sarangani Province. For Google Maps click here. It’s open as early as 4 a.m. until 9 p.m.
If you are planning to come here, it’s best to wake up early in the morning before sunrise. You can have early breakfast here and wait for the sun to rise. Don’t forget to bring your jacket because the temperature is quite cold. Then, if you are lucky enough, the beautiful view of a foggy mountain range will leave you in awe.
Originally, we planned to come here at past 4 a.m., but when we woke up. It’s already bright outside and the sun is high. I took my phone to looked at the time and it’s already past 6 in the morning, hahaha. But since it was already planned, we have to go, heh hehe. We reached the place at 7 in the morning but still, I can see the fogs in the mountain. I was disappointed but it’s OK, I still find this place nice and breathtaking.
The location is along the highway and the road is concrete. The parking lot is big and they have a designated parking space for bicycles. This is also the cyclist’s favorite resting place. To those who can’t leave without WIFI, you don’t have to worry because Peso WIFI is available. If I’m not mistaken the 5 pesos will take an hour of internet usage.
They have also a view deck and the entrance is 30 pesos for adults and children. At the top of the hill is the spectacular view of Alabel Sarangani Province and General Santos City. I can even see the proudest Mt. Matutum and Sarangani Bay. They built some structures here for you to take photos to be posted on Facebook and social media. Don’t miss out on the upper view deck, from here is the 360 degrees view.
If you can’t come here early in the morning, well come at sunset. This place is also ideal place to spend sunset and wait until evening for star gazing. The city lights of General Santos City look like a bunch of stars in the evening. Many tourist come here late afternoon till evening to witness that fantastic scenery.
As for accommodation, it is not yet available but maybe in the future, hehehe. I make a short video for this place. I hope you can also take the time to watch it.
