Hello Worldmappin Community! ❤️✨
Today I want to share our visit to the Bastian Food Garden.
We went there around 10:30 in the morning just to eat some snacks.
We chose this place because aside from good food, we know they have animals that you can watch after eating.
Since we have kids with us, we knew this would be a place they would surely enjoy.
When we arrived, we were the only customers there! Haha.
I don’t know why there was no one else eating, but I can guarantee you that their food is really delicious.
Actually, this place is very special to us. This is actually the venue we chose when we got married!
They have a function hall here where we held our wedding reception, so coming back here brings back good memories.
For our meal, we just ordered a medium-sized Lomi.
It was just the right amount and enough for the four of us.
It was hot, tasty, and really filling.
After we finished eating, my son Aiden and I walked around the area, excited to see the animals in their cages.
I remember that in the past, this place had turtles, ostriches, and many other kinds of animals. But now, it seems they focus more on chickens and birds.
Those were the only animals we saw during our visit.
There was even a sign about the Philippine crocodile, but we didn't see one.
Maybe it was hiding underwater? Or maybe it’s not there anymore. I wasn't able to ask anyone around, so we just continued our walk. Haha.
Even though there were fewer animals than before, we were still amazed by what we saw.
I discovered that there are so many different kinds of chickens here.
There was this one that looked so cute and fluffy, and also one with really big and thick legs and feet! Haha.
There was also another one that looked like it was wearing a hat with a feather on top of its head. So unique!
We also saw two kinds of eagles: the White-breasted Sea Eagle and the Serpent Eagle. They looked so strong and majestic.
But what I enjoyed the most was seeing the Peacocks!
I didn't expect to see them here. There were 4 pairs of them. The first two were already displaying their beautiful, colorful tail feathers.
They looked so amazing and proud.
And guess what? There was also a White Peacock!
It was my first time seeing one in person.
I am used to seeing the colorful ones, but this white one looked so pure, clean, and innocent. Hihi.
The fourth one was just calm and didn't open its feathers, but it was still nice to see.
Before we left, we saw these two peacocks acting like they were fighting or competing with each other.
It was funny because they looked the same, like they were looking in a mirror! Haha.
There is also a playground here that kids will surely love, but because the weather was so hot, nobody wanted to play there. It was really burning hot!
Overall, it was a nice and simple experience at the Bastian Food Garden. Good food and nice animals to see.
Hope you enjoyed our virtual tour!
Until our next family bonding...
Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸
