Top Five Philippine Mythical Creatures

Halloween, the much-awaited occasion for any kiddies out there. This is the time to go out and do some Trick-or-Treating but for some cultures or countries they don't have this traditional. In the Philippines, this is the time of Semestral Break, which is one week off from school for the students. This is the time we would go to cemeteries to visit our loved ones and do some cleaning on their tombs. 

This is also the time when they say that creatures lurks around at night time and where all the creatures are at their strongest that's why we were told by our parents to never go out at Nov. 1 to Nov. 2. My family is very religious and traditional; we would always go to the cemetery every year for visiting our ancestors. During this time also, me and my cousins would always talked about these creatures and which ones are the most popular.

Kanto Freestyle Breakfast

(Sorry for the Blurry Pictures! It was night time already!)

After work, we decided to go to try Kanto Freestyle Breakfast in Kapitolyo, Pasig. It was recommended by one of my office mates, who is a regular of the place.

The place was simple yet like a canteen but with a touch of homey feeling. Maybe for others, they might pass by this place as if it were just a canteen house but I assured you it is a restaurant. As I saw the menu, I wasn't really sure what would I choose to eat. Because all items in the menus sounds appetizing enough.
