Blue Pearl Meat Restaurant: Next on your Gastronomic Bucketlist

There is a new Korean restaurant in town and its gaining popularity fast. The Blue Pearl Meat Restaurant is located along Hibbard Avenue, Tugas, Piapi. It is situated right by the Korean Church. It’s easy enough to spot, especially with an enormous signage right outside the restaurant. Blue Pearl is actually the fourth branch of the Pearl Meat Shop which first opened its doors in AS Fortuna, Mandaue City. It’s two other branches, both located in Cebu, are also widely-known and well-loved by foodies both Korean and Filipino. So imagine my delight when I learned that one of my favorite Korean restaurants from Cebu was branching out to none other than Dumaguete City.

Lively Filipino music, rich and boisterous laughter and the clanging of utensils were in perfect harmony during the blessing and grand opening of Lantaw Native Restaurant Dumaguete.

And as the night progressed and the moon steadily lit the restaurant’s skyline, the crowd excited to taste the savory native delicacies unique to this new restaurant just kept getting bigger and bigger.

There is a science to the saying “Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder”. Before, it was believed that one’s idea of beauty stemmed from his genetic make up. Recently it has been found that it’s our individual life experiences that lead us to find one face more attractive than another. Such holds true with art, music, and even photography. It’s all about how you perceive it.

A lot can happen in two weeks. Mine was pretty eventful. I sat in the backseat through 3 longs drives, celebrated the birthdays of 5 friends and family, visited new and old places, and took about 700+ new photos with my phone to document all those activities. So, how eventful was your last two weeks? How many photos did you take? 😁

Do you ever get those times where you just want to relive a moment over and over again? Ever caught yourself staring at something so beautiful, so breathtaking that there’s nowhere else in the world you’d rather be? Well, I have – many times. And through all those times, I remember that one line Leslie Burke said to Jesse Aarons in one of my favorite movies, “Take a picture, it lasts longer.” Indeed it does.
