Skydreamer Dines in Bohol: Shiang Ma Nou

There is a Chinese Dimsum joint near K of C church that serves the most amazing pork asado and roasted turkey. If you ever need a serious Chinese fix, do try them out! I don't have any pictures because we just ordered our food to go but the food's really good!

Skydreamer Dines in Bohol: Garden Cafe

In 1984, the Bohol Foundation for the Deaf & Disabled, Inc. opened the Garden Cafe as a small snack center made of bamboo with 7 deaf employees. It has undergone many transformations from a BBQ stand, donut shop, pizza parlor, to a Filipino-Tex-Mex fusion restaurant. They also serve desserts like pumpkin pie and frozen typhoon.

I'm usually difficult to impress when it comes to restaurant interiors. Lately, it would take a good hotel restaurant to make me truly appreciate the theme/ambience or whatever the restaurant has it going. Well, this one impressed me so much and I was just amazed that I've never heard if this delightful place before.

Here are the things that impressed me:
1. The staff is composed of deaf persons so when you order, you have to call a certain number from a phone in your booth to tell them what you want. Obviously, you'll be talking to a person who CAN hear you.
2. They serve pumpkin pie! For P35 and that's with whipped cream!
3. Proceeds are used to educate deaf children in Bohol.

If you're in Tagbilaran, do check them out.

You use this phone to order. Great idea!

Skydreamer Dines in Bohol: Buzzz Cafe in ICM

Buzzz Cafe in ICM is Bohol Bee Farm's mall outlet. I've heard about them for a few years already but never had the chance to dine there.

Now that I'm here, we ate lunch there. I was looking forward to their organic food, salad with flowers, and organic red rice. My younger sister even proclaimed Bee Farm as her current fave restaurant.

I ordered their honey glazed chicken and flowered salad. Hubby got their meat pasta.

The food was great but not awesome. Believe me, saying that is not easy for me - I have been looking forward to dining there for years now. The food coming up a bit short for my taste brings me no joy. Hubby enjoyed his pasta though. :)

Here are some pictures:

The salad had edible flowers!
