Ka Roger








No!!!! not the famous Gregorio Rosal (New people's army chief operating in Sierra madre mountains) but a resto located at the heart of Trece Martires City. To be exact... its just across Aguinaldo, another restaurant located just right at the back of city hall.

What is in Ka Roger that makes it interesting?....Firstly, is the ambiance, the resort like setting,full of plants and windy. Every customer can occupy a hut and enjoy the privacy away from other customers who are equally enjoying their time in another hut. Secondly, the food...its oishi!!!! and thirdly...the price of the food. The price is unbelievably cheap. The food you see above which six of us consumed cost me only about P5oo bucks.

This place started over a year ago by the vice mayor of Trece. Goverment employees in Provincial Capitol and City hall use to eat their lunch in this place. it is open as early as 7 in the morning and closes late in the night.

As you can see we were really enjoyed during our first visit and we are looking forward for the next opportune time...Try it yourself.

Aguinaldo Shrine







The General Aguinaldo shrine….a must see shrine of Cavite is a national shrine of the Philippines, located in Kawit, Cavite. Every 12th of June, the Philippine flag is raised commemorating Independence Day.
The shrine is the ancestral home of Emilio Aguinaldo, the first president of the First Republic of the Philippines, and it was here that Philippine independence from Spain was proclaimed from a window of the home on June 12, 1898. The proclamation of Philippine Independence was read, though this was subsequently replaced by another declaration written and signed in Malolos, Bulacan.
President Aguinaldo, while in retirement, constructing an elaborate "Independence balcony" which many visitors today assume to be the actual location of the Independence Proclamation. The first president himself is buried in the garden of his home, which he donated to the Philippine government in 1962.
