I promised my tummy I'll go pig-out in Legazpi and I'm true to my word. I did.
1st COLONIAL GRILL
I find this restaurant a bit pricey for my standards.
Yeah. I'm one cheapskate.
Here you can find some weird flavored ice cream plus they got their own delicious food to boast.

Their ice cream!
I read from their menu they claimed Sili, Tinutung, & Pili ice cream flavors "Originated from Legazpi in 1st Colonial Grill."
SILI ICE CREAM
 |
| 3 scoops @ Php 79 |
If you love something hot, this one is for you.
The coldness magnifies the hotness...for me. ^_^
It really tastes like the real thing. Kulang nalang makakita ako ng sili seeds. :)
MALUNGGAY ICE CREAM
 |
| 3 scoops @ Php 79 |
My parents let me drink before malunggay juice. They extracted it by squeezing the leaves.
Yeah. Tastes the same. Only difference is this one is cold.
KALAMANSI ICE CREAM
 |
| 3 scoops @ Php 60 |
Kalamansi is good when you have colds. Can I take this instead as medicine? lol!
TINUTONG ICE CREAM
glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk with toasted munggo beans
 |
| 3 scoops @ Php 79 |
I called this "dukot" ice cream.
Dukot in Bisaya is scorched rice. hehehe

I wanna try all their ice cream!!!
ReplyDeleteI think they have 9-12 ice cream flavor. We only choose the interesting ones. :D
ReplyDeleteI want to try those you featured here... specially the sili ice cream!
ReplyDeleteHehehe! Sili ice cream is my least favorite.
ReplyDeleteHey, Yotch! I beg to disagree - those ice cream flavors aren't "weird" and they're not scary. I LURVE those - the Sili, Malunggay, Kalamansi, Tutung, super! But then, "weird" is my last name, mao tingali! haha.
ReplyDeleteyotchie, "weird" doesn't mean not lami man pd. Not the usual ice cream flavors lang. :D
ReplyDeleteNalingaw ko even my head started to spin cz of brain-freeze plus eating 4 diff weird flavors in one sitting. :D
the ice creams look great! i love the vibrant and fun colors! :) wonder if i'll like the sili ice cream :)
ReplyDeleteBerylle Kaye Hong, if you like everything hot then Sili ice cream is for you.
ReplyDeleteLet me know when you tasted one. I'm curious. ^_^
the sili ice cream is outstanding! creamy and sweet tas pag nalunok na, dun na ang guhit ng sili. amazing!
