Caloy's Buko Pie sang San Enrique


YOU CAN ALSO FIND US AT THE SAN ENRIQUE BOOTH DURING THE PANAAD FESTIVAL
CALL OR TEXT US 09209008072

Layers upon layers of fresh buko meat with the right crunch of its pie crust --- this is what you will TASTE from every single bite of Caloy's Buko (Coconut) Pie sang San Enrique.


I have heard about this special Buko Pie from friends since early 2011 (or maybe earlier). Someone from down south shared with me a piece of this pie. With just one bite, I finally knew what I have been missing in a Buko Pie for a long time.


I got the softest young buko meat layered on a bed of generous custard. I was happy that this pie is not that sweet. Just the right sweetness that it needed. That sweetness that did not overpower the freshness of the young coconut. It was like munching on a mouthful of soft coconut clouds! 


I am now helping the owners to improve their marketing and online communications since we know we have a Facebook market ready. I have actually volunteered to help them a year ago because I knew that they have a good product. And as young entrepreneurs, I also support their idea of doing business in their small town of San Enrique (about 30-40 minutes away from Bacolod City in Negros Occidental). This small business provides jobs for the local people of the town. This is also a great thing for tourism for it highlights the best products of San Enrique.




For deliveries, please call 09209008072.  

A plate of buko pie can be divided into 8 slices. The 9-inch buko pie is in a sturdy box so you can easily bring it as pasalubong. Or better yet, eaten freshly baked on the same day as it is delivered to you. I think the latter is the best way to enjoy your Buko Pie. Or best strategy is to buy one for pasalubong and one for consumption. Fresh buko pies definitely require you to throw away delayed gratification. You just have to eat it while it's hot!

AVAILABLE IN THE SAN ENRIQUE BOOTH DURING THE PANAAD FESTIVAL!!! Hurry :)

But hey, if you badly need a buko pie fix, we do understand and would like to accommodate your cravings. :) 




If you are near San Enrique or passing by the town, please ring or send a message through these Mobile Nos. +63-927-8297888 or +63-923-8823144. The owners would really be happy to serve you in their main branch. Ask any local around San Enrique and they will lead you to us. The business is also open for hotels and restaurants who would like to feature Caloy's Buko Pie sang San Enrique in their menus or special buffets.

Another Side of Boracay Island



Punta Bunga Beach is located at the northern part of Boracay Island and is just right next to Shangri-La Resort-Boracay. Away from the loud colors and the noisy activities in Stations 1, 2 and 3, this beach offers a glimpse of early Boracay.


Shangri-La Resort in Boracay Island
On the 4th day of our family summer trip (2012), we celebrated my niece's 12th birthday on this pristine beach. To our left is the cove and to the right is Shangri-La Resort.




It was kinda quiet and peaceful here and you can really relax.


This.is.beach.life. (Smile)


From Station 1 we took a motorized boat to go to this part of the island. For Php 1,500.00, our banca's captain agreed to take us there and he even suggested that he will just pick us up again in the afternoon.


The name of our boat is THE NAVIGATOR...WOW! How can we go wrong with that???
Quite a deal already for a group of 11 persons. We went at about 10am and brought our lunch with us. The Captain of The Navigator (our boat) said we will just contact them through SMS. Cool! Thank God for cellular service on this island!


The Cantina
There is a small canteen (carinderia) serving different kinds of food from noodles, fish, meat and of course rice.


We just paid Php 300.00 for the table and ordered some food from the canteen so they would allow us to stay.


Our lunch: grilled pork belly, grilled milkfish (bangus) and salted eggs salad. Of course, spiced vinegar and soy sauce. Nomnomnom!


We really enjoyed swimming in this cove! Beautiful!


My nieces and I enjoyed this private cove so much.
Enjoy our photos and click the photo to enlarge.


Locals selling charms and bracelets to foreigners. Interesting because if you dont have money with you, they are willing to go with you to your hotel so you can pay them. Talking about great customer service!

Enjoy your Boracay as much as I did! Ciao!

Honeydew is best eaten when it is chilled. I love it!

Watermelons are the best! Ultimate summer fruit :)

You can buy different kinds of summer fruits just along the highways of Valladolid, Negros Occidental (about 45 mins away, south of Bacolod City)
