What we ordered was a pan of pizza, pasta and buffalo wings. All were good but we wish to have tried other offerings as well. This is also great for group of people rather than dining alone so you get to save and try more.

*NOTES :

  • As a whole, La Union has so many many food restaurants to look out for, I still have so many on my wish list but max that you eat thrice a day right? (*haha!) will be back for more discovery
  • Price range of food usually starts at P180 – above, should you wish to try each of the famous resto in Elyu be ready to shell out on this as well
  • all of the resto were my favorite, each has something to offer uniquely and something that would remain remarkable to you
  • be it the ambiance of the resto, the vibe of the people, the menu and offering and the budget one has to shell out

La Union, what I consider one of my favorite place would always be significant to me. Should you wish to read my 3D/2N DIY Itinerary you may
