Bahay Pastulan, Tagaytay




















When you are in Tagaytay, don't forget to get your take home goodies from Bahay Pastulan. This is the Good Shepperd in Tagaytay. Like its Baguio counterpart you can buy the famous Ube jams here. How convenient! No need to travel 8 hours to savor the the yummy ube jam of the Good Shepperd nuns.

There are slight distinctions thu'. Here in Tagaytay the jam is not in the bottle jar but in plastic container which personally I like because it's much easier to spoon the jam from the  wider  mouth of the canister. The buyers' queue here is much shorter than Baguio.

But the thing is I can't find any distinction in taste. They are both the best ube jam makers in the Philippines. Or are they one?

Aside from the ube jam, other Baguio products are available here_strawberry jam, lengua, peanut brittle and the others. One thing that I think is endemic here is the buco pie. It's my daughter's favorite and wouldn't leave the place without a box of buco pie. She wouldn't consume it thu' not until the following day at home after one day refrigeration. She likes it cold and old.

We saw in the front side of the building that they were also selling "halo-halo". There were customers enjoying the halo-halo right in front of the canteen eating standing. We never got to try it yet, but I'm sure it's delicious as I suppose they are using their own sweets products like ube and macapuno.
