Davao FAT 2008 Memories

There are still a couple more posts to write about the Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2008, and there are several remaining pictures to put up. But before I get lost in all those details, I think I should mention the following hosts and friends (some old, some new) in gratitude for a well-spent weekend:

To Blogie, for conceptualizing the tour.

To Ria, for organizing the event. And a very well-organized event it was, conducted with military precision. If you need a wedding organized, I'll voice for Ria.

To our various hosts:

• Mike and Melvin Aviles of Lachi's Sans Rival;
• Karyn Flores of Davao Marco Polo Hotel;
• Chito Ayala of Eden Nature Park; and
• Byran Bajado of Bryan's Grill and Cafe

To blog buddies, old and new:

• Aileen and Jay, the two sweeties
• Andie
• Angel, ever bubbly and funny
• Avel, our man in Gen San
• Drew, who took many of our fine photos


• Gerwin
• Gwing, my favorite photo model and she whose skyrider screams can be heard from a kilometer away
• Kim
• Mikko
• Migs, my fellow lecher and starlet stalker
• Tiara, who's always cool and composed
• Winston, our wide-eyed geek

To all other hosts whose hospitality I was not able to partake of:

• TAPS
• Kasagingan
• Sugar Munch
• Food Processors Association of Davao

Thanks one and all.

I'll be back.
