More pics from Bagsakan. Villasis is considered the vegetable capital of Pangasinan. You are expected to haggle on the prices which they WILL try to spike even in mid conversation. Agree on a price, then add it all up wrong and give you a higher total.
The GK Namnama Village first 5 houses as of January 18! Taken at the 6 km GK Walk from Municipal Center of Villasis to Barangay Piaz.
Visiting the first houses of Namnama Village back in November.
On the road to Dagupan most every day that we were visiting Henri at the hospital, we would pass through Calasiao, a town known for it's street long strip of puto vendors. The booths are all lined up in a row, each with the name of the lady in charge of that particular booth painted prominently on it. And all these booths are beneath a larger sign that says Calasiao Puto Producers Association (or something like that. I'll try to find a picture of the sign.) Anyway, if you stop for a few seconds to look, like mermaids, the vendors, who are mostly young women, would start waving to you, hoping that you would pick their particular booth to do business with. I had always remarked to Marisol, that one day, when we have time, I'd stop and buy some Puto to sample. Sure enough, as I got out of the van, every vendor began to wave to me, "Sir, sir!" Basically, I chose the nearest one, Alegria, as you can see by the pictures, paid my pesos and returned with the loot! DEEELICIOUS!
