Entrance to Vencio's Garden Seafood Cafe |
During
our 4-day Media Familiarization Tour, Vencio’s Garden Seafood Café was to be
our usual watering hole as well as our venue for interviewing Gov. Alfonso
Umali, Jr. Opened in 2008 by Ms. Mayvel
Ortega, it occupies the first floor of a two-storey 377 sq. m. building, with
hotel rooms (8 single and 2 double rooms) at the second floor.
Providing
an awesome ambiance to the place are statues of Buddha, Queen Nefertiti, the
Queen of Sheba, Tutankhamen and many more.
Their food was very delicious and reasonably
priced and the staff was very accommodating.

On our first day, we really had
fun watching the waiters singing and dancing while we were feasting on their Assorted Seafood and Meat Platter (tilapia, shrimp, salted egg, pusit, tahong, chicken, pork vegetable and crab, PhP800). WIFI inside
was also strong.
For dinner, we tried Vencio's Binalot sa Dahon (Fried Liempo sa Alamang and Chicken Caldereta, Regular PhP125 and Special PhP135).

They
offer Filipino, international and Asian cuisine and their specialties include Lechon Sisig (PhP160), Crispy Pata (PhP750), Talong Binagoongan (PhP150), Beef Caldereta (PhP300), Sinigang na Hipon (PhP349), Lechon Kare Kare (PhP357), Shabu-Shabu (PhP749) and many more.
For
breakfast (6 - 9 AM), try out the crispy biya (fried dried fish) with egg and rice (PhP159), Breakfast Sandwich (bacon, lettuce and tomato, PhP150), French Toast with Chips (PhP150) and, for merienda,
they offer the famous suman with latik. They give free flowing brewed

The
restaurant had nice landscaping and interiors and is a great venue for parties
and celebrations such as weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, baptismal, reunions,
corporate events and seminars.
The café also has a videoke and offers catering
services and rentals. They also have an
organic farm and here you can buy fresh harvested mushrooms and organic
