Callao Cave

Callao Cave is a cave with seven chambers located on the Province of Cagayan, in the Philippine. It is one of the best known tourist attractions of the province. It is located in Barangays Parabba and Quibal, Peñablanca, near Tuguegarao, the capital city of the Province of Cagayan.

It has a natural cathedral located at the first chamber, which was turned into a chapel by the local people. The conditions inside the cave cause stalactites and stalagmites, particularly in the deeper chambers.

Every chamber has natural crevices, which let light get into the cave, serving as illumination for the otherwise dark areas of the place.

Tuguegarao Pancit Cabagan vs. Batil Patong

BATIL PATUNG, A VERY LOCAL VERSION!!!

Batil Patung

          Batil means mix and patung means top or topping. The noodles in Batil Patung are the flat kind. The topping consists of sautéed beef or, I guess, carabeef, bean sprouts, sliced leeks, julienned carrots, crushed chicharon, meat loaf slices and fried egg. It comes with a cup of egg drop soup meant to be sipped or mixed with the pancit. Chopped red onions, calamansi and chili peppers are also served. The fifty-peso supper we had was huge enough for two people.

 

  

PANCIT CABAGAN!! YES, THOSE ARE QUAIL EGGS!!

Pancit Cabagan is said to have been introduced by a Chinese settler in the town of Cabagan in nearby Isabela province. It looks Chinese enough. The wet pancit has round noodles, julienned cabbage and carrots, boiled quail eggs and a generous heap of lechon de carajay slices or chicharon.  It comes with the sweeter white onions, calamansi and egg drop soup.
