Invading Coron: Free time in town

Of course my story wouldn't be complete without sharing our experience during our free time in town. Let me share with you where we have eaten our meals.

Coron by night FOODTRIP located across the street from Coron Town Center is offering delicious dishes in big servings. From the healthy vegetables to best tasting seafood are offered here at low cost. At first look, price maybe high for budget travelers, but rest assured that servings are already good for two person so the prices are just right. We have ordered SUTTANA DE CORON (P250), CHOPSEUY (P195) served with 4 cups of rice.

sauce made with nestle cream and shrimp paste (bagoong).
Chopseuy. My partner loved the most
Rice with Fresh salad side dish.
WJA 24/7 Kainan sa Coron is the only 24 hours open eatery in town. So one needs not to worry if hunger persist at the middle of the night. They serves Filipino dishes such as Tapsilog, Tocilog and any kind of Silog meals. Price are budget friendly too.

Here's what we ordered:
Longsilog. P80
Tocilog. P80
Lomi. P70.
This is served good for two person.
Lolo Nonoy's Food Station located near Mt Tapyas Rd. They serve good variety of food at a minimal costs too. Forgive me as there are no photos. We have just walked by here to buy extra meal to be brought to our island hopping tour. We bought Pork Binagoongan and Laing which tastes really good. This has recommended to us by our baotmen.

We have eaten in different places in town but these deserves most of the credits. So once in town eating here even once is highly recommendable. Before ordering something, better ask how much serving it has as most meals are enough already for two person.

Vacation usually doesn't end without buying souvenirs to be brought home. We have planned to go back to the souvenir shop we have been during our city tour which requires us to ride a tricycle and will take much of our time. Good thing that when we passed by the market we have seen a souvenir shop right across the street. We have checked it out and were glad that they offer souvenirs at a low costs. That's a time saver.

I ♥ CORON SOUVENIR SHOP is located at the ground floor of Coron Gateway Hote/ facing the street. They offer different varieties of souvenirs. It may not be as big as Coron Souvenir and Gift Shop but it serves its purpose of selling cheap Coron branded souvenirs.
Located at the building of Coron Gateway Hotel.
They sell sea shells.

We have only spent 3D/2N in Palawan. Unfortunately, it has not been enough for me and my partner as we have missed a lot of the most recommendable places that tourists should go to due to the bad weather. Best time to go here is from September - May as to expect perfect weather. Backpacking made us save money but finding tours in a limited time can be difficult. There are hotels that provides full board packages so better check with them if you want to save your time in advance. My partner and I enjoyed our trip still but will surely get back next year. ☺
