Persimmon Cafe in Sagada (also known as Vincent Coffee Shop and Grill)

I forgot to tell you that fortunately, we again met the two backpackers who joined us on our trek to the Lumiang Burial Caves. This time, they just had their breakfast at Yoghurt House in Sagada. We had again some conversations and we decided to go for a tour to Underground River then another trek to the small falls, the Bokong Falls. We were supposed to join them in their Echo Valley Tour but we decided to head to Persimmon Café and buy some lemon pie as baon to our tiresome trek to said tourist destinations.

Fruity Restaurant Breakfast at Yoghurt House, Sagada

Yoghurt House is one of the popular restaurants in Sagada. Their specialty is no other than yoghurt.

When my friend arrived, I told him we go to a popular restaurant and eat breakfast. There are many choices, Yoghurt House, Lemon Pie House, Dalikan, Pinikpikan House and Persimmon Café. But we chose Yoghurt House because I’ve heard from other people who already went to Sagada that their homemade yoghurt were just the best in town. Yes it was.

Of Misty Morning, Mountain Dew and Sagada Flowers

Tomato fruits in Sagada, Mountain Province. Others though are flowers in Sagada.

My dinner was over and we have to walk about 20 minutes from their house to Misty Inn. Misty Inn is very far from the town hall but it’s nearer to the orange farms in Sagada. And for that we have to walk through the dark roads in this town. I just hope the government will have to provide more lights in Sagada and I hope the roads will be paved too.

The parting time with our newly met backpacker friends were nevertheless the last time, but for the night it was so. We have to go home to Christian’s house for the dinner. I was shy to actually join them in their dinner but there we went. Besides it’s free haha so who was I to decline?

Another Burial Tradition in Sagada’s Lumiang Cave

Here are the stacked coffins of the popular Lumiang Burial Cave in Sagada.

A few minutes of rest from the famous Hanging Coffins of the Echo Valley tour have confronted us to take it to the next burial site which is inside a cave. I thought that the only way early people of Sagada is to hang the coffins of their dead loved ones when they pass away, but I was wrong because this simple town has yet so many traditions that up until now is existing. Out of all the caves in the world where the first humans exist as caves were their first homes, I think Sagada has one of the few caves, particularly the Lumiang Cave, which still has proofs that indeed caves were used in the early traditions of the world.
