New Harvest of Chilies from Diklum Farm

The Plots with lots of peanuts growing around to keep the soil healthy



Getting great yield from these small plants that we sprouted on the balcony at the restaurant! The fertile soil of Northern Mindanao is prime real estate for vegetable propagation. We will expand 0n our selection once seeds arrive...

We just got back from the farm at Diklum and our chilis are growing very well and about 20 plants are producing kilos of chilis. We have some pretty nice seed production so we will have more plants in the ground in the next few weeks. We picked some beautiful green chili that we will pickle at the restaurant for some upcoming new pulutan specials...extra spicy to pair with extra cold beer! Our first harvest of red chilis has already been made in to chili sauce and it is more potent that previous batches and....WE LIKE IT LIKE DAT!!!

Mardi Gras Celebration!

So our Mardi Gras celebration went off like magic or should I say VooDoo! What would you expect with 50% off menu items and a close out extravaganza with UTOPIA performing live in the courtyard. We have a lot of pics to upload but no time for that now. We got an awesome write up from BusinessWeek Mindanao, Thanks Shaun! and met a whole bunch of new guests. The purpose of our promotion was to reach new guests. Everyday we meet people that haven't heard of the restaurant or have not had time to stop in. Well, they took advantage of the mardi gras and seems like they told the world because the good people still keep coming in. Like we've said from the beginining, we are not here to force anything, just make good soul food and share a bit of New Orleans with the good people of Cagayan de Oro. We will update this post with pics soon. Thanks again for all those that came out!
