SHAHI QILA Restaurant at the country’s Summer Capital: Preview of flavors

A must see and go to restaurant that brings you closer to an AUTHENTIC international flavor!
“Flavor, aroma, authenticity.” These are three words shared by Shahi Qila’s manager which define Pakistani food.
Shahi Qila Restaurant at Bakakeng in Baguio City, is named after one of their country’s greatest architectural treasure, the King’s Fortress, brings you real Pakistani culture through food and beats from indigenous Pakistani music.

Owned by Pakistani entrepreneurs who had lived with and known Filipino preferences. Worked their way to set up the House of Kabab and Biryani, an indigenous experience of real Pakistani flavors and recipes.
Using authentic ingredients like the Basmati rice and natural organic spices. Proudly introducing their no “curry powder-all natural spiced-meals.”
The mood and the overall ambience is great and refreshing, perfect for the organic spice-filled Pakistani cuisine!
Biryani is their specialty and one of their best-sellers. We had samosa which is so filling at less than a dollar.

Shahi Qali is also a great dining place for college students at a nearby university. On the menu, they serve “Teens Fast Food” which are a combo of a meal and a drink at less than a hundred pesos.

Shahi Qali offers best samosa in town

My personal favorite, highly recommended, is samosa which is partnered with their Pakistani Milk tea (Chai tea), made with fresh cardamom seed. Brewed and mixed the traditional Pakistani way.


Of course, everything is excellent! Affordable and great for sharing. The people, the staff are all nice and they serve you well, which completes a perfect food and dining experience! In short, try and visit now!
Shahi Qila Restaurant is located at Purok 2, Bakakeng road, a 20-30 mins. jeepney ride from the Baguio City town proper.

A woodcrafters’ advocate: Michael’s Concept

original post @Grassroots'Advocate https://grassrootsadvocatewebsite.wordpress.com/2017/02/27/whats-in-sessiongrassroots-features-day-1/

Michael’ Concept makes  pro-environtment, pro-people, pro-fair trade products. Local woodcrafters from Cebu personally hand-carved these novelty items out from rosewood and other locally grown and sustained wood trees.

These cute, chic, and trendy wooden bookmarks are hand-carved out from Philippine Rosewood. Unlike other wood crafts sold in the mainstream commerce, Philippine Rosewood are indigenous species of wood trees grown and managed in the country.

This bookmark can be purchased at 25php. You can also ask for personalized designs of these items. The items are designed with animals shades of colors that would imbibe the context of Filipino culture.

Michael’s Concept wood crafts and furniture project is a livelihood initiative of a local entrepreneurs based in San Fernando, Cebu. They use scraps of wood found in their local community and do not need to cut trees for lumber to be used in their products.
“Our products are environment friendly, because we do not use trees which need to be cut down from forests, rosewood are found abundantly in Cebu,” said miss “Etchel”, the lady in-charge of the booth set-up at the “Sessions in Bloom” in Baguio city.

Michael’s Concept started in 1988 as a small livelihood of a family based in San Fernando Cebu. Today they had grown into branches around the country.

Producers of Michael’s Concept supports pro-environment products. They produce novelty items like bookmarks, key chains and letter openers ( an originally designed craft of Michael’s Concept and a unique item found in today’s Session in bloom). The designs they use are original creations by their employees.

Rosewood is an indigenous specie of trees in the Philippines which are self-sustaining, growing in the Philippine forests. They are one of the major type of tees excellent for making word class woodcraft and furniture.

Michael’s Concept’s  project is supported by PREDA Foundation who helps them in marketing and innovating their wood crafts by training their people on how to create unique designs and introducing them to a healthy work environment. This is owned and managed by a family who practices the principles of “Fair Trade” by giving fair and honest labor to their employees.
This make them a pro-people company. Buy giving a fair and honest wage to their people, they have to keep confidentiality of the designs and concepts of their products to avoid the practices of big companies who sea designs and produce using machines.
