If not for my daughter, I did not know that there’s such a place in Negros
known as Balaring.
I wrote the other day about Campuestohan, where my daughter had discovered in the internet while she was in New York. If not for her to treat the whole family where most of the time we were in three full packed SUV, we would not know much about the place. I’m not fond to going to places if not necessary, being contented where God post me. Believe me, I haven’t been to some famous places like Boracay. I believe I have no business to be there and despite that I was asked not only once but many times by children and relatives who would foot the bill, Boracay doesn’t excite me.
That’s what makes me an ignoramus insofar as many places in Negros but this time I cannot say no to all members of the family that includes brothers, in-laws, sister, nieces, nephews, children and grandchildren, so I have to play pussy so as not to spoil the fun of everyone. So we ended up in Campuestohan and like a whole barangay have to get ourselves to add to the crowd of coffee places like Kuppa in Bacolod and at one evening at Balaring in Silay City. We found the place very suitable to serve our dinner at a reasonable cost. We cannot refuse our only daughter who comes to visit us on irregular basis due to our entire situation. This is May and since its vacation time, all students are around and as long as there is somebody who would shoulder the expenses of the fun, we have no reason to refuse. So like one barangay we landed at Balaring and I found the place very suitable for a big family like us. Since it’s already night time, we found the place with no customers. There were but a few on some vehicles but then they were not an enormous crowd unlike us.
