A very late lunch at Four Seasons, Legazpi City

Our flight to Daraga, Albay was delayed for about 1.5 hours. Instead of arriving at 1PM, we arrived around 2:30PM. Our friend picked us up at the airport and we dropped off our bags at the hotel before heading out for a late lunch, which we enjoyed at 3:30PM. He took us to Four Seasons in downtown Legazpi where we could have a nice meal enjoying catch-up kwentuhan over Chinese food.

Our friend took us to the Four Seasons restaurant in downtown Legazpi for a very late lunch.

There were few customers when we arrived. Some eventually trickled in as it was actually merienda time when we had our 'lunch'.

Their special Seasons Chicken

Seafoods with century egg soup - perfect for rainy days

Chopsuey guisado

Yang chow rice

Needless to say but we had a great time catching up on current events and reminiscing about college life at UP Diliman. Nothing like the combination of good food and good company to brighten up a gloomy, rainy day.

Bicolano food for dinner

On our first night in Legazpi, we decided to eat at the hotel. The weather was really bad and we didn't feel like heading out. We didn't have our own transport so we figured we were better off having dinner at the hotel instead of spending time waiting for a ride and travel. The hotel's kitchen did not disappoint and we had a very good meal after ordering Bicol dishes for dinner. Consider this sampler of Bicol dishes: Pinangat, Bicol Express and Adobo sa gata.
