Enjoying The Fiesta Bazaar!

What I love about Camp Phillip, Bukidnon, Philippines when the Fiesta or the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes is approaching are the presence of Fiesta Bazaar and Fiesta Carnival.

I have mentioned in my previous post how I enjoyed the rides of the Fiesta Carnival and promised to visit the Fiesta Bazaar. Last time, I was so delighted to have a simple stroll in the area while window shopping and buying my favorite kinds of stuff and foodies.

Most of the merchants at the bazaar are in tents and stalls with a small dining area for customers. Every vendor has a space for whatever they will be selling and they are just a space apart from each other.

One of my favorite merchants at the Fiesta Bazaar is the one that sells the fresh Fruit Shake. The fruits on the trays were so enticing and I loved the freshness of the products.

Who would never fall in love with these fruits? I have seen a variety of fruits on the trays although in the displayed containers some fruits were not available on the trays and seemed sold out.

Upon looking at the tray of fruits, there were options to choose from like grapes, oranges, guava, and apple. But as I looked at the containers, there were more enticing mixes of fruits on the plastic containers of fruits on the plastic containers which were ready to be blended.

All of the mixed fruits seemed delicious. Among the plastic containers, I choose a cup of fruits with the presence of lemon, papaya, mango, grapes, orange, and apple.

Honestly, it is my first time to try this fresh fruit shake in our neighborhood. Most of the shakes sold nearby are mostly processed and in powdered form ready to be blended. But this variety offered so much freshness and goodness.

Before I sat down on the chair, I stood near the blender and observed how the staff prepared the fresh fruit shake. I noticed that she blended all the fruits with the crushed ice and then added fresh milk.

Meanwhile, I went to the dining table, sat on the chair, and waited for my order to be served. What a great moment to be there and I so love the atmosphere since it was not so crowded so I had the best time to enjoy at the bazaar. And it truly made me relaxed for a moment.

After a while, the fresh fruit shaked was given to me by the staff. Aside from the fresh fruits and fresh milk, they added additional chocolate delights making the shake flavorful. I so love the taste of what I ordered.

I did not stay at the table to finish consuming my order. Instead, I walk around the bazaar while carrying the fresh fruit shake and drinking it. I passed by many stalls and merchants, but what made me stop was the tent with a variety of Ukay-Ukay.

Ukay-ukay is indeed ao popular in the Philippines not only in the Firsta Bazaar but in all parts of the Philippines. From Luzon to Visayas, and Mindanao, most Filipinos love this Philippine store for selling secondhand items at a cheap price. Most of them were imported from Asian, American, and European countries.

I went to the Ukay-ukay shop at the bazaar that sells shoes, slippers, and sandals. While choosing what product to buy, I am sipping the fresh fruit shake that I bought earlier.

Then later, I found a slipper with the Crocs brand that was sold to me at the cheapest price. I bought it and then I decided to go to another stall to buy my ever favorite combination of pizza not to mention the creamy spinach and peach mango flavors.

I changed my slippers to what I bought at the Fiesta Bazaar. And what I am wearing are the Crocs slippers. Although it was ukay-ukay, it was ready to wear since the merchant had already washed and disinfected them. I had almost brand-new slippers and seemed it was slightly used.

I then went to the vast green fields and enjoyed eating my favorite pizzas. It felt so good to buy satisfying items at the Fiesta Bazaar. Perhaps I enjoyed the moments and I wish to be back for another exciting experience.
