Homey Feels at Balai Café Plus in Mandaue City

Without a doubt, cafés have become an integral part of the “going out” culture in this day and age. But no matter how relaxing or comfortable most cafes are, only a handful manage to replicate the feeling of relaxing at home – Balai Plus Café, Cebu’s homey café.

Balai Café Plus humbly sits in a secluded part of AS Fortuna. Despite the fact that this highway is popular for its rush hour, once you’re inside the café, it never fails to make you feel at home.

Carl Dave Black Ang

And what good a home would be if shrubs and herbs are not present? Balai Café Plus is abundantly verdant, as plants are a primary decoration of their store. Guests can dine under the shady trees, complimenting a full stomach with a breeze of fresh air.

Speaking of food, the café offers an all-day brunch menu. Because let’s face it, waking up late on a Sunday morning only to get brunch is one of the homiest feelings, right? Balai Plus Café seeks to mimic that experience by offering a wide variety of pasta, sandwiches and other food that are perfect for brunch.

Menu:

If you badly need that rest and relaxation after a long week’s work, Balai Plus Café might be the one and ‘home-ly’ thing for that.

11 thousand strong: Century-old Acacia Trees in Carcar saved by the Netizens

3

One of the best sightings to behold in the south are of those beautiful centuries-old acacia trees in Carcar City, Cebu.

They seem to embrace the road, overlooking all travelers, giving them shade and fresh air. Threatening to cut down these historical trees for road widening was unacceptable and have resulted to an uproar by Cebuanos and netizens alike.

A feat that would go down in history, as one of the highlights of the good side of social media, making every Cebuano and human proud, then took place. “11 thousand strong”, 11 thousand signatures through online petitions saved these trees from destruction.

Photo by @alfa_almz⁠ via IG

The DPWH Region 7 says century-old trees in Perrelous, Carcar, Cebu will be preserved. Instead of cutting them down, a new road will be opened alongside those trees (parallel road).

The battle was won but the debate and the defense raised by those who fought for them should be given highlight.

“We are mobile. The trees are not.” – Mily Joy Pactores, the one who initiated the online petition.

This one powerful statement caught my attention as it calls out the species known to be the most intelligent. Us. We can adapt. We can move. We can always find ways. We are supposed to be the “Ents”, a character from Tolkien’s books, the shepherds of the forest, the protector of the trees. Not only the trees, but the environment in general.

Drivers were also called out by the petitioners as it has always been their responsibility to drive safely and carefully. (One of the reasons stated by the government for the planned cutdown was road safety.) This is only a small step but of great impact in the awareness of protecting mother earth.

WATCH IT IN ACTION:
