San Pablo Pastor's Retreat


- A small isle off shore from Leyte.
- Pastor's retreat and picnics
- Beautiful blue water, white sand and friendly people.
- For foodies it was interesting and exotic fare.
Parrot fish, Monk fish and other sea food soup called "tinola", made with fresh fish and leaves from a local tree that resembles clover, ginger, tammarind, tomatoes, and onions. Very fresh and tasty.
Another exotic delicacy, "Kinilao", a type of Filipino sushi, also was made with fresh raw fish, coconut vinegar, and onions. Many like the "kinilao" better than Japanee sushi. Other fish such as Parrot fish, Monk fish and several other small varieties were grilled and served on plates made from banana leaves and eaten with the hands.
