last stop: isdaan(gerona,tarlac)

Isdaan is located in gerona tarlac. If u are travelling north it would be impossible not to notice the restaurant with its giant sculptures of fish and other structures along way. Besides the authentic filipino food and the fresh seafoods they offer, the unique design of the place is another reason why it is worth to visit. Dining experience could be in a normal table setting or they also have floating nipa huts connected by bamboo bridges, and fishes in the water in between the huts are nice to watch while eating or you could also listen to the waiters as they serenade you. At the back is a small theme park like space with more sculptures, nice fountains and landscapes. Also, kids could bike and play around the place. Another interesting u could do in the place is the tacsiyapo. This is some sort of stress releasing activity wherein u could throw plates and even larger items like tv on the wall. So if u have grudges just shout tacsiyapo and throw the plates on the wall.Relieved? not sure of that. By the way, each breakable items has its corresponding price too.
