Carmina's review on Summit Hotel in Tacloban

Last year my dad had informed me he will be getting married in Tacloban the place his wife grew up in the Philippines . My dad said he would like all of his family members to attend since they couldn't go to the one in the United States. Carmina booked her flight during Philippine Airlines ’ year-end sale at the start of 2026. I told my dad about my travel plans for a short trip from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19. My cousins also asked for my flight details so they could book the same flight. My dad said he will book my room for me sharing with two family members at  Summit Hotel in Tacloban . Sending me the confirmation booking information for my reference.  As the months went by, before I knew it, the big day had finally arrived—a rare event that doesn’t happen too often. Everything had been carefully planned by my dad and his wife, Tita Cielo. When we arrived, the check-in time was 2 PM, but there was a mix-up with the rooms.

Dinner with Amy at Marzano Restaurant in Piedmont, California



How does it feel when you've reconnected back with your childhood best friend?

Walking out your home and seeing your best friend outside of her car ready to give you a big hug is a welcome back to our new friendship.

Carmina was so excited and not able to picture Amy how she would look even if you have seen pictures of her and the family.

Seeing a person is different.

Amy asked Carmina what she wanted to eat for dinner.

Moment like this we don't need to be picky because we really just want to catch up on what has been going on after our college years.

Everyone goes through friendship when we are separating ourselves to what career we want to get us into for the future.

Amy decided to eat at Marzano Restaurant.

Marzano Restaurant has no parking where you can park from the neighborhood.

Someone will approach you asking whether you would like to dine out provided with a heater when windy in the evening or dine inside where the front door is completely open.

Carmina decided to dine inside when seeing Amy had no jacket with her.

Carmina asked Amy to order for us since she has Italina blood made it easier because in my mind I was still in shock seeing my childhood best friend in front of me.

Amy had ordered us from the Antipasti (appetizers)

Crisp Fried Green Tomatoes



Sopressate (pizza)



Amy and I couldn't finish our dinner giving us leftovers.

After dining at Marzano Restaurant gives you a chance to walk outside and keep catching up what we both missed.

Till than Carmina will be visiting next year we'll still have time to catch up with each other.
