WHERE TO STAY IN SORSOGON

Aside from tasty meals at Fernando's Hotel, try
inexpensive and good Chinese food at Acacia Grill, VL
Peralta St, Sorsogon Town.
In Irosin, try some Chinese food at 7J's. And for a snack, do try the unique halo-halo (it has shaved cheese on top) at the stalls behind the market near a school (you can't miss it as most of the town seems to frequent the stands, and benches spill onto the street).
