The clip posted above was taken from a two-part special and was originally aired on local Philippine TV on December 4 & 11, 2009.

On the first part of their Mountain Province episode, they've showed Sagada's hidden gem, the Sumaguing Cave, Echo Valley's hanging coffins, Rock Inn's orange picking, and the Sagada inns and souvenir shops. They also made a quick stop at the Bontoc Museum. Thanks to the very nice guides of the Sagada Genuine Guides Association (SAGGAS) that assisted all the staffs of Trip na Trip during their entire stay.

On the second part of their Mountain Province episode, it was even a more fun-filled, heart-pounding yet, full-flavored episode. Uma and Kian had a very intense and bumpy ride, during their whitewater rafting experience at the Chico River. Afterwhich, Kat and Kian went to Bomod-ok Falls, also known as the Big Falls of Sagada, together with John, their guide. Trip na Trip also went to visit the Sagada Pottery. Last part of this episode was alloted for the famous restaurants in Sagada like Dalikan Restaurant, Saint Jo Cafe, Salt and Pepper, and of course, The Sagada Lemon Pie House. They've talked about our pies, our interiors, our ambiance, and yes, our free Wi-Fi.

About Us: A Brief History

The Sagada Lemon Pie House is owned by Joseph Daoas. It was Joseph's mother, Elena Daoas, a native from Candon, Ilocos Sur (married to Bartolome Daoas, originally from Poblacion, Sagada) that started it all. It was her original recipe and she passed it to Joseph that later improved the recipe to make it taste even better.

It took 12 years for Joseph to perfect the recipe. He experimented to get the right amount of flour for the crust and the right texture for the filling. It was five years ago when the lemon pie reached its greatest improvement. But of course, it didn't end there.

In 2008, the Sagada Lemon Pie House was opened to the public for the first time, but it wasn't a hit. So Katrina decided to bring her lemon pies to the public market, downtown Poblacion, to get better sales. Soon, more and more people buy their pies, and the rest is history. Nowadays, you can taste some of our lemon pies in local stores and restaurants in Sagada. Just ask where the Sagada Lemon Pie House is and anyone from town can tell you where it is. We also serve fresh brewed coffees, egg pies, and even pastries.

The Sagada Lemon Pie House is located in Atey, Daoangan, Sagada. You may ask us your questions, comments, suggestions by calling us at mobile number (63) 907-7820360.
