Pinakbet Farm a small restaurant overlooking
one of the tributaries of Meztizo River. Tables
and benches are neatly arranged on a pavilion-
type open-aired setting. Wood dominates the
theme of the restaurant and with the breeze
wafting in, it makes for a very rustic and pro-
vincial ambience. On the left of the dining hall
are fish pens set along the river. Pinakbet Farm
came about as tourism from Vigan City started to boom. Thinking of capitaliz-
ing from the tourist run-off of its neighbor, the owner of Pinakbet Farm decid-
ed to put up a restaurant that visitors would find unique and appealing.

Ilocos Sur is located along the western coast of Northern Luzon. It is
bounded by Ilocos Norte on the North, Abra on the northeast, Mountain Prov-
ince on the east, Benguet on the southeast, La Union on the south and West
Philippine Sea on the west. Its area of 2,579.58 kilometres occupies about
20.11% of the total land area of Region I. the topography of Ilocos Sur is un-
dulating to rolling with elevations ranging from 10 to 1,700 meters above see
level.

Long before the Spaniards came to the Philippines, settlements already
existed along the coves (locally known as the looc) in the northwestern part of
Luzon. This region, then known as Samtoy (from sao mi ditoy or our lan-

Prince Ferdinand, the son of King Philip od Spain.

The Spaniard’s effort to Christianize this whole region was never com-
pletely successful owing to the abusive conduct of the Augustinian friars in-
cluding the maltreatment done by government and military personnel which
led to seveal uprising by locals (the Ylocanos). On February 2, 1818, a Royal
Decree was signed splitting the Ylocanos into teo provinces: Ilcoos Sur and
Ilocos Norte and also annexed Lepanto and Amburayan in Mountain Province

The Spanish colonization of the region, however, was never completely
successful. Owing to the abusive practices of many Augustinians friars, many
Ilocanos revolted against their colonizers. Noteworthy of these were the
