The family decided to dine and remember the experience before we bid it farewell. I encourage you to take the opportunity as well.
My mom invited her college friend who came all the way from the United States to join us. We booked a week in advance. The dining experience begins with a tour around the Legarda Home.
Our last stop of course, is the dining area where our table was already set up with a Murano Bird centerpiece and laden with rose petals. The Murano Birds were purchased by Don Alejardo and Dona Ramona Legarda during their first trip to Italy. And, were used as far as the 1920's.
