Not sure about Raspberries but (apart from in the morning after a proper good curry night) I heard, I mean I saw some strawberries in our local shopping mall for almost 300.00 Pesos for one good mouthful!!
Of course..In Baguio, it's different.

I like strawberries but I love raspberries, especially with ice-cream and a bit of sugar. :hubbahubba:

I cant get the link to open.
Found raspberries here a couple of years ago. Very small but still taste very similar to what you would get in the UK. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

The raspberry plantation is located in Bangkong Kahoy Valley in Dolores, Quezon (this will be quite near to yours :biggrin:). It's called locally as Sampinit.
