Steamed Prawns With Garlic Butter

One of the most visited beach resort in Cebu city is Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort. Can you imagine a white sandy beach with palm trees and friendly staffs? This is I think one of the things you should see in this beautiful city. I know that among other lovely beaches , there are several food escapades that are captivating, animated and tummy-filling.
