I was ecstatic about the invitation of Sir Avel, otherwise known as Bariles, regarding a bloggers meet-up. A chance to meet up the co-members of SOCCSKARGEN Bloggers was put into action at Genee, a new taste on Gensan's downtown.

Being on a wiser spot, Genee is surrounded by different schools on Gensan's Oval Plaza and Pendatun Avenue. The former Gensan Oval Grill was now transformed into a whole new level, from it's ambience, down to its food and quality service. Owner Rey Billena brought up the place into a whole new additional suiting taste of the city's Pendatun Avenue.

It was around 6:30 pm when I arrived their together with my school prof, Rammyboi, but not to call him "sir" whenever we are outside the school's vicinity. It was the first time I entered the newly renovated restaurant, along with my impressions on its interior designs, it was indeed a one-of-a-kind gig place. The ceiling is made up of a collaged photographs of Gensan's top photographers, on of it is Leonard Pe, and a well cleaned sight to be seen in every corner of Genee.

Later on, Sir Avel arrived and it didn't took long before we had our chunk of Genee's taste. Bangus-chicken combo in a single plate along with a fair-scored Mango Juice suits my dinner well. The sweet taste of their bangus is just getting splendid as you chunk more of it, while the chicken never failed my taste either, thus, making me more interested for an early comeback on the place. The serving is fair enough for its low price, definitely.

After a sip of the last mango juice, the orders never ended their. Sir Avel kept them coming, a dose of appetizer, such as halo-halo, together with a cup of two mango ice cream chunks. The approach on the appetizer was a real good thing after eating up your dinner, the halo-halo was large at serving but fair enough to satisfy your craving.

We ended up having our appetites full, while doing a little place-strolling, and a magic trick session by Nate Marx, it never failed his audience.

The big deal on the meeting that night was never forgotten, to experience a Northern Downpour, in a simplier meaning, in order to get attention not only in Mindanao but also to the country, we should be, at first, as a blogger, be involved in online communities which socializes, one of it is SOCCSKSARGEN BLOGGERS. Second one, blog about what's positively happening in our town lately, to gain more attractions which I guess will lead to a well-known blogger's community here in Gensan, it's a great privilage of we're in it.

So if you are a blogger of Gensan, or more general, SOCCSKSARGEN, why not sign up here. Let's continue growing up. I know we can.
