    Does anyone know where I can buy buko pie in the Makati, BGC or BF Paranaque area? The closest I know is in Sta Rosa. I prefer the popular brands such as Original, Lety's, El Mare and Colette's. My bestfriend's Mom wants this as padala so I have to buy this on the day of the flight of my best friend

    The closest I know is Colette's on Visayas Ave. QC near DENR. 920-8441

    Colette's isn't what it used to be but if the nearest branch is in QC then you'd probably be better off buying at Sta Rosa or Tagaytay.

    OT: Buko tarts are much better than buko pie. Amira's sa Aguinaldo hiway corner SVD road (papuntang picnic grove).

    OT.
    i am confused,
    sino ba talaga ang tunay na original buko pie?
    what is the better buy? where can i get it?
    yung iba kasi, hindi na pie. piyaya na sa nipis...

    San Pablo I guess. Then yung mabango bibingka around Luisiana-amoy dahon na niluluto at 4AM sa kalsada.

    Kumusta kaya plant nurseries along Taal Talisay, I missed 1yr planting fruitrees and forestrees because of ashfall, dami daw hindi nka recover.

    It's Los Banos. Both my parents are from Laguna and we'd often buy from there. Bata pa ko blockbuster parati pila sa "The Original" buko pie. I like their Pineapple pie better though

    OT: Yep, D'Original buko pie is from LB.

    Folklore has it that the original recipe was actually for an apple pie from an expat working at IRRI. But since walang apple makuha, they used coconut instead. And was born the buko pie.

    Pero if you ask those from LB, they actually prefer Lettys to D'Original

    Nice trivia. Yup Lety's is good also! Back in the 90s we used to buy din fresh milk and chocolate milk sa UPLB, but then 90s pa lang nightmare na traffic sa Los Banos kaya I don't pass there anymore

    Lety's ang pinaka okay na buko pie. Mas kilala ang D' Original. Sa mga lumaki at tumanda sa Los Baños, Lety's.

    Teka teka teka

    Bakit ang Taal ay napunta na sa buko pie.

    Magsimula nalang tayo ng bagong thread para sa buko pie

    Ako naman, I tasted both and I still prefer D'Original. But that is just me

    Dalhin mong sasakyan yung hindi ka ititirik. Meron syang steep curves. Pababa mas challenging. May 2 parts ng road doon, bangin magkabilaan. May time dumaan ako doon, parang may bagyo ata at foggy. Yung fog nag cross over nung road, as in kita mo gumagalaw, parang usok.

    I think I drove here once & it scared me sh*t! I was then driving my old big body corolla which was prone to problems already. It was very late at night & it my first time to drive there. It was very dark, with no lights, & all trees. No other cars were there, & it felt like was a never ending turn going up. I was scared na masiraan ako, or may multo, or mag holdup hehe. After what felt like eternity, was able to see some light from some houses, & was relieved that I was able to see civilization again hehe.

    I could imagine, all the more since you were alone. Nung 80s may road kami dinadaanan sa Calauan ata, it was the first time for my Dad, brother and I to pass there at night and I ended up crying sa takot LOL. Same scenario, no other cars, no lights, no houses and the trees on both sides of the road are caving in on the middle
