Today, we went to this Portuguese community to buy some Portuguese cakes. We ended up looking at
Sta. Cruz church first and as went around the community, we noticed really old houses and narrow alleys leading to the residence of families of Portuguese descent who still bake the cakes as a business. Few does so at present, because many have left this occupation to be employed or do other kind of businesses. Photos of how this Potuguese community looks like now are shown below.
