Dr. Roberto G. Visco, Director of the Makiling Center for Mountain Ecosystems (MCME) and Assistant to the Vice Chancellor of the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Community Affairs (OVCCA) had a chance to introduce some of his Ilocano native dishes to UP Vice-President for Administration Nestor G. Yunque and his company during their visit in the Mount Makiling Forest Reserve ASEAN Heritage Park (MMFR AHP) Central Forest Experimentation Station (CFES) on 23 March 2018.
Together with VP Yunque were the UPLB Vice-Chancellor for Administration Crisanto A. Dorado and Assistant to Vice-Chancellor for Administration Genaro A. Cuaresma. They ate a sumptuous lunch with the MCME Director and his staff amidst the relaxing beauty and serenity of the forest reserve.
MCME staff had perfectly prepared all the dishes with due supervision of Director Visco. Other dishes were delicately prepared by the Director himself who always has a unique way of hospitality. It has been a meaningful and memorable day between the MCME and UP officials and a start of a long time partnership and camaraderie.
