🇵🇭 VIGAN, ILOCOS SUR
I think that I've been so invested in this Dunkin' Donut store lately; and to give light to that wondering, my motivation to blog has its peak and low points. It just so happened that I got motivated to blog again the past few weeks. Co-incidentally, Dunkin' Donuts store returned in our laid back provincial city. That is probably the reason why I've created more contents about this store than the usual. It became my subject at the momentary height of my blogging mojo.
In another angle, I love browsing Google Local Guides. I love reading people's review there. I am also an avid contributor in that platform. Inspired by the Local Guides concept, I got this idea to do it in my own platform—edmaration.com. I started this idea with the Dunkin' Donuts store in Vigan. I have just published ▼ MY REVIEW
🇵🇭 VIGAN • 2023 Dunkin' Donuts Store Guide And Review
This article features updates, guides, curated information, historical timelines, and significant events about Dunkin' Vigan store. of that store, but I decided to create a separate post of my narratives. So, here I am, writing this story while Typhoon Goring is flooding us.
► How Did I Learn About the Opening?
I've already heard about the return of Dunkin' in Vigan in our SSC forum, but I didn't know the exact date. I randomly saw a post from a Facebook friend who shared about the opening of the 800th store in Laoag. Curious about what happened, I checked the timeline of Dunkin', and I found out that the brand opened 13 new stores in the Philippines. Their Vigan store was part of the 13x13 event that happened on the 13th of August 2023. I only learned about the opening, though, on the 14th.
At the height of my blog writing mojo, I rushed to check the newly opened store. I was so motivated to create a content that I even planned to make a vlog—though it did not materialize due to some circumstances.

Well, I do understand the situation. Putting up a business in that area means you have to comply with the rules. As far as I know, you cannot display random balloon decorations or just any random ornaments for an extended period of time in the area. It's a highly regulated historic tourist zone. You cannot even display a huge sign board for your business. This is the main reason why it's hard to locate a store in this area if you are a first-timer or a non-resident of Vigan.
► Why Didn't I Enter the Store?
Upon locating the store, the surrounding area was so quiet. It was around 2 PM, a siesta hour. I wondered why people who are eager to visit the newly-opened store were not around. Didn't the people of Vigan hear about it? I sneaked a peek at the store, and what I saw made me decide not to enter.

In contrary to the situation outside, inside the store was a tightly-packed crowd. Oh well, the quiet cobblestone street outside was deceiving.
The queue was long; so, I decided not to enter the store. I didn't want to stress myself with the "opening high" when I could revisit the store in another day.
What I did was just to take photos of the location of the store, and I decided to return some other time to dine inside and to check the store interior.
This blog is about my first encounter with the new Dunkin' store. Welcome back to the heritage city of Vigan, Dunkin'! • END OF STORY
