As time goes by, my blog looks more like a bullet-point presentation than the journal-esque scribbling I was aiming for. But then here goes some of the Iloilo food trip highlights in what else... bullet-form:
(Here we go tickler-style)
- I'm IN LOVE WITH BISCOCHO HAUS. PERIOD.
- Iloilo has the best Butterscotch in the Philippines, and I'm not talking about the Biscocho Haus Butterscotch but Tita Sandra's friend's butterscotch. Awezyumm.
- Looking for pasalubong? Biscocho haus has too many food to take home and Deco's offer a wide array of food give-aways or pasalubongs.
- Since Iloilo is located near Bacolod, there is no place that (or people who) worship Andoks or Sr Pedro's lechon manok. What's in? What else? Mang Inasal. Doi. Don't be surprised if prices are just the same, they're franchised. Doi.
- Also, chicken parts from breast to legs to necks to feet are sold like fishballs at the heart of Iloilo City. The site is parallel to local streetfood vendors of Manila. Note well that "pecho"is latin for "breast" ergo, chicken breast. Street pechos range from 45 pesos (US 95 cents) to 55 pesos (US $1.05)
- Try Deco's or Ted's (a toss-up), best Batchoy house(s). FYI, Batchoy in Iloilo is kinda sweet and take note, you could ask for extra chicharon in any Batchoy house franchise, or major Inasal restos nationwide. :')
- I tried the fresh cow's ice drops. Honestly, there's no much difference with the ice drops here not really a "Eureka!" moment.
As an appetizer you can say "Batchoooyyy!!"
Yeah, I ain't mindin' the mugshots when indulged with eating.
Introducing... Fedi Lima! HAHA. That's the foo
d and the chicharon right there LOOK!
For (second) main course. The original Mang Inasal.
Food time! 13 ain't a lucky number hence, food arrived LATE! wenks.
For dessert. Try out native cow's milk ice drops :) ...
...at Racso's Woodland Hotel and Wildlife Resort, where there's zoos, pools, and rooms and stuff.
i prefer Deco's than Ted's :P
