I continue on my feature on our recent travel to Iloilo. This time, I just wanted to share about the food in Iloilo, which has been recognized as a gastronomic destination (UNESCO Creative. City of Gastronomy) And that was before that Michelin list came out! Being half Ilonggo and regularly traveling to my Tatay's hometown and elsewhere in the province, I've enjoyed the food there and would gladly recommend the usual, popular dishes. But I do recommend people trying the food they usually serve in homes including many versions of adobo, KBL, laswa and kansi.

| Tatoy's version of the popular pansit bihon |

| Grilled native chicken |
We actually had two lunches at different Tatoy's branches. On our first day, it was at Atria. On the second day, we went to the main branch in Villa, Arevalo. There is another branch near the airport but perhaps that's a place to eat at as a last resort or last chance before departure? Maybe others will eat there upon arrival after missing Ilonggo food for a long time?
