    Recommendations for foreigners:
    1. Afriques
    *Italian food with a touch of Ilonggo-ness.
    2. Roberto’s
    *Iloilo’s oldest homegrown fastfood restaurant. Delicious siopao, pansit and burgers. No foreigner leaves Iloilo without eating here.
    3. Deco’s
    *Newest Batchoyan on the block. Established in 1938, it is one of the best tasting Batchoys ever since Ted’s.
    4. La Sallete Building
    *Choose your pick of some of Iloilo’s native restaurants.
    5. Breaktrhu
    *Chosen as the best restaurant in the region during last year’s WV Tourism Assembly. Eat native chicken, seafood and other delicacies beside the beach
    6. Tatoy’s
    *Ilonggo classic. Truly one of the best.
    7. Mang Inasal
    *The most successful Ilonggo fastfood chain ever and is currently the country’s number one chicken barbecue chain. They also offer free rice refills.
    8. Coffeebreak
    *The most successful coffee chain of Iloilo. Has branches all over the city and at Boracay. They offer free Wi-fi.
    9. JD Bakeshop and Cafe
    *Personally recommending this. The best in Ilonggo cuisine and very much affordable for all.

    WOW!!! That video made me feel homesick, and of course…H U N G R Y!
    The government of Iloilo is vigorously promoting our culture and heritage thru this video production.
    I would say Ilonggo dishes are quite unique and distinctive compared to other Filipino dishes. While watching the video, I realized that there are so many young, “serious & professional” Ilonggo chefs around to carry on with the legacy. They featured an array of Ilonggo dishes but they forgot one of my favorites, a very distinctive one, the LUMPIA Ubod.
    Few months more and I will have the chance to graze on authentic Ilonggo delicacies! And of course, I’m eyeing on those restaurants listed in Explore Iloilo website. Thanks for the work well done, Marcos!
