Mom and my relatives from her side are Ilonggo and it would get so annoying (but adorable really) when they'd crave for Ilonggo food and we'd search high and low for it, go to different places when they hear about the new Ilonggo place that opened. I was never one to crave it but since it's family time, I'm required to go.
Thus brings me to my appreciation of Ilonggo Grille. Since they discovered its existence in Robinson's Galleria, we never had to go far again, at least not with me. But yeah, they mostly had their fix there unless it's a really bad craving. Mom says that the La Paz Batchoy is good, Pork Cadios and so is the Kansi, that's what they always look for. I try not to order else where that's why I have a go-to menu of my own: BBQ Squid, Lechon Kawali, Crablets, Chicken Bacolod and Turon if they have it. read more
