    The food here is so fresh! You can see the fish you eat in the fish pens next to the dining area…read more Their Ilocano dishes are fresh and tasty. Can't beat the location, floating on the river.

    After so many years, I came back to the Philippines to support one if it's finest institutions. Dr…read more Ferdinand Anno invited me to this Riverfarm knowing that I loved organically-grown seafood. Its a hidden fish farm next to a river, with floating huts and tables around surrounded by a lush green vegetation of trees and coconuts. Bathrooms are available and parking is certainly all over under trees and shade, this was so inviting and reminded me of the prairies surrounded by singing birds, and the chirping sounds of crickets and other insects. We ordered a bunch of locally-sourced fish and other interesting seafood galore. The grilled milkfish is to die for, smelled fresh and tasty and was partnered with a side dish of "pakpaku", a local vegetable favorite ,and garnished with tomatoes and freshly harvested peopers. We also had their "Dinakdakan" which is a local design, a grilled pork with mayonnaise, species with tomatoes and garlic galore. This cacauphony of slightly cooked meats was so creamy and the vinegrette and mayonnaise complemented the tastes of the smokey meat and garnishes. The Malaga fish was also grilled to perfection and it tasted like a light fleshy fish and when you dip it in fish sauce with Onions and tomatoes, you begin to enjoy its freshness and seafood qualities. The " dinengdeng or inabraw" was another local creation which was a combination of long beans, saluyot and shrimp to enhance the flavors of the Northern part of Luzon. But when they offered me to taste the "pakpaku or fern" I became excited to explore a grass looking weed I have never had in my life. The fern was light steamed and garnished with tomatoes and Onions and a little fish sauce. The fern veggie was crunchy and tasted like regular Seaweed but neutral on the side. I loved the crunchiness and grasslike twists that played into my mouth which to me was a perfect company to my fish and other vegetables in the menu. So, if you're visiting the Northern part of Philippines, drop by this place and eat their food, enjoy the landscape and dive in to the culinary delights that attracted Spain, Japan and Americans to this beautiful and luscious country.
