Kalami Cebu! - A Gastronomic Guide to Cebu

My wife and I usually eat out on weekends.  Since it has been a while that we last ate lechon, we decided to look for a yummy lechon place.  There used to be an eatery that serves very delicious boneless lechon near our house, but the eatery moved.  I used Google to search where Tatang's Extra Crispy Boneless Lechon relocated and found out that they have a branch in Wilson Street, Lahug. We went there and had an extra crispy and extra spicy dinner.

Cafes are usually known to be the best places to enjoy some coffee and sweets in a very relaxing setting. This is actually bad for people who are at risk of diabetes or tooth decay. One café in Lahug is making it harder for the sweet tooth to resist as they offer 1-Peso desserts.   1 Peso as in? When was the last time you can buy a delicious cake at 1 peso? To avail of this wonderful deal, all you have to do is buy 1 meal plus a beverage then the dessert is practically FREE.      I accidentally bumped into this promo when I was looking for a decent internet connection because I needed to contact someone via Viber. I ended up at Tazza Cafe and Patisserie in Lahug. Well, it was lunch time anyway so I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and iced coffee.   I was able to enjoy a delicious carrot cake for just 1 peso.

A lot of people love Italian cuisine . Pizza and pasta are very popular among Filipinos.  I checked out TripAdvisor and one of the top ten restaurants in Cebu is an Italian place in Lahug. After reading the reviews, I decided to check the place out.  La Buona Forchetta Da Paolo is restaurant located at 139 Acacia Street in Lahug.  Translated to English, La Bouna Forchetta means The Good Fork.  I actually accidentally found this place when I was checking a subdivision developer who happened to have an office in the nearby building.  At the outside, I was not expecting too much but once I got inside it was way different. The furniture looks great and it feels really homey and intimate.  I was pretty sure that I will have one heck of a lunch. It was only me and a friend that went there on that Saturday morning.  We were quite early as we arrived at La Buona Forchetta da Paolo a quarter past eleven. When I checked the menu,  I noticed that ...

Pizza Republic by Guissepe Genco opened recently in Salinas Drive, Lahug.  What is so unique about this new pizza place is that you will be able to design your own pizza.  They have countless of toppings to choose from and the possibilities are infinite.
