When we asked a staff of the hotel where we were staying for a popular eating place in Coron Town, she mentioned first ofcourse the hotel's own resto. But it was already around 3pm and lunch was already closed.
Kawayanan Grill was suggested and off we went to have lunch at 3pm in the mentioned place.
Nothing fancy about the place. I've seen a lot of it around the country with nipa huts and tables al fresco. At the back was a ruin of old spanish stable. If they owned the place, I thought it would be more interesting if they would use it and set a dining spot there.
Nothing's special too in the menu. I was looking for more authentic recipe which the town could really own. Even the prices were as higher as Manila prices. Right away we realized that foods were expensive in this town, unexpectedly. On second thought, reasonable thu' cos every ingredient was being imported from other cities except for the seafoods which were abundantly available from the town's rich sea.
lato salad
So we tried to stick on the seafood recipes which we didn't find everyday in Manila like the sting ray (pague) in chili coconut cream and some sea greens (lato) salad.
Brother on the other hand couldn't live without beef so he went for a plate of beef stew.
Don't be fooled by our nege facial expression. All dishes were actually surprisingly delicious. It must be the bill we were talking here. Hence the faces, haha.
The best was this mango shake.
