Be serenaded with Filipino music

Soak up the vibe of Filipino culture while you dine, with lively entertainment featuring traditional music and dance. The setup is like a big “boodle fight,” where you can dig into a variety of dishes and have a great time with friends. Start off with a refreshing aperitif like guava-passion fruit lambanog or a citrus-guava mocktail, then munch on unique appetizers like embutido-stuffed inasal wings, glazed banana liempo lumpia, pusit isaw (squid skewers), and hibe ukoy bao (dried shrimp fritter steamed bun).

One of my top picks from the appetizers is the Buro "Surf & Turf"—a delightful mix of fermented red rice and tender pork mask. These tiny bites are packed with flavor, making them the perfect starter to whet your appetite!

For my drink, I chose something unusual. Mais con Yelo is quite famous as a Filipino dessert, but as a drink, who would think? They blend sweet corn to capture its delicious flavor and then top it with crispy rice for a satisfying crunch.

Get ready for an exciting culinary adventure with six “forgotten” dishes from different regions! These authentic Filipino creations have been off the menu for too long, and now they’re making a comeback. Don’t miss your chance to taste these hidden gems!

Lauya from Iloilo

Lauya (Iloilo)

Iloilo's Lauya is like a cozy hug in a bowl, reminiscent of bulalo or nilaga but with a delightful ginger twist. The tender pork leg melts in your mouth, making it the perfect comforting dish for those rainy days!

Tiyula Itum from Davao

Tiyula Itum (Davao)

I’m a big fan of coconut milk dishes, but Tiyula Itum from Davao is a game-changer! This rich black soup packs a smoky punch from burnt coconut meat, adding a whole new level of flavor. With a hint of spice and incredibly tender beef and goat, it’s a truly unforgettable experience!

Pagulong at Pasayan from Sorsogon

Pagulong at Pasayan (Sorsogon)

Pagulong at Pasayan is a mouthwatering treat from Sorsogon, featuring succulent shrimp and crunchy sigarilyas bathed in rich coconut cream.

Nilatik na Kalabasa from Iloilo

Nilatik na Kalabasa (Iloilo)

Nilatik na Kalabasa from Iloilo is a delicious blend of creamy mashed squash in rich coconut milk and tender shrimp, with a hint of sweetness, all elegantly wrapped in banana leaves for an irresistible treat!

Pancit na Puso from Cavite

Pancit Puso (Cavite)

Pancit Puso is a delightful specialty from Cavite that combines bihon and miki noodles with a medley of savory pork, juicy shrimp, fishballs, kikiam, chicken, and fresh vegetables. With its perfect balance of flavors and a touch of tanginess, it’s so delicious you won’t even need calamansi!

Kinilaw na Langka from Cebu

Kinilaw na Langka (Cebu)

Cebu's Kinilaw na Langka is the perfect side dish, bursting with vibrant flavors! The strong tanginess beautifully balances the sweetness of ripe jackfruit, making it a refreshing complement to any meal.

Lechon

While we have our “forgotten” dishes, we also have what we jokingly called “forbidden” delights like Crispy Pata and Lechon. Who can resist those mouthwatering favorites? But seriously, Salu-salo sa Waterside offers a treasure trove of Filipino dishes to savor, including inihaw na liempo, boiled crab, clam soup or halaan, adobo sa gata, and so much more! Each bite is a delicious celebration of Filipino flavors!

Dessert!

And of course, no meal is complete without dessert! Indulge in timeless favorites like creamy leche flan and refreshing buko pandan. Treat yourself to saging con yelo, sweet tupig, and a selection of fresh fruits. But my personal favorite has to be the delightful Pinipig Lollipop—it's a must-try that will have you coming back for more!
