Unfortunately, I did not get a chance to bite into one of their Whoppers because of the lousy service. I am a patient guy, but when you totally ignore me and help 10 other folks without acknowledging me.......well, that means you have no interest in my business. So, I took my business elsewhere. Suffice it to say, I do NOT recommend patronizing the Burger King at Ayala Center in Cebu.

Alright... you're rolling through Cebu, Philippines... and your feed keeps screaming about this…read morespot. No white tablecloths. No reservations. Just smoke, sizzling oil, and a crowd that knows exactly what's up. So yeah... we had to pull up. This is Punko-Punko sa Fuente. Street food chaos--in the best possible way. Here's how it works. You walk up to this table stacked with a glorious, borderline dangerous pile of fried goodness. No menus. No fuss. You point at what you want. The person running the table grabs it, chops it into bite-sized pieces right in front of you, and hands it back like it's street gold. You grab some rice--wrapped in these heart-shaped woven coconut leaves--dip everything into that sharp, punchy vinegar sauce... and now you're eating the way Cebu wants you to eat. First up--Chicharon Bulaklak. Crispy. Chewy. Salty in all the right ways. This thing hits like a late-night food dream. 9.5 outta 10. Then the Liempo. Thin strips, but still thick enough to get that porky texture. Juicy. Perfectly seasoned. No nonsense. Solid 9 outta 10. Next--Lumpiang Shanghai. Golden. Crunchy. That crisp snap when you bite in? Yeah... it's there. Filling is rich, savory, comforting. 8.9. Then the Stuffed Crab. The filling? I love it. Crab's there, veggies are there. Maybe a little more veggie than I'd like--but hey, some people might swear by it. 7.7. But the sleeper hit? The egg with veggies. Hard-boiled egg wrapped in this veggie mixture and fried until the outside's got attitude. The combo just works. Unexpected. Bold. Delicious. 9.5 easy. This place? No frills. No filters. Just Cebu street food doing what it does best--big flavor, fast hands, and zero apologies. If you're ever in Cebu... do yourself a favor. Pull up a stool. Grab some vinegar. And get messy.

I understand the hype. Pungko-Pungko sa Frente certainly knows how to put on a show, with loud…read morecalls, energetic staff, and tables piled high with food. The lively presentation draws people in, but unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the performance. The thin-sliced pork chops looked as though they should have been the highlight--looked crispy and crunchy like chicharrones. Instead, they were tough and seemed undercooked. Biting into the pork chop skin was like chewing on shoe leather. They were nowhere near the crisp, crunchy texture I expected. The Shanghai lumpia had almost no filling, consisting mostly of a soggy wrapper and oil. The crab cakes served in the shell didn't seem to contain any crab either--just potato and jicama. And the meatballs would be more accurately described as a jicama balls. The rice puso was cold, bland, and dry. At first, I wondered whether that was simply how it was meant to be, but it made the meal even less enjoyable. The chicharron bulaklak was another disappointment. It didn't seem properly prepared and had an unpleasant aftertaste. Overall, it looks like a fun experience, but the meal finished flat. The atmosphere and presentation are entertaining, but the food itself didn't deliver. Not recommended. 2 stars.

As the food came, I thought my picky son would push the sizzling plate aside. But he didn't. Instead, he finished everything on the plate, including the vegetables. He gave me a thumbs up sign and said it's delicious. The ambiance was simple and not too crowded. It was cold inside. We sat near the table with AC blasting at us. Overall, this was a good place to have dinner.

Best Native Chicken! [CEBU CITY Philippines]…read more When it comes to food, Cebu has a lot to offer. From savory lechon (roast pork) to sweet desserts Cebu is a foodie's paradise. But we have been eating some form of lechon since we arrived on New Year's Day so I was getting tired of it LoL! just a little. I ordered grilled chicken instead. Conching's is famous for one thing: their charcoal-grilled native chicken. What is a native chicken? They are more commonly raised in rural areas, cage-free. They are smaller in size than the regular chicken, it's because of their organic diet. Both its size and diet make these native chicken unique and more natural in taste. We ordered two servings and it didn't disappoint. So delicious, salted just right and the skin is crunchy. Setting looks rundown, nothing fancy with long tables and plastic chairs and a grill out front. Very laid back. Live music entertained the diners... young adults with music instruments. I was amused. Filipinos love to sing. LoL!Friendly service. I just didn't like the flies... we had to keep swatting them so they don't go on our food. Review #3349

Not sure what authentic should feel like but this restaurant felt authentic considering I was the only foreigner there... One of the waiters is an interesting one - done up in a lot of make up and apparently very flirtatious and seems like he's a staple of the restaurant per their Facebook page... Anyway the native chicken cooked on these little grills but the chicken themselves are tiny - you probably need about one chicken a person. They have a lot of other grilled and friend foods including various fish - milkfish was the only one I recognized. We also tried the ceviche (local name I don't remember) but extremely good!! You should also try the puso which are the individually packaged rice which are local to cebu.... Very cool place and recommended if visiting,
