It was really nice that after touring Hidden Garden you could eat lunch, a one stop shop!

It even has an egg station - - they were even kind enough to crisp my bacon for me!!! One night, we tried their bibingka & hot chocolate special - - the hot chocolate is very strong, so ask for some milk if it too strong. The bibingka is very good. At around 125 pesos, it's not bad. We actually liked their merienda best. They have a merienda of Pancit & Lumpiang Shanghai that I got one afternoon that was a knockout - - order it; it's delicious & filling. My wife had Palabok & Lumpiang Gulay - - she loved it. We also had their leche flan - - maybe the best I've had in the Philippines in the 35 years I've been coming here. My wife tried their Halo-Halo; they offered it to her with vanilla ice cream because they had no ube ice cream. I tried it, vanilla worked out just fine - - tasty. The staff is very helpful. Enjoy.

According to them, this is "the house that fried chicken built." I'll have to test how good it is in the future since I've never tried it yet. This location is in the heart of Vigan City, right next to the famed Calle Crisologo. Traffic is busy and parking is tough. This is the case pretty much across the board in the Phillipines unless you're in a provincial town. I did see a few parking spots right in front of the restaurant though (good luck!) and the restaurant itself is busy as well. We had a party of 10, but lucked out and were seated right away and right in front of the air conditioner. Yay! We ordered a mix of dishes and among our table we had sinigang na baka (tamarind beef soup), pinaputok na tiyan ng bangus (popped salmon belly), crispy pata (pork knuckles), crab meat fried rice, & some other stuff that I'm not sure what it was called. The main dishes that *I* ordered were the Vigan longanisa (a specialty dish for the area) & bagnet (a deep friend crispy pork belly). For dessert I ordered the pastillas con hielo - a special shaved ice dessert mixed with sweetened beans, macapuno balls and sweetened suba topped with leche flan and Max's homemade pastillas - think elevated halo halo. I also had an ube leche flan shake. I know, I know, my dessert loving ways knows no bounds. Hehe. Due to the size of our party and our order, they told us it would be about 20 - 25 minutes which was fine. Our drinks and desserts all came out first which was fine by me! I dug into my shakes and was in heaven! This was my 2nd pastillas con hielo and this was even better than the first! It had just the right amount of sweetness and a biiiiig scoop of pastillas to top it off. OMG, delicious! The ube shake was also good, but if I had to choose between the two, pastillas con hielo all the way. Our food came out right on time and I was surprised to see my dishes come with bagoong isda (not the shrimp paste, but the sauce made with fish) mixed with tomatoes & onions. I've never tried dipping meat with that before and you know what? It was SO good and paired so well. I was so happy with my picks. Bagoong isda is not for the faint of heart though and is more of an acquired taste. If you're adventurous, go for it! I personally loved it! Loved my dishes so much that I didn't try any of the other dishes, but consensus was everything was pretty good. Overall, for the volume of customers that they get, the service is still very timely and quick. They turnover tables really fast and I noticed that once the crowds started dwindling... they turned off the a/c. Wouldn't want to be in there long at that time! Anywho, if you're hungry and in the area, this is a solid choice, especially if you plan to sight see down the Calle and want to ride in a kalesa (they line-up right on the side of the restaurant).

While the restaurant is so nice, it's hard to say the same thing about their food and service. The prices for their meals are understandable but the food was a little bit disappointing. Their Sisig had a lot of cartilage and the Kare-Kare barely had any meat in it. It was basically a huge bowl full of peanut sauce filled with 3 pcs of beef... so that was disappointing Their service wasn't exactly too friendly or responsive either and even if they did cater to you they were very blank about their service. All in all it wasn't really a great dining experience for me and my boyfriend.
