Iloilo City has recently been crowned as the ultimate Coffee Wonderland in Western Visayas (check the list of numerous Cafes here : http://hugginghorizons.com/travel/iloilo-city-a-canned-coffee-wonderland-cafes-coffee-houses/ ) , however little did some of you (except for the locals, of course.) know that Iloilo City is also considered as the food Haven of Western Visayas. The number of restaurants in the city seemed to be uncontrollably growing.

I thought of listing down the budget restaurants I have personally visited (all photos are mine) . This blog aims to help & guide the travelers / tourists, as well as the locals who would love to try out some other (either new / old) restaurants within the city.

Let’s Begin!  (I won’t be able to explain much about the featured food(s) and the restaurant(s), allow my food shots to do the talking, please. ) <3
