It’s so great to unwind and settle for a dining place that’s inexpensive, laid back and unpretentious, but without having to sacrifice quality or taste. That’s how I feel about this new place in Barrio Obrero, Vianda Buena. The proprietors — my friends Ahbet, Rikki and Hubert — call it their “sosyal na carinderia“. It’s [...]

Loading ...I am all for Japanese cuisine, but I also love spicy food. I speak Nihongo and I have immersed myself in the Japanese culture since I was a kid, but when it comes to food, I sometimes cross the Sea of Japan to Korea. See, aside from wasabi there’s not much else that’s spicy in [...]

Loading ...At the recently-opened Robinson’s commercial complex in Bajada, a refreshingly new brand of specialty restaurant has opened its shop doors to Davao’s diners. While Thai cuisine has already been in Davao for many years now, Bangkok Wok presents it in style. Doing away with the traditional Thai images we’ve gotten used to, Bangkok Wok is [...]

Loading ...Antonio’s Bar & Grill has two restaurants in Davao City: the first one in SM City, the other and better-looking one in the new Metro Lifestyle commercial building on the corner of Jacinto Ext. and F.

Loading ...The chic yet cozy ambiance, and the Australian-inspired touches… The tasty pasta and waffles (which they call “jaffles”)… The friendly and capable service… The heavenly coffee! All that, and a bit more, in one delightfully inspired package called Jose Rafael Fine Coffee.
The first time — and up to the 4th time so far — that [...]

Loading ...A Vietnamese restaurant in the heart of the city that’s rather low-key but certainly worth your palate’s attention is Nha Trang. The location and the place itself are unassuming, but their cooking is now one of my favorites in Davao!
And because their prices are so low, they could actually give Hanoi a run [...]

Loading ...It’s very refreshing to see food establishments in Davao that come out and offer new things to stimulate the taste buds — those that veer away from the typical chicken barbecue that you see all around. This is what my friends and I have discovered at Tunalicious, a relatively new ‘native’ restaurant in town.

One of my guilty pleasures is good coffee — that elixir of the gods. And that’s one of the rare reasons why I miss Metro Manila. In Davao, we don’t have the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (my most favorite café) or UCC (whose coffee offerings might be overpriced, but are excellently brewed). There may [...]

Loading ...If you’re looking for a classy but cozy café in Davao City (or in Tagum, for that matter), Caffè Firenzo just might be the place for you. There are presently two in the city: their first coffee shop is in Lanang, and the newer one is in downtown Davao.
Caffè Firenzo’s brews are alright — their [...]

Loading ...This restaurant has been around for a long time now, and it’s one of those that I enjoy each time I visit. The food — Filipino cuisine — is simply delicious. Yellow Fin Seafood & Restaurant is on its way to becoming a culinary institution in Davao City.
Typical of early Davao dining places was the [...]

That was how my food blog looked when it was born and up until a few hours ago. It was a very simple theme, but it did work for me while it lasted. And now…
I know, I know — I did say that I wouldn’t redesign Davao Delicious back in November. But, I found this [...]
