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 [...]

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 [...]

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. Torres St. The newer place is much more inviting and furnished like a stylish bistro. The comfortable tables and [...]

Nha Trang Vietnamese Restaurant

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! :hungry:
And because their prices are so low, they could actually give Hanoi a run for [...]

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 [...]

This Middle Eastern restaurant has been around since last year — and has already undergone a major renovation — but it was only recently that I finally got around to dining at Turquoise Turkish Restaurant. The first time was several days ago when two Egyptians, who now live in Davao, brought me there after a [...]

This restaurant might be somewhat removed from your usual routes around Davao, but it’ll be well worth taking the trip to Mamu’s Resto•Bar. I was there for a lovely dinner with Andrew and Ria last Wednesday. And we were not disappointed.
There are few places in Davao City that offer excellent Filipino cooking amidst a classy [...]

明けましておめでとうございます！
Happy New Year!
タダクマ日本料理 [Tadakuma], a delightful Japanese restaurant that now has two branches in Davao City, is one of the places I go to for comfort food. You see, I absolutely worship Japanese cuisine, and the menu prices at this restaurant are surprisingly very reasonable, and the food is just gorgeous — hence, comfort food.

Wow! December’s turning out to be quite productive for Davao Delicious, isn’t it?? Well, the Christmas season is indeed a time for feasting, so I’ve been finding myself eating out a lot with friends this month.
When Gerry’s Grill opened two years ago, it made quite a splash in the local restaurant scene because it was [...]

Cafe Med – Flavors of the Sun

It had been several times that I’d passed by this restaurant by myself, so I’d never walked in before now — I loathe dining alone because, for me, eating out is a social activity. So on Christmas Day, I resolved to finally give it a try and brought along two blogger friends to The Cafe [...]

Marina Tuna Seafood Market & Resto

I remember when Marina Tuna was just a small, unassuming eatery sitting along the highway in one of the sleepy parts of Davao City. But I can also recall how much my friends and I instantly loved their cooking, especially their deep-fried tail of tuna — so crunchy on the outside yet heavenly soft and [...]
