Restaurants in North Luzon

  1. Yoghurt House

    Fuel up here with mountain coffee and delicious homemade yoghurt before a long day of hiking or caving. Then return for dinner to carb-load on delicious vegetarian pasta dishes or rösti (shredded fried potatoes).

  2. Café Leona

    This popular eatery spilling out onto Crisologo St is a godsend for weary travellers in search of libation and sustenance after a long hot day of sightseeing. Pluses: excellent Japanese and Ilocano specialities, and frequent all-you-can-eat pasta buffets. Fusses: plastic patio furniture and a loud adjoining open-air karaoke bar.

  3. Masferré Inn & Restaurant

    The food here is among the best in town, but what really makes this place stand out are the awesome, powerful prints of the late Sagada-born photographer Eduardo Masferré. Ask the proprietor for a tour of the Masferré Gallery, which is just outside of town. Rooms were under renovation when we visited.

    Cafe by the Ruins

    The interior is awash in art, foliage and sculpted wood. It specialises in Cordillera-inspired Filipino dishes. Try the eggplant omelette with carabao cottage cheese for breakfast, or the suman at tsocolate (hot chocolate and sticky-rice cake) for afternoon tea.

  5. Pizza Volante

    The pan pizza here is tops in town, and it’s not a bad place for a beer either, especially after everything else has closed. It also has a delivery service.

  6. Bana’s Cafe

    This artsy place specialises in coffee and breakfast (great omelettes). Its narrow balcony overlooks a gorge and catches the morning sun.

    Forest House

    Unbeatable mountain setting, but wildly inconsistent food.

    reviewed

  8. Log Cabin

    One of Sagada’s many wonderful surprises is this aptly named eatery. The Western-style food is hearty and elegantly presented, and on Saturday evening there’s a buffet (prepaid reservations only) prepared by a French chef, who also bakes fresh bread for the restaurant. To top it all off there’s good wine and a fireplace. You must drop by in the morning to place your order.

    Kusima ni Ima Restaurant

    This downhome place whips up exotic Kapangpangan specialties like sweet-and-sour kalabaw, frogs stuffed with chicken and pork, frog adobo (frogs marinated with vinegar and garlic, and stewed until tender) and camaru (crickets adobo deep-fried with garlic).

  10. Oh My Gulay

    Baguio’s most creative interior is five storeys up under a vast atrium. It’s like a giant tree fort, with bridges, ladders and little nooks to hide in. The mercifully compact all-vegetarian menu is equally creative – try the tofu lumpia (small spring rolls) salad.

    Bliss Cafe

    There are Buddhas on the tables at this earthy lacto-vegetarian restaurant. Owner-chef Shanti home-cooks delectable vegetarian pasta and a few Indian dishes. The cafe moves regularly, so check the website for its latest location.

  13. Las Vegas

    This is along the ridge road north of Banaue Hotel. One of the few restaurants that tends to stay open later than 9pm. The owners are friendly and dish up decent Filipino food.

  14. Friends Country Music Bar

    This is along the ridge road north of Banaue Hotel. This favourite locals’ hang-out features live acoustic music lubricated with plenty of Red Horse extra strong ale.

    My Diner

    A classic '50s-style diner with waitresses on roller skates, Elvis photos on the wall, and reliable late-night eats and greasy breakfast food.

  16. Mario’s

    For something fancy try this attractive Italian eatery, with exotic treats such as New Zealand mussels and salmon Rockefeller on the menu.

  17. Korea Palace

    It’s not the cheapest of Baguio’s squillion Korean restaurants, but it is the best. The setting is a gorgeous 1930s wooden mansion.

  23. Uno Grille

    The food here is of a high standard and it also does a mean black forest cake.

    Don Henrico's. Its pizza is good; its pizza wraps are better.
