CHEF LAUDICO’S
BFAST
Makati City
WHAT IT IS: WHAT IT IS:
Headed by
husband-and-wife chef duo Roland and
Jacqueline Laudico, Bfast serves delicious
alternatives to the fast-food breakfasts that
fuel Makati’s workforce. Along with all-day
breakfast, they serve Filipino comfort
food and luscious desserts. Served in an
eco-conscious environment, no MSG or
preservatives are used in this comfort food.
INDULGE IN:
Wagyu, which makes many
appearances on the menu, is also part
of the weekend buffet (PHP388). Try the
creative twists to Filipino breakfast fare,
like their version of
tapsilog
(
Wagyu Tapa,
PHP188), Wagyu corned beef
ensaymada
sandwich and
suman
pannacotta
(
PHP108).

ZUBUCHON
Cebu City
WHAT IT IS:
The place where you can get
what celebrity chef and
No Reservations
host Anthony Bourdain anointed as the
best pig ever. Out-of-towners come here
to buy chicharon and frozen lechon for
pasalubong
,
but the small eating area
can accommodate those who need to sit
down and get their lechon fix on the spot.
Zubuchon recently celebrated its first
anniversary and has branches on Escario
Street and at Islands Stay Hotel in Mactan.
INDULGE IN:
The blistered skin of the
lechon and chicharon is, like the traditional
method in which the pig is cooked, a
Zubuchon trademark. The menu features
pork in all its guises. Try the Monggo
with lechon soup topped with chicharon
(
PHP180), Lechon Dinuguan (PHP190),
and Adobong Kangkong with Chicharon
(
PHP80). The
kamias
shake (PHP90) is an
unlikely choice, but is the best foil for the
richness of the dishes.
WHERE:
One Mango Mall, Mango Ave,
Cebu City; tel: +63 (32) 239 5697; Mon &
Tue 10am–9pm, Wed noon-3pm & 7–9pm,

pm.
Crispy lechon skin
is to die for!
Try the
Wagyu
tapsilog!
