Food: Chika-an sa Cebu – holiday take out

Holiday takeout at this relatively new restaurant (Dec 2019) that primarily serves Cebuano specialties, primarily seafood just as a fish pattern is used in their logo. While waiting for the food to be ready, I sat on one of the couches. The interiors feature the weave pattern a lot. The windows had a wooden accent similar to capiz windows (without the capiz).

The Food:

Pancit Guisado

Canton noodles with a saucy type of pansit. Topped with vegetables

Pork BBQ

Savory sweet pork on sticks, a usual accompaniment to pansit.

Grilled Tangigue

A seafood steak instead of beef for this one. Add some soy sauce or vinegar mix to season to your liking.

Baked Scallops

Favorite! Cheesy cheesy scallops. Might have a better presentation on a plate when eaten dine in. Cheesiness was a quite strong in this one, maybe covering up the scallop taste a bit. Anyway, a cheese lover will not complain.

Chicken BBQ

A bit too charred on the skin, but the inside was still okay

Actual dine-in date: late 2019
