ILOILO CITY GASTRONOMY

Nestled in the heart of Western Visayas, Iloilo City is a captivating destination that seamlessly blends culture, heritage, and gastronomy. Known as the “City of Love,” Iloilo is renowned for its warm-hearted people, well-preserved ancestral houses, historic churches, and charming plazas, each reflecting a storied past. The city’s diverse culinary scene showcases the rich flavors of Ilonggo delicacies, from mouthwatering seafood dishes to hearty comfort food like batchoy and pancit molo. Immerse yourself in the bustling markets and vibrant food stalls, indulge in authentic Ilonggo cuisine, and experience the vibrant arts and cultural scene that make Iloilo City a truly captivating and enriching destination.

Iloilo has always been known for its culinary wonders, and is now on its way to becoming officially recognized as the hotspot of diverse ingredients in the country.
And that’s precisely why there’s more to Iloilo than the ubiquitous soup-based dishes of La Paz Batchoy and the Pancit Molo.

There’s the KBL, the acronym for the soup-based dish of kadyos, baboy, and langka (pigeon peas, pork, and jackfruit), which has another key ingredient of batuan, a sour tropical fruit endemic in Panay Island.
Then there’s also the rustic laswa, another soup-based dish made out of a variety of vegetables such as squash, okra, eggplant, patola, and tomato.
