Food trip in Iloilo Restaurants
When in Iloilo, what are the things you like to eat? Here I list some of the Iloilo restaurants to visit. Of course, it is far from complete, as we have only spent a few days there. I will update this list if I get to go back there again.
Iloilo City is one of the closest metropolitan cities to Bacolod here in Southern Philippines. Most of the regional offices are there and it is no wonder that Bacolodnons often visit Iloilo City. There are many ways to get there and the easiest would be a one-hour fast craft ride. You can take the first trip to Iloilo and come back before the day ends.
