Authentic Bicol Cuisine and other Province of Albay, Philippines Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: Tago-Tago Food Garden

It is located in the outskirts of Legaspi City, away from the usual city noise and pollution. Tago-tago Food Garden's specialty is spicy Bicol food cooked/laced with coconut milk. The place has lot of coconut trees and ornamental plants shading the cottages and providing a fresh and cool rural ambiance. Nipa cottages floating in a mid-size pond are for small-group of guests. For big groups, screened pavillions that can accomodate up to 40 persons each are available.

Favorite Dish: The specialty of the place that shouldn't be missed >> Bicol Express, Ginataang kilawing tanguigue. Grilled fish.

Address: San Roque, Legaspi City
Directions: "Tago-tago" means well-hidden. Hence, going there means driving through a string of narrow road as if you got lost and a first class restaurant is not within the area. But any local should know the place >> ask for directions.

Restaurant Name: Biggs Diner

Biggs Diner is a Bicol homegrown fastfood restaurant. A favorite by locals throughout the years, it has a big following as affirmed by having 3 branches within the city. For road travellers like us who might pass by Legaspi City in the wee hours of the night and need a fast and good food in a flash, Biggs is it.

The 24-hour branch is located at the city center and is frequented by city night owls, the restaurant has a cozy typical diner set-up with comfy soft-cushioned long seats with backrest that soothes the back after that long drive.

Favorite Dish: Their breakfast meals are superb. I like their "******silog" series.
