Punot - Iloilo

I tried bulalo for the first time, and I found it to have a unique sour flavor. The potatoes were thinly sliced, rich in taste, and the meat was tender and easy to chew. The Kare-Kare with seafood was also delightful, featuring nuts and fresh ingredients that paired wonderfully with the shrimp paste, which enhanced the entire dish. The sizzling dish was decent, but the kilawin was a standout. It had a fresh, citrusy, and tangy flavor that I highly recommend. It was served in a shot glass, which was a nice touch. Overall, it was an excellent and affordable lunch, with generous portion sizes. The restaurant's cleanliness and location were commendable, and the staff was friendly and efficient.

One of the top places to enjoy Ilonggo cuisine, this restaurant features popular local dishes such as linagpang, kbl, kadios ubad, and fresh seafood. It also serves a fusion of Ilonggo and Western dishes, including the balingon pomelo salad and more. Punot provides delicious food and excellent service, making it a great choice for families and groups of friends looking for affordable meals.

The restaurant features an open-air veranda on the second floor, perfect for those of us who enjoy dining al fresco during the pandemic. The veranda provides a lovely view of the Ilo esplanade.
