Coron: Food Trip


We are not foodies nor culinary experts, but let us share with you two of the restaurants we enjoyed our meals. We order and share our meals with the group and our budget per meal cost 150-200php/pax.

Coron Village Lodge
We ate here twice because the prices were reasonable and because it was literally a few steps from our guesthouse. Their meals were good for sharing and were delicious. We especially loved their sinigang na baboy at hipon, as well as their bulalo. They also have free brewed coffee.

Beef Salpicao - Php180; Sizzling Tuna - Php180 
Bulalo - Php400; Pakbet - Php160
Kookies Restaurant
This came highly recommended in Tripadvisor and we had to try their famous stingray in coconut milk. It was a very unassuming place, located near the public market. We had the steamed fish, kinilaw na tangigue, pork spring rolls, and stingray in coconut milk. Food was good and prices were reasonable, although they have a lot to improve since our food took a long time to be prepared.

Other Notable Restaurants
We didn’t get to try these restaurants because we were too lazy and prefer cozying up in our rooms, but these had good reviews:
-        Sea Dive Restaurant
-        La Sirenetta
-        Bistro Coron - good pizza
-        Santinos – near Maquinit hotsprings
-        Kawayanan Grill – Filipino food
-        Lolo Nonoy’s – Filipino food
