"The Philippines is a nation of 100% certified foodies, and Filipino cuisine certainly "rocks" in umami - so it's no wonder that our dishes are so delicious. According to the highly respected Filipino novelist/writer Nick Joaquin, As the highly respected Filipino novelist/writer Nick Joaquin has said, "We have developed a fish and rice-based cuisine, eating fish with fish condiments, flavouring our fish dishes with fish - when we dip fish into patis, our ubiquitous condiment made from fermented prawns and small fish, we're dipping fish into fish."
Much of our cuisine comprises saucy, comfort foods, and we use sofrito, a natural, ripe tomato-sautéed flavour base, for many of our most popular dishes. Here, tomatoes are cooked until the skins curl, ensuring a strong umami taste. Although Filipino food also makes use of such flavour enhancers as butter, animal fats and oils, using umami-rich foods like ripe tomatoes helps to reduce calories whilst ensuring that the dish remains deliciously rich and full in flavour. This is particularly relevant in the current age, in which umami can be used to ensure food remains satisfying without becoming unhealthy".

Adobo is deservedly the most popular dish in the Philippines, and it has become Nancy's personal crusade to promote adobo throughout the world as cuisine well representative of Filipino flavour. Traditionally accompanied by sweet pickled green papaya called "atsara" and white rice, adobo is a great example of the "saucy comfort foods" that make up so much of the Filipino menu. Always slightly sour, due to being cooked in vinegar, the umami of adobo can be enhanced by adding extra soy sauce or coconut milk.
This secluded and rustic island resort in Guimaras is a secret beach escape for foodies and beach lovers. There is no electricity on the island -- only solar-powered lights at night so that you can enjoy a no-TV, no-telephone experience. This Saldaña family-owned island resort does not advertise to preserve its “un-commercial” charm.
It really is back-to-basics, where the food is prepared using slow cooking methods and wood-fire oven techniques. They only serve the freshest seafood from the market and the best mangoes from the island of Guimaras. All you have to do is literally swim, sleep and eat five times a day. Indeed, Isla Naburot lives up to its name, which means “beautiful island”.
Pampanga is the culinary center of the Philippines, and Claude Tayag’s Bale Dutung (House of Wood) is the best place to taste true-blue Pampanga cuisine. They offer a private dining group experience (minimum of 10) where you enjoy a long, slow-cooked, five-hour lunch.
You have the option of having the Kapampangan menu or the now-famous 5-Ways Lechon with Sisig menu. Each dish is cooked to perfection. They only serve one dish at a time to ensure that guests get to savor each one until the desserts are served. So when you’re there, just sit back, relax, enjoy the hospitality of the Tayags, and take in the simple yet artistic ambiance of Bale Dutung.
4. Breakthrough Restaurant, Iloilo
Breakthrough is the undisputed king of fresh seafood in Iloilo, and the number one tourist spot in the city. It is famous for its Aligue Rice and the Managat fish (also known as red snapper or mangrove jack). Native Chicken Inasal, and fresh and baked oysters are also served here.
The restaurant is the brainchild of marine biologist Raymundo Robles, who just wanted to have a side restaurant business for his wife. It was named after every scientist’s aspiration, which is to achieve a breakthrough in his/her field.
The best part of the Breakthrough experience is being able to enjoy the glorious food (and the popular vinegar called Sinamak) with the fresh sea breeze blowing around you.
