Resto Review: Luis Linaga-an

Because Life caught up with me and I was busy with it. I did not really have time to sit down and type articles though I have lots of ideas.

Today, since there was a power outage and I could not do anything without electricity, the hubby and I decided to go to the city. SM City was still close at 9:30 AM, so we walked a little bit further and ate at Luis Linaga-an. Where the BEST PATA is served in Iloilo, according to the hubby and who am I to argue. (did not bring camera, so no pix: photo below grabbed from the net)

Luis Linaga-an has 2 branches; one in Diversion Road near SM City Mandurriao, Iloilo City and the other one near Mandurriao Plaza.

It's open 24 hours a day and the menu for Nilaga is shown here, not updated. The PATA is no longer 70 pesos, it is now 80 pesos and the UNOD is 70 pesos. The rest is as is.

Although famous for nilaga, they also serve other dishes since this is technically an eatery.

But this review is for the nilaga, so I'll get on with it.

What we like about the nilaga (boiled meat) of Luis Linaga-an first and foremost is it's not oily. So imagine how many filters and processes the meat has gone through to remove all those oily substances you normally have to contend with when eating this kind of dish.

Second, the unod (meat), kasudluan (innards), and matuk (eyes and brain) are tender and easy to chew, again the intricate process of cooking perfection is not neglected.

Third, no matter what time of day you eat at Luis Linaga-an, the Linaga is always; not microwaved hot but HOT as in left to boil in a pot kind of hot.

Fourth, UNLI SABAW (broth). Yey!!! Even if you do not ask for one, its offered readily. And its tasty sabaw too.

Fifth, the eatery is always clean.

Sixth, the meal is always delicious so you get your money's worth.

Today, we had HALO because that's the only available Laga. And the hubby commented that it's only in the Philippines where you can find a tasty dish that involves the intestines of animals because in other culture, they usually throw this away or use it only as a wrap for sausages and that's rare.

So happy eating.
