The good thing in Sagada is you’ll
never run out of good places to satisfy your appetite, that I'm certain of.
But in case you want to try something else (I
didn’t say something new or something different) try dining at this simple
restaurant in front of George Guesthouse, called Kusina Ysagada.
I was craving for breakfast at past 12:00nn, but they serve breakfast only until 10:00am, my mealtimes are a bit behind the normal.
For some reasons, I found it difficult to
choose from their narrow-ranging menu list and I ended up with the pork
chopsuey. It’s an assortment of chopped
veggies like cabbage, carrots, green string beans, button mushrooms and bits of
pork, sautéed altogether and served with a cup of white rice. Not bad, the veggies taste good and cooked
just the right tenderness, I like my veggies crunchy. But the pieces of meat tastes a bit sour like
cured meat. It tastes like “tapa” or “longganisa”,
I’m not sure, maybe it’s meant to taste that way, and I just got used to
chopsuey with plain sautéed meats.
The
wait staff though are funny and friendly, but is it enough to make up for the
quality of the food? I think yes, I’m
not going to be whining about the sour-tasting meat. It isn’t that bad anyway, just fine I would
say.
Kusina
Ysagada is a small place with about 8 tables and benches (not chairs), amusing
colorful paintings of native people on the wall, and a flat panel TV.
Located
in front of George Guesthouse, before reaching Pinikpikan Haus and Lemon Pie
House.
What to order: Nothing really singularly special. I inquired from the staff about their
specialty and I got a blunt “none really” reply. So, I would say, take a chance on any item on
their menu, you might just get lucky.
Insider Tip: None really.
Serves: Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.
Price:
P120 - 200
