A Must try Bizarre food at Kinabuchs' Grill & Bar
Hello itinerants all over the world and steemit community! Here I go again bringing you to the best food stops in four corners of the Philippines. If you are an adventurer, explorer, and a risk taker when it comes to travel and food choices like me, then this content is for you!
Puerto Princesa as known to be the "Last Frontier of the Philippines" isn't just famous for having beautiful and stunning tourist destinations but also visited for it's most unique and bizarre food selections. The first stop for today is going to be at "Kinabuchs' Grill and Bar".
Kinabuchi is lcoated along the Rizal Avenue road, Puerto Princesa. The same as any other native restaurants and grill bars in the area, they also offer "crocodile sisig" and "tamilok" as one of their best sellers.
Personally, I've liked the place better than any others because they actually have something on their kitchen style and ambiance which really they gave effort to make the ambiance looks nice and well-maintained. The staffs were also helpful and accommodating.
Tamilok is a shipworm and best when served raw with vinegar. It is super slimy and soft. To finally have ordered this, I told my self that there's no turning back because I traveled almost an hour and a half from Cebu to Puerto Princesa to try this. To be honest, it looks really weird and disgusting so I highly suggest if you wanna try this don't look at it any longer eat it right away and soak it with vinegar. I want to commend their vinegar because it really tastes good it overrides the disgusting and slimy texture of tamilok as it goes to your throat and stomach.
It's not difficult to look for food shoppes where you can try it because most restaurants in Puerto Princesa Palawan serve Tamilok. In my case, since I was looking for native type of restaurant so I went to Kinabuchs Grill and Bar. It is owned by Butch Chase, a former motocross driver tuned to an entrepreneur. Kinabuchs is situated at 369, Rizal Avenue, Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Most of their famous restaurants are located at Rizal st. It's 15-30 minutes travel time from the airport. There are fancy wooden/bamboo tables and chairs outside and inside the bar. I like the nipa huts (The Nipa hut, Kamalig, or Bahay Kubo, is a type of stilt house indigenous to the vast majority of lowland Austronesian cultures of the Philippines.) outside they make the restaurant look native and cozy like you are living the province life at its finest.
That's basically it,
DEUCES!

If the dish is slimy and disgusting, why do you want to eat it? It sounds like an episode of our American TV show Fear Factor. But those contestants get paid big bucks to try those gross concoctions of food. You are braver than I. Your review was interesting but I would have to pass on the dish you ordered!
This is just one of the exotic foods that we have here in the Philippines. Even though it looks disgusting but still I tried it because I am always up for challenges and trying different things. :D
