Trattoria Uma: A must try in Bacolod

Trattoria Uma is one of the restaurants my husband and I tried when we visited Bacolod. It was dinner time and we wanted to rest early. So we just ordered pizza which we then brought to our hotel. I forgot what exactly the name of this pizza is (if you know, please do leave a comment) but it's thin crust with lots of arugula. It was quite tasty and priced at around Php450.00. They have other scrumptious dishes in their menu but some of it were a bit expensive for our budget, hence, the pizza. 

Kailan Leaves (Chinese Broccoli) Dishes - My Own Invention

So I have been harvesting my own Kailan leaves or Chinese Broccoli for a few weeks now and I've been inventing dishes for this kind of vegetable since. I wanted something not so oily so I try to avoid the stir fry kind. 

Here's what I first came up with:

Chicken House in Bacolod

Chicken House is one of the food places we visited the first time we went to Bacolod. We want to see if their chicken inasal is indeed more scrumptious than all the other versions of chicken inasal in the Philippines. 

The first thing we noticed when we got there was how jam-packed the place was. Perhaps because it was lunch time. This was after we had our brunch at Cafe Bob's. We were able to take a seat inside at a little corner and started ordering immediately.

Calea in Bacolod - What's the Fuss All About???

I honestly don't know what the fuss is all about. My hubby and I have tasted better cakes than Calea's, well, at least compared to those that we've tried --- this dense 2-layered chocolate  cake, the Devil's Food Cake and the other one is the coffee-flavored cake or Cappuccino Cake. 

Maybe we ordered the wrong kinds of cake, I dunno. We had the rich (supposedly) chocolate cake as a benchmark for all the other cakes. 

Cafe Bob's in Bacolod

We only had a few days of vacation when we visited Bacolod a few months ago. We will be back there again next month to attend Jayvee Fernandez's wedding. Anyhoo, I'd like to share here the top food places in Bacolod that people keep saying we must try... so try we did with our limited budget and all. 

Going through these photos of Bacolod food places makes me want to go back there again right now so we can order more dishes. Hihihi.

Here's the first Bacolod food stop: Cafe Bob's, located in Lacson St. corner 21st St., Bacolod City, Negros Occidental, Philippines. You may contact them at (+63 34) 434-2409
