Kinda like ceviche

Moalboal isn’t famous for its food. Top class diving, such as its famed ‘Sardine Storm’, it has. Authentic Filipino food, it has, but hard to uncover. If you are struggling to find genuine local fare, then I’d suggest Lantaw restaurant near Panagsama beach.


Two notable dishes here. First, kinilaw – a Filipino classic. The easiest way for me to describe it would be that it is like a creamy ceviche, with a strong focus on citrus and chilli kick. Watch out for the bird’s eye chillis hiding within. Delicious nonetheless.


And then sizzling shrimp. This dish wasn’t about the shrimp. They were quite small and own their own nothing to write home about. But that sauce, nutty and buttery, is really addictive. I wanted to order another portion.

Price:  ~400 PHP per person (including non alcoholic drinks)
Address: Lantaw Restaurant, Panagsama Beach, 6032 Moalboal
Opening hours: Mon – Thurs 10am – 10pm, Fri – Sun: 10am – 11.30pm
