During our recent visit to Baguio City, our driver recommended Edsyl's Canteen for lunch, promising a taste of their renowned sinanglaw. Unfortunately, the sinanglaw was unavailable due to the overwhelming breakfast crowd. Undeterred, we opted for their sisig pusit, sinigang na maya maya, and pigar pigar.
The variety of dishes we tried did not disappoint; they were flavorful, well-cooked, and left us craving for more. The sisig pusit offered a delightful blend of textures, while the sinigang na maya maya boasted a tangy broth that perfectly complemented the freshness of the fish. The pigar pigar, a local favorite, was a savory delight that showcased the kitchen's expertise.
Edsyl's Canteen has a simple yet inviting setup reminiscent of a carenderia. Despite the bustling atmosphere, their service was impressively fast, and the staff remained friendly and accommodating. What added to the charm of this place was its pocket-friendly prices, making it an excellent choice for those seeking delicious meals without breaking the bank.

I love the atmosphere too since you're eating...

Can seat at least 20 pax in one long table and they have 3 long tables. Prices are very affordable too. Cleanliness need to be improved. Spoon and fork is lacking at times and condiments are everywhere. Aside from that it's a 5-Star for me for the value...
