Finally got to try Pat-Pat's Kansi House! First impression when entering is that it is similar to our go-to soup places in our city ( im not a local) in which it has the vibe of "people deliberately going to the place even though it is out of the way to slurp on their famous Kansi soup" (you get the idea?) the place had a bright white interior , simple yet pleasing. now on to the main dish! First of all the Kansi is a 8.5/10 for me, amongst all the kansi i have tasted this is by far the more superior aside from the one in Maskara inasal they serve good Kansi ( more oily and fatty goodness) too, similar to here but the price point of Pat-Pat's Kansi breaks the indecision! we ordered the Kansi with unod because we were too lazy to order the one with bone marrow, the unod cost 140 pesos while the bone marrow cost 180 pesos. depending on your appetite, one bowl can definitely serve 2 people! The chicken inasal is very good! by far the best and juiciest inasal in the city! you do not even need chicken oil anymore and it is very flavorful. Mang Inasal is a far cry to this chicken trust me, plus you get to have 1 free bowl of kansi soup :) so if you are new, i suggest ordering their chicken inasal and just ask for Kansi soup and you are good to go. 10/10 would...
Read moreAfter attending the anticipated mass at Jaro Cathedral last Saturday evening, we decided to head over to Pat-Pat’s Kansi for dinner. The restaurant is conveniently located near the cathedral, making it an ideal spot to grab a meal after mass, especially if you’re craving Kansi.
We ordered a variety of dishes, including mixed cartilage, dinuguan, pork sisig, and atay. The broth from the mixed cartilage was incredibly rich and flavorful, and the dinuguan had just the right balance of tanginess and depth. Unfortunately, the popular Kansi Lawas was already sold out by the time we arrived. Definitely, we will go back for this! My kid 👦🏻 enjoyed the Pastillas 😋 as he eats the pork sisig. 😀
One advantage of arriving a little earlier than their peak hours was the ease of parking. The parking area is located across the street from the restaurant, so we didn’t have any difficulty finding a spot. However, the dining area was a bit warm since it wasn’t air-conditioned, which made the evening a little uncomfortable. Despite this, the food quality made up for it, and we enjoyed the meal they...
Read moreAfter a quick visit to the Cathedral and a stroll in the park, I was looking for a place to eat, and this was one of the few open ones. I got here at around 4pm, so I pretty much had the place to myself, save for this one other diner.
I opted for the pork barbecue and their kansi, which I believe is their specialty as their name implies. The barbecue was tender and savory, with just the right hint of sweetness to it. The kansi was also really good - it reminded me of the ones I had at Bacolod, the beef was also tender, and the broth was very well seasoned.
The portions here are generous, and everything was reasonably priced. Service was good, and the place had a homey atmosphere to it. The only caveat is that the place isn’t airconditioned, or maybe the a/c just wasn’t turned on at that...
