If you're looking for authentic Ilocano dish, this is the place to be--warek warek, igado, lomo lomo, sinanglao, dinengdeng, etc. They set the standard for ilokano cooking.
Served in typical carinderia style, the viands are already cooked and displayed on the counter, so you just point the dishes to order.
The portion is small (but flavorful and delicious) so you might want to order 2 viands per person.
The price is by type of dish: P65/beef P60/pork P40/vegetable P15/ rice
You can request for a cup of sinanglao soup at the end of the line before paying.

Must try are the vegetable dishes. ( I ate here twice in our 7 day Ilocos stay, just because of that dinengdeng). Price? Affordable Serving? Good for one. Ambiance? a room full of people happy...
