Pampanga Food Trip 2024: Famous Restaurants and Their Best-sellers

Pampanga is known as the Culinary Capital of the Philippines for all the mouthwatering reasons. A Pampanga food trip is all you need to taste the province’s best dishes.

Only a two-hour ride from Metro Manila, go up north and do what every foodie must do: E-A-T.

Restaurants to include on your Pampanga food trip: Where to eat, what to order

Where to eat in Pampanga, you may ask. Below is a list of must-try restaurants and dishes. These are the places where you can get to taste how authentic the meals are. Also included are the best sellers for each restaurant.

1. Everybody’s Café

Best-seller: morcon.

Everybody’s Café is an exotic restaurant. So expect to see betute (fried stuffed frog), kamaru (fried crickets), and tapang kalabaw (cured carabao meat) on the menu. These items sold out fast, so be there as early as possible if you want to try them.

If your palate is not ready, the restaurant also serves Kapampangan comfort food such as mami, sinigang na sugpo, embutido, and tsokolate (chocolate batirol), which take at least three hours to prepare. But morcon, the house specialty, remains to be Everybody’s Café’s best-seller.

There is a mini shop inside the restaurant. They sell the most delectable sylvannas in Pampanga.

There are two Everybody’s Café branches; one in  Nepo Mart in Angeles and MacArthur Highway in Del Pilar, San Fernando City. Choose the second one because it is the actual ancestral house that was turned into a restaurant.

2. Aling Lucing’s Sisig

Best-seller: sisig.

Sisig is originally from Pampanga. Aling Lucing’s Sisig claims that it’s the first to offer the delicacy made from pig’s head meat (cheeks and ears) and other parts that were considered scrap then. Today, sisig is known as a ubiquitous beer match and is almost always present in every Filipino drinking session. Luciana Cunanan, or simply Aling Lucing, the Sisig Queen, introduced the dish in the 1970s. Incidentally, Aling Lucing claims to serve the best sisig in Pampanga.

The streetside eatery also offers sizzling pusit (squid) on top of the best-seller, sisig. There are many options to choose from a la turo-turo style, including fish, pork, chicken, chicharon bulaklak (ruffled fat crackling), and tokwa’t baboy (fried tofu and steamed pork).

Aling Lucing’s Sisig is located in Glaciano Valdez St., Angeles City.

3. Mila’s Tokwa’t Baboy

Best-sellers: tokwa’t baboy and sizzling sisig.

Another sisig joint in the province that also claims the origin of this indulgent delicacy is Mila’s Tokwa’t Baboy. Their version is on the crispy side, although the same ingredients were used in preparing it. The carinderia began operation in 1989.

Its best-seller other than sizzling sisig is tokwa’t baboy served with its special sauce made from soy sauce, celery, and tomatoes. You have never tasted something like this before for sure.

Mila’s Tokwa’t Baboy is a few blocks away from Aling Lucing’s Sisig. It is located in San Andres St.

4. Café Fleur

Best-sellers: crispy shrimp okoy (appetizer) and crispy pork belly, and macadamia kare-kare (main course).

The famous Chef Sau del Rosario is behind the homey Café Fleur. The restaurant serves classic Filipino dishes but with a French twist. Of course, Kapampangan dishes like pako (fern) salad, buro (fermented rice), and fried hito (catfish) are a staple of its menu.

Café Fleur is also known for unique dishes such as crispy shrimp okoy (shrimp cake) and crispy pork belly, and macadamia kare-kare (stew in peanut sauce)–its appetizer and main course best-sellers, salted egg bibingka (cassava) cheesecake, lamb caldereta with kesong puti (cheese), and pandan (screwpine) sansrival.

The restaurant is located in Miranda St. Brgy. Sto. Rosario, Angeles City.

5. Historic Camalig

Best-seller: armando’s pizza: ang pambansang pizza.

From its name, Historic Camalig used to be the Nepomuceno family’s house and rice barn. The restaurant offers unique pizza flavors, with which the owners dubbed the “pambansang pizza” (national pizza). Armando’s Pizza: Ang Pambansang Pizza is actually Historic Camalig’s best-seller.

Speaking of which, Historic Camalig serves longganisa (sausage) and salted egg-flavored pizzas. Other best-sellers include tinapa (smoked fish), tuyo (dried fish), and chicken adobo pizzas.

Cisan’s, another restaurant in Pampanga that serves Japanese-Thai-Vietnamese dishes, is also owned by the Nepomuceno clan.

Historic Camalig is located a few meters away from Café Fleur. It is specifically located in Camalig Square, Dalan Sto. Rosario, Angeles.

6. The Original Razon’s

Best-sellers: halo-halo and pancit palabok.

From its humble beginnings as a refreshment parlor, The Original Razon’s became a household name thanks to its halo-halo and pancit palabok, both of the diner’s best-sellers. The owners even included the tagline “The Halo-Halo & Palabok that Made Guagua Famous.”

Razon’s opened in 1972, serving what we now call the minimalist halo-halo. Their version has only four ingredients. The quaint, family-friendly restaurant also has a mini shop inside selling chicharon (crackling), uraro (arrowroot), bottled sardines, and taba ng talangka (crab fat).

Razon’s is located along the MacArthur Highway in Mabalacat, Pampanga.

7. Apag Marangle

Best-sellers: adobong camaru, sizzling balut, and relyenong betute.

Apag Marangle, like Everybody’s Café, serves exotic dishes. What makes the experience more unique is the menu that resembles a banana leaf and the table set inside connecting nipa huts partially submerged in the water.

The menu items are written in Kapampangan but also include the English translation of each. Their best-sellers are adobong camaru (mole crickets in vinegar and soy sauce stew), sizzling balut, and relyenong betute (stuffed frog).

It also offers ningnang (grilled) and pulutan, including tokwa’t liempo (fried tofu and steamed pork belly), sizzling balut, chili garlic camaro, and tugak king bawang ampong lara (chili garlic frog).

The rustic place is huge, with a small pond where the catfish are contained, a play area, a mini zoo with birds and monitor lizards, and a selfie spot. The place is surrounded by greens, so you’ll have a relaxing yet delicious meal.

8. 1956 Downtown Café

Best-sellers: trianggulo, sinigang na lechon, crispy hito and halo-halo.

1956 Downtown Café is owned by another renowned Kapampangan chef, Chef Claude Tayag of the Bale Dutung fame. The restaurant was established to commemorate his birth year.

The retro-styled diner serves unique dishes from crispy aromatic spring duck and lechon taco to halo-halo with crema de pastillas. Halo-halo is one of its best-sellers along triangulo (fried samosas filled with tinapa, pili nuts, and spinach), sinigang na lechon (roasted pig in sour stew), and crispy hito (catfish).

Eating here will make you feel nostalgic with all the memorabilia despite being a relatively small diner.

9. Nathaniel’s Bakeshop

Best-seller: buko pandan salad.

When Nathaniel’s opened in 1994, it mostly offered frozen dessert products such as juices, fruit salad, sylvannas, and its best-seller buko pandan salad. The last one sells out so fast the crew has to replenish the stock on the fridge several times daily.

Now, the selection widens to include chicharon, bucheron (chicken gizzard crackling), cashew-flavored barquillos (crispy waffles), puto pao (steamed buns), and other local delicacies. A bigger portion of the main branch, where the plant is located at the back, is converted into a restaurant.

No one can mistake Nathaniel’s stores or products because of its mint green branding. The main branch is located in

10. Kusinang Matua ni Atching Lillian

Best-seller: san nicolas cookies.

Lillian Borromeo is famous for her San Nicolas cookies, which is also the Kusina’s best-seller. The kitchen is on the first floor of her house. She hosts cooking demos here. She lives on the second floor. If she’s there, Atching Lillian welcomes an impromptu interview.

Her place is like a mini museum with all her family’s artifacts when cooking. There are old ovens, stone mills, wooden mortar and pestle, sewing machines turned into a table, and hundreds of biscuit molds passed from generation to generation.

Kusinang Matua ni Atching Lillian is not actually a full-blown restaurant, but including it in the list is a must too.

11. Apag Marangle

Best-seller: betute (deep-fried frog), camaruginisa, sizzling balut, tinolang tugak, sale manuk.

Pampanga Food and Culture Trip – Guagua, Bacolor and San Fernando

This is the second and last portion of our Pampanga Day Trip. To see the first serving, kindly click here .

Halo-halo and Murals in Guagua

With our stomachs now very full, we proceeded to Guagua to see the  Betis Church . It took us quite a while to get there since a lot of roads were being constructed at that time. From the outside, you wouldn’t expect too much from this church, but going inside was a different story. A guard stopped us and reminded us to pray, not just to take photos inside. Once you’ve entered, you’d be amazed by the murals covering the ceiling of the church. It was really marvelous! (I wish this isn’t the closest I can get to be awed by the murals in the Sistine Chapel.)

After that, we decided to drop by Guagua church as well, since we’re already in the area. Characterized by its huge white dome, the Guagua church appeared to me as more beautiful outside than inside. The sad thing is that the entrance to the church is hardly prominent, and various structures surround it and you cannot fully appreciate its grandeur.

Razon’s Halo-halo in Guagua

While we were in the town of Guagua, we surely didn’t miss  Razon’s halo-halo . This Filipino snack, usually made of more than a dozen ingredients, was made special by the Razons by only using three – leche flan, macapuno, and minatamis na saging (sweetened bananas). I’ve tried it in Manila, but it was crappy. In Pampanga, it was actually very, very good. The ingredients were generous and I was impressed with the milkiness of the snack (versus the watery taste as they serve in the malls). It was indeed a special snack…and I wish they can replicate the flavor in their branches in Manila.

Ashes in Bacolor

Our last stop for a church was in  Bacolor , where a third or half of the church structure was buried under the ashes when Mt. Pinatubo erupted in the early 90’s. This was the church where the series May Bukas Pa was filmed. I didn’t dare go inside as there were no lights, and my friend Mimie was spooked when she tried entering. At the back of the church was where a cemetery once stood. Now, a list of names of the dead buried here is all that reminds us of them. No more tombs, except for the multilevel ones.

Bacolor Cemetery buried in ashes

Exotic Food in San Fernando

Finally, we headed to San Fernando City in anticipation of the Giant Lantern Festival. Before proceeding to the festival grounds, we went to have dinner in none other than  Everbody’s Cafe . Here, we tried their stuffed frog,  buro  (fermented rice),  ensaladang pako  (fern salad) and  camaro  (crickets). Next thing we knew, we were already at the grounds of the annual  Ligligan Parul .

A bittersweet ending

This ended our food and cultural trip in Pampanga. I thought it was already a very long day, until we reached the bus terminal in San Fernando. There were no buses, and the one that arrived after 15 minutes was already full! We either had to wait for the next bus, which would arrive on the next hour, or we had to stand inside the bus on our way to Manila. We chose the latter since we all wanted to get home already. Upon reaching my destined stop, just as I was dialing my brother’s number, my cellphone was snatched. Talk about travel misfortunes!

It was an unfortunate way to end an otherwise beautiful day. Oh well, I’m charging that to experience. Anyway, it’s about time for me to change my cheap phone. Haha!

Let’s keep traveling! Have a fun week ahead 🙂
