Chicken Deli

Fellow readers, please bear with me since I always reach my bandwidth limit every mid of the month due to the increase of visitors to which I cannot upload new pictures and post my new food adventure.  Anyway, here is something that I long to post about my chicken topics.  It is one chicken house that I always go to everytime I am in Bacolod City and it is Chicken Deli.  When I am in Bacolod, ordering for a single piece of chicken is not enough. Usually, we order chicken parts and grill them all together. Why? Maybe that is the trend or maybe I am just want to experience what Bacolod has to offer when it comes to this gastronomic delight. Chicken Deli is there during my first time in Bacolod way back 2004.  The reason why we go back is the taste. They grill very well and the price is about right to your pocket. Of course, it will not be complete if you will not use the famous vinegar “Sinamak” that the place is famous for.  

 During my last visit, they made their inasal even special with the introduction of their amargoso (bitter melon) salad.  It is not that bitter and it blended very well with their inasal. It was indeed an enjoyable and nostalgic chicken experience.

Where to Find

The chicken Inasal of Chicken Deli can be found along Lacson st. downtown Bacolod City, Negros Occidental. It is very near the famous L’Fisher hotel. When in Bacolod never ever miss the chance to eat at Chicken Deli. It is what the famous  Bacolod Chicken Inasal is all about.

Inasal at Manukan Country

You cannot say that you have been to Bacolod if you haven’t experience eating at Manukan country. It is a place near SM Bacolod that is full of restaurants service Chicken Inasal. You can have different parts from chicken legs (pa-a), chicken breast (pitcho), chicken tail (isol) , chicken wings (pakpak) and many other chicken parts that are edible. You can also choose if you want the commercial chicken or the native one. Both are great but the native chicken is much tastier.   

What is the signature of Bacolod chicken? They have a chicken oil that you partner with your rice. You can also add it to your prepared concoction of calamansi, soy and sili as you supplemental condiment.

After eating, the best way to end your dinner is to have talaba(oysters) with beer. Yes my fellow foodies, that experience in eating chicken is what I like at Manukan Country. I would like to acknowledge Nicole’s Chicken Inasal for this wonderful chicken inasal, tasty talaba and a couple of ice cold beer.

If you are planning to go to Bacolod always put this in your itinerary to go to Manukan Country and experience what eating inasal is all about.

Chicken Inasal at Kiosko

Every time I go to Maasin , Southern Leyte, I always pass to this place that serves a very good chicken inasal. It is one of the food houses that serve one of the best chicken inasal that I have tasted. The way they marinated the chicken and their roasting technique resulted to a very delectable chicken barbeque. Every bite is really a total satisfaction.

For this we had it with Puso ( hanging rice) to make my food trip even great.

This is one place that you can relax and eat above a running water coming from a spring.

The way you can clean your hands is trough their batalan ( water basin). 

Where to Find

Chicken Inasal of Kiosko can be found along the national highway going at Matalum, Southern Leyte.  It is the highway going to Maasin.  It is a known resto at the place because of their unique setting and very good chicken barbeque. Everytime I go to Kiosko, they never failed my appetite for good food and superior customer service.  Kudos to Kiosko!!!

Penong’s Inasal and Barbeque

Before I went to Davao, I was informed to pass by Penong’s Barbeque and Seafood Grill.  It is something you should not miss. The advice to me was true. This is a restaurant that has a delicious food, fast service and unlimited rice. Yes my friends, unlimited rice.  They make sure that you will not run out of rice while eating your favorite Inasal or barbeque.  Their inasal and barbeque are very delicious.  That is the reason why people are willing to wait to be seated while people are still eating.   They even offer free soup.  Guess what about the price, it is like having a fruit drink available in the malls here in Metro Manila.  Very inexpensive and very delicious!!!  Their concept is nice; all of the waiters are skin-headed (except for waitresses) and wears a festive/batik shirt.  They serve fast, always on the look for the need of their customers and make sure everything is all set for the people who come in.  

Where to Find

Penongs barbeque and seafood grill is located along Illuste st. in the heart of Davao city.  I have been eating Inasal from different location in the country and what I can say is that Penong’s has one of the best concept, best food and best service.  When you go to Davao, I hope you will find time to drop by Illuste st. to have this one of a kind delectable experience.  This is surely one food trip that I will have again when I go back to Davao.   

Chicken Inasal by Matias Barbeque

When you drive along AS Fortuna at Mandaue City, You will be amaze that there is this barbeque house that is full of people. Sometimes, you have to wait for your turn at the parking and at the grill point to taste their famous Chichen Inasal.  It is the Inasal and barbeque of Matias Barbeque.  The place is always full house during lunch and dinner. There reason, their chicken inasal and barbeque is very delicious. If you are going to observe their restaurant closely, you will notice that it is the frontage of their house.  The barbeque and Inasal are the reason why the frontage was converted into a dinning place. 

Where to find

When in Mandaue city, Cebu, don’t miss this opportunity to drop by Matias Barbeque.  The signage is very small, but you will notice that it is full of people.  The location is along AS Fortuna near H.
