Wazzup Pilipinas!
Mother’s Day is soon approaching and
already, restaurants all over Manila are scrambling in order to provide mom with
a well-deserved meal with her family on her special day.
While most establishments will offer
your standard, Sunday fare of a respectable three-course meal, served with a
light salad and glass of sparkling white wine, very few restaurants defy
culinary conventions in order to serve mothers everywhere food they would
actually want.
Enter: Locavore! Since its arrival
to the Kapitolyo food scene just a couple years ago, Locavore has become a
stand out in the community through its commitment to using locally grown and
raised food, and most importantly, to its incredible menu that showcases
re-imagined Filipino favorites.
What better way to celebrate
Mother’s Day than treating her with the dishes she loves the most? Let’s take a
look at five great dishes from Locavore that are perfect for Mother’s Day!
Kinilaw Platter – This savory collection of pickled seafood and produce is a great
start to any meal. Sample an assortment includes Kalibo Oysters, Tuna, Tanigue,
and Fresh River Shrimp.
Lechon & Oyster Sisig – Locavore takes this beloved Kapampangan favorite to
new culinary heights. Fresh oysters and lechon are mixed together before being
introduced to a generous coating of chicken liver mayo. Simply sinful!
Luglog – East meets
West in this ingenious interpretation of another classic. Glass noodles and
Bisque made from shrimp, squid, and chicharron turn this merienda staple into a hearty and savory dish.
Sizzling Sinigang – The Sizzling Singang is one of Locavore’s signature dishes and for
reason! It’s another playful and inventive spin on a Filipino staple that
incorporates beef short ribs with a stunning sampaloc gravy that compels an
extra order of rice!
Sugpo con Mayonesa – Another Locavore favorite, this dish it perfect for anyone looking
for an alternative to meat. Jumbo Black Tiger prawn sautéed in aligue, garlic,
butter, and Japanese mayonnaise, this seafood treat is sure to heighten the
senses.
Founded by a group of friends with a
passion for food, Locavore is a unique take on classic Filipino staples. By
using locally produced ingredients, Locavore offers traditional Filipino food
with a playful, yet modern, twist.
Locavore is located in 10 Brixton St. Kapitolyo, Pasig City.
