Cebu Secret Chows

           Babe for Food is a proud Cebuana and believes that the best way "to know Cebu is to EAT Cebu." 

           I have posted a list of Cebu's Secret Dining Spots from A-Z and I think writing about each of them will always be a work in progress unless my wallet gets filled up along with me each time I eat but alas, that is only wishful thinking. 


        I decided to put up this page for those who want a new dining experience in Cebu,  away from the crowd in the malls. There is no particular focal cuisine; it's a random directory-type list of some interesting places to dine in Cebu that few know about, even the locals themselves. 


         Criteria for qualification in the list are (either/or):



    • no distinct or clear signage of resto name
    • none to minimal marketing 
    • not located in a major mall

        However, this list doesn't necessarily imply that all the establishments listed are the best places to dine in Cebu. 


         Feel free to invite me or tell me about it if you do visit any of the places on the list that I haven't covered yet. Happy eating! :D


This list will be constantly updated as needed. :)
