New Chefoo Restaurant

Contradicting its name, this place is no longer new since it has been operating for more than 70 years now. What is their specialty? Chinese food almost alike with that from the Binondo eateries. Aside from menudencia, ho to tay, and their fried chicken, they are also known for their pansete, pancit canton’s more sauce-laden version.

Pat & Sam

No Cavite trip is complete without buying a box of Bibingka Samala. Pat & Sam’s decades-old establishment is formerly known as “Samala Rice Cakes.” Their famous sweet product leaves smoky aftertaste after being cooked over a wood fire.

This merienda made of glutinous rice, coconut milk, and sugar has two flavors: the traditional malagkit and the crunchier pinipig.

Sadly, the once booming industry is now a dying business in Cavite. Nanay Marissa, who acquired the foundry from her husband’s ancestors, showed us the art of blacksmithing and the traditional way of making such crafted weapons. These blacksmiths were able to support their children in their studies by this craft.
