Extra Caldo Please!

Iloilo… the city of warm, friendly people… but most of all… the home of the famous BATCHOY!
If you’re wondering what it’s like… it a hot noodle soup with pork meat and liver, strips of beef, and ground chicharon (crispy pork skin ), and lots of toasted garlic… such a delish dish!
here's what a batchoy looks like

So when you find yourself in Iloilo… after checking out their parks and museums… you’ll surely be hungry… go find their most famous Ted’s Old-Timer La Paz Batchoy restaurant… and indulge yourself with their deliciously satisfying  bowl of steaming hot extra special batchoy combined with puto… the next thing they’ll be hearing from you are your burps! Oh, and don’t forget to tell them “Extra caldo please!” and they’ll gladly fill your bowl with unlimited supply of hot soup!
 Fortunately for those who are stuck in the city, you can still enjoy that authentic Ilongo specialty even without going to Iloilo, there are now many branches of Ted's Old-Timer La Paz Batchoy restaurants here in the metro!
