Sarsa Kitchen + Bar


A contemporary touch on Filipino + Negrense food is what Sarsa brings to the table. If mom wants a laid-back but filling dining experience, let her choose through the restaurant’s spread of comfort food. Think the best of Bacolod presented in a beautifully lit restaurant. What’s not to love? This will surely make mom’s tummy (and eyes) happy

Cafe Mary Grace

Café Mary Grace is the kind of restaurant you can’t help but come back to. Homey and sentimental, it extends the goodness of home cooked meals to a restaurant setting. The selection of savory dishes and baked goods (Ensaymada and Cheese Rolls, please!) is a treat if your mom is a foodie with a sweet tooth.

 

Your favorite Ensaymadas, Cheese Rolls and Brownies make for great additions to dessert buffets! Truly, baked goods that are for your special days as much as they are for your every days ☺️ . Photo by: @gabbycantero #cafeMARYGRACE #GOODNESSofHOME #HAPPINESSisHANDMADE #MARYGRACECelebrations

Tim Ho Wan

Affordable and insanely delicious, this Michelin-starred restaurant is worth lining up for. Treat mom to baked pork buns and the best dimsum from Hong Kong. Whatever protein you want in your dimsum, it’s served clean and fresh at Tim Ho Wan. Yup, down to the last morsel.

Pound by Todd English

If you are a mother-daughter duo of comfort food fanatics, you should try Pound’s selection of burgers. On top of that, onion blossoms, poutines, and sliders pepper the menu. Don’t be intimidated with the posh interiors (We say yes to marble tables!). Pound is the luxe choice both in taste and setting, because moms deserve only the best.

 

@whattoeatph tackles our big and beefy backyard burger! Thanks for visiting! ・・・ Love or Hate? Is it too obvious that we really love burgers? Especially, if it's this good. The Backyard Cheeseburger with double patties of @pound_ph. Made from house ground beef, cheddar cheese, iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and onions. Oh wow, now we're drooling again.
