Chicharon with Kamatis & Bagoong and other much-missed eats at Masferre

Masferre Country Inn and Restaurant has many draws. For the tired of feet, it’s just a few steps from the municipio. For the photography- and culturally-inclined, the dining area is literally a feast for the eyes with Eduardo Masferre’s works on display. For the hungry diner, the restaurant has been a staple among Sagada repeat visitors because the food is predictable — in a good way. It’s rare that either of your Happyfoodies have ventured to Sagada without at least eating a meal here and this most recent visit is no different. The homey interiors of mostly wood material always makes dining a real pleasure.

Sagada’s Misty Lodge and Cafe: Food worth walking kilometers for

Misty Lodge Dam's Chicken Perhaps, by a stroke of serendipity, Happyfoodies found accommodation in the town outskirts some 1.5 kilometers from the sentro.  Meaning yes, we’re away from where most of the eating places are but by luck, very, very close to Misty Lodge and Cafe.  Our host, Derick, of Yabami Lodge recommended it to us as we were looking for somewhere closer to eat apart from Rock Inn’s Bodega Cafe some 350 meters away.  Smoked out from the Panag-apoy rites, we decided to drop by at dinner time as the cafe was on our way home.   So, did we like the food?  Well, we came back a second and third time during our three days in Sagada.  It was that good.

Food tripping in Sagada

Yoghurt House Specialty

Much has been written about Sagada and its natural wonders that attract trekkers, spelunkers and other adventurous spirits. But to the foodie, Sagada is more than that. there’s another side to this so-called Shangri-la of the north, a more flavorful one that will appeal to the adventurous foodie. We traveled over 400 kilometers to food trip here and there’s something about the highlands – its nippy, crisp clean air, peace and quiet, and of course, the awesome scenery – that makes eating so much more enjoyable. It could also be the elevation that takes eating to a new high. Here, we give a sampler of the many food offerings out there.
