My last visit to the province surprised me with world-class dining restaurants that offered exciting exotic delicacies. Nueva Vizcaya definitely deserves a stop or even an overnight stay just to try out these exciting Nueva Vizcaya eats.<p></p>

The land abundant with natural resources is also reflected in their native cuisines. From my recent visit, I wasn't surprised to see a few bugs on their table but these are cooked and ready to eat. Not something I would see every day. If one wants to try these dishes, we visited <strong>All Day Exotic</strong>, a resto-bar offering exotic cuisines in their menu every day.<p></p>

This two-story establishment with warm and homey interiors is owned by Chef Jehan Damasco who has competed on international pastry competitions. Established in 2010, Chef Jehan had cooked up a sumptuous menu of local favorites and international flavors that not only Nuvo Vizcayanos rave about but those fortunate visitors enough to have stumbled upon this gem of a resto. We went here twice when we were in Nueva Vizcaya and here's to share some of our favorite dishes.<p></p>
