Our food adventure brought us to Aidaโs Chicken Inasal, a legendary Bacolod-born restaurant known for its smoky, charcoal-grilled chicken and proudly featured in the Michelin Guide as a Michelin Selected restaurant!
For those wondering, ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
means the restaurant has been inspected and recognized by Michelin as a noteworthy place to eat. It serves as an entry-level recommendation in the guide and is part of the pool from which restaurants may eventually earn distinctions such as a Bib Gourmand or Michelin Star.
Since it was the closest restaurant to our hotel, we decided to give it a try. We arrived at around 3:30 PM, got a waiting-list number, and were seated at around 4:00 PM. The food took about an hour to arrive but was it worth the wait?
๐ Absolutely YES! ๐
The Chicken Pecho Inasal was our favorite! It was perfectly seasoned, smoky, juicy, and well-cooked. Honestly, there was no need for additional condiments, the flavor already spoke for itself. We also enjoyed the Kare-Kare, which came in generous servings and had a rich, flavorful taste.
And of course, great food deserves great service, and we were happy with the attentive and friendly service we received. ๐
