We feasted at the KCC mall with these array of dishes. They have this bowl of bulalo soup with the option of having the broth only. We had this sweet beef, sweet and sour Malasugue fish, Beef and Sweet corn, and halo-halo. *** *** *** *** *** *** Halo-halo, a treat to the weary travelers! *** ***

Bahay ni Tuding is homey and has an in-house restaurant  which is a good thing during rainy or lazy days during a vacation.  Please check out how the hometel fared during our November 2014 vacation  in my foot and fire blog  here. Bulalo. *** Guayabano spread. *** *** Complimentary Home-made yogurt. *** *** *** *** Calamansi and lemongrass juice is a hit for us! ***

Bahay ni Tuding is a pleasant surprise. It is located in the bustling center of Davao City, it being a walking distance to the city hall and the sanggunian panlungsod as well as the San Pedro Cathedral. It has a facebook account here. 160 San Pedro Street Davao City, 8000, Philippines Telephone : +6382-295-2487 Mobile : +63947-361-3544 Facebook: Bahay ni Tuding email: reservations@bahaynituding.com *** Not exactly that the place is artistically impressive, I just like the fact that they sporadically  added some artworks on their walls. *** and the ceiling. *** A theme of their own! *** This is somewhat creepy but this woman is the namesake of the hometel. *** Here she is once more! *** a colorful artwork at the loby. *** *** the poinsettia centerpiece of the table at the dining hall. *** Obviously, christmas is approaching at the time we were there... *** ...

As I can recall pochero here in Western Visayas is a thick soup with some meat cooked with white beans, bananas and camote or potatoes and cabbage. But this Pochero de Cebu is actually a bulalo with sweet corn and some green vegetables such as string beans and pechay. I am not sure whether the name really represents its origin but perhaps it really came from Cebu as Cebuanos serve milled corn in lieu of rice. Here is the steamy hot bowl of Pochero de Cebu....
