Trattoria Altrove: Best pizza in town!
Vulkan1 Says: This restaurant is located along the main road. You can't miss it, as you see the brick oven facing the street. You have to leave your slippers at the entrance and enter barefoot. The floor is made of dark hardwood as are the walls. The ceiling is lighter and high with 2...
Balay Tubay: Huge servings for breakfast

The New Zone & The Boom: Disco in El Nido? Hell yeah!
Fakfak Says: You certainly didn't come here to party, but if you're tired of sitting at the beach with Bob Marley and tiki lights you can try the "Boom Disco House" or the "New Zone Disco And Karaoke Bar (Formerly Hardrocks)". Both are what I'd call a Filipino countryside disco, the...
