Taste The Sizzling Binaki of Cagayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental

White water rafting is not the only thing you should not miss during your visit to Cagayan de Oro. Don't miss out without tasting one of CDO's pride—the Sizzling Binaki with caramel sauce.

There are many foods that our country can be proud of. I think all the provinces in our country have their own specialty food that can be served to tourists. Just like this Sizzling Binaki with caramel sauce that I tasted for the first time. For those asking, Sizzling Binaki is served by Cucina Higala.

Cucina Higala

The restaurant's name evokes Filipino tradition and culture. “Cucina” is Spanish for the kitchen while “Higala” is Visayan for friends as Cagayan de Oro is dubbed as the “City of Golden Friendship.” It is owned and managed by a corporation called the TFC Group. Besides the sizzling binaki with caramel sauce, the restaurant also serves other foods such as kinilaw with dilis, humba, kare-kare, callos, fresh lumpia, tuna panga flakes salad, and many more to mention.
