Where to eat in Pangasinan: Hardin ng Paraiso

If you're visiting Manaoag, Pangasinan and are in the lookout for a nearby place to eat, try Hardin ng Paraiso Grill and Restaurant.  It's about 5 to 10 minutes' ride from Our Lady of Manaoag Church.

You can opt to eat at its main dining hall -

 

Or in individual huts like this -

Its menu is Filipino food and here are some of the food items we tried:

 

Bangus balls wrapped in pechay leaves.

Pinakbet na Ilocano. Super yum!

Sinigang na Malaga (malaga is a kind of fish).

Pork and Tuna Sisig. The waiter said this is one of their bestsellers and yes, it's good. :)  It's mayonnaise-based though so FYI, just in case you don't eat mayo.

And if you're going to use the restroom, check out the green cage beside the ladies' CR.  There's a big, fat sawa (python)!

Btw, it's called Hardin ng Paraiso (Garden of Paradise) because somewhere in the grounds are Adan and Eba (Adam and Eve). :)

Hardin ng Paraiso Grill and Restaurant is located at Barangay Lelemaan, Manaoag, Pangasinan. It's on your left if you're coming from the Manaoag Church.
