Sinuglaw & Heritage Food at Cucina Higala
year-round
CDO's signature dish is sinuglaw — grilled pork belly tossed into citrusy fish kinilaw, soured with wild Mindanao fruits like tabon-tabon — and Cucina Higala on Capistrano St. is the city's pioneer for Northern Mindanao heritage cuisine, set in an old Spanish-style house. Order the sinuglaw and the sizzling binaki (steamed sweet-corn cake from Bukidnon). Open daily, roughly 11am–9pm.
