The Backyard, in chapters

An evening told in four parts.

I

The Catch

Tangigue, lapu-lapu, maya-maya and tuna belly, sold by the gram and cooked the way you call it — grilled, steamed, sinigang, sizzling, or raw as kinilaw.

II

The Fire

Charcoal that has been doing this since 2018. Boneless bangus, tuna panga and pork, painted with smoke until the edges catch.

III

The Sizzle

Iron plates that arrive louder than the table. Gambas, sisig and mixed seafood, still singing when they land.

IV

The Last Pour

Mojito and margarita by the tower, fresh buko juice by the pitcher, and a mango shake for whoever is driving.

※ Signatures of the house

Three plates that do the heavy lifting.
