Bacolod Inasal District
Description
The original chicken inasal zone in Bacolod — the food the city is most associated with across the Philippines. In Bacolod, the provincial capital and the island’s biggest market city, on the northwest coast. Everyday eating rather than destination dining — market-adjacent karinderya, grills and food streets where the local supply chain ends up on a plate.
Tips
Central Market thins out badly after 8am, especially the fish section. Manokan Country is mid-relocation — confirm whether the stalls are still at the SM terminal hub or back at the new building before going. Buy muscovado and tablea at the market, not the malls; the price difference is significant.
Stops
Northern Sugar & Seafood Corridor
How to get there
