BBQ Night

Larsian Cebu



It has always been said that when you're in Cebu, one of the things you can't miss is enjoying a barbecue feast at the Philippine's BBQ Capital and that is Larsian Fuente Cebu. This establishment has grown to be one of the most sought after Cebu experiences. This is indeed an accomplishment coming from its humble beginnings before when in the 1980s this array of barbecue food was just found on one single street.



It is purely amazing how you see the growth of this culture and establishment. Gone are the days where you sit on a stool in a humid environment while enjoying your favorite dish. Now it is a full blown hub of different stalls created to allow the convenience for a pure enjoyable dining experience.

Even until this very moment, the taste and the secret sauces that these food vendors created stayed the same. Coming from someone who has grown up here, I can really say that the taste never changed. It just elevated to new varieties of meat to barbecue, and offer more food like that that awesome Filipino beef soup called "pochero".




Have a pick of your favorite pork, chicken or any seafoods that Cebu is known for, then cooked in that perfect grilled mechanism only these vendors know how. Then with all that, you put the secret sauce and the best hanging rice in town and you get a foodgasm like no other. The best part is?

It won't break the bank.

So if you happen to drop by at the Queen City of the South, don't forget to enjoy a meal at Larsians Cebu.

The package that you would also get comes with a breakfast buffet that is somewhat ordinary compared to the rest of the hotel I have been with. But if ever you do get the chance to try their bread pudding, I suggest you put it on your plate. I must say that was the highlight of the entire breakfast menu so don't miss it.

The future will always be there, but to have a pause and create a reset button will not hurt you. A small price to pay for the sanity of your peaceful heart.
