Native Filipino Restaurants in Quezon City, Food Trip Recommendations
As always, Tutubi paid for all his meals at these restaurants, no "pay to praise" posts here nor glowing reviews due to freebies or free meals. The list does not include native restaurants that has gone mainstream (too many branches) outside Quezon City.
If you know of other places, frugal food finds, vegetarian food, halal restaurants in Quezon City, or any recommendation, please leave a comment as Tutubi knows there are many others out there still waiting to be sampled:
