BANOKS

We meandered down the street looking for a nice restaurant. Imagine my surprise when we arrived at Banoks Ihaw Ihaw Restaurant, which is one of Davao City's leading restaurant chains. I was quite amazed at the popularity of this place. It was busy, crowded and tables were filled to their capacity. Since we had to wait a long time for a table, we left and went to try their smaller branch which is just across the street.


Banoks by the way is short for Barbecue Manok (chicken). This restaurant has an informal open-air structure with electric fans. However, the hot and stuffy area made me bathe in a shimmer of sweat. Phew!



We tried to order a few dishes but we were told that that it was not available for some unknown reason. So we had to settle for their house specialty - the marinated and barbecued chicken, which I think is another favorite among diners.

We also had sisig and sinigang na baboy (pork in a soured broth) served in traditional palayok (clay pot).

What's good about this eatery, they serve unlimited rice. Overall, the food was fine but the service was a bit slow.

This Banoks branch is near People's Park and surrounded by other busy restaurants. If I'm not mistaken, this eatery has 11 outlets in Davao City.
