Touring the walled city of Intramuros isn't complete without Filipino food. Though Barbara's is the famous choice, we opted to swerve to White Knight Hotel's Coco Bango Cafe.

The interior was a bit posh but not so grand. It was relaxing and pleasant enough for guests to experience the Filipino hospitality. The table setting, though not patterned after a 7-course meal, is a leveled-up from the usual dine. In general, a thumbs up resto to welcome our Taiwanese students.

Since we are a group, we opted for Set Meal B at Php 2,700 good for 6 persons with the ff inclusions:
- Egg Drop Soup
- Chicken Adobo
- Kare-kare
- Sweet and Sour Fish Fillet
- Pancit Canton
- Rice
- Dessert (of different fruits)
- Iced tea

| Not part of the set meal, additional salad which was good |
Apart from this, added Lechon Kawali at Php 312, Beef ala Bulalo at Php 305 and a salad.
In a nutshell, though not fantabulous, their offerings tasted fine. What I liked most was their sweet and sour pork, pancit canton and their salad. But the kare-kare and the bulalo weren't that special.
It's good to note, though that the serving is acceptable. However, we can't really say to our visitors: "hey, dine here! You'll taste the best of the Philippines here"!
Anyhow, shots of the menu here:
