Entering the establishment Kainan sa Dalampasigan is almost like stepping inside a secret garden straight out of the story books. With rosal, ilang-ilang and sampaguita abound, one could easily imagine being a character in a fairytale. Owned by Normita Limjoco-Lucas, affectionately known as Tita Baby, and the brainchild of her mother Teodora (Lola Doray) Limjoco, the place has thrived from its humble beginnings. Previously a court for the sport pelota (a ball game played in a walled court with basket-like rackets attached to the hand) and a watering hole for thirsty players, the place has evolved throughout the years and became what it is now today: a haven away from the city, serving delicious Filipino cuisine and seafood. With its breathtaking interiors and equally satisfying offering for the stomach, the place has been a favorite to food writers. Kainan sa Dalampasigan has been featured in many magazines such as Sense & Style and People Asia.
