  • (CLOSED) Sacapaño Restaurant in Boracay: Where International Flavors Awaits
  • Sacapaño Restaurant, formerly known as PauPatri, is one of the secret spots in Boracay.

    The restaurant is “secret” as it is hidden like a treasure beside Boracay Summer Palace and is now taking the name of its owners, Jun and Maricar Sacapaño.

    Sacapaño Restaurant welcomes you to a unique dining experience in Boracay.

    Meanwhile, this restaurant draws its customers in with its mysterious native vibe, brought about by its wooden architecture and rustic design. Before entering the restaurant, diners are required to to leave their footwear outside and wear disposable slippers.

    Nothing to worry about. These slippers are disposable, and you may use them as you do in your own home!

    Inside, you may find a sophisticated dining setting amidst long tables, good for group diners.

    From here, you will walk your way to their main dining place where you may also sit comfortably in their cabanas with throw pillows and cushions on the floor.

    Stylish cabanas are waiting for you inside.

    The restaurant lets you get comfortable too by letting you sit on the floor!

    Sacapaño Restaurant offers international cuisines such as Chinese, Russian, and other European dishes.

    One of their best-sellers includes the Rösti, made of shredded potatoes, seasoned lightly before it is served with a fried egg on top. This, according to Ms. Lorna Leung, General Manager of the restaurant, is a favorite among Jews and Russian diners.

    Garlic Prawns is also a must-try and a best-seller for Chinese cuisine. It is made with the freshest prawns and is cooked perfectly so as to be tender. Even without sauce, the prawn meat is zesty and has that sea tang stamped into it.

    For local favorites and another prawn dish, the Ginataang Prawns is cooked with coconut milk, locally known as the “gata.” This dish is made even more appetizing with the fresh, warm gata, over hearty prawns, native stringed beans, and squash.

    They also have Bulalo, a rich soup with beef and marrow to add to its flavors. A cob of corn is also incorporated to make the broth slightly sweeter and greens to complete the hearty ensemble.

    Also, one of the things that make Sacapaño Restaurant special is the performances of Boracay’s Hallelujah Tribe from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. every Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays!

    Palm Grill in Quezon City: Discover the Bold Flavors of Zambasulta Cuisine
    Palm Grill in Quezon City is a one-of-a-kind dining destination that brings the authentic cuisine of South of Mindanao to Luzon. Established in 2017, Palm Grill proudly serves the rich flavors, vibrant culture, and storied history of the Zambasulta region—Zamboanga, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi—offering diners a rare opportunity to explore Southern Mindanaon dishes without leaving Metro Manila. Known as the only authentic Southern Mindanaon restaurant in Luzon, Palm Grill goes beyond simply serving food. It showcases culinary traditions deeply rooted in Tausug and Zamboangueño heritage, highlighting ingredients and cooking techniques that are not commonly found in mainstream Filipino restaurants. A must-try for first-time diners is the Dulang (Php 1,119)—a specialty tray traditionally served during royal banquets. This curated sampler features a variety of Palm Grill’s signature dishes, making it the perfect introduction to the bold and layered flavors of Zambasulta cuisine. Presented generously and meant for sharing, it reflects the communal spirit of Southern dining. Another standout is the Tiyula Itum (Php 560), a striking black beef soup from the Tausug community. Cooked with lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, garlic, onions, and pepper, its distinctive dark color comes from burnt coconut meat, which imparts a deep, smoky richness. Often described as “Bulalo 2.0,” it offers a comforting yet complex flavor profile that surprises and delights. For something hearty and satisfying, the Beef Satti (Php 300) delivers skewered beef served with a flavorful sauce that perfectly balances sweet, savory, and spicy notes. It’s a beloved Southern staple that captures the bold personality of Mindanao’s cuisine. Through its thoughtfully prepared dishes and dedication to authenticity, Palm Grill continues to champion the culinary identity of Zambasulta. For diners in Quezon City seeking flavors beyond the usual Filipino fare, Palm Grill offers an immersive experience—where history, culture, and cuisine come together in every bite.
