Set up in the ancestral home of the owner, Purple Yam looks more of a home. The place can seat around 20 people, and can also accommodate 10 to 12 persons in their private function area. The place is decorated with traditional Filipino decors for its interior. It has a nice casual atmosphere and the place has an air-conditioning system for a more comfortable dining.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13460\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/07\/Purple-Yam-4_web-waternarked.jpg\" alt=\"Purple Yam (4)_web-waternarked\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>LINE CAUGHT TUNA TAIL, bought from fishermen that do single-hook fishing which does not harm the environment<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13461\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/07\/Purple-Yam-5_web-watermarked.jpg\" alt=\"Purple Yam (5)_web-watermarked\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/07\/Purple-Yam-5_web-watermarked.jpg 700w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/07\/Purple-Yam-5_web-watermarked-290x194.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>SWEETS, Of course, who wouldn\u2019t want halo-halo and homemade ice cream to end the meal?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">When it comes to food, they don\u2019t just serve ordinary local food.
