The Oriental Spice Gourmet - Gun-ob

As a frequent traveler for food and culture, this restaurant brings Peranakan, Malay and Singaporean cuisine to Cebu in all its unpretentious yet satisfying glory!!! Always a must-try!

The menu as header from this restaurant is old, please see the updated menu we post as photos. After passing this restaurant so often and always no parking space available in the evening, we decided to come for lunch on Sunday. There were just few cars there so we could park. The food is in our opinion authentic as we know during our journey to Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. Furthermore, I lived over 4 years in Singapore as 'expat ' so I guess, I know food from this regions too. We were food lovers, so we went few times a week visiting one restaurant after the other, from hawkers centers to restaurants in hotels. It tasted good so far what we ordered: Mee Goreng, Prawn in coconut sauce, Vietnamese spring rolls. It cost about 1k for two of us. The wife of the owner is a nice person who personally talked to us about what food they are serving and what would be our preference. The husband is a malaysian chef, but british citizen. The restaurant itself is clean and cozy.

Definitely authentic. They have space for parking which is definitely a plus. Prices are okay. The manager takes your order and makes sure you know what you’re doing she basically did the whole “ordering food” for us. Service was fast and accommodating too. They now have a function room advertised on their second floor.

Very accommodating manager. Great place for friendly get togethers. Reasonable prices. One of the most authentic tasting Asian cuisine in Cebu. Must try! PS. Always listen to the owner.

The food was delicious, the service was very good. The waiter is also the owner so if she knows that it's your first time, she will suggest what tastes good, so that you would like to comeback again, and we would like to come back. The price to serving ration is very good.
