Veggie Delight - Iloilo City

Nothing fancy in this diner. Food is super cheap but surprisingly good! I loved their batchoy and burger

On my first trip to Iloilo, I knew I wanted to try what vegan options were around. Although predominantly vegetarian, this place still had a variety of dishes to choose from. Very simple, cheap and tasty. It was a good first place to try.

We arrived at about 6pm, and there were hardly any options left from the buffet. So I guess there are more options during lunch time, and the food would also be fresher.. Had a couple of dishes from the vegan options, and they were okay. Burger was quite nice! There are some soups they prepare freshly, worth asking whether they are vegan. The food is super cheap.

One of the bestsellers is a soup called 'La Paz Batchoy '. Batchoy is famous in the area because it is traditionally made with pork guts, chicken guts, and beef guts (You don 't want to know! Look it up here: [hidden link] . Veggie Delight 's version has absolutely no meat. They only put vegetarian meat substitutes, which may contain gluten. The noodles are made with eggs and other ingredients. They have vegetarian versions of other local Filipino food, such as sisig, valenciana, and lomi. Their fruit shakes are made with cow 's milk, but they will use soy milk if you ask them. They also sell veggie burgers, which don 't taste too bad. Prices are very affordable. Friendly staff.

This charming little spot offers straightforward vegetarian and vegan Filipino dishes, along with some delicious vegan breads. If you're vegan, it's a good idea to confirm with the staff about which items contain dairy or fish sauce. We enjoyed the Batchoy (without fish sauce), sukiyaki, sisig, and pancit.
