As part of the Davao Bloggers’ Food Trip, we had a sumptuous and very satisfying free lunch at Belly’s Grill today. In attendance were Ria, Tiara, Winston, Maita, Bbboy, Andrew, and Gwing. Belly’s Grill became known for their tasty Grilled Scallops which I got to taste before. Unfortunately, there were no scallops today due to the bad weather. I know this because Celine, the owner, explained it to us. The owners who were so nice (but Celine’s husband was kinda shy), allowed us to order anything on the menu.
So for appetizers / viands we ordered their Special Kinilaw, Sisig, and Calamares. The Kinilaw was not “overcooked.” It had the right combination of vinegar, spices, fish, and pork. The sisig was good, not too spicy, and not too salty either, it was just right. Although Andrew thought it might have some liver, I didn’t taste any of it. The calamares also tasted great even when I didn’t dip it in the mayo-ketchup dipping sauce.
