What to order
Pick your cut. Paa is the safe order and pechopak the big one. The real manokan move is a paa plus a couple of the small parts: isol, atay, bul-o or baticolon, each ₱100 or less. Pour the sinamak and soy into the little dish, squeeze in calamansi, and eat with your hands.
The one dish that is not chicken is the beef cansi, Bacolod’s sour beef shank soup with the marrow still in the bone, at ₱500 or ₱530. If you came from the Marjo’s Pochero article, this is its Negrense cousin.
Worth knowing before you go
It is a roadside garage of a place, open to the street on one side, with wall fans and a staircase to a second level. Midday is hot in there. At 12:45 on a Saturday every table was full and people were still walking in. Go before noon or late in the afternoon.
