"Bangus at Itlog" - Start a tough day with your surf board by eating the right food. This super breakfast meal comes with two sunnyside up eggs and a generous share of fried bangus.

And as if it's not enough, the serving also comes with a few slices of tapa! Now, you're more than ready to conquer the waves.Pulpog - Below P150
Yes, this recipe may sound very unfamiliar to most. Pulpog is an authentic Ilocano dish. It's the locals' own version of "sisig" - only that it's not merely made of "lamang loob", it also has it bits of pork lean and is much more flavorful of pepper. This dish is a must-try not only for foreigners but also for non-Ilokanos.
The next time you pack your surf boards for up north, Midway Grill should not be passed up.
