I am a proud Butuanon, I may not speak the local dialect however I take pride of my hometown. I grew up eating Tita’s Cafe’s siopao, buying school supplies at Sungold. Does anyone remember that fat cat at Busa Trading? Used to visit there with my classmates back in the day to buy the latest song hits. Oh Butuan, you make me miss you more and more.
One thing that makes me miss Butuan more other than the nostalgia and familiarity is seafood. It also pays to know that any time of the day, I can get fresh seafood at Langihan Public Market. I mean it, fresh fish EVERY-SINGLE-DAY. Thanks to geography, we are surrounded by neighboring cities like General Santos, Davao and Cagayan de Oro sending us produce and fish daily. Enjoying kinilaw, tinolang isda and sinugba just for no reason.
Baron’s has been around for 6 years now, they opened 2011. I left Butuan around 2010, I had little or no knowledge about Baron’s until I Googled the best things to do when I come home. How can someone local not know what’s the best spot to eat? How can something so familiar can be so strange? Ironic, isn’t it?
Baron’s offers Sashimi however when I arrived they said it was already sold out. Decided to get Tuna Kinilaw, Sinugbang Baboy, warm rice and a bottle of soda. Yes, that’s just for me! 🙂

I don't eat seafoods but I wont mind that sinugbang baboy. Looks yum! 😛
