Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina have never been to Iloilo . Tita Edna suggested using her Philippine Airlines mileage to deduct 9,000 miles for a round trip to Iloilo and pay taxes of about 3,000 pesos ($50.85). Mom Violy and Carmina decided to do the same. Two weeks later, we learned Bacolod was recently hit by a typhoon, leaving fewer places to visit, so we changed our plans to stay in Iloilo, paying an additional 2,057 pesos ($34.86) for January 6–9, with Tita Edna leaving one day earlier on January 8, 2026.  Tita Edna told us that she has a friend Beth who can pick us up from the airport.

New City Food House

 


My favorite dish from New City Food House is Sizzling Delight, a mix of vegetables cooked with quail eggs, fish cakes, shrimp, and fried chicken. I like to have the chicken added to the Sizzling Delight but prefer to eat it without the sauce. Price: PHP 440.00 ($8.80).



Chop suey is priced at PHP 110.00 ($2.20) for a small size or PHP 209.00 ($4.18) for a regular size. The food usually arrives in a plastic bag, similar to what you’d get from a Chinese restaurant in the Philippines. Upon receiving my order, I transferred it to a plastic container.


Crab Omelet small PHP 124.00 ($2.48) or Regular PHP 236.00 ($4.72) 


New City Food House is a combination of Chinese and Filipino dishes they cooked in the restaurant.
