Traditional Sweet Dishes
Leche flan
Cebu's leche flan is an ultra-silky custard made mostly from egg yolks and condensed milk, and its glossy caramel top is the hallmark of fiesta feasts across the island.
Otap
Otap is a paper-thin puff pastry cookie from Cebu, famous for its delicate, crackly layers and buttery sweetness that makes people buy it as a gift or souvenir.
Puto maya
Puto maya is warm sticky rice flavored with ginger and wrapped in banana leaves, traditionally eaten with hot sikwate for breakfast or after midnight mass.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Lechon
Cebu lechon is a whole pig roasted over charcoal until the skin turns paper-crisp, and its deeply seasoned, herb-stuffed cavity is what locals say makes the flavor legendary.
Puso
Puso are rice parcels steamed inside intricately woven coconut leaf pouches, designed so fishermen and travelers can eat rice on the go without plates.
Sutukil (grilled seafood)
Sutukil is the Cebu way to eat seafood, you choose fresh catch at the market then have it grilled, stewed, or cured as ceviche, so every meal is freshly tailored to your taste.
Traditional Beverages
Sikwate (chocolate drink)
Sikwate is a thick, frothy hot chocolate made from stone-ground cacao tablets called tablea, and it is traditionally paired with sticky rice or sweet pastries.
Tuba (palm wine)
Tuba is the slightly sweet, tangy palm wine made from freshly tapped coconut sap, enjoyed young for its effervescence or fermented into stronger spirits, and it features in many local celebrations.
Buko juice
Buko juice is the clear, slightly sweet water of young coconuts, prized across Cebu for instant hydration and a direct-from-shell freshness that is a beachside trademark.
