I am your CDO Guide

This blog is about Cagayan de Oro food. Food that can be found, bought, dined, served, and eaten here in CDO. I will be your online CDO Guide when it comes to CDO Food.

Being a CDO Guide, I will tell you a little bit about the food, where it can be bought/found/eaten. I will share to you how much it would cost and how tasty or bad it may be.

Being born and raised here in Cagayan de Oro, I can say I can be one of the best CDO Guide there is. :D

I am a very proud member of CDOBloggers, Inc., a group who's aim is to help promote Cagayan de Oro and everything in it, on the internet.

Sea World Squid Rolls

Like any other cities here in the Philippines, Cagayan de Oro was also hit by Tempura/Fish Ball/Squid Ball/Squid Roll craze. The aroma of these when cooked is very much inviting. They have a long strip just outside Xavier University together with the new craze Kwek-Kwek and Chicken Skin. Even on the weekly night cafe's vendors are everywhere. We have tried and tasted alot of brands and this specific brand caught our taste buds. It doesn't have a weird aftertaste, nor does it taste bland. It's ingredients are perfect for us that everytime we cook this, we can't stop picking and putting it into our mouths. Here's how it looks like when it's cooked. If the picture was clearer you would usually see spring onions in it. So, it's not just all flour, they added some good stuff too. Here's Zaza taking a snack after doing some lots of coloring :) He too can't stop eating them when we serve this. 1 kilo pack costs 155-160php depends on where you buy them. ...

Binas-oy & Fried Kutob

Is what we had for lunch today and what we'll have for dinner tonight. Binas-oy or Bas-oy is a vegetable soup usually mixed with Malunggay (Horseradish Tree) , Alugbati (Malabar Nightshade) , Okra , Kalabasa (Squash) , Kamote Tops/Leaves , String Beans, Tanglad (Lemon Grass) , Kamatis (Tomatoes) , and Luy-a (Ginger) . Some mix it with more veggies and some with Fried/Grilled Fish but I like it this way and this is our recipe - actually my mom's , but I usually request that no fish be added so it'll only be just veggies. I usually have these cooked when I feel sick and it does work wonders. This is also highly recommended for lactating mothers and sickly children. Kutob is a common salt water fish that's always readily available in most wet markets here in Cagayan de Oro. Mom says there's no season for availability for this fish. I can't seem to find any picture of live Kutob nor information about it. I also forgot to take a photo before it was fried, i'll...

Tabas/Bilong-bilong/Chabita/Kadis (Moonfish) w/ Champorado

Tabas or Bilong-bilong or Chabita or Kadis - with English name Moonfish of the family Menidae is one of the available fishes here in Cagayan de Oro City and one of our favorites. It is colored silver and is usually cooked paksiw style in vinegar, ginger, and onions - but we love it deep fried cause you can eat every part of it. hehe. Here's some picture of it when cooked deep fried. And some pics of Mom's little assistant, Zaza , almost finishing them off, eating it together with Champorado / Tsamporado which is Sweet Chocolate Rice Porridge in English. Champorado is soft-boiled rice with cocoa powder or tablea (blocks of cocoa powder made from cacao beans) - Mom uses the latter cause she says it tastes much better. Tablea can also be used to make hot chocolate. Mom prefers the brand Maestrado Tablea from Mambajao, Camiguin - which is also available here in Cagayan de Oro City - because of it's "orig" taste. At the back of their packing is also steps ...
