Halal is a term that pertains to any object of action that is in accordance to the Islamic law. Here in Davao City, food establishments are required by law to serve Halal food, and to prominently post on their premises that they serve Halal food.
The Davao City Council has tasked the Davao City Muslim Ulama Halal Certifying and Monitoring Agency to accredit Davao City food establishments to ensure that they follow the strictest sanitary procedures and to ensure that they are indeed serving Halal certified food.

For the Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2009 (DFAT 2009), our first stop was Tadakuma Japanese Restaurant. It was Davao’s first chance to impress our blogger guests from Manila. And they (me also) were definitely not disappointed.
A reader emailed me to ask for a recommendation. He was asking for a nice comfy restaurant here in Davao City where one could have a nice, private romantic dinner. Only one place came to mind: CLAUDE’S. Although there are a lot of good restaurants here in Davao City, Claude’s is the only one with a more private setting where one can dine in relative silence. The ambiance is perfect for intimate dinners.
