Our Top Picks for Best Nachos in Davao

Leave a reply

It’s NACHOS DAY! To celebrate this day, we have prepared for you a list of the Best Nachos to try in Davao.

There is no popular authentic Mexican or Tex-Mex restaurant here in Davao. (If there is any you know of, let us know. Leave a comment down below.) But we do have a handful of restaurants and bars that offer nacho dishes. Given that most of these restaurants do not really make their own nacho chips. So we are recommending the best nacho dishes based on the quality of chips they use. We also love these dishes because of the toppings, dips, and sauces they are served with. The ratio of chips to everything else also matters. And yes, consistency of quality. And presentation.

Best Nachos in Davao List

Nachos by Batu Cafe

We love Batu Cafe‘s Nachos. The chips are served without any toppings but with three sauces on the side.

It’s like you can make your own perfect nacho. Our Editor Ria of KusinaMaria.com loves putting a bit of Chili con Carne and some Cheese Sauce on her nacho. Sometimes a chip with just the Tomato Onion Salsa is a great way to cut through the richness of the Cheese Sauce. There is a sauce for everyone.

You can also have the option to order more chips or more sauce.

These chips are our favorite to snack on while hanging out. Be it during the daytime or while drinking at night. Batu Cafe is open from 10 am to 1 pm so you can have these from morning to midnight.

Cheesy Nachos by Cafe Demitasse

Planning a meeting or want to work outside of your home? Go to Cafe Demitasse and order their Cheesy Nachos.

We love ordering this during meetings, hangouts, and basically just about any time we are at Cafe Demitasse.

Nachos. Beef. Cabbage and onions. Fresh tomatoes. Cheese sauce. Shredded Cheese. This is the perfect nachos platter to share. Or not? Eat it alone. We won’t judge you.

And you can ask them to remove the onions (as suggested by Ria, who is not a fan of raw onions) or any component you like. Or you can just have it one the side. We suggest asking for the cheese sauce served separately to avoid sogging. But hey, if you are going to eat this fast, no need to do that.

This goes great with Cafe Demitasse’s Iced Tea or beer. Yes, they serve beer.

Off the Menu by Lachi’s Sans Rival Atbp.

And here’s something we love but unfortunately can’t share yet.

Best Nachos in Davao: Off the Menu of Lachis

Lachi‘s does not serve this to the public so we apologize. And the star of this dish is Tomato Salsa. Tasty and tangy with a great balance of sour, salty, and sweet this Tomato Salsa is a must-try.

They served this to us during our events and special occasions. And we have been asking to have this on their menu. Or maybe Lachi‘s could be convinced to sell the salsa in bottles. Who knows, they might after we post about it. Repeatedly. Persistence pays off. We hope.

Sukidesu Davao Introduces New Menu Items

1 Reply

Love Japanese food but do not want to spend too much on it? You must try Sukidesu Davao. They serve popular Japanese cuisine dishes at affordable prices. Last August, Sukidesu Modern Japanese Cusine celebrated Kadayawan by introducing 3 new dishes that are filling yet budget-friendly.

New on the Menu: Spicy Ramen

First off, here’s something for those of you who love hot and spicy dishes.

One of our favorite noodle dishes in the city is Ajitama Ramen by Sukidesu Davao. It is tasty and costs only PhP99. The best ramen you can get for less than a hundred pesos. They also serve Chasu Ramen, Black Ramen, and Miso Ramen.

And now, they add Spicy Ramen to satisfy the cravings of those who want their ramen hot and spicy. Their Spicy Ramen has a rich flavorful broth and firm noodles. It is topped with pork, mushrooms, seaweed, and a delicate ajitama.

What makes it different is their super thick, super spicy sauce doused right on top of the pork chasu. And it is sprinkled with even more pepper. This ramen should come with a warning. It is definitely not for those with weak tastebuds. Sukidesu’s Spicy Ramen is definitely deliciously spicy. A bowl is priced at only PhP109.

Katsu Curry Bowls by Sukidesu Davao

But wait. There is more to satisfy your spice cravings. So much more.

If you like spice but ramen is not your thing, Sukidesu has three new Katsu Curry dishes for you to try. Each one is a steaming bowl of rice topped with meat, carrots, and potatoes. And all doused with rich, tasty, and savory curry sauce.
