Pagudpod FoodPAGUDPOD FOOD Pagudpud or Pagudpod as its often called is a perfect place to chill out and relax. Famous for the pristine white sands of Saud Beach and its almost un-commercialized, so it’s perfect for a real getaway, come visit before everyone else finds out! It didn’t get selected as Asia’s best beach for nothing! As the there are no bars except in the various hotels and resorts, and not many restaurants so most food is eaten within the various resorts and most offer very reasonable food at economical prices. There a few economical eateries along the road but not many and prices are reasonable. The prices vary from cheap to very expensive as are the quality of the meals, with some travel sites slamming some of the restaurants but one bad experience doesn’t mean it’s always so. Slow service is a key complaint and this is a major problem in the main tourist season There is plenty of fresh seafood to be had everywhere and fresh lobster is good value. You can buy fresh seafood on the beach front every morning where you can get freshly caught fish, squid and lobsters. The lobsters are cheap at around 280-350 pesos per kilo (that’s USD$7 per kg or $3 per pound!). ROCKY’S EATERY Come and try some of my Tita Helen’s unpretentious and honest Ilocano home cooking, right on main road near Saud Municipal beach entrance, its good value and delicious, tell her John and Jane sent you!
