Diotay's Famous Seafood Paluto and Paihaw in Bacolod
Diotay is the first seafood paihaw/paluto place that we visited when we were Bacolod, and I'm telling you it's one of those places you should not miss visiting! In case you don't have any idea of how it works, try remembering Dampa in Manila, the concept is quite similar.

We came to know this place via a recommendation of some locals we met, and we really thank them for introducing us to this must-visit place!
The interior of Diotay is festive, live and bright. It makes you feel like you are in a fiesta! This is something I really liked during the entire duration of my stay here in this restaurant.
Now, let's dig into the food shall we?
The sinigang had this playful kick that went well with the refreshingly awesome taste. It featured the characteristics of my ideal soup - clean, balanced and suave.
The squid was all fresh with its sweet savory sauce.
The shrimps had this sweet, buttery and garlicky that was uber flavorful! It was heavenly how fresh, tender and tasty the shrimps were.
I can't remember the name of the fish used to come up with this dish, but it was definitely fresh, juicy and tasty!
The underperformer of the night was the liempo which was still considerably smokey and tangy. What I failed to appreciate was its lack of tenderness. Don't get me so wrong because I found the taste still great!
That's mostly about it, so I hope you enjoyed reading this blog post. Of course, I do hope you were able to find this helpful as well.
