With the tagline "Dining Excellence in the Walled City,"  Ilustrado never failed to give me that awe and wonder and of course excellent dining experience.  It was my first time actually to have a full meal at Ilustrado, since before I've been here for short "dessert" meetings and press conferences.  Man, their food is awesome.  A little bit pricy, but worth the experience.

Walnut Rocca Salad

Honey Clamshell Pasta

Walnut Rocca Salad, Honey Clamshell Pasta from Terra Restaurant, Smallville, Iloilo City

One of my good friends, Jane, brought me to Terra, a mediterranean restaurant located in one of the hangout spots here in Iloilo City called Smallville.  We were so hungry when we got to the place that the Walnut Rocca Salad (photo above) was finished in under 5 minutes.  The Honey Clamshell Pasta, which is one of their bestsellers was good as well.  I love the ambiance of the place.  It's good for intimate dinners and great conversation with friends.  

Love it!
