For good seafood, head for Baybay, which means “shore” in the native tongue, three kilometers (a10-minute, Php25/US$0.52 tricycle ride) in the general Northern direction from the city proper. Here, a good stretch of beach is fronted by a smattering of freestanding restaurants, and smaller stalls at the Seafood Plaza. 



At Coco Veranda, also known as the Garden
  Capital of the Western Visayas.”

Today, the tanks are filled with the usual suspects: crabs, lobster, an assortment of fish, and large prawns. Meanwhile, the tables are quickly being filled up with the lunchtime crowd of businessmen, families and local tourists. Their signature dish is the seafood kare-kare (a steal at Php200/US$4.20 per serving), a Roxas twist on the peanut-sauce based stew: Instead of oxtail and offal, dig into tanguigue (mackerel), cream dory fillet, scallops, and mussels.
