Reviews Sangkap Filipino Restaurant

They served Filipino dishes with a twist. Their famous sinigang bagnet was so good. The sinigang soup was full of flavor. The tapa rice, the fried chicken, crispy hito and the tortang talong was equally good as well. Though I think their palabok needs some improvement because it’s a bit salty for my taste. But overall it was a good dining experience here.

Sangkap is a Filipino restaurant that promises to bring the rich flavors of the Philippines closer to our reach.

Sangkap by Chef Raymar Reyes is established in 2015, and is operated by The Menu Group. It currently has three branches in Metro Manila particularly in Portico Alveo Pasig, Vertis North in QC, and Vista Mall Taguig.

I first tried Sangkap during their Vertis North grand opening. I remember liking their Ivatan Kilawin so much. Since then I promised myself to return to try their other dishes. Fortunately last Saturday, I was invited to have a peek on its newest promotion – CEBU LECHON SINIGANG ALL YOU CAN.

For just 350php, one can enjoy unlimited servings of their best seller Cebu Lechon Sinigang which is known for its mango broth base. It also comes with unlimited rice, and bottomless iced tea. WHAT A STEAL!!! I found this deal value for money. Their version of Sinigang is very rich in flavor and has generous veggies. It also has a huge serving of Cebu Lechon with cripsy lechon skin and soft and tender meat. I actually attempted to consume 2 servings!

Their other best sellers were also served that day such as the following.

Ivatan Kilawin

Aside from their Cebu Lechon Sinigang, this dish is a must-try in Sangkap. The perfect blend of tanigue, shrimps, and squid mixed with coconut milk is just bliss in my mouth. It’s sour as expected for a kilawin, but not too much. It’s just right. It’s not overwhelming.

Zamboanga Adobong Baka sa Gata

Remembering Sangkap’s goal to bring the flavors of our country in their restaurant, this dish is their entry for Mindanaoan food. (Ivatan Kilawin – Luzon ; Cebu Lechon Sinigang – Visayas). This dish is surprisingly good. I loved how soft and tender everything was! I actually prefer Adobo as it is without gata, but their version is making me think otherwise.

Bistek

This is not your usual Bistek Tagalog as Sangkap’s version has liver and cow’s tongue with it. It’s kind of new to me, but it actually worked. The liver and tongue combination creates a texture of smooth and rough at the same time. The sauce itself is so tasty that it can be paired with rice already.

Chicken Pastel

This is another unique dish in this restaurant. They tried to be innovative by adding Spam, liver, and basil to the usual Chicken pastel. Think of cream and pesto. Yes? I love it too.

We were also served Stuffed Pusit and Inihaw na Talong during this visit but I was too full to give them a try. However their presentation of Inihaw na Talong is one of the best I’ve seen so far. Lastly, the feast was ended with their Halo-halo. It’s one of the biggest Halo-halo I’ve eaten and it’s only 160php and good for 4 people!

Overall, I truly enjoyed this visit in Sangkap. It’s good for family, friends, and even for big group of people such as officemates, and barkada. Definitely worth trying.

P.S. Their UNLIMITED Cebu Lechon Sinigang promo is available until April 30, 2018 for 350php. Again, it’s with unli rice and iced tea. PLUS PLUS PLUS! They offer additional 10% off the total bill if you use the code BLOGGERTHETRAVELLINGTONGUE. Yay!

Lomi - not that much noodles but a lot of ingredients. I find it tasty.

Tokwa’t baboy - the dip is too spicy! Perhaps they should decrease the heat level.

Sotanghon Miki noodles - this is very delicious, even as a leftover!

Their food is gooood! Serving size is also generous. The staff are very attentive as well. I deducted half a point because of the baby roaches crawling under and on the table!

Update: their chicharon bulaklak is way too salty. Their dinakdakan is kinda funky; not the way ilokanos do their dinakdakan for sure.

I seldom eat at Filipino restaurants unless its my favorite brands which I won't mention here.Because I have a principle of its no other different from other Pinoy themed restaurant.

Went to Pasig after having an appointment there ,we craved for some Filipino latelunch/merienda and as its less than 5 minutes walk we chose Sangkap.The place was predominantly decorated with wooden Pinoy fixtures and illustrations.Very cozy and pleasant ambiance.

We ordered pancit Malabon palabok and Lumpiang hubad,I'm amazed by the size of the servings every item must be consumed by two to four people.

The lumpiang hubad is very good ,nice heap of vegetables ,what impressed me is they used real coconut ubod and not the turnips/jicama unlike in other food houses,nice flavor of shrimp,generous toppings of garlic but if you don't want the garlic toppings just tell the server ahead of time.Special and hefty portion of lumpia for only Php130.

The pancit palabok can feed four,nice al dente rice noodles ,topped with shrimp flavored gravy,with squid ,shrimps ,tofu and instead of regular eggs they used quail eggs.A bounty of ingredients in a dish.

What in really like here is the price to serving ratio,good quality ingredients as in " Hindi Tinipid" a value for money,can be recommended if you want to bring your balikbayan families and friends or even foreigners this restaurant is a good place to represent our native cuisine.Super busog with the two dishes we ordered.

Friendly and welcoming staff,reasonable prices and quality food.Will come back for their Cebu lechon sinigang.

NOTE :OPENING HOURS IS 11am -2pm and 5pm onwards.

This is my first time to visit and experience the dishes from Sangkap. They boast in offering authentic Filipino dishes that are favorites in most households in the country. For Sangkap’s 2nd year, they are launching their Fiesta Packs (good for 12 pax) starting this November 11, 2017. This will be perfect specially for the coming holidays with all the parties and celebrations going on. And last Saturday, we got a preview of their Fiesta packs!

We celebrated the first ever #FoodBloggersHalloweenBall at Sangkap, Oranbo Pasig. We are ask to wear a Sangkap costume, don't ask what did I wore that day. Anyways It was fun talking to other foodie. Their Menu consist of the best classic pinoy recipe from Luzon to Mindanao. That night they served one dish from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

I attended a Halloween Ball last Wednesday at Sangkap Filipino Restaurant. And I was able to try some of the dishes of the said place.

We had the Salo set for 6 since we were 6 friends who dined in Sangkap one Thursday (before a holiday) night. It was a feast for only PHP 1750. I loved the cozy ambiance that felt like eating dinner at home. The food servings were more than enough as we had takeout from the sumptuous dinner. Personal favorites were the Kilawin, Adobong Baka sa Gata, Crispy Cebu Lechon Sinigang and the tri-color spring rolls with vanilla ice cream. We got intrigued with the Salo Halo-Halo, different from the usual - came in BIG serving and delightful mix of flavors. Looking forward to our next visit. On a personal note, the secret Sangkap is ❤️ because I felt it in how every dish was prepared and presented, much more when I tasted and savored every chew of it. 😍

Great take on Filipino food with a twist. Excellent versions of kinunot na hito, cebu lechon sinigang and chicken liver pate! The pate was really done well, with an accompanying side of caramelized onions; turned out to be my favorite of the night! Came with wonton chips and bread slices. The chicharon bulaklak was generous and freshly fried with a good balance of crunch and fatty goodness. We also had patatim, kare-kare and fried hito. Overall food was well executed.

Portions were fine - came in two sizes which is good. Service was quick and respectful.

We will come back!

Located at Portico in Oranbo Pasig, in front of Nipa Hut. I easily got a parking slot right in front of the resto but the establishment has parking space at the back. Sangkap serves Filipino dishes which comes from different parts of the country. Started our meal with Laing (Bicol) Malutong which was Laing wrapped in wrapper then fried. It wasn't too spicy which was good since I don't really enjoy spicy food. Our mains were mostly pork dishes. Bagnet (Ilocos) Kare-kare (Pampanga), Binagoongang Bagnet (Negros) and Cebu Lechon Sinigang. The Ginataang Hipon With Sitaw and Kalabasa was my fave. For dessert, we had Tri Color Spring Rolls which was really just turon with 3 different sauces. It's usually served with vanilla ice cream but thanks to the part owner, who is a friend, we got the Palitaw ice cream instead. It was so good, you could distinctly taste the malagkit rice and sesame flavor. Their calamansi ice cream was also good, if you like Yakult. The staff was attentive in refilling the water and gracious enough to take our pictures. I would recommend for get together with balikbayans since they can get to taste a variety of Filipino local dishes without having to tour the country.

Crispy laing, lechon sinigang & kare kare, palitaw sorbetes. Memorable. Uulit ultiin i must say. Served fast, felt faster than advised 15mins. So easy to find the location was also next door to equally interesting businesses in case. Babalik for the other refreshed Pinoy faves like Lomi

Nice Pinoy food resto and great simple setting. Food was okay, probably ordered wrong so will still go back to try some of their other dishes. We got surprised with the serving size of the pares, the others were small and just right. Need to go back to try more! Pretty cozy interior otherwise and nice place to hang out.

Hello everyone! After almost a week of not being able to write about our recent EATS, we finally had time to write about one of our EATSperiences last month. We were able to visit one of the newest restaurants in Portico – Pasig, Sangkap by Chef Raymar Reyes. Sangkap means “ingredient” in Filipino, as the restaurant features all sorts of dishes with ingredients that highlight the different regional flavors of the Philippines. Because of that, we tried a number of Sangkap’s bestselling dishes from the different parts of the Philippines. Dishes that are truly Filipino with a twist. Find out if it all worked out well or not as you EATSperience Sangkap through our taste buds. Here goes our much-awaited Sangkap EATSperience, enjoy!

Sangkap is a combination of great ambiance, good service and delicious Filipino food with a twist that is sure to tickle your tastebuds. I love their Binagoongang Bagnet & their Bagnet kare-kare cooked just the way I like it, their Sinigang is different from what I am used to but it is something I would recommend because even my children who are picky eaters loved how it tastes, and I also love their palitaw flavored ice cream. If you're tired of the usual Filipino dishes, head on to Sangkap and try out the signature dishes by Chef Raymar.

Definitely one of the best Filipino restaurants out there, hands down!! Chef Raymar puts a unique twist in classic, well-known Pinoy cuisine and the result is something both flavorful and homey. Favorites include Ivatan Kilawin, Binagoongang Bagnet, Pork Belly Sinigang (with mango broth!) - but literally everything, down to the drinks and desserts - are a must-try.

A different dining experience awaits you as Chef Raymar of Sangkap in Oranbo, Pasig makes a modern take on classic Filipino dishes. With every bite of the unique dishes he cooks, you will be reminded of your mom's home-cooked meals, but prepared the modern way. Probably even made more flavorful.

When you get to Sangkap, you better try out their Ivatan Kilawin, which is fresh seafood in spiced vinegar. Also a must try is their chicken adobo pate, which is a unique take on the classic adobo. Their Cebu lechon belly sinigang, which consists of the much raved about meat from Cebu, is also worth trying, as well as their two versions of kare-kare pork belly and the beef head to tail, which were both prepared with a twist.

As for Sangkap's desserts, get ready to be fascinated with their artisanal ice cream. They have four flavors namely, champorado, which had a nice balance of sweet and bitterness; Bicol express, which had a nice kick of spice to it; calamansi flavor, which had the right amount of sourness; and palitaw, which is my favorite flavor of them all. Its taste just lingers in your mouth.
