Review of Atong Kamalig Restaurant (Dumaguete, Negros Oriental, Philippines)

Sizzling Sisig

Yesterday we were at the Atong Kamalig, near the sea and the pier. The place is popular with a nice ambience. We ordered Sizzling Sisig and Sizzling Squid. Sizzling Sisig is a traditional Filipino dish which is made of chopped pig's head parts (e.g. face, snout, cheeks, and ear) and chicken liver, usually served in a sizzling platter garnished with chopped onion, chili pepper, and slices of calamansi fruits. The sizzling squid is the same style but the main ingredient is squid.

Don't confuse Sizzling Pork with Sizzling Sisig!

The Sizzling Squid had a nice taste but it was too oily. The Sizzling Sisig on the other hand, where the ingredients were scraps from a pig head, was honestly not what I had expected. I had confused the Sizzling Sisig with the Sizzling Pork! My mistake though. The Sizzling Pork is a delicious dish made of chopped pork meat. Conclusion the Sizzling Sisig was not my cup of tea, lesson learned!
