Got coconut milk?

There’s no shortage of bulalohans, lechonans, or inasal houses in the city so, if you’re a Bicolano in Metro Manila, it becomes glaringly obvious how underrepresented the cuisine of the Bicol Region is. When Marian began to miss the dishes she grew up with, she took matters into her own hands and opened Gata.

Despite not having prior experience in the restaurant industry, Marian decided to go for it equipped with just her family’s recipes and Chef Alan Caquilala in the kitchen. They are proud of their “lutong bahay feel” favoring authenticity and quality over variety of dishes.

Fun Fact: The wall features a mural with the Bicolano words for "welcome" (dagos), "good day" (marahay na aldaw), and "thank you" (dios mabalos).

From the food to the modern interiors, Gata is proudly Bicolano. The accents are made of abaca, which happens to be the #1 export of the province. Most, if not all the ingredients for their dishes are sourced from Bicol. They make it a point to support small independent suppliers.

Gata’s best-sellers include their adobong Bicol, kare-kareng bagnet, and okoy, which they serve with authentic sukang tuba from Bicol. It goes without saying, Gata uses fresh and real coconut milk in all their dishes. Don’t miss these mouthwatering must-tries:
