Top 6 BEST Restaurants to Check Out in Ormoc City: From A local’s Point of View

I am so excited to share with you, my readers, the top 5 best restaurants or food places that should be in your list when visiting my dear hometown – Ormoc City.

For starters, our city is located in the western part of the province of Leyte and is now called the “City of Beautiful People.” It is a first-class city and the largest city in Leyte by land area. It is approximately 104 kilometers away from Tacloban City – the capital of Eastern Visayas.

The people of Ormoc are called Ormocanons. Ormocanons are predominantly Cebuano-speaking or Bisaya together with the whole western part of Leyte island.
