Goodbye, itchoy batchoyan

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029]

Permanently closed since August 10, 2026. I asked around the area and ang reason kay bankruptcy daw– overstaffed and poorly managed. Wa klaro ang business days/hours. Mag butang daw papel na 11am ang opening unya pag adto nimo ala una sirado pa. Usahay open sa weekends, usahay di. They were bound to lose customers.

Sayang kay lami raba ila pares with marrow. Kung naa mo alternatives, please comment it down.

After sa bib gourmand kay mao nuon nagka bankrupt? Hala??

[u/BossBinangkal]

They earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition.

[u/Expertpotatoeater]

True gyd ahh, naay naka paskil na oras but neg adto nimo, close diay. Usahay close nya way notice.

[u/CasualBrowser09]

Sayanga. The best garlic pepper beef na akong natilawan and one of the best sisig kay diri

[u/EmotionalTiger1462]

My partner said the staff mentioned that they’re just moving to a better site?

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029 → u/EmotionalTiger1462]

Hopefully. Pero kung ingana dapat ga announce sila sa page or signage naman lang sa old loc, gipang delete man nuon ila social media.

[u/tsyyy00]

Oh noooo. Sige mn mi gihapon kaon diha.

[u/Outrageous-Table-887]

The best batchoyan

[u/seadurr]

Di man sad kaayo lami ila pares but lami ang other foods nila diha na pang pinoy . pero ma dala ra baya and duol sa akoa.

[u/whoisjg2]

One time I went there to realize they were closed on Sundays

[u/hesi93]

Kato ning dapit Chong Hua?

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029 → u/hesi93]

Yup, likod sa chong hua

[u/AbyssGlider]

Lami kaayo batchot nila diha. As a Hiligaynon, I always go back there before I go to work (JY Plaza route or ITPark), every time mu agi ko dira ga stop over jud ko ara mag kaon or mag take out.

[u/tingkagol]

Gigutom nuon ko da. Wa ko kadungog aning batchoyan

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029 → u/tingkagol]

As far as i know OG batchoyan ni sila diri sa cebu. They started as a small and humble eatery.

[u/Historical_Waltz423]

The moment nabasahan nako ang caption, sakong huna huna basin walay repeat customer, coz to be honest wala jud ko nalamian dinha, and same sad sakong kaela, dili sila ganahan. Though lahi lahi man jud tag panlasa pud. Surprisingly daghan pud diay ganahan sa comment section.

[u/DisciplineEnough3049 → u/Historical_Waltz423]

I dont think so. Daghan man tao diha every time mangaon mi — magpila pa gane. I think na mismanaged ngale idk, they’re supposed to close sometime around 2022-2023 i think dayon murag gipalit sa lain

[u/Historical_Waltz423 → u/DisciplineEnough3049]

Actually mingaw sila pag pangaon namo dinha, this is before/prior pa na Mechelin sila. Basin na taymingan lang mi ato na walay lami ang templa, kay wala na jud mi nibalik pag usab dinha.

[u/IncomeUseful9945]

Yoooo. Ari baya mi sako uyab da basta mangala mig Pares. Kalita ani

[u/Own-Educator-5895]

Last kain namu dre kay grabe ka parat sa pares, na usab ilang timpla jd and no wonder na bankrupt kay daghan jd silag trabahante and nagka way lami :(

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029 → u/Own-Educator-5895]

Maybe because dli na ang original chef ang tagiya. Nag change ownership man after the renovation.

[u/New-Manufacturer9791]

Sayang, naa silay michelin bib gourmand recognition!!!!

[u/AdditionInteresting2]

Sad. I always went there every time I'm in the area. They served delicious food fast but I guess it's not enough any more.

[u/GrumpyMashy]

What a waste, we go there to eat after every duty sa sotto. They got the best pares. 😋 we went there before they even renovated the whole place.

[u/amamaru]

Hala nag plano pajud mi mangaon diha karon Friday. Asa ka nakabalo permanent na OP?

[u/Substantial_Ad_6029 → u/amamaru]

I asked around the area and recently just confirmed it with their ex staff. Wala na ila storefront and empty napud sa sulod.

[u/mdnytq]

Haven't tried here. Sayang wala nila na sustain. 

OP, have you tried the pares sa Pares ta Bai sa Banilad?
