Matias

Matias (Jun Jun and Malou’s) 
A.S. Fortuna st. Mandaue City, Cebu

It was the morning after drinking…and we all know how our stomach feels after it has ingested and absorbed every bit of that alcohol. We were really hungry! We called up the group and a unanimous “Matias ta part!” was uttered. So it was settled.

Parking in Matias

Matias is a restaurant that reflects the culture and lifestyle of the Cebuano people - very laid back and relaxed. When you get there, you are greeted by huge plumes of smoke from the coal that brings in the wonderful smell of well-cooked meat. The place seems like it’s right beside the beach especially with the sun burning at us coupled with a light tropical breeze. It was indeed a perfect day for BBQ.

You can order either pork BBQ, chicken, baticolon, atay, or puso matched with none other than puso - rice cooked inside a woven pouch made from coconut leaves.

Here is what we ordered.

You can never say you experienced Cebu without having to go to these types of restaurants – puso and BBQ on the street. 

Verdict:

- Gives you the ultimate Cebu vibe
- You will probably order more than you can handle =))
- Great BBQ!
