Photos of Cafe Batwan

Batwan is a sour fruit that is widely known in the Western Visayas region as an essential ingredient for kansi (beef broth), tinola, sinigang and other dishes that need tartness or a certain spike in soupy dishes.

There was a time I had difficulty describing what it was to my friends in Manila, but that was then. It’s great to know that batwan is finally becoming more popular among the non-Ilonggos in the metropolis, especially now that Chef JPs Anglo of the Sarsa Group calls his brand of new food venture Kafé Batwan, in partnership with his sister Tracie Anglo Dizon. This contemporary café-cum-restaurant let stands proudly at the Joya Lofts and Towers in Rockwell Center, Makati City.
