Mom Violy Craving for Filipino Dishes from Seafood Island Restaurant

  Mom Violy wanted to eat crispy pata and pinakbet from Seafood Island Restaurant located in Cubao, Quezon City near the old Shopwise. We had arrived early being the first customers waiting for the restaurant to open. Few minutes later customers began entering the restaurant and we have already placed our order. Mom Violy ordered her crispy pata and pinakbet. Carmina ordered garlic butter shrimp since I don't eat crispy pata. Family member ordered calamari and shrimp fried rice. Everyone had a taste of our meals with leftovers to bring home. Watch my video  Running Errands in the Philippines . NOT SPONSORED.

Bagoong Shrimp Recipe


Let me explain what bagoong is made of fermented fish and Bagoong shrimp is made of shrimp paste with salt.

Why is bagoong shrimp color pink? When the bagoong fish and shrimp and mixed into with the salt the color changes into pink.

Bagoong shrimp my mom buys in Cabanatuan City located in the Public Market in front of the entrance across the street from the bakery.

Each sold individual for PHP 50.00 ($1.00)

(Price may vary)


It is best to cook the bagoong shrimp when it is newly purchased before it gets spoiled once it is fully cooked place in a Tupperware or jar to be place in the refrigerator.

People often eat bagoong shrimp with kare kare, rice, pinakbet, green mango and binagoongan.
