When Mom Violy wanted seafood, one name kept popping up: Breakthrough Restaurant. Would it live up to the hype?

After a road trip and exploring the area, Mom Violy requested some seafood and was given a recommendation to dine at  Breakthrough Restaurant . When we entered the restaurant, we saw it was bustling with customers, and Mom Violy asked for a table by the window to enjoy the beach view . The server informed us that we needed to place our order at the counter and choose the seafood to be weighed, similar to the process at Dampa . Tita Edna was busy snapping photos, while Carmina was filming as Mom Violy placed her order. Breakthrough isn’t air-conditioned, but they provide electric fans at your table for comfort. Mom Violy wanted sinigang and was deciding which kind of fish to have with her soup. Mom Violy requested the crab and shrimp to be cooked in butter and garlic. Mom Violy also ordered adobong pusit (squid). Tita Edna placed her own order, which was kilawin na dilis . Carmina wanted fresh lumpia , but since it wasn’t available, she opted for pinakbet instead. Everything seeme...

Carmina's Review on Tetay's sa Balanghay

The restaurant we often eat in Dampa Seaside is being renovated.

Pia had approached us in the parking area. Pia noticed by the look of my face and informed that she is now working for Kainan Sa Balanghay.

Pia brought us inside Kainan Sa Balanghay. Mom Violy began talking to Pia asking her to assist us to shop inside the public market.

The family members who are visiting had informed us what they wanted to eat by looking at the menu.

Pia had assisted us to the nearest public market purchase lobster, shrimp, squid and fish.

They had suggested the best way to cook the lobster steam with hot chili sauce to dip.


Butter and garlic cooked for the shrimp and crabs.


Grilled pompano was served with grilled squid stuffed with tomatoes and onion dipping sauce was vinegar or soy sauce with calamansi.



When you're a visitor they want to eat something combined with green mango, tomatoes and onion a popular salad in the Philippines usually dip with bagoong. 

Calamari is something we usually get not just an appetizer.

Mom Violy also had her cravings along with our seafood. Mom Violy's favorite is sinigang fish with miso and pinakbet.


After our lunch when we are no longer hungry decided to take our photos along with the owner Merlie and Pia who served us.



Those who plan to eat at Tetay's sa Balanghay can contact Merlie M. Ramos giving us her business card.
