Food is a highlight of any trip to Tuguegarao. The city is famous for Pancit Batil Patung, a hearty noodle dish topped with egg and rich sauce. You should also try Chicharabao, a crispy snack made from carabao skin, and Tuguegarao longganisa, which has a garlicky and slightly sour flavor distinct from other Filipino sausages. For dessert, locally made milk candies and native kakanin are worth tasting.
