Flavors of Ilocos: A Steak Lunch at Hotel Luna's Comedor

When you suddenly have a serious craving for premium beef while in Vigan, that's no problem. No problem at all. Hotel Luna's got you covered. With a wide selection of premium steaks, lamb, and pork at Hotel Luna's Comedor, Chef Raymond Quitilen has that perfect cut to satisfy your craving.  

Hotel Luna offers a variety of steaks, from USDA Prime, USDA Certified Angus Beef, American Wagyu and American "Kobe Style" Beef from Snake River Farms and Philippine Wagyu Beef from Bukidnon's Kitayama Farms. And the various steak cuts include a 34 oz Porterhouse that's great for sharing, a 20 oz bone-in Ribeye, a 20 oz New York Sirloin, a 20 oz T-Bone, a 16 oz Filet Mignon, an 8 oz Petit Cut Filet Mignon, and a 12 oz Ribeye. Other choices include an 8 oz Loin Rack French Cut New Zealand Lamb, 12 oz Shoulder Loin Chop, and organic pork chops in 16 oz Double Chop and 8 oz Single Chop. If you have a serious craving for premium beef, Hotel Luna's Comedor is definitely the place in Vigan.

I go for the Philippine Wagyu 12 oz Ribeye Steak from Kitayama Farms (P 1,800), grilled medium rare  for that juicy pink center. A light char on the outside contrasts with the tender and juicy, well marbled beef that's just so good, you don't need any sauce at all.

The fine marbling and tiny specks of fat just add so much flavor, with that rich beefy flavor you expect from premium Wagyu beef. And Kitayama Farms' corn-fed beef has got to be the best local premium beef. Simply grilled and seasoned with salt and pepper, you don't need much for beef this good.

If you have a sudden craving for premium beef while in Vigan, rest easy. You can choose your premium cut at Hotel Luna's Comedor for a real premium steak fix. Just ask Melvin or Chef Raymond Quitilen of Hotel Luna's Comedor for the freshest cut available for the day, and they'll grill it to your desired degree of doneness. Or simply leave ot to Melvin and Chef Raymond to make a recommendation.
