Tourists, this is something you should try. Sutukil transcends social status and money here in Cebu -- both the rich and poor enjoy dishes prepared this way. Check out Finding Paradise's Sutukil video.

Sutukil restaurants are usually found near the sea. Sutukil dishes are normall seafood, by the way. Common food options in these types of restaurants are grilled crabs, stewed prawns, pork belly, grilled fish, calamares, raw fish cooked in vinegar and more. Some also have halo-halo, a Filipino dessert or a sorbet to cool you from the heat of the day afterwards.

Be warned though, that some sutukil restaurants will try to rip you off -- especially if you are a foreigner without a local guide. Make sure you ask about the prices and note them down. Remember what you order and how it is cooked. It's better that way to avoid surprises.
