Pinikpikan is served with salad, dessert, and bottomless citrus water; in generous servings.


I rate this dish 8 out of 10. It's like a tinolang manok with rich and salty broth.



Pinikpikan originally was not just a process for a dish, it was part of a tribal ritual in Cordilleras. Nowadays, pinikpikan chicken is prepared for special occasions and gatherings. Most restaurants in Sagada serve pinikpinan.


Pinikpikan comes from the Ilocano word, “pikpik”, which loosely means “to hit repeatedly”.


PRICE:

P240.00


Cons: The preparation for this dish took some time.


WHERE TO BUY:

Sagada Brew, South Road,

Sagada, Mountain Province
